Learning to Accept

I learned how to accept life as it is from my father.

36 , he did not teach me acceptance

when he was strong and healthy, but rather when he was

37

and ill.

My father was

38

a strong man who loved being active, but a terrible illness

39

all

that away. Now he can no longer walk, and he must sit quietly in a chair all day. Even talking is

40 . One night, I went to visit him with my sisters. We started

41

about life, and I told them

about one of my

42 . I said that we must very often give things up

43

we grow --- our youth,

our beauty, our friends --- but it always

44

that after we give something up, we gain something

new in its place. Then suddenly my father

45

up. He said, “But, Peter, I gave up

46 ! What

did I

gain?” I thought and thought, but I couldn’t think of anything to say.

47 , he answered his

own question: “I

48

the love of my family,” I looked at my sisters and saw tears in their eyes,

along with hope and thankfulness.

I was also

49

by his words. After that, when I began to feel irritated (

愤怒的

) at someone,

I

50

remember his words and become

51 . If he could replace his great pain with a feeling of

love for others, then I should be

52

to give up my small irritations. In this

53 , I learned the

power of acceptance from my father.

Sometimes I

what other things I could have learned from him if I had listened more

carefully when I was a boy. For now, though, I am grateful for this one

Ban the Band(

乐队

)

Every

year, out school has

a dance for all the students. It’s a

little funny seeing friends in

clean shoes and trousers or colorful __36____, instead of the usual school uniform.

Most of us think the dance is great _37___ ---even the teachers enjoy being there. ___38__,

two weeks ago someone said that there would be no ___39___ band this year ---only CDs.

“I don’t __40__ it!” Amy cried out during the lunch break.

“Someone

said

the

school

couldn’t

__41__

a

band,

and

they

think

it’s

too

noisy

anyway.”

added Daniel.

“Well, I don’t think it’s __42__ enough without a band!” declared Angela. ”and I’m going to

see what can be done. ”

Angela was as good as her __43__. In the afternoon she went to see the school headmaster

who agreed to give the __44__ some more thought. And he suggested that one __45__for having a

band was to increase the price of each ticket from $$5 to $$10. Angela had to ___46__ out whether

the students would like to do that.

“I

need

all

of

you

to

help

me,

”she

__47__to

our

group

before

school

the

next

day.

”Mr.

Berry gave me a list of all the names, and suggested we ask each one their __48__ about the band

and the extra cost. ”

___49___ the day we asked around as Angela sugges

ted, and wrote down people’s feelings

about

the

band

and

the

cost.

We

were

amazed

how

much

__50__

there

was

for

the

band

and

everyone agreed to pay the extra $$5.

“I’m surprised, ”smiled Mr. Berry, when we gave him the __51__. ”I realty thought that only

a

few

people

__52__

their

band

and

that

the

cost

would

be

too

high.

OK.

Angela,

your

next

__53__is to find a good band and line them up for the dance.

”

Angela was all smiles and __54__ the news to Amy and Daniel. ”You’re __55__, ”smiled

Daniel to Angela as he thought how close they came to having a less than perfect dance.
