Two travelling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The angels were 26 a small space in the cold basement instead of in the comfortable guestroom. As they made their 27 on the hard floor, the older angel saw a 28 in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angel asked 29 , the older angel replied, "Things aren’t always what they seem."
The next night the pair came to he house of a very poor but 30 farmer and his wife. After 31 what little food they had, the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they 32 have a good night’s rest. When the sun 33 the next morning, the angels found the farmer and his wife 34 . Their cow, whose milk had been their only 35 , lay dead in the field. The younger angel was angry and asked the older angel, “How could you 36 this happen? The first man had everything, 37 you helped him. The second family had 38 but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die 39 help them. ”
"Things aren’t always what they seem," the older angel replied. "When we 40 in the basement, I 41 there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. 42 the owner was greedy and unwilling to share, I covered the wall so that he wouldn’t 43 it."
"Then last night as we slept in the farmer’s bed, the angel of death came 44 his wife. I gave him the cow instead. Things aren’t always what they seem."
Sometimes that is 45 what happens when things don’t turn out the way they should.

When Laurent Clerc was one year old, he fell into a fire. As a result, he lost both his hearing and his sense of smell. At the age of 12, Laurent entered the Royal Institution for the Deaf in Paris. After he graduated, the school asked him to stay on as an assistant teacher.
Meanwhile, in America, Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet was studying to be a minister when he met a young deaf girl, Alice Cogswell. He was upset to learn that there were no schools for the deaf in America. Therefore, in 1815, Gallaudet sailed to London to seek ideas on how to teach deaf people. However, he was unable to get help. He met a French educator of the deaf who invited him to Paris to learn at the Royal Institution for the Deaf.
Gallaudet went to the Royal Institution for the Deaf, where Clerc became his Sign Language teacher. The two worked and studied well together. When the time came for Gallaudet to return to America, he asked Clerc to come with him.
The two men set sail on June 18, 1816. The voyage across the Atlantic Ocean took 52 days; however, Clerc and Gallaudet put the time to good use. They discussed the school for the deaf which they planned to open. On the long trip, they had many conversations about education and deafness. The year after they arrived, they founded a school for the deaf in Harford, Connecticut.

Though he had many problems, Konishiki won 14 of his 15 fights, and won the Emperor’s Cup. He was so 34 that he cried. “You ought not to show your feelings,” he said, “but I couldn’t 35 it.”

This attitude really made me 24, so one day I asked him, “I don’t get it! No one can be a positive person 25. How can you manage it?”
“Every time something bad happens, I can choose to 26 it. Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining and I can 27 the positive side of life. Why don’t we just do that later?” Jerry said.
Jerry told me an unusual story out of his experience. One day he left the back door of his restaurant 28 and was robbed by three men. While trying to open the safe, his hand, shaking from 29 , slipped off the combination (开启号码的号码组合). The robbers got angry and 30 him.

“No,” Jerry said, “35 when I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared.”
“A nurse asked if I was allergic (过敏的) to anything. ‘Yes’ I replied. The doctors and nurses stopped 36 as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled, ‘37 !’”
“Over the laughter, I told them, ‘Please 38 on me as if I am alive, not dead.’”
Jerry survived 39 the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. Attitude, after all, is 40 .

The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting (引用) a Biblical (圣经的) passage about husbands being considerate towards their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.
And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks great on you.”
“Oh, Tom, you noticed,” she said, surprised and pleased, maybe a little puzzled.
After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I thought, “Evelyn’s been alone here with the kids all the week and now she wants to stay with me.” We walked on the beach when the children flew their kites.
So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that’s how the whole vacation passed, I made a new pledge to keep on remembering to choose love. There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. Last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.
“What’s the matter?” I asked her.
“Tom,” she said in a voice filled with sorrow, “do you know anything I don’t?”
“What do you mean?”
“Well…that checkup (体检) I had several weeks ago…our doctor…Did he tell you anything about me? Tom, you’ve been so good to me... Am I dying?”
It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I burst out laughing.
“No, honey,” I said, wrapping her in my arms. “You’re not dying; I’m just starting to live.”
