It was 4 o'clock in the morning，when I received the phone call．
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 36 in with severe burns on his face，neck and arms．We have called for a(n) 37 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle．”Seattle was 350 miles from his college，so we knew immediately this was 38 . The doctor described the 39 ，which caused the burns．At 6 am，our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment．When they 40 the charcoal(木炭)，it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much gasoline (petrol)．The flames 41 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to well over his head．
42 ，one of the boys was quick—minded，grasped my son，and 43 him on the grass．While it saved his life，it was not 44 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars．
After he 45 from the treatments，the doctors told him they would not do plastic surgery(整容)for 6 months 46 it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling．So，he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns．
When I was a child , my mother told my sister，who had a 10-inch very 47 scar on her arm，“Nancy，if you ignore the scar，other people will ignore it．It does not mean they will not 48 it，but it means it will not matter to them if it does not matter to you．”I 49 this wisdom on to my son．He took my advice to 50 and returned to school with his head held high--glad he was alive．
By the end of the six—month waiting period，he decided that the scars did not 51 ．So he made the 52 to give up any plastic surgery .We all have “scars” that we believe 53 people to keep away from us．And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently，or dressed differently，people would like us better. But you see，people will only judge you by your looks，or your clothes，if you are judging yourself by these same 54 standards．Put your imperfections out of your mind and concentrate on what you value 55 yourself，and your beauty will shine through．

Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg，distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left, and I became increasingly impatient.
At one point along an open road, I came to a crossing with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now, but as I drove near the light, it turned red and I made a stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of car lamps, but there I sat, waiting for the light to change, the only human being for at least a mile in any direction.
I started wondering why I refused to run the light I was not afraid of being caught, because there was clearly no policeman around, and there certainly would have been no danger in going through it.
Much later that night, the question of why I'd stopped for that light came back to me. I think I
stopped because it's part of a contract(契约)we all have with each other. It's not only the law, but it is an agreement we have, and we trust each other to honor it: we don't go through red lights.
Trust is our first inclination(倾向).Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us. The whole construction of our society depends on mutual(相互)trust, not distrust. We do what we say we'll do; we show up when we say we'll show up; and we pay when we say we'll pay. We trust each other in these matters, and we're angry or disappointed with the person or organization that breaks the trust we have in them.
I was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night.
