One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts,it came without wrap(包装).
On September 11 th , 1 958,Mum gave birth to Richard.After she brought him home from hospital,she put him in my lap,saying, “I promised you a gift, and here it is.” What an honor! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own.I played with it day and night. I sang to it, I told it stories.I told it over and over how much I loved it!
One morning, however,I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it.Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital.It had a fever. For several days,I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as “hopeless”,“pitiful",and “dying”, which sounded Ominous.
Christmas was coming, “Don’t expect any presents this year,” Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. “If your baby brother lives, that’ll be Christmas enough.” As he spoke,his eyes filled with tears. I’d never seen him cry before.
The phone rang early on Christmas morning.Dad jumped out of bed to answer it.From my bedroom I heard him say, “What? He’s all right?” He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home!” “Thank God!” I heard Mum cry.
From the window upstairs,I watched my parents rush out to the car.I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat.But I knew they were not empty: they were filled with love !

I’ll call my father tomorrow which is Father’s Day. Every other 1 I call,Morn answers and Dad quietly picks up the 2 and listens in to our conversation.But 3 Father’s Day, we will talk a little about my job,my family and the weather. Then Dad will say,“Thanks for 4 ,son ,”and hang up.
5 it is almost summer, every year after our Father’s Day talk,I’m left with images of my father and the cold.As a boy I watched him out of the kitchen window 6 our lane(道) of snow with the first snow blower(旋转式清雪机). First,he’d do our walk and then he’d blow the lanes of the shut-ins(不能出门的病人),the single morns,and poorer folks, 7 could not seem to get it together.
I 8 him and learned from him,but I 9 not remember my father and me ever having much of a conversation.Nothing that he 10 shared、vim me in a heart-felt way showed that he may be 11 ,upset or ready to climb the wall.
The last time I saw my father, I asked him to go out for a 12 with me.The sun was setting over the lake and I said,“Come on.We don’t 13 much time together any more. Let’s go. ”Father looked at me meaningfully and said,“ 14 . ”
That visit to my father was about a week before September 11 th.I was near Ground Zero on that day and for five hours 15 the first plane struck, my family did not know of my whereabouts(下落). 16 for me I arrived back at our home in Brooklyn.My biggest 17 was that my wife told me my father was 18 to drive from his home on Lake Huron to Ground Zero to find me.
To love the remote father is to face this paradox(矛盾):to accept his refusal of my 19 for a sunset walk with his worry that I might have died with thousands of others last September; to deeply know, if not accept,that is his way, the way a man of 10 words,snowblower of shut-ins and lonely hearts,can best show a father’s love.

Every country has its heroes. They may be soldiers, sports people, doctors or film stars. We admire them for their courage, their strength, or their devotion to duty .Their examples inspire us to live better and to work harder.
Terry Fox was a young student who loved life. He was a sports fan. When he was just 18 years old, a terrible event happened: his right leg had to be cut off because of cancer.

I went into Harrods in London (a huge department store I am sure you have heard of) to buy some Minton china plates for a wedding anniversary which was to be a group gift from friends to other friends in Geneva.
Having only 30 minutes between meeting. I whizzed there in a taxi from the office and battled through the milling people on the 2nd day of the sales on the ground floor up to the 5th to the china department. There was a man standing there who was obviously a sales person who I rushed up to and asked if he had this particular china in stock and if it would take long to wrap, etc. He was amazing. He got the plates in seconds, wrapped them up and asked me if I wanted a store card, to which I replied no, because I lived in Switzerland, to which he replied asking if, as I lived abroad, would like a tax rebate form(退税表). After that he showed me what to do, produced a map of the store and told me where I should go for the formalities(程序). That was fabulos! I thanked him and said what wonderful service he had given me. I even asked if he gave this to everyone, to which he answered: “I’m just doing what is required at Harrods”. With that, a tall man in a grey suit approached me and offered his hand to shake mine saying, “Can I introduce myself? I am the Chief Executive of Harrods and what an interesting conversation I have just heard…” He had been wandering through the store (as you should do as a hands-on CEO) and had overheard me thanking this salesman, whose face, I can hardly
describe, was frozen in a mixture of delight awe and astonishment!
Can you imagine the salesman going home to his family and friends recounting what the CEO spoke to him after overhearing him being praised by a customer?
