37. I have kept the book ________. I have to return it to the library now.

The day was like any other day in his life. Tom walked past the shop on the street corner. He stopped to look at the front row of shoes, and he felt     42     to see that the pair of shoes he wanted very much was     43     there. Looking down, he felt sorry for himself. He really wanted to have them for his birthday.

He     44     walked away and thought about how to tell his mother about it. He knew if she could, she would give him anything he wanted. But he also knew very well that she had little money. He decided not to go home at once. If he looked     45    , his mother would notice it. So he went to the park and sat on the grass. Then he saw a boy in a wheelchair. He     46     that the boy was moving the wheels with his hands. Tom looked at him carefully and was shocked to see that the boy had no feet. He looked at his own feet. “It’s much better to be without shoes than without feet,” he thought. There was no reason for him to feel sorry or sad. He smiled, thinking he was much luckier than the boy without feet.

Here is the content (目录) of a book.

A man named Mr. Smith was flying from San Francisco to L.A. The plane stopped in Sacramento along the way.

The flight attendant (空中乘务员) said that there would be a delay (延误) and that passengers could _________ the plane if they wanted to have a rest. She told them that re-boarding would start in an hour. Everybody left their seat, except one woman.

Mr. Smith had noticed her as he walked by. He could tell that the _________ woman had flown before because her seeing-eye dog had lain quietly under the seats in front of her during the flight.

Mr. Smith could even tell that she had flown on this very flight before because the pilot came to her and called her Cathy. The pilot said to the woman, “We are in Sacramento for an hour. Would you like to stretch (伸长) your legs?”

Cathy replied, “No, thanks, but maybe the dog would like to stretch his legs.” Now,_________ this: All of the passengers at the gate area became silent when they saw their pilot leaving the plane with the seeing-eye dog! He was even wearing glasses. All of the passengers _________ went to the service desk. They all wanted to _________ planes and airlines. What a huge misunderstanding this was!

Some people collect all kinds of paintings, drawings and photographs. Others collect goods such as balls, cards and clothes from their favorite shops. It seems e    67     to start a collection, but how do you become a smart collector? Here are several rules for you to follow.

● E    68     things you collect

● Learn to become an expert (专家)

Read a lot of books about the things you collect as well as visit many m    70    . Go to different markets and talk to antique (古董) experts there. Feel free to ask them a lot of questions. Don’t worry! Experts love to talk and share.

Rare things are more valuable than common (常见) ones. I    71     the things you collect are rare today, they will be more valuable in the future.

There was a little boy with a bad temper (脾气). He always got very angry. His father gave him a bag of nails (钉子) and told him that every time he lost his temper, he had to hammer (用锤子敲击) a nail in the back fence (篱笆). The boy did as his father told him. However, as time went by, he found it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence. Finally, the day came when the boy didn’t lose his temper at all.

He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper. The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone. The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, “You have done well, my son, but look at the holes (洞) in the fence. The fence will never be the same as before.”

When you say things in anger, they will leave a scar (疤痕) in others’ hearts. It won’t matter how many times you say I’m sorry, the wound (伤口) is still there. Friends are very important. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They always want to open their hearts to you. Don’t hurt your friends any more.
