     My friend Heather mentioned that she had never seen an Angel. Then I remembered the   1   I had with
my sister Sandra earlier this week. 　　
     This will be Sandra"s first Christmas without her husband. This summer he died in her arms. On Thursday,
she was in the store   2   for an ideal card for her two sons and daughter. Time passed by quickly as she   3
the many choices. She wanted a card that sent something special to each of them,   4   she knew they would

     Finally! She found the one that expressed the   6   feeling. The words expressed the feelings that she
wished to share. However, a sharp pain pierced (穿透) her heart when she realized that the card was   7

run down her cheeks.

was looking at her with  12  and concern. "Uh…oh...OH!" Sandra responded, "I can"t give this card to my
children because…because my husband died and this is the  13  card." 　　
     Hearing this, the stranger"s face softened with sympathy (同情) and love. She reached out and  14  my
sister into her arms, giving her unspoken permission to cry in the protection of her embrace (拥抱). She  15
held my sister until her calmness  16 . "Thank you for listening to me cry on," was what my sister said when
all was better. "You are welcome, and I am so sorry for your  17 ," the stranger answered and said goodbye
to her. 　　
     During her telling of this event I was feeling  18  that I hadn"t been there. My sister needed me and a
stranger had to do my  19 . "You know," she went on, "a friend suggested that it was like meeting with an
Angel." My  20  disappeared in an instant. My sister required an Angel, and I think that is exactly what she
got.

    When a close friend dies, it often forces you to consider your own death. The more you have in common
with the friend, the more his death will make you wonder about your own. Sometimes you will naturally say
to yourself, "It could just as easily have been me." Such a death has a way of reminding us how fragile life is,
and it may cause you to reassess (重新评价) the direction of your own life. 　　
    Jack"s story is a good example. A successful businessman making a lot of money, Jack didn"t spend as
much time with his family as he wanted. His job required him to work long hours. But three years ago one
of his best friends, a man who worked in the same office, had a heart attack. He died while celebrating his
daughter"s eighteenth birthday in a restaurant. He was only fifty years old. 　　
    Not long after his friend"s death, Jack started to have a chest pain. Finally he had a good physical check-up.
He received a clean bill of health. But the chest pain continued. He kept thinking of the death of his friend. Jack
thought about how much his friend missed in life and he saw how hard it was for his friend"s family to manage
after he passed away. 　　
    Jack realized that he didn"t want to end up his life that way. He talked his feelings over with his wife and
children, and decided to change his way of life. The family moved to a small town where he started a simple
life. Now he is running a small art gallery (画廊). He is relaxed, and says he has never been so happy in his
life. And he has got no more chest pain.

    The famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean, so

each other forever. He sent camera team out one evening to film the sunset for him.

in the west. We can get you a sunrise over the sea, if necessary, but not a sunset."
     "But I want a sunset!" the director shouted. "Go to the airport, take the next flight to the west coast, and
get one."
     But then a young secretary had an idea. "Why don"t you photograph a sunrise," she suggested, "and then
play it backwards, Then it"ll look like a sunset." "That"s a very good idea!" the director said. Then he turned
to the camera team and said, "Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea."

of a beautiful bay. Then at nine o"clock they took it to the director. "Here it is, Sir," they said, and gave it to
him. He was very pleased.
    They all went into the studio. "All right," the director explained, "now our hero and heroine are going to
say goodbye. Run the film backwards so that we can see the sunset behind them."
