Many years ago,I owned a service station and roadhouse on the main road between Melbourne and Adelaide.

One very cold,wet night at about 3:30 a.m.,there was a    1on the front door of our house.A young man,wet from      2to toe,explained that he had      3out of petrol about 30 km up the road.He had left his pregnant(懷孕的) wife and his two children    4at the car and said that he would hitchhike(搭便車(chē)) back.

Once I had    5a can with petrol,I took him back to his car where his two-year-old and four-year-old children were both    6,saying that they were cold.Once the car had started,I suggested that he    7me back.

Before leaving,I had turned the heater    8in the roadhouse,so that when we went in,it was nice and    9.While the little ones played and ran    10,I prepared bread and butter for the children,and hot chocolate for the    11.

It was about 5 a.m. before they   12.The young fellow asked me how much he    13

me and I told him that the petrol pump(加油泵) had    14$15.He offered to pay “call-out fee”,but I wouldn’t accept it.

About a month later,I received a    15from Interstate,a large bus company that we bad been trying to    16to stop off at our roadhouse for a long time.It    17out that the young fellow I had helped was its general manager,the most    18person in the company.

In his letter,he thanked me again and    19me that,from then on,all their buses would stop at my service station.In this    20,a little bit of kindness was rewarded with a huge amount of benefits.

There are a few memories from our childhood that will stay with us forever. A few that seemed so    36    at the time may cause us to smile years later.

     One such memory is a phone call I    37    when I was about three or four years old. My mother had entered a contest on a local    38    show. Entrants(參加者)were to tell an interesting story about their    39   . Winners would receive a phone call from Mrs. Santa Claus(女圣誕老人)! Mrs. Claus would award(獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)) the lucky child free    40    of a local store.

     Well, the call came. My mother talked to Mrs. Claus and then    41    the phone to me. I didn’t    42    the fact that many people were listening to our conversation. However, the fact that this lady had a    43    connection to Santa, that was important.

     I didn’t know it yet, but my mother had    44    the attention of the contest judges by telling about the time I had    45    a wall with crayons(蠟筆). Even I knew that this was not the kind of    46    that Santa would approve.

     Suddenly, in a very pleasant tone(語(yǔ)氣)of    47   , Mrs. Santa Claus asked me about my art work. I    48    that this lady was the real Mrs. Claus, not a radio station actress standing in for her.

     I    49    down the phone and ran crying from the room. My crime(罪行)had not    50    unpunished. Santa would    51    know that I’d been bad!

     It turned out that I did get a    52    present from the radio station and its sponsor(贊助商). And I guess Santa didn’t find out about the wall. Maybe he did and was in a    53    mood. In any case, my Christmas presents did not    54    a piece of coal(煤).

     I wonder what Santa has in    55    for this year. Hopefully my wife hasn’t written Mrs. Claus any letters.

I recently heard a story about a famous scientist who had made several very important medical breakthroughs. He was being interviewed by a reporter who asked him    36   he thought he was able to be so much more    37   than the average person.

He    38   that it all came from a(n)   39   with his mother that occurred when he was about 2. He had been trying to remove milk from the fridge when he    40   the slippery(光滑的) bottle, its contents running all over the kitchen floor.

When his mother came in,    41   shouting at him or giving him a lecture, she said, "Robert, what a great and wonderful    42   you have made! I have    43   seen such a huge pool of milk. Well, the damage has already been    44  . Would you like to get down and    45   in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?"

Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said, "Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to    46   everything to its proper order. So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge(海綿), a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer?" He chose the sponge.

His mother then said, "You know, what we have here is a    47   experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two    48   hands. Let's go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can make it." The little boy learned that if he    49   the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it. What a wonderful    50  !

This scientist then remarked that it was at that moment that he knew he didn't need to be    51  to make mistakes. Instead, he learned that mistakes were just    52   for learning something new, which is,    53  , what scientific experiments are all about. Even if the experiment "doesn't   54  ," we usually learn something    55   from it.

It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.

“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just   1  in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We’ve called for a (n)   2  and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.”

Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was   3 .

The doctor described the accident, which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers. When they   4  the charcoal (木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed (噴灑) too much gasoline (petrol). The flames   5  my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to his head.

When I began my high school years, I was quite interested in biology. I read lots of books of my father’s about animals, and I was   36   much educated about such matters as a 16-year-old could be.

    One Sunday afternoon, I was   37  with friends about animals. I said the whale(鯨魚(yú))was   __38  a mammal animal. They disagreed. Finally, I called a   39   over to help settle the matter. I knew I was  40  , so I was looking forward to the teacher  41   I was right. My friends were eager for an opposite answer. We asked her   42  the whale was a mammal. “No, the whale is a fish,” she said without a moment’s   43  .

You could have knocked me over with a feather. My   44   was hurt because I lost the argument, but that wasn’t the main reason I was too  45  to speak. I still knew I was right, which   __46  the teacher was wrong. Not only was she wrong,   47   she was completely ignorant(無(wú)知的) about something I thought was   48   knowledge. But she was a teacher who had taught a long time. Everyone   49   her and no one else thought she could be wrong.

__50  that, I hadn’t known grown-ups could be wrong. This   51  shaped the way I viewed people as I grew up.   52   I found anyone treated another person with too much respect and admiration, I thought——and still think——“   53   silly.” From that point on, I had no  54__ for authority(權(quán)威). To earn my respect, you have to be smart or  55   . I’ll never respect you just because you happen to be in charge or have a degree.
