The last 1 I had to take was Sociology and the last project of the term was called "Smile".
The class was asked to go out and smile at three people and note down their 2 .
Soon after we were 3 the project, my husband, youngest son and I went out to McDonald"s.
We were standing in line, waiting to be 4 . When all of a sudden everyone around us began to
back away. As I turned around, I smelled a 5 "dirty body" smell and there 6 me stood two
poor homeless men. As I looked down at the short gentleman close to me, he was " 7 " - his
beautiful sky blue eyes were full of the light as he searched for 8 .
He said "Good day" as he 9 the few coins he had been holding. The young lady at the counter
asked him what they wanted. He said, "Coffee is 10 , Miss," because that was what they could
afford. To sit in the restaurant and 11 up, they had to buy something.
Then I really felt it - the 12 was so great that I almost reached out and embraced the little man
with the blue eyes. That was when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were 13 me, judging my
every action. I smiled and asked for two more breakfast meals on a 14 tray. I then walked to the
table that the men had chosen as a 15 spot, put the tray on the table and laid my hand on the blue
eyed gentleman"s cold hand. He looked 16 at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, "Thank you." I
patted his hand and said, "I did not do this for you. God is here working 17 me to give you hope."
I returned to college with this story in hand. I 18 "my project" and later the instructor read it to
the class. In this way I had 19 my classmates and the people around me. And I graduated with one
of the most meaningful lessons in my life - 20 acceptance.

When Siva Kalyan was born, his backbone was deformed(畸形的)resulting in a lifelong difficulty in walking. But that hasn"t stopped the nine-year-old from becoming a prodigy(天才). Until he was three-and-a-half years old, Siva could not even crawl. Wanting the best treatment for their son, Siva"s parents moved with him from India to Australia and later to the USA. In the USA, his parents enrolled(使入学)him in the second grade based on his age. But his teachers soon realized they had a genius. Siva was then tested for the eighth grade, but it was soon found out that he was actually qualified for college courses. As one advanced course was not enough, the brilliant boy is now taking two courses from Stanford University. Due to the treatment he received, Siva"s physical condition has improved as well. But none of this "just happened". It was his parents" understanding and correct guidance, and the loving care of his grandparents that contributed to the growth of the genius. Siva"s highly educated and hardworking family has brought him up on the basis of certain principles. The family believes that once a strong foundation is built for the child in English and mathematics, the child is equipped to master any other subject, law, history, or engineering. It is equally important to recognize the strengths of a child rather than forcing the child to do things that he may not want to do. Siva"s parents helped. Siva focus his energies on his strength, which is mathematics. At the same time they took care to see that he had friends to play with and enjoyed a few recreational activities. The only activity that"s restricted for Siva is viewing television. Siva watches TV only for 30 minutes a day and video games are a bonus for special occasions. Thanks to his mother who is a singer, Siva has also learned music and even won the first and second prize at two competitions. In sports, he likes to swim. He began to learn swimming to strengthen his muscles, and by the age of eight he was able to swim a kilometer in both the backstroke and the freestyle. | ||||||

When I was 17 years old I had surgery because of a disease. The day after the surgery, I awoke to find a friend of mine sitting in a chair across from my bed. I don"t remember much about his visit. But I will not forget that he visited me on that day, and sat there for I don"t know how long, while I was under the influence of a morphine drip(输液). We benefit greatly from our close friendships, but they are not a matter of calculable gain or loss. Our age, what we might call the age of economics, is strongly influenced by two types of relationships that reflect the lives we are encouraged to lead. There are consumer relationships, those that we participate in for the pleasure they bring us. They are focused on the present. It is what brings immediate pleasure that matters. And there are entrepreneurial(商业的)relationships, those that we invest in, hoping they will bring us some return. Aristotle thought that there were three types of friendship: those of pleasure, those of usefulness, and true friendship. In pleasure friendships, he said, "It is not for their character that men love ready-witted people, but because they find them pleasant." About the usefulness friendships, he said, "Those who love each other for their utility(效用)do not love each other for themselves, but because of some good which they get from each other." Although we benefit from our close friendships, these friendships are not a matter of calculable gain and loss. Consumer pleasures are lasting for only a limited time. They surround us for a short period and then they fade, like a drug. Entrepreneur friendship, when successful, leads to the victory of personal gain. It is precisely this non-economic character that is threatened in a society in which each of us is offered only the choices of ownership, shopping, competition and growth. It is threatened when we are led to believe that friendships without obvious recognizable gain are, in the economic sense, irrational(不合理的). Friendships are not without reason, perhaps, but they are certainly without that particular reason. Shared experience, not just everyday amusement or advancement, is the true basis of friendship. | ||||||

Having lived in the house for so long, we found our kitchen looked old. We decided it was time to 1 the kitchen, and my husband and I were discussing 2 colors. The children, sitting nearby, suddenly all spoke together: "Not the measuring stick." "No," I 3 them. "Not the measuring stick." The measuring stick isn"t a (an) 4 stick but the kitchen side of the door between our kitchen and dining room. Along the edge we"ve 5 each child"s growth by making a mark showing his or her 6 on every birthday. Over the years so many colored pens, pencils and markers have been used, that now, this white door is somewhat like an abstract painting. Names and dates show different 7 , and I can tell by the script(手迹) who measured whom. An eight-year-old measured her three-year-old sister, a grandchild measured her grandmother, my husband measured me. At the parties, when this door 8 back and forth frequently, friends stop to 9 the names and dates. When we ask if they would like to be always remembered, they usually smile 10 and go back right up into place, 11 to be measured. Many of those listed on the door are still 12 ; some have stopped. Some remain with us only in 13 . When my mother came to see my eldest daughter graduate from university, we measured her too. It was her last visit to our home. We haven"t 14 the new kitchen color plan yet, but one thing is certain: whatever color we choose, the back of the kitchen door will always remain 15 , with lots of names and dates in various colors. | ||||||
