Emilio Santana is a fourteen-year-old boy. He is a ninth grader. He spends two hours a day playing 1 every day. He has been preparing 2 something since the third grade. 

He was at the beach. A little girl at the beach was going to the 3 . She took her hat off and her hair went with 4 . She was so 5 and felt embarrassed (尴尬的), and that picture 6 in Emilio's mind for a long time. The young girl's struggle (挣扎) 7 him to do something helpful. He started keeping his 8 to help sick children. They have lost their hair because of illness. 

For many years, Emilio grew his hair 9 one goal (目标) in mind: to give it to people who need it and truly help someone. "Knowing that I could 10 a big part in somebody else's life and bring joy to them, it made me want to change other people's lives into 11 ones," he explained. 

Growing his hair wasn't always 12 . Emilio faced difficulties because he is an athlete (运动员). Keeping long hair while being active in sports was very difficult. He also heard bad words from 13 . "Even when I got some words like 'boys shouldn't have long hair' and things like that, I decided to do it because I get to see 14 smile and make his or her life better." Emilio said. 

He kept going even though he met many difficulties, and he 15 made his dream come true. His hair has been given to children with hair loss (脱发) for free.

Be What's Missing

Where was that cashier(收银员)? Impatient, I quickly looked at my 1 . I hardly had enough time to eat a sandwich and rush back to work. I looked around the nearly empty 2 , but the cashier was nowhere in sight. A woman stood wiping( 擦 ) the far end of the counter( 柜 台 ). She3 me coldly with sad, dark eyes.

I4 , getting angry. I'd been standing there for at least three minutes!

Controlling my anger, I remembered Mom's words. "5 you find yourself in an unpleasant situation, just think about what is missing. If someone is unkind, then kindness is missing. If someone is hateful, then6 is missing. If we will be what's missing, then we'll7 whatever the situation needs."

And here I was in an unpleasant situation. How should I "be what's missing"? What was missing was8 . Maybe I should just jump behind the counter and take9 own order.

Just then the woman walked slowly towards me. "May I help you?" she asked, still10 . She looked so tired. No doubt, she was overworked.

I took a deep breath. With Mom's words ringing in my11 , I gave the woman my order and smiled, "How are you today?"

My question seemed to12 her. She eyed me for a second before answering. "Not too good."

"I'm sorry," I said. "I hope it gets better starting right now." She almost smiled as she looked at me. "Thanks. I hope you're right."

I thought to myself as I ate my sandwich. We're all the same, really. We have problems and anger, we get tired and we hurt. We need to be13 to each other.

After14 , I wiped the table cleaner than usual, and put the tray(托盘) back nicely on the stand. The woman was watching me, a big smile on her face.

"Be what's missing." It15 .
