A young man was about to finish school. For a long time he had　 26　 to get a beautiful sports car. He knew his father could well　 27　 it, so he told him that a sports car was all he wanted.

　　　　 Then on the morning of his graduation（毕业）,he was called to his father’s room. His father told him how　 28　 he was to have such a fine son, and told him how　 29　 he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful gift box. 30 , the young man opened the box and found a lovely Bible（圣经）with his name on it. Angrily, he raised his　 31　 to his father and said, “With all your money you give me a Bible? ” He then　 32　 out of the house, leaving the Bible.

　　　 　Many years passed and the young man was very　 33　 in business, and had a beautiful home and a wonderful family. 34　 that his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him　 35　 that graduation day. Before he could go, he received a　 36　 telling him that his father had died. He had to go home immediately and take　 37　 of the things that his father left him.

　　　　 When he began to search through his father’s important

papers, he saw the still new Bible,　 38　　 as he had left

it years ago. He opened the Bible and began to　　 39

the pages. As he was reading, a car key with a tag（标牌）

dropped from the back of the Bible. On the tag was the

40　　 of his graduation, and the words “PAID IN

FULL”. Sadness and regret（悔恨）filled his heart.

The hard work of 　24 out of the cocoon makes the fluid(液体) from the butterfly’s body into its wings. It helps the butterfly be 　25 to fly. If the butterfly never has to squeeze(挤压) itself out of the cocoon, its wings will never get the fluid and it can never fly.
