As a boy, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather"s farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. I was used to tidy living rooms that seemed to whisper, "Not to be touched!" I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls surrounding the houses. My parents would never approve. The walls were old; some stones were missing, others loose and falling. Still, I entered the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner. "I, uh-I wanna climb the stone walls," I said. Everyone looked up. "Can I climb the stone walls? Immediately voices of disagreement went up from the women in the room." Heavens, no! You"ll hurt yourself!" I wasn"t too surprised; the response was just as I"d expected. But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather"s loud voice. "Now hold on just a minute," I heard him say, "Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.""Go", he said to me, "come and see me when you get back." For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures. I"ll never forget what he said. "Fred", he said, smiling, "You made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, here"s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are." Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers Neighborhood, seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my message to children at the end of almost every visit. "There"s only one person in this whole world like you," the kids can count on hearing me say, "and people can like you exactly as you are." | |||||||||||||||||||||

I didn’t think I had a passion (激情). I 1 sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing 2 the next 3 .It was not long ago that I first learned how 4 having a passion is to my life. That day my mother drove me to the center of the city. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my 5 . It was a man 6 in rags. He was homeless. That didn’t 7 me, for I had seen many like him 8 . But in some way he was 9 , this man was not sitting down 10 a sad expression. He had a radio in his hand and was dancing 11 to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious (珍贵的) thing he had. "Mum, why does that man have a radio 12 he is homeless?" I asked. " He bought it." She replied. I was still unable to 13 . " But if he is homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy 14 or clothes? He 15 it on something he doesn’t need." "Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important things. We need 16 , too." That man must 17 enough about 18 instead of food and clothes. I soon realized that happiness is the key to life. Without it , there is nothing to look forward to. Since then I’ve gone a day 19 thinking of what’s truly important. A home, a meal, clothes-these things are only part of the life. What’s often forgotten is that we all need a 20 , a light in a dark day. We all need a passion. | |||||||||||||||||||||
