A Beautiful Dress

My neighbor’s eight-year-old daughter used to live in the countryside, her native place. Recently her parents　 16　 her to town to live with them. Wild and uneducated, she would use　 17　 words when she was angry. Sometimes she went so far as to　 18　 on the ground, to the　 19　 of all people around. Her parents tried to　 20　 her by beating and kicking. However, she became more　 21　 . Finally they became thoroughly　 22　 with her.

　　　 One day their next-door　 23　 , a retired teacher, gave the girl a snow-white dress, which was very 　24　 . It immediately caught the girl’s　 25　 and made them shine brightly.

　　　 The girl put on the dress and became quite a　 26　 person. She no longer acted rudely or hit others. She　 27　 seldom rolled on the floor. She knew running wild was not　 28　 　for her in a beautiful dress. Since then, the girl had been　 29　 , neat, and lovely.

　　　 The story set me　 30　 a lot. Perhaps everyone has a beautiful dress　 31　 somewhere in his or her heart. Only some people are not aware of it,　 32　 it or take no notice of it.　 33　 is a powerful force or weapon - that’s something　 34　 by many of us. It can arouse fine qualities that humans are　 35　 with but have so far hidden somewhere. It has a soul-shaking influence that is indeed unmatched.
