I had just finished high school when a disaster hit our family. It was October 1962, and    21   was out of the question. So I found a job. In 1971, my employer announced only graduates(大学毕业生) would get   22  . My job seemed at a dead end unless I    23    further. And to graduate, I had to pass the higher secondary examination first.
I    24   an admission form(表格) and rode to the Human Resource(人力资源) Management office. On arriving there, I was    25   ---I couldn’t find the form. It was the last day to    26   the form, and no blank forms were   27   at the office. I was standing there, disappointed,    28   an elderly gentleman asked me why I looked so    29  . I told him what happened,    30  , “Now I’ll have to wait another year.”
“Well,” he said, “if you’re really serious about studying further, come with me. I have a    31   blank form at home.”
It was 12:30 pm. The counter(柜台) would    32   at 2 pm. His home was 10 km away and I had a slight   33 of going somewhere with a stranger. Anyway, this was my last chance. We reached his house on my bike. He advised me to remain    34  , and gave me a pen and the form. When it was    35  , he told me to rush back and     36   carefully. I reached the office at 1:58 pm. There were two people in line, waiting for their   37   . Just then, the counter official announced that no more forms would be    38   after mine. I breathed a sigh of    39   .
I passed the exam and later got a bachelor’s degree. I also got the promotions. I     40   it all to the timely help from a true gentleman whose name I forgot to ask.

“Grandma, Grandma, tell us a story ! ”Four darling children sat by my feet, looking up at me expectantly.                                                                    Suddenly, we were interrupted clapping.“Terrific, ” the director said, stepping up the stage from the aisle(过道).“Except, could you kids face the audience a bit more? ”
The kids shifted to face the empty seats, which would be filled in a few days for the church play.“Perfect,” the director said. “Now, Grandma, read to your grandchildren.” A pang of sadness hit me. If' only I could read to my real grandchild!
I had a granddaughter, but I'd never met her. Sixteen years earlier my son was involved in a relationship that ended badly. But out of' it came a blessing: a baby girl named Lena. I hoped to be a grandmother to her-but shortly after the birth, the mother moved without any address left. Over  the years, I asked around town to try and find my son’s ex-wife (前妻),but it seemed that she didn’t want to be found.
I'd just joined this new church a week earlier and was at once offered the part of Grandma in the play. At least now I could pretend to be a grandma. The rehearsals went well, and finally the day of' the show arrived. The performance was great. “You all looked so natural up there, ”one of' my friends said.
Afterward, we went to the church basement for refreshments (茶点).I walked over to one of the girls in the play. Rehearsals had been such a whirlwind (一片忙乱) that we never really got to talk. “How's my granddaughter? ” I joked.
“Fine !” she answered. Just then, someone else walked up and asked the girl her name.
I wasn't sure I heard the girl's answer correctly. But it made me ask her another question.“What's your mother's name? ”
She told me, I was still in shock.“And what's your father's name? ”I asked. She told me.It was my son.
She'd only started going to that church a week before I did. Since that day of 'the play, we've stayed close. Not long ago, she even made me a great grandma.

When Albert Einstein was young, he was a quiet child who spent much of his time alone. He was slow to talk and had difficulty in learning to read.
When Albert was five years old, his father gave him a compass. Albert was filled with wonder when he discovered that the compass needle always pointed in the same direction ---- the north. He asked his father and his uncle what caused the needle to move. Their answers were difficult for Albert to understand. Yet he spent a lot of time thinking about them. He said later that he felt something must be hidden behind things.
Albert didn’t like school. The German schools of that time were not pleasant. Students couldn’t ask questions. Albert said he felt as if he were in prison..
One day Albert told his uncle Jacob how much he hated school, especially mathematics. His uncle told him to solve mathematical problems by pretending to be a policeman. “You are looking for someone,” he said, “but you don’t know who he is. Call him X. Find him by using your mathematical tools.”
Albert learned to love mathematics. He was studying the complex mathematics of calculus while all his friends were still studying simple mathematics. Instead of playing with his friends he thought about things such as “What would happen if people could travel at the speed of his light?”
Albert wanted to teach mathematics and physics. He graduated with honors, but it was a pity that he could not get a teaching job.

My 4-year-old son now enjoys posting letters. He has formed the   36  of drawing pictures, writing his name on them, and then    37  the artwork in an envelope. He then insists on   38  his handwork to the neighbors, and a mail box he   39  belongs to the elderly couple who live next door. To be   40  , I didn’t think much of it, but I had   41  to warn my neighbors of the drawings   42  appearing in their letterboxes—I just didn’t have the   43  to do so, because I was a little busy recently.
On Tuesday of last week, I was walking down to school to collect my son when I   44  Mary, my elderly neighbor,   45  at her mail box. She said, “Jodie, is it your little son that has been posting items in my letterbox to me?” I was at once   46 , “Oh yes, Mary, it is. I’m sorry. I meant to tell you…” She cut me off, “Jodie, I just love his mail. I’ve   47  every item he has sent. You don’t know how much   48  the letters has made my day. I just love them.” While I was walking down to school after our   49 , many thoughts came to me. Mary doesn’t have a lot to fill her days,   50  she was a mother to a number of children herself who receives fairly regular visitors. The small   51  of getting some mail—pictures drawn by the hand of a young child—has brought   52  to her days, just as my visit to my grandparents does.
I have decided that my son should   53  this practice. He should also start sending some items to his grandparents in Perth as well. It will most   54  make their day.
It’s doing the little, simple things that can often make a big   55  in someone’s life.
