It was late on a snowing night. Doctor Van was driving fast to the hospital to do an operation (手術) on a badly hurt (受傷的) person. Minutes later he came to a red traffic light and had to stop to wait. A man suddenly opened the door of the car and got in.

“Drive on, ” shouted the man, “Just do what I’ve told you to. ” The man was strong and tall while Doctor Van was not.

“But I’m a doctor, ” Van tried to tell him what he was going to do. “I’m on my way to the

hospital to save…” “Stop talking and drive faster, as fast as you can!” the man stopped Van and Van had to do so.

Only a few minutes had passed when the man made Van stop his car again and drove

him off, and he himself drove away very quickly.

Van stood in the snow for a moment and then walked around to look for a taxi.

Another half an hour had passed when Van got out of the taxi and ran into the hospital. But it was too late and nothing could be done.

The man who had taken Van’s car was standing by the person all the time. He was so

sad! Only then did Van know that the man was the father of that badly hurt person!

A new term has begun. Teachers are __36__ about the fact that new students are not easy to handle. They like to bring cellphones and MP3 players to school. What is __37__, some students even use cellphones to do with out-of-class matters in class, or sometimes just for fun. Some other students listen to MP3 players when they are having a lesson that they are not interested in.

Are these new students really that __38__? ‘Yes,’ says Delaney Kirk, a professor at Drake University. __39__ she adds it’s not their fault. Instead, the things that they bring into school --- cellphones, MP3 players and so on --- and the teachers are to blame.

It seemed that learning well __40__ nothing to do with them,’ she says. ‘At first, I got worried about this, but then I said to myself, “You’re teaching __41__, and you need to manage this … These students need to know more about manners. It’s time to help them develop some good __42__. They shouldn’t waste time doing nothing when they are young. Sooner or later, they might regret the time they have wasted.”’

Kirk also __43__ a list of suggestions to help teachers better manage their classes. The following are among her suggestions:

 "Hi, Mommy, what are you doing?" asked Susie.

    "I'm making a cake for Mrs. Smith next door," said her mother.

    "Why?" asked Susie, who was only six years old.

    "Because Mrs. Smith is very sad; she  32   her daughter and she has a broken heart. We need to take care of her for a little while."

    "Why, Mommy?"

    "You see, Susie, when someone is very, very sad, they have trouble  33  the little things like making dinner. Because we're part of a community and Mrs. Smith is our neighbor, we need to do some things to help her. Mrs. Smith won't ever be able to talk with her daughter or hug her or do all those   34   things moms and daughters do together. You are a very smart girl, Susie, maybe you'll  think of some way to help take care of Mrs. Smith.”

    Susie thought   35   about it and how she could do her part in caring for Mrs. Smith. A few minutes later, Susie knocked on her door. After a few moments Mrs. Smith answered the knock with a "Hi, Susie."

    "My mommy says that you lost your daughter and you're very, very sad with a broken heart.” Susie held her hand out shyly. In it was a Band - Aid（創(chuàng)可貼）．“This is  37  your broken heart." Mrs. Smith  38  her tears. She knelt down and hugged Susie, saying "Thank you, darling girl, this will   39   a lot."

    Mrs. Smith accepted Susie's act of   40   and took it one step further. She bought a small key ring with a picture frame（相框）.She put Susie's Band - Aid in the frame to  41  herself to heal （治療）a little every time she saw it．
