I was flying to New York at night. Suddenly, a storm broke and the plane began to be tossed（颠簸)around. 

      When I looked   1   the plane, I could see that nearly all the passengers were worried and afraid. The future seemed terrible and many were    2     if they would make it through the storm.

      Then , I    3    saw a little girl. It seemed that the storm meant   4    to her. She sat on her seat reading a book. Sometimes she closed her eyes, then she would read again, with no    5    or fear in her eyes. When the other passengers were scared（惊恐的) half to death, that child was completely calm and    6   . I couldn’t believe my eyes.

     When the plane finally reached New York, I was not surprised to   7     that all the passengers were hurrying to come out. I stopped and spoke to the girl whom I had   8     for such a long time. I asked    9     she had not been afraid. 

     The child replied, “My daddy is the   10    , and he is taking me home.”

It was the beginning of a new term. As a     1     teacher in that school, I didn’t know any of the students. A little girl was standing at the gate of the classroom. She looked very shy.

I walked up to her and     2     why she stood there. But she said nothing. Then a boy shouted, “She is from Grade Four, the worst student in her grade.” I looked at the little girl. She didn’t seem to be the smart kind. I     3     why her teacher asked her to stay in Grade Three. I took her hand and     4     her into the classroom. 

“Sit here. Now you are my student and I’m your teacher,” I said. She still said nothing, but suddenly began to cry.

I later learnt that her parents died in a car accident. She became sad and didn’t like talking to others after that. 

She learnt very     5    . I gave her respect（尊重) and never looked down upon （鄙视) her as I know everybody deserves（值得) respect. I helped her after school, and she was making     6     little b y little. As time went by, she was not as    7    as before. At the end of the term, she seemed to have forgotten all her sadness. She was not among the best students when she left that school, but     8   , she was not that shy and sad little girl any more. 

In the following     9    , she would send me a card on each Thanksgiving Day. Three days ago, I     10     an invitation to her wedding（婚礼). And now, I am at her wedding, and she is smiling brightly.

Everyone deserves respect and everyone can be happy.

   It was the first time that my wife and I had flown first class. As we boarded the plane, we felt as if （好像) we were   1   of a wealthy group. We were filled with a sense of pride at   2  with those important people. 

   We   3   that the stewardess （空姐) was working non-stop to make sure of the comfort of the first class passengers. She could not walk by a seat   4   being given an order. I thought she must love her job very much, since she gave each person such a big    5   . 

   As the stewardess    6    our seats near the end of the flight, I looked up at her and said, “Thank you and I hope you have a great night.” She stopped with a look of disbelief on her face, and said: “Excuse me？” I    7   my words and she smiled in a rather funny way. It seemed as if I had asked a question that she did not know how to   8  . A little later, as we were getting off the plane, the stewardess said to me: “Thank you very much, sir.” Then she said   9   : “You are the only passenger who has thanked me or said anything nice to me all night. I really appreciate your kindness.” 

   The sense of belonging to an elite（精英) group in first class   10   as soon as I heard those words. We were reminded that without kindness, there would be no first-class flying.

Once when Kevin was selling hats under a big tree, the monkeys on the tree picked some hats and put them on. So Kevin took off his own hat and threw  1   on the ground. The stupid monkeys threw their hats, too! Kevin soon   2   all the hats and left happily. 

   Fifty years later, young Tony,   3   of Kevin, also sold hats for a living.   4   a long walk, Tony was tired, so he put his bag of hats beside him and laid down under a big tree. He was soon fast   5  .

   When he woke up, Tony found that there weren’t any hats in his bag! Tony started looking for his hats. To his   6  , he found some monkeys on the tree wearing his hats.

   Tony didn’t know what to do. Then he remembered the story his grandfather   7   used to tell him. “Yes! I can fool these monkeys!” said Tony. “I’ll   8   them imitate （模仿) me and very soon I will get all my hats back!” 

   Tony then waved at the monkeys, the monkeys waved at him. Tony started dancing, the monkeys were also dancing. Tony threw his hat on the ground…

   Just then, one of the monkeys jumped down   9   the tree, picked up the hat Tony threw on the ground and   10   up to Tony. He said, “Do you think only you had a grandfather？”
