Every year, when the Nobel Prize winner list is made public, there are some certain winners who are labeled as unexpected and surprised. This year, as an American musician, Bob Dylan won the Nobel Prize in Literature. Undoubtedly, he made full expressions of that label as he is the first musician winning this prize.

On the contrary, the modern Japanese writer Murakami Haruki felt sad again even though there is strong support for him. As a favorite candidate(候选人), Murakami Haruki just narrowly missed the Nobel Prize again. Luckily, he is very positive—- readers are the most important and it doesn't matter whether winning a prize or not.

And Nobel Prize awards the words(授予颁奖词) for Bob Dylan—-for having created new poetic expressions in the great American song tradition.

On February 9th, 2013, Sarah Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man named Billy Ray Harris. She reached into her purse, emptied out all the coins she had and gave them to the homeless man. Neither of them realized that this small act would change their lives. 

Sarah didn't realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring (钻戒) that she had put in her purse earlier until the following morning. She and her husband, Bill Krejci, rushed to see if they could find Billy. The homeless man was not only in the same place, he also immediately returned the ring. The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying out their pockets of all the money they had. 

Bill Krejci, a web designer, felt that he needed to do something more for this honest man. So on February 18th, he set up a special page to raise money for him. In just four days, Billy received over $85, 000 and there seems to be no end yet. 

That is not enough. Billy is living with a person who is generous (慷慨的) instead of living in the streets. And that's not all—thanks to the news report, he got together again with his older brother, Edwin Harris, who he had been unable to find for 27 years. 

All the good luck is just because Billy did the right thing—returning something that did not belong to him. 

 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

In a heartwarming event(事件) that shows the power of human connection, a woman's act of kindness saved the life of a 1 man.

During a break between classes, Casey Fischer stopped at Dunkin Donuts for a coffee. It was there that she saw a man 2 change by the roadside. Later, she watched him walk into Dunkin, counting his change to see what he could buy.

Casey went over to talk to him and learned that he had only about $1 in change. Touched by his 3 situation, she bought him a 4 and a cake and invited him to sit with her. He told her that he lost his family in an accident and how people are usually 5 to him because he's homeless. They talked for about a(n) 6 , drinking their coffees.

After realizing that Casey needed to go back to class, the man, named Chris, asked her to wait so he could 7 things for her. Handing Casey a note with an apology(道歉) for his 8 handwriting, he smiled and left.

Upon opening the note, Casey read his sincere message: "I wanted to end my life today, but because of you, I now have 9 . Thank you, beautiful person."

Casey's simple actions of buying food and chatting with Chris gave him what he 10 most. It shows that we can all do something nice for others. Let's be encouraged by Casey and be kind to those around us.
