She kissed him and stood up. "Here," she said, "I’ll leave one of these pencils on 52 desk so you’ll remember that everybody makes mistakes, 53 teachers." Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and a smile.
The pencil became Donnie’s 54 possession. That, together with Mary Anne’s frequent encouragement, gradually 55 him that it’s all right to make mistakes — as long as you erase them and try again.

Angels
My friend Heather mentioned that she had never seen an Angel. Then I remembered the36I had with my sister Sandra earlier this week.
This will be Sandra’s first Christmas without her husband. This summer he died in her arms. On Thursday, she was in the store 　37　 for an ideal card for her two sons and daughter. Time passed by quickly as she 　38the many choices. She wanted a card that sent something special to each of them, 　39 she knew they would have a(n) 　40 place in their heart this holiday season.
Finally! She found the one that expressed the 　41feeling. The words expressed the feelings that she wished to share. However, a sharp pain pierced(穿透) her heart when she realized that the card was 　42“mom and dad.” She stood there, 　43 it close for a long time, unable to move from the 　44 . Tears began to run down her cheeks.
“Is there something I can do for you?” a 　45 voice asked. She 　46 to face a stranger, a woman, who was looking at her with 　47 and concern. “Uh…oh...OH!” Sandra responded, “I can’t give this card to my children because…because my husband died and this is the 　48 card.”
Hearing this, the stranger’s face softened with sympathy(同情) and love. She reached out and　49 my sister into her arms, giving her unspoken permission to cry in the protection of her embrace(拥抱). She 　50 held my sister until her calmness　51 . “Thank you for listening to me cry on,” was what my sister said when all was better. “You are welcome, and I am so sorry for your 　52,” the stranger answered and said goodbye to her.
During her telling of this event I was feeling 　53 that I hadn’t been there. My sister needed me and a stranger had to do my 　54 . “You know,” she went on, “a friend suggested that it was like meeting with an Angel.” My 　55 disappeared in an instant. My sister required an Angel, and I think that is exactly what she got.

Little Chad was a shy, 21 young man. One day he came home and told his mother that he’d like to make a Valentine for everyone in his class. Her heart sank. She thought, “I wish he 22 do that！” because she had 23 the children when they walked home from school. Her Chad was always 24 them. They laughed and 25on to each other. But Chad was never 26 . However, she decided she would 27 with her son. So she bought the paper and glue and crayons(蜡笔). For three weeks, night after night, Chad painstakingly made 35 valentines.
Valentine’s Day 28 , and Chad was 29 himself with excitement. He carefully put them in a bag and walked out of the door. His mother decided to bake him his favorite cookies and 30 them nice and warm with a cool glass of milk when he came home. She just knew he would be 31 and maybe that would ease(减轻) the pain a little. It hurt her to think that he wouldn’t get many valentines-maybe 32 at all.
That afternoon she had the cookies and milk on the table. When she heard the children outside, she looked out of the window. Sure enough, 33 they came, laughing and having the 34 time. And, as 35 , there was Chad at the back. He walked a little faster than usual. She 36 expected him to burst into 37 as soon as he got inside. His arms were 38 , she noticed, and when the door opened she choked back the tears.
“Mommy has some cookies and milk for you,” she said.
But he hardly heard her words, he just 39 right on by, his face aglow(满面红光), and all he could say was, “Not a one. Not a one.”
Her heart sank.
And then he added, “I didn’t forget a one, not a 40 one!”
