| I first went to Harrow in the summer term. The school had the biggest swimming pool I had ever seen. It was a good joke to come up behind a naked boy, and push him into the pool. I made quite a habit of this with boys of my own size or less. One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool. He was no bigger than I was, so I thought him a fair game. Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would not get wet, I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great strength making its way by strokes (猛力地划) to the shore. I fled, but in vain. He overtook me, seized me violently, and threw me into the deepest part of their pool. I soon climbed out on the other side, and found myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys. "Do you know what you have done?" they said, "It"s Amery; he is in Grade Six. He is champion at gym, and he has got his football honor." I was frightened and felt ashamed. How could I tell his position when he was wrapped in a bath towel and so small? He didn"t seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word, "My father, who is a great man, is also small." He laughed at this, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I had better be careful in the future, the incident was closed. | ||||||||||||

| For a few years, I have been wearing a ring on my right hand. It"s not always the 1 ring, but it"s always a ring that has 2 on it so that when I look at it, I"m 3 or reminded of something important . I have made a 4 of buying rings like this whenever I see one in a store. Sometimes I give them away as 5 to someone like Jennie. I first met Jennie in the 6 waiting room and we had talked several times. One night I sat down beside her and 7 how her son was going because I knew that he was in very 8 condition. She told me that she didn"t know what to do any more because it seemed none of the 9 from the doctors was good. They weren"t at all sure her son was going to 10 the accident that had hurt him so badly. With 11 in her eyes she said, "They"re taking away my 12 ." I knew then that it was 13 just a coincidence (巧合) that I was wearing the ring that I had on that day. As she 14 to talk, I 15 slipped the ring off my finger and placed it in Jennie"s hand. I told her to wear it to remember that God loved her and He would be with her 16 all of this. 17 Jennie looked down at the ring, she got excited and then held it tightly, 18 the word written on the ring was "HOPE". The last day I was at the hospital, I saw Jennie in the distance as I got on the lift. She 19 and held up the hand with the ring on it as she called out to me saying, "Look, I 20 have Hope!" | ||||||||||||
