Charles Plumb, a U.S. Naval Academy graduate, was a jet fighter pilot in Vietnam. After 75 combat missions, his plane was     by a surface-to-air missile. Plumb was     and spent six years in prison in Vietnam. He survived and now      about lessons learned from that experience.

　　One day, Plumb and his wife were sitting in a restaurant when a man at another table came up and said, "You're Plumb! You    jet fighters in Vietnam from the aircraft carrier (航空母舰) Kitty Hawk . You were      !"

"How in the world did you know that?" asked Plumb.

　　"I      your parachute," the man replied. Plumb gasped（倒吸一口气） in surprise and     .The man pumped his hand and said, "I guess it worked!"

Plumb assured him, "It     did—if your chute hadn't worked, I wouldn't be here today."

Plumb couldn't sleep that night，thinking about that man. He says, "I wondered how many times I might have passed him      the Kitty Hawk. I wondered how many times I might have seen him and not even said 'Good morning, how are you', or anything     , you see, I was a fighter pilot and he was just a      ."

Plumb thought of the many days the sailor had spent on a long wooden table in the bowels（深处）of the ship      working on each chute, holding in his hands each time the      of someone he didn't know.

　　Plumb asks his      , "Who's packing your     ? Everyone has someone who provides what they need to make it      the day." Plumb also says that he needed many kinds of parachutes when his plane was shot down—he needed his      parachute, his mental parachute, his emotional parachute, and his spiritual parachute. He called on all these      before reaching safety. His experience reminds us all to     and be kind to people who pack our daily parachutes, and strengthen us to go through      times.

I was doing some last-minute Christmas shopping in a toy store. A nicely dressed little girl was  36   the teddy bears beside her father  37  she saw a little boy walk in and stop in front of the Pokémon toys. His jacket was obviously too small. He had money in his hand.   38  , it looked no more than five dollars at most. He was with his father as well, and  39  picking up the Pokémon video games. Each time he showed one to his father, his father  40   his head, “No”.

Rather  41  , the boy gave up the video games and chose a book of stickers  42  . After they walked away, the little girl ran over to the Pokémon video games. She excitedly picked up one  43   on top of the others, and ran toward the check-out. I picked up my purchases(购买物) and  44  the girl and her father.

Then, much to the little girl’s  45  , the little boy and his father got in line  46  her and me. After the video was paid for and bagged, the little girl  47  it back to the cashier(收银员) and  48   something to her. The cashier smiled and put the  49  under the counter(柜台). I was putting things in my bag when the little boy came up to the cashier. The cashier said, “  50  , you’re my hundredth customer today, and you win a prize!” and she handed the boy the Pokémon game. The boy could only   51   in disbelief. It was, he said,   52  what he had wanted! The little girl and her father had been standing at the doorway, and I saw the biggest and  53  smile on that little girl I have ever seen in my life.

I suddenly understood that the world is not  54  into the strong who care and the  55  who are cared for. We must each in turn care and be cared.
