Last winter, when I was heavily pregnant, I was visiting my sister and brother-in-law's house and had to park in a nearby parking lot because they didn't have accessible parking. The snow was extremely heavy and there was lots of ice on the ground --- not many people had ventured out that evening!

When I returned to my car around 11pm, I noticed that I was the only car left. Nervously, I hopped into the car and let it warm up a bit. When I finally tried to drive away, my wheels began to spin. I was stuck! I spun and spun and wondered what to do.

All of a sudden, in my rear view mirror, I saw four teen-aged boys approaching my car. They were walking side by side in a line and dressed a bit like gang members --- at least I thought that's what they looked like. My car was in a very isolated area and I began to panic. I was certain they were coming to my car to harm me. Terrified, I just froze. One of the young men tapped on my window and said "Excuse me, Ma'am, can we help you? You seem stuck." Still afraid and fearing the worst, I said "I am stuck." And the young man said "It's okay, stay in your car and we'll push you out of the snow." And they did!

When they finally got me out of the snow, they smiled and waved. I rolled down my window and thanked them, embarrassed to have judged them so poorly.

One day Marilla said, “Anne, your new teacher, Miss Stacy, spoke to me yesterday. She says you must study for the examinations for Queen’s College in two years’ time. Then if you do well, you can study at Queen’s in Charlottetown for a year, and after that you’ll be a teacher!”

“That doesn’t matter, Anne. When Matthew and I adopted you three years ago, we decided to look after you as well as we could. Of course we’ll pay for you to study.”So in the afternoons Anne and some of her friends stayed late at school, and Miss Stacy helped them with the special examination work. Diana didn’t want to go to Queen’s, so she went home early, but Gilbert stayed. He and Anne still never spoke and everybody knew that they were enemies, because they both wanted to be first in the examination. Secretly, Anne was sorry that she and Gilbert weren’t friends, but it was too late now.

For two years, Anne studied hard at school. She enjoyed learning, and Miss Stacy was pleased with her. But she didn’t study all the time. In the evenings and at weekends she visited her friends, or walked through the fields with Diana, or sat talking to Matthew.

“Your Anne is a big girl now. She’s taller than you,” Rachel Lynde told Marilla one day.

“You’re right, Rachel!” said Marilla in surprise.

“And she’s a very good girl now, isn’t she? She doesn’t get into trouble these days. I’m sure she helps you a lot with the housework, Marilla.”

“Yes, I don’t know what I’d do without her,” said Marilla, smiling.

“And look at her! Those beautiful grey eyes, and that red-brown hair! You know, Marilla, I thought you and Matthew made a mistake when you adopted her. But now I see I was wrong. You’ve looked after her very well.”

“Well, thank you, Rachel,” replied Marilla, pleased.

That evening, when Matthew came into the kitchen, he saw that his sister was crying.

“What’s the matter?” he asked, surprised. “You haven’t cried since… well, I can’t remember when.”

“It’s just… well, I was thinking about Anne,” said Marilla. “I’ll…I’ll miss her when she goes away.”

“When she goes to Queen’s, you mean? Yes, but she can come home at weekends, on the train.”

“I’ll still miss her,” said Marilla sadly.”

In June the Avonlea boys and girls had to go to Charlottetown to take their examinations.

“Oh, I do hope that I’ve done well,” Anne told Diana when she arrived back at Green Gables. “The examinations were very difficult. And I’ve got to wait for three weeks before I know! Three weeks! I’ll die!”

Anne wanted to do better than Gilbert. But she also wanted to do well for Matthew and Marilla. That was very important to her.

Diana was the first to hear the news, she ran into the kitchen at Green Gables and shouted, “Look, Anne! It’s in Father’s newspaper! You’re first… with Gilbert… out of all the students on the island! Oh, how wonderful!” Anne took the paper with shaking hands, and saw her name, at the top of the list of two hundred. She could not speak.

“Well, now, I knew it,” said Matthew with a warm smile.

“You’ve done well, I must say, Anne,” said Marilla, who was secretly very pleased.

For the next three weeks Anne and Marilla were very busy. Anne needs new dresses to take to Charlottetown.

It was black in the evening. Andy, a 12-year-old boy was unwilling to go outside. But his mother, Lilly, was worried about his father and  36  he go.
About an hour ago, the husband said he had to  37 his car outside their house. ___38  enough, it seemed that the wife hadn’t heard a single  39 for a long time.
“Go and have a look. What on earth is he doing?” she said to Andy.
The boy walked out and called into the darkness “Dad?”
“Andy?”  40 was his father, who spoke slowly, in a strange way. Actually, his voice sounded  41 .   
That evening, when the man had to get  42 the car to fix it, he used a forklift to lift the car. 43   , the man didn’t place the blocks in front of the car’ s front tires to keep it from  44  forward off the forks, which was exactly  45 it did afterwards.
Little Andy saw his dad’s feet  46 out from beneath the car.  47 to take a full breath, his father sank into a sleepy, half-alive  48 .
“Keep calm, mum. Everything will be all right.” The boy  49 the scared mother.
He climbed on and tried to do something to help. Finally, the car started to come off the ground and hung in the   50 .

It wasn’t  52 his dad was carried into an ambulance heading for the hospital that the little boy  53  and couldn’t help crying.
Andy says one satisfying change has come out of the  54 : he is able to spend more time with his dad, who hasn’t touched a car 55 his car fell on him.

Several weeks ago, my friend advised us to sell some of our things which we will not use any more. I thought it was a good chance to  46  my 7-year-old son’s room and  47  some toys that were no longer suitable for him to play with. We  48  that all the money we got from selling the toys would be his money.

The night before the  49 , we loaded up the truck with toys and a little bike that was too  50  for him. In the yard he  51  the bike for the last time and then happily put it onto the truck. This little bike had at least two previous owners as far as we  52  . It wasn’t in the best  53  and was certainly not new, but the tires were  54  good.

We put a price of $10 on it, but it didn’t sell. So, after the sale was  55  , my friend put it on the sidewalk with a sign that  56  “FREE BIKE”. Within five minutes her doorbell rang. A little boy was   57  there. In poor English he asked whether the bike was  58  free. She said yes and that he could have it for  59  . He smiled, got on the bike and rode away.

Later that evening when I told my son how much money he had made at the sale, he was very  60  , shouting happily. He asked about a few of his things, wondering  61  they had been sold. When he asked about the bike, I told him about the little boy and that made him  62  . He was much happier than when I told him how much he had  63  . He was so happy to  64  that someone else would make good  65  of that little bike!
