I had been a high school teacher for six years and had watched a lot of TV shows about solving cases (破案). I was about to begin my dream 35 , something I had wanted for a long, long time.
|
When one of the officers followed me out, I couldn’t wait to ask, “Did I pass, sir?” “No,” he said angrily. “What? Why?” I wondered. He then 41 at his shirt and shouted, “See this? 42 shots! Luckily they were paintballs. I didn’t wear any protective gear (装备) because I was just in the corner to 43 you.”
I said sorry to the officer and told him that I was not terrible at other police trainings and I always scored a high mark when we 44 telling someone that their family member had died. “That’s good,” he said. “Because when you accidentally 45 someone with the way you did, you will be able to tell the family very nicely how they died.” In the end, after nine months of what is usually a six-month course, I realized that people around me would be a lot better off if I 46 to teaching.
I am now the Head of Department for English at a high school. The words of the Rolling Stones spring to mind: You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find you get what you need.

“Dad…”I started. And 3 .
“Yes?” he said.
“The kids say there is no Father Christmas. They say I’m 4 to believe in Father Christmas anymore…it’s only for little kids. But I believe what you told me. Father Christmas is __5 . He is, isn’t he, Dad?”
“The real life and spirit of this magical elf (精灵) lives forever in your heart, my heart, Mom’s heart and in the hearts and minds of 6 people who believe in the joy that giving to others brings.

When it comes time in my life to 13 the reality of Father Christmas to my children, I hope that I will be as eloquent (有口才) and 14 as my dad was the day I learned that the spirit of Father Christmas doesn’t wear a red 15 . And I hope they will accept me as I did that day. I’m sure they will.

Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing(缝纫)or reading.
After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn’t wash her window. It really looks terrible.”
One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window inside. Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible(可见的). Her window was clean!
Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing(批评)her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.
That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings(缺点)? Since then, whenever I wanted to judge(评判)someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.
