     During my free time one day, I wandered down a lonely path into the woods and sat against a tree.
Then I saw one of the camp counselors approaching me. "Oh great," I thought, since counselors were
always trying to cheer you up or make you laugh.
     "Hey," he said, "mind if I have a seat?" I shrugged. I wasn"t. going to encourage him, but I couldn"t
exactly stop him, either. He sat down alongside me and extended a hand. "I"m Gary," he said, "and
you"re Erica, right?" I nodded. "You don"t exactly look like you"re having a good time," he began.
     I crossed my arms and gritted my teeth.  "Look," I said, "I didn"t want to come to camp, I don"t like
it. I"m not having fun, and it basically stinks(令讨厌的) ," I glared at Gary.
     "So there"s nothing here at all for you, huh?" he asked.
     " Nothing,"  I answered.
     "Let me show you something," said Gary. He got up, and I followed him along the path until I heard
a  sound like a roaring freight train.
     " What"s that?" I asked.
     "Wait and see," he replied, with a small smile.
     When we rounded the corner, I couldn"t believe what I saw. There was the biggest waterfall I could
ever imagine, right in front of me. "Cool!" I said, and I could feel my eyes getting bigger and a smile
tugging at my mouth.
     "Still think there"s nothing here for you?" asked Gary. " Because there"s a whole lot more of this kind
of  nothing" around here. "
     I had to admit, the waterfall was impressive.
     "Look," said Gary, "camp is what you make it. You can be  sullen (闷闷不乐的)  and  closed-minded and have a rotten (倒霉的)  four weeks,  or you can take a look around you and see some of the
incredible sights and appreciate the opportunity. It would be useless for me to try to make you have fun.
You can only do that for yourself. But if you loosen up a little, you might actually have a good time."
With that, he turned and walked away, leaving me on the path.
     That night, by the campfire, I found myself singing along with everyone else. By the time the four
weeks were up, I didn"t want to leave. I"d seen some amazing things and made some great friends.
      Beauty is where you find it. Life is what you make it. I think it"s going to be a good year this year.
I mean, I"m going to work to make it one. Maybe if I"m lucky, I"ll get to go back to camp next 
year.                 
1. When Gary walked to Erica, you could predict that            .
A. he would help her feel better
B. she would say hello to him
C. he would talk about his life
D. she would tell him to go away
2. What happened to Erica after Cary talked to her?

A. She has many close friends at home.
B. She is looking forward to the future.
C. She"s a good student who gets mostly As.
D. She often gets into trouble at school.

the idea of taking the bus again. "How am I  10   to know where I am going? I feel like you"re abandoning
me," she responded bitterly. Mark taught her how to rely on her other   11  , specifically her hearing, to
determine where she was and how to    12  to her new environment. Monday morning arrived, they went
their   13  ways for the first time.
     On Friday morning, Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was paying, the driver said, "I sure

you mean?" she asked.

military uniform has been   16   across the corner watching you as you get off the bus. He makes sure
you cross the street   17  and he watches until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss,
gives you a little salute and walks away. " Tears of happiness poured down Susan"s cheeks. For   18  she
couldn"t physically see him, she had always felt Mark"s presence. He had given her a gift more powerful
than   19  , a gift she didn"t need to see to  20  -the gift of love that can bring light where there is darkness.

     One day,a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door
found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.
     However,he lost his courage when a lovely young woman opened the door. __he asked for a drink
of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and
then asked,"How much do I owe you?"
    "You don"t owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness. " He said, " Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart. " As Howard Kelly left that house,he not only
felt stronger physically, but it also increased his faith in God and the human race. He was about to give up
and quit before this point.
     Years later the young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her
to the big city,where specialists can be called in to study her rare disease. Dr Howard Kelly, now famous,was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light
filled his eyes
. Immediately,he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room.
     Dressed in his doctor"s gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the
consultation room and determined to do his best to save her life. From that day on,he gave special
attention to her case.
     After a long struggle,the battle was won. Dr Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to
him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room.
She was afraid to open it because she was positive that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off.
Finally she looked,and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words...
                " Paid in full with a glass of milk" ( Signed) Dr Howard Kelly
   Tears of joy flooded her eyes as she prayed silently , " Thank you , Cod. Your love has spread through
human hearts and hands. "
