“I’m really thankful to our government, for it provides us with such a good training program. The training greatly helps us live well. I will certainly study hard and learn the skills. Then I can 41] my family difficulties and do good to other people.” a learner on the job training program said, feeling 42:

The learner’s grandfather is nearly 80 years old, and his mother is 43] in bed. So his father, who is a father, is the main 44] of the family. The family is poor. The learner graduated from high school and did not 45] the college entrance exam. The job training program helps him learn the skills that he’ll 46] in the workplace.

The story reminds me of another 47: It goes like this: Once upon a time, there was a man who liked fishing very much, and was 48] to catch lots of fish every day. The man was a kind-hearted person, so he always 49] his fish with his neighbors who did not know how to fish. One day, he thought that it would be 50] if he taught them how to fish. So he 51] his neighbors tighter and showed how to fish. Everybody was very happy that they could 52] the fish they themselves caught.

At present, there are still a lot of poor people throughout the world. But it’s not good if we give only 53] to them. 54], we should give them a chance to learn new skills. Therefore, a technical training is very important to people in need, and they will learn the ability to 55] money. People can learn a lot of useful things in the training program and what learn can help them on the way to find jobs.

　 When his mother came in, 45 shouting at him, she said, “Robert, what a great mess(一团糟) you have made! I have never seen such a big puddle(水坑) of milk. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes 　46 we clean it up?”

　 Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said, “Robert, when you make a mess like this, you have to clean it up at last. So, 　47 would you like to do that? We would use a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer?” He chose the towel and together they cleaned up the milk.

　 His mother then said, “We had a failed 48 in how to carry a big milk bottle with two small hands in the kitchen. Let’s go out and fill the bottle with water and see if you can 49 a way to carry it without dropping it.” The little boy learned that if he held the bottle at the top near the lip(杯口) with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it.

It is very important to stay healthy. I have a neighbor. She is an old lady. She can do all the housework, __41__ newspapers, watch TV and search on the Internet to learn something new. I often see __42__ do taijiquan in the morning and dance in the evening. She looks young and beautiful __43__ she is over seventy. Last week a reporter from a magazine interviewed her and asked __44__ she kept so young and healthy. She replied with a smile:I have a secret of staying young and healthy. It is quite __45__ keep your mind active，take an interest in the world __46__ you, and learn at least one new thing every day. Try to do different kinds of housework and do sports as __47__ you can. Don’t think you are too old to go back to __48__. I know a man who entered a medical college when he was 70 years old. He studied there for 6 years and now he is a doctor. Another man went to a tennis school at the age of 71 and now he is good at __49__ tennis. Some people may say staying young is easy only for those who live in the future.

About ten years ago when I was a student at college, I spent my summer holidays 35 a museum. 　36 was hard for me then. Dad had lost his job and Mum was ill in bed. I was 37 if I would be able to go on with my study the next term.

　 One day while I was working, I saw an old man come in with a little girl 38 a wheelchair. As I looked 39 at this girl, I found that she had no arms　 40 legs. She was wearing a little white dress and she 41 had a hat on.

　 As the old man pushed the wheelchair up to me, I was busy with my work. I 42 my head toward the girl and gave her a wink ( 眨眼). When I took the money from her grandfather, I looked back at the girl, who was giving me the prettiest, largest smile I have 43 seen. Suddenly her handicap(生理缺陷) was 44 and all I saw was this beautiful girl, whose smile almost gave me a better understanding of what life is all about. She brought me into her 45 of smiles, love and warmth.

　 I'm now a successful businessman and 46 I get down and think about the trouble of the world, I think about that little girl and the unforgettable lesson about life that she taught me.
