7、We adopted Luke four years ago．The people from the orphanage（孤儿院）dropped him off at our hotel room without even saying  1  ．He was nearly six years old, only 28 pounds and his face was crisscrossed（交叉着）with scars．  2   ，he was terrified．Luke kicked and  3  ．His cries were animal-like．I  4 my alms around him so he could not hit or kick．After an hour and a half he finally fell asleep．exhausted．I called   5 . They delivered every noodle dish on the menu．After Luke woke up I handed him chopsticks and pointed at the food．He stopped crying and started to eat．

    That night we went for a walk．  6  at the moon，he pantomimed（打手势），“What is it?” I said，“The moon，it's the moon．”He   7  and tried to touch it．He reached again when I tried to give him a bath  8  I started to play with the water．By the end of his bath the room was soaked and he was   9  ．Then we read the book “One Yellow Lion”．He loved looking at the  10   pictures and 11   the pages．By the end of the night he was saying“  12  ”．

    The next day we  13  orphanage officials to do  14  ．Luke looked at them and wrapped my arms   15   around his waist．

It has been four years．Luke is a smart，funny, happy fourth-grader．He is   16  with charm and is a natural athlete．His teachers say he is  17  behaved and works very hard．Our neighbor says she has never seen a happier kid．

    When I think back，I am  18   at what transformed this abused，terrified little creature．It was not medications．It did not cost money．It was love: just simple，plain，easy to  19  ．It is comprised（组成）of compassion，care，security，and a leap of faith．I believe in the power of love to  20  ．I believe in the power of love to heal．
