    Mary, a 22-year-old young woman, stands in the kitchen of Edsa Shangri-La Hotel in Manila，preparing a cake. It would seem to be1for a cook, but Mary is not normal. She has no hands.

    Her disability(残疾), however, only slows her down while working. Using other parts of her body, Mary can cut grapes and strawberries into pieces. "When I first saw Mary, I was worried she might hurt herself when using a knife, but that has never been a2,"says the boss of the hotel. "She does not get special treatment and works just as hard as the rest of the cooks."

    Mary has come a long way since the day in September 2002 when she and her uncle were attacked by two men, who were trying to force her family off their land. The 11-year-old girl passed out(晕倒) as she tried to3herself from the attack. After she came to her sense, she found her uncle dead and saw her arms broken. Later, the doctors did an operation. They saved her life but could not save her hands.

    In 2006, with the help of the family, Mary went to live at House with No Steps, a Manila rehabilitation(康复) and training centre for disabled people. She learned how to write and do housework there. And more4, she became used to her disability. She believed she could live a normal life although she was disabled. She thought she had something important to do in life because she was5alive after the terrible attack. After she finished high school, she took a two-year Hotel and Restaurant Management course because she had enjoyed cooking since she was a little girl.

    Mary didn't shy away from the attention when she was reported on television. "I wanted others living with disabilities to believe it's6to live a normal life," Mary says. "It is difficult to make a living, but I don't lose hope. I believe nothing is impossible if you dream and work hard."

We all know that family life is very important for a person. If a kid is well treated by his parents, he will grow up happily. Bob Courtright is a good example. Deeply committed to his family, Bob Courtright will be remembered as a loving and selfless man forever. Born with an optimistic personality, he was always the one to look on the bright side and made everyone he met feel comfortable. Equipped with a set of skills, an ability to please others, and a strong sense of adventure, Bob lived his life to the fullest. He left behind a rich collection of wonderful memories for his friends and family.

Bob's life story began in 1937 when the Golden Gate Bridge opened, which gave Americans renewed pride and faith in the economy after a hard period at that time. Having moved several times during his childhood, his family eventually settled on the south side of their city.

With a strong desire to make a living on his own, Bob eventually dropped out of school to pursue（追求）a career in painting, leading him to a lifetime of success as a master painter and tradesman. He also served as a doctor in the army. Besides, he took an interest in roller skating and enjoyed competing as a roller skating dancer. He made many friends along the way and enjoyed filling each of his days to the fullest.

As a father, Bob was patient and supportive. He enjoyed his role as a father and always encouraged his children to lead a life of honesty and service.

He also tried hard to be a strong role model in their lives. He and his wife worked together to teach their children the value of hard work and faith in life.

Once there was a very helpful man. He would help anyone 1 wanting anything in return. 

One day, when walking along a dusty road, the man saw a wallet, so he 2 the wallet. But he found it was 3 Suddenly a woman and a policeman appeared and caught him. The woman kept on asking where her wallet was, but the man answered, "It was empty 4 I found it. " The woman shouted at him, "Please give it back to me, and it's my son's tuition（学费）. "The woman felt sad so he handed over all his money. Then she left and the policeman asked him more 5 . 

One day while the woman was going to her son's school, she noticed that 6 was walking behind her. She thought that he 7 rob（抢劫） her, so she walked to a policeman. He was the same policeman that helped her before. The woman told him the man following her. They ran to him, and found that he was the same man that they caught a few days ago. 

He looked very weak and the woman was 8 . The policeman said to the woman, "He wasn't the thief that day, but having heard about your situation（情况） he gave you his money."

Then the man told the woman, "Please go ahead and pay your son's tuition. I saw you and 9 you to make sure that nobody would steal your money again." The woman was too moved to say anything. 

Life may give you a strange experience: sometimes it shocks you, 10 sometimes it may also surprise you. Be kind and learn to appreciate what you are given.
