I first 1 a boy under the tree on the first day of camp. His obvious 2 and shyness made him
appear weak and lonely. Nearby, 200 3 campers were playing and joking, but the boy seemed to
want to be anywhere 4 where he was.
I was instructed to care more about campers who might feel 5 . So I 6 him and said, "Hi, I"m
Kevin. It"s nice to meet you. How are you?"
7 a shaky voice he 8 answered, "Okay, I guess."
I calmly asked him to join in the activities and 9 some new people. He quietly replied, "No, this is
not really my thing."
I could 10 that this whole experience was 11 to him. But I somehow knew it wouldn"t be right
to 12 him, either. It was going to take more time and 13 .
The next day, I was leading camp songs for the campers. They eagerly participated. But the boy was
just sitting alone, 14 out the window.
That evening at our nightly staff meeting, I made my 50 about him known. I asked them to pay
special attention and spend time with him 51 they could.
The days flew by fast. When the "last dance" came, surprisingly, the boy from under the tree was now
a shirtless dancing 52 . He owned the dance floor 53 meaningful time with others. I couldn"t" believe
it was him.
In that instant, I realized how easy it is to give a bit of 54 every day. You may never know how
much each gesture may mean to someone else. I tell this story as 55 as I can, and I advise others to
look out for their own "boy under the tree."

They called to the Marie for 1 , but she was far 2 the reach of the human voice. At one o"clock in the morning, the water was getting 3 , and a strong 4 had begun to blow. Suddenly 5 were seen in the distance; another ship! The shouts of the swimmers were heard on board, and willing hands pulled them out of the water. The 6 of the ship that had so fortunately arrived on the scene in time to 7 their lives was the Ellen. What had brought her to the exact spot through the 8 and the pathless sea? Her captain had known 9 about the wreck (沉船) and had indeed tried to sail away from it. But let him speak for himself. "I was forced by the wind," he said long afterwards, "to 10 my course (航道). Just as I did it, a small 11 flew across the ship once or twice and then 12 at my face. I took no 13 of this until exactly the same thing happened at a 14 time, which caused me to think it rather 15 , and while I was thus 16 it, the same bird for the third time, made its appearance and flew 17 in the same way as before. I was then 18 to change my course back to the original (原来的) one. I had not gone far 19 I heard strange noises; and when I tried to 20 where they came from, I found I was in the middle of people who had been shipwrecked. I immediately did my best to save them. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
