I will never forget the year when I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not
be 1 Christmas gifts because there was not enough money in our family. I felt sad and thought, "What
would I say when the other kids asked what I had 2 ?" Just when I started to 3 that there would
no Christmas that year, three women 4 at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a
doll. I felt such a sense of 5 that I would no longer have to be embarrassed (尴尬) when I returned
to school. I wasn"t 6 . Somebody had thought me important 7 to bring me a gift.
Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I could try to make my 8
Christmas in the new house special and memorable, I 9 remembered the women"s visit. I decided
that I wanted to create that same feeling of 10 for as many children as I could possibly reach.
So I 11 a plan and gathered forty people from my company to prepare. Then about 125 orphans
(孤儿) were invited at our Christmas party. For every child, we wrapped colorful packages
filled with toys, clothes, and school supplies, 12 with a child"s name. We wanted all of them to know
their gifts were 13 . Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts, I 14 them that they
couldn"t open their presents 15 every child had got his. Finally the 16 , which they had been so
eagerly waiting for, came as I called out, "One, two, three. Open your presents!" As the children opened
their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles 17 up the whole house, where The
atmosphere of 18 was so obvious, and 19 wasn"t just about toys. It was a feeling - "I wasn"t
forgotten", which I have been so familiar 20 that very Christmas long ago when the women came to
visit us. Being concerned matters much for any child. |

Once President Roosevelt"s house was broken into and lots of things were stolen. Hearing this, one
of Roosevelt"s friends wrote to him and advised him not to take it to his 1 so much. President
Roosevelt wrote back immediately, saying," Dear friend, thank you for your letter to 2 me. I"m all right
now. I think I should thank God. This is because of the following three reasons: firstly, the thief only stole
things from me but did not 3 me at all; secondly, the thief has stolen some of my things 4 all my things;
thirdly, most luckily for me, it was the man 5 me who became a thief…"
It was quite unlucky for anyone to be stolen from…. However, President Roosevelt had such three
reasons to be so 6 . This story tells us how we can learn to be grateful in our life.
Being grateful is an important philosophy of life and a great wisdom…. It is impossible for anyone to
be lucky and successful all the time 7 he lives in the world. We should learn how to face failure or
misfortune bravely and 8 and to try to deal with it. If so, should we complain about our life and
become 9 and disappointed ever since then or should we be grateful for our life, 10 again ourselves
after a fall? William Thackeray, a famous British writer, said, "Life is a mirror. When you smile in front of
it, it will also smile and 11 will it when you cry to it." If you are grateful to life, it will bring you shining
sunlight. If you always complain about everything, you may own 12 in the end. When we are successful, we can 13 have many reasons for being grateful, but we have only one excuse to show ungratefulness
if we fail.
I think we should even be grateful to life 14 we are unsuccessful or unlucky. Only by doing this can
we find our weakness and shortcomings when we fail. We can also get 15 and warmth when we are
unlucky. This can help us find our courage to overcome the difficulties we may face, and receive great
impetus (动力) to 16 . We should treat our frustration and misfortune in our life 17 just as President
Roosevelt did. We should be grateful all the time and keep having a healthy 18 to our life forever,
keep having perfect characters and enterprising spirit. Being grateful is not only a kind of comfort, not
19 from life and nor thinking of winning in spirit like Ah Q. Being grateful is a way to sing for our life
which comes just from our love and 20 . |
