One day I hopped in a taxi and we 1 for the airport. We were driving in the right lane when 2 a
black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and 3 the other car by 4 inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started
yelling at us.
My taxi driver just smiled and 5 at the guy. And I mean,he was really 6 . So I asked, "Why did
you just do that? This guy almost 7 your car and sent us to the 8 !" This is when my taxi driver taught me 9 I now call, "The Law of the Garbage Truck."
He 10 that many people are like garbage 11 . They run around full of garbage, full of frustration,
full of anger, and full of 12 . As their garbage piles 13 , they need a place to 14 it and sometimes
they"ll dump it on you. Don"t take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don"t take
their garbage and 15 it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets.
The bottom line is that 16 people do not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life"s 17 short to
wake up in the morning with 18 . So....Love the people who treat you right. 19 for the ones who don"t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent 20 you take it! |

Oleksander Pylyshenko is either very fearless,very foolish… or both. The 40-year-old zookeeper
from the Ukraine recently spent five weeks in a cage with Katya, a 200-kilo African lioness. Why? Well
for a start, he wanted to raise awareness of the treatment of animals in captivity. Secondly, he hoped to
break the Guinness World Record for time spent living in a cage with a lion. And thirdly? "I wanted to
show my children what kind of man I am," said Oleksander.
For 36 days, Oleksander and Katya shared the cage together. They ate hunks of meat thrown into
the cage by Oleksander"s wife, and slept side by side on a bed of hay. Oleksander did have a few more
creature comforts than his feline flatmate - he built himself a shower and toilet inside the enclosure. But he
didn"t use any soap as the sharp scent is upsetting to lions.
And as if living with the king of the jungle wasn"t dangerous enough, Katya was also pregnant at the
time. She gave birth during Oleksander"s stay. Wild animals are very protective of their young but the
zookeeper said Katya trusted him completely. Oleksander" wife, Olena, was also very trusting. "when he
first told me about the plan I was very scared. But I decided to support my husband."
Once the five weeks was up, Oleksander stepped out of the cage and declared the experiment a
success. He told a Russian news agency, "Katya taught me a lot about honesty and kindness." Also, a
representative from Guinness World Records confirmed that Oleksander ahd beaten the previous record
by three weeks.
But the parting was also bittersweet. "Katya was very sad to see me go," Oleksander noted. Oleksander"s wife, on the other hand, was very happy to have her husband back. |

B. He equipped the enclosure with modern facilities, for example, a computer.

Our actions determine who we are and, in turn, who we are determines our actions. One thing I"ve
learned is 1 we lose track of who we are, we lose track of where we"re headed in life. I once have a
friend who lost track. He 2 forgetting who he was in an experience that would change us both forever.
For five years, we were best friends. We 3 a love of comic books, action figures and Star Wars. We
held a going-away party for our local comic book store when it closed. We were inseparable, he and I,
and there was 4 when it seemed nothing could tear us apart.
And then one day, it all began to change. Slowly and 5 he turned away from it all. He stopped
reading comics and watching movies, and we grew further and further apart. He sacrificed his identity
6 a darker future. He became involved with drugs, and I watched 7 , over a period of about a year,
he changed from a creative, straight-A student to someone who was 8 all his classes from skipping
too much school. All the while, I could do 9 but ignore the fact that I was losing my friend.
I realized after the fact that I had 10 him slip away. I trusted he would find his own way back and
pull through it 11 . I abandoned him when my help could have made all the 12 . I realize now that one
can"t always expect things to 13 all right. Unless we take action and shape our present, we must accept
14 future we arrive at. Perhaps if I had spoken out and forced him to realize where he was headed,
he 15 to change paths.
But I also realize that I wouldn"t 16 what happened to him to happen to me, and it"s scary to think
how easily it could have. Looking back, I"m 17 to learn from his mistakes. The 18 thing I want is to
abandon who I am. My identity makes me happy. I look at myself and 19 makes me appreciate life. I
have 20 in myself in individuality, and the last thing I want is to serve as a scary reminder to someone
else. |

On a warm Monday, Jenny Neilson bought a sandwich and parked her car under some trees. Rolling
down the windows to let in fresh air, she settled back to enjoy her lunch. Suddenly she noticed a big bald man running through the parking lot. Before she came to realize what would happen, the man was there,
shouting through her window, "Get out!"
Neilson refused.
Pulling open her door, the man seized her by the neck and hair, and threw her out of the car onto the
ground. She screamed, grabbing her purse and the keys.
Two reporters of the local newspaper, Robert Bruce and Jeff Jackson, just outside their office building on a break, heard the screams and began running .
When they reached Neilson"s car, the attacker had jumped into the driver"s seat and was madly
searching for the keys. Bruce opened the door, and he and Jackson dragged the man out. The attacker
fought back. But even in his cornered panic, he was no match for the two athletic men.
Reggie Miller, a worker of the local newspaper, heard the screams, too. He rushed back to the office
to phone the police, and then ran back with some plastic ropes-used to tie up newspapers.
With his arms tied tight behind him, the prisoner looked up and said coldly, "I hope you guys feel
good about yourselves-you just caught one of the most wanted men." They ignored him and waited for
the police. Later, Bruce and Jackson were shocked to learn the man was the professional carjacker (劫
车者)and suspected murderer, whose picture-but with a full head of hair-had been recently printed in
their own newspaper.
Neilson considers herself lucky though she suffered injuries. She believes the story might have had a
different ending if those good people had not come to her aid. "Unfortunately," she said, "many people
would never have done what they did, and that is the real truth." |

On Sundays my father always wore that dull gray apron - the one with the race cars all over it. The
ritual began after breakfast when Dad always announced: "Go ahead everyone. I"ll take care of the
dishes!" With that my mother disappeared into the folds of the Sunday paper. Off came the suit coat he
had worn to church that morning. Up went the shirtsleeves. On went that apron. For the next hour Dad
did the dishes, singing ballads like "I Had a Hat When I Came In" and "Who Put the Chow in Mrs.
Murphy"s Chowder?"
I suppose it was strange for a boy"s father to wear an apron - even one with race cars - but I never
thought much of it until the day that Dad broke with tradition. It was the last Sunday in August. My father
seemed in an expansive mood as we walked home from church together.
"Tommy," he said letting my name roll off his tongue. My mind raced ahead of his words: The birds
and the bees? A new bike? A part-time job?
"There comes a time in every boy"s life when he must take on responsibilities." This was important. I
might even get to back the car out of the driveway.
" Responsibilities?" I asked.
"Yes. It"s time you took a greater role in the household." Power tools? Boss my baby brother?
"Starting today, I want you to do the dishes on Sunday morning so your mother and I can work the
crossword puzzle together."
"The dishes!?"
"Anything wrong with taking over the dishes, son?"
I started to say something about a man"s job or woman"s work, but I knew immediately that my
protests would fall on deaf ears.
I didn"t taste a bit of breakfast that morning. Dad seemed in a jovial mood as he described an
exceptional Yankee game seen through the eyes of Mel Allen on the radio last night.
"Mickey Mantle drove the ball right over the center field wall," he said. "Just a straight line climb in
right out of the stadium." He looked out the window as if trying to pick the ball out of the cloud formations. I tried to imagine Mickey Mantle wearing an apron.
Suddenly, everything grew quiet. My sister began to clear the table. My brother was scraping the last
of the egg from his plate. And then that ancient family ritual that had filled so many Sunday mornings came
to an end. My father announced: "Let"s go read the paper, Hon."
"Aren"t you doing the dishes?" my mother asked in puzzlement.
"Your oldest son has generously offered to fill the position."
My brother and sister stopped cold. So this was what my life had come to. A dark angel sat on my
left shoulder and reminded me that I could hit a baseball farther than anyone in my class. I could
bench-press my weight. I knew three declensions in Latin, the language of Caesar. Ask me to run
through a rainstorm. Command me to ride the roller coaster - backward. These things I would do. But I
could never do those dishes. There was nothing left but to refuse.
People often say there is a special chemistry between a father and a son. He came back into the
kitchen just as I was about to storm out. He had loosened his tie and rolled up the sleeves of his
shirt-ready to relax. In his right hand was the old apron.
"I want you to have this, Tommy. It"ll keep your clothes from getting wet." And before I could mount
a protest, he had put the thing on me. "Thanks, Son. Your mother and I appreciate this."
With that he disappeared into the Sunday paper. I looked down at the plastic. It had seen better days.
I could see my dad reaching for the dishes. The dark angel flew off. Soon I was singing about Mrs.
Murphy"s chowder. The words came out of nowhere. And out of nowhere I knew the kind of man I
wanted to be. |

True forgiveness is one of the most remarkable qualities a human can possess!
In the fighting between two countries in the 1970s, a young man was walking from one village to the
next when he was 1 by an armed guerrilla (游击队) fighter from the enemy country. The fighter
2 the young man down the hill where he was to be 3 .
But a (n) 4 thing happened. The young man, who had 5 military (军事的) training, was able
to disarm (解除武装) the fighter. Now, the table was 6 , and it was the fighter who was ordered
down the hill.
As they walked, 7 , the young man began to reflect on what was happening. Recalling the 8 of
his mother, "Love your enemies; do good to those who 9 you." he found he could go no further. He
10 the gun into the bushes, told the fighter he was 11 to go and turned back 12 the hill.
Minutes later, he heard footsteps 13 behind him as he walked. "Is this the end after all?" he 14 .
Perhaps the fighter had got the gun and wanted to finish him off.
But he continued on, 15 glancing back, until his enemy reached him, only to grab him in a hug and
pour out 16 for sparing his life.
Mercy often wears the face of 17 . And though it usually isn"t an enemy in uniform that we are
challenged to forgive, we hav 18 for mercy every day. Family members and friends, co-workers and
neighbors and even strangers have 19 for our forgiveness. You know who they are.
As Mahatma Gandhi said, "The 20 can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute (特性) of the
strong." Be strong. Forgive. |
