My crippled(瘸腿的)grandmother was dancing. I stood in the living room doorway, looking at her beautiful movements, completely        . Do you know she"d had her accident. I had read that in an old newspaper article.
‘‘So...Your leg? I mean,         did your leg heal(治愈)?"
“To tell you the truth my legs have been well all my life,” she said.
“But I don"t understand!” I said, “Your dancing career...You         all these years?”
‘‘Very much so, and for a very good        .”
She thought for a while and then continued. “Your grandfather and I were talking about engagement(订婚)        he had to go to war. I was so afraid of losing him that the only way I could stay normal was to dance. I put all my heart          practicing and I became very good. The public loved me, but all I could feel worried about not knowing whether the love of my life would          return. One day a letter came, There were only three sentences: “I have lost my leg. I am no longer a        man and now give you back your freedom. It is best you forget about me.”
“I made my decision there and then. I traveled away from the city. When I returned I had bought        a stick. I told everyone I had been in a car crash and that my leg would never completely heal again. No one doubted the story l had learned to limp(一瘸一拐地走). And I made sure the first person to hear of my accident was a         I knew well. Then I went to the hospital. The nurses pushed your grandfather outside in his         .I took a deep breath, leaned on my stick and limped to him.”
I showed him newspaper articles of my accident. “There is a whole life waiting for us out there! But I am not going to         you. You are going to walk yourself.”
I limped a few steps toward him and showed him what I"d taken out of my pocket. “Now show me you are          a man.” I said.He bent to take his stick from the ground and struggled(挣扎) out of that wheelchair.He managed it on his own and walked to me and never sat in a wheelchair          in his life.”
“What did you show him?” I had to know. Grandma looked at me and smiled. “Two engagement rings, of course. I had bought them the day          he left for the war and I was not going to waste them on any other man.”

Sudha Chandran, a well-known dancer from India, had to have her right leg cut after a car accident. She was also         on her career path.
Though the accident brought her bright career to a        , she didn’t give up. In the          months that followed, Sudha met a doctor who developed a man-made rubber         filled with sponge (海绵). So           she wanted to go back to dance after she had been fitted with her new leg. Sudha knew that she believed in herself and could realize her dream, so she began her courageous journey back to the world of dancing ---          to walk, turn, jump, balance, bend, stretch, twist, twirl...

After every recital (music, dance given by one person) she would ask her dad about her performance. “You           have a long way to go” was the answer she used to get in return. In January 1984, Sudha made a historic           by giving a public recital in Bombay. She performed in such a great success that it moved everyone to tears and this           pushed her to the highest position again. That evening when she asked her dad the           question, he didn’t say anything. He just touched her feet as praise.
Sudha’s comeback was so moving that a film producer          to make the story into a hit film.
When someone asked Sudha how she had managed to dance again, she said quite simply, “You don’t need feet to dance.           is impossible in this world. If you have the will to win, you can achieve anything.”  (266)

The greatest feeling in the world comes not from receiving presents, or even getting an A on the math test you studied so hard for. Rather, it          when you hand a cup of hot coffee to that older man sitting on the side of the street asking for money. You feel it when you drive an hour and a half to a          to meet children with cancer. And you feel it when you sit down with your friend to comfort her          her mother died. Helping others can be the greatest feeling in the world, and I          this just one year ago.
My friend asked me to attend a Youth Group meeting at his church. After an hour of listening to them         their opinions, I was invited to go with them to help          the homeless.
Early that Saturday morning, a team of 15 teenagers began making sandwiches and counting bags of candy. For the first time in my life I realized that we, the teens of America, can make a        . Since it was my first time, and I wasn’t part of the group, I felt a little out of place. But watching the others          the food drove my nervousness away.
Before long, all 150 bagged lunches were gone and the group was          its way home. I realized that not only is my friend an amazing person, but that all of those people are amazing. That’s what made me join the Youth Group.
I work at a coffee shop but don’t make much. It’s not the best job, but there are times when it’s worth it. For example, a few weeks ago, when the store was         and I was bored, looking out of the window, I noticed an old man sitting outside. He had been there before. As a matter of fact, he          came in to buy anything because he didn’t have any money. I took up a cup of coffee, walked outside, and handed it to him. The smile on his face made my day, and as I walked back into the store, I put my own money into the drawer. Then I knew how the members of the Youth Group feel every time they help someone. Knowing that you can help
is        – the greatest feeling in the world.
