举一反三
    I've loved my mother's desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat doing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.
    Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she'd said again, “it's for Elizabeth.”
    I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter
    They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface”.
    As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me.
    I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.
    My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace—it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn't be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.
    Now the present of her desk told, as she'd never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside-- a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded(折叠) and refolded many times.
    Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.

Only a Ribbon

    In one of the London hospitals,a short time ago,there was a young doctor. He noticed one of the patients,a ten-year-old poor girl called Katie,who had a very painful illness.

    Katie lay in her bed,day after day,with nothing to help her forget her pain and cheer up. One day the doctor noticed her trying to make a doll of her finger, and speaking to it. But she was soon tired of it,and lay back into her bed.

    That afternoon,the young doctor saw a beautiful ribbon in a shop window. He thought that it might help cheer the little girl up,so he went in and bought it for her. When he handed the ribbon to the girl,she was too surprised to speak. There were tears in her eyes. This little gift made her feel rich and happy.

    The nurse later told the doctor that the girl played with the ribbon all day long. She twisted(盘绕)it round her head. She held it in her hand while she slept.

    Some weeks later,Katie's illness became worse,and it was necessary to perform a dangerous operation. When Katie was brought into the operation mom,she cried out for the young doctor. He was brought,and he held one of the girl's hands,while the other tightly held the ribbon.

    During the operation,the ribbon fell off Katie's hand. As soon as she woke up and opened her eyes,she looked at her friend and said in a low voice,“My ribbon.”The doctor gave it to her and she smiled happily.

    It was only a little gift,but it made the girl's stay in the hospital bright with beauty and love.
