A few minutes later, the president walked towards the couple with a  36  face. The lady told him, “We had a son that  37_ Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard. He was  38  here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally killed. My husband and I would like to  39  a memorial（纪念物）to him, somewhere on campus.”

The president wasn’t  40 . Instead, he was shocked. “Madam,” he said, “we can’t put up a statue for every person who studied at Harvard and died. If we did, this   41_  would look like a cemetery（墓地）,” “Oh, no,” the lady  42  quickly. “We don’t want to put up a statue. We would like to give a  43  to Harvard.” The president rolled his eyes and  44  at the couple and then exclaimed（惊叫）, “ A building! Do you have any  45_  how much a building costs? We have spent over ＄7,500,000 on the campus building at Harvard.” For a moment the lady was silent. The president was  46  , because he could get rid of them now. Then the lady turned to her husband and said quietly, “Is that all it costs to start a  47  ? Why don’t we just start our own?” Her husband nodded.  48_ their offer was turned down, Mr. and Mrs. Stanford traveled to California where they founded the University that bears their  49  , a memorial to a son that Harvard no longer  50  about.

Over 40 years later, she still felt the  39 of the night．It was a deep wound on her  40  .

I remember how  41  Holly was on the night she crashed our truck, and how I  42 her．One day, when Holly thinks  43 in the future, I want her to know that I love her a thousand times more than anything else．

I repaired the car, but the dent(凹陷)in my truck is   44 there today．Every day it reminds me of what really  45 in my life．
