The girl's eyes began to grow wide as she saw the man in his8clothes.She asked him to sing,with no9of danger in her voice.This shocked the man.He sang for the girl with joy in his eyes.Although it was nice to be 10to sing,it was also nice to have an audience.He sang until they heard the girl's mother11for her.The girl quickly said12and ran off.

    The girl returned the next day and asked him to sing.13he sang for the little girl.After a few songs,she left14the call of her mother.She came the day after,with an older woman.This was the girl's15.She did not seem to mind being led behind a16dustbin.The girl asked the beggar to sing.The man sang his heart out for the17of them to hear.The mother's frown began to18and a smile began to appear.The days after were full of cheerful singing and the audience of two19,they would bring more people to listen.The beggar continued to sing until he could not sing anymore.20he loved his voice anymore.

    My fiancé and I were excited about shopping for our first home. But our funds were1and none of the houses in our price range seemed satisfactory.

    One agent2a house in particular. Although her description sounded wonderful, the price was3our range, so we declined. But she kept urging us to have a look4.

    We finally did and it was5at first sight. It was Our Home, small and charming, overlooking a quiet lake. Walking through the rooms and talking with the owners, a nice elderly couple, we felt the warmth and6of the marriage within that home. As perfect as it was, the price remained too high for us. But every day, we would sit by the lake, looking at the house and dreaming of7it would be like to live there.

    Days later, we made a(n)8—far below the asking price. Surprisingly, they didn't9us. They renewed their offer10. It was also much more than we could afford, but far11than the original asking price.

    The next day, we got a12message that another buyer had offered a much higher price. Even so, we decided to talk with the13directly. We made our final offer, which14was thousands of dollars less than the other buyer's bid. We knew it,15we had to try.

     “Sold!” said the owner. Then he16: He'd seen us sitting by the lake all those times; he knew how much we loved the place and that we'd17the years of work they had put into their home; he realized he would take a18by selling it to us, but it was worthwhile; we were the people they wanted to live there. He told us to consider the19in the price “an early wedding present。“

    That's how we found our home and how I learned that when people are20they are not strangers, only friends we haven't yet met.

    Sometimes, a mother just recognizes her child, even when the two have never met. That's how Devon Toomey felt in 2013 when she 1 a photograph on a website for an international adoption agency.

    Toomey had been on the site many times and seen 2 many kids, but she'd never determined to email the agency about anyone 3 she saw one baby born without arms and legs. "4 seeing him, I just knew he was our child. There was just something that spoke to me," she says.

    Today, four years later, that boy, named Bowen Toomey, is a 5-year-old 5 with two older brothers living in Eagle, Idaho. He is 6 on going to school, jumping on trampolines（蹦床）, reading books and 7 himself to difficult tasks.

    But his 8 disability means he can't live 9 like others: Where other children use their 10to handle things, Bowen sometimes uses his mouth or a special band he wears that lets him 11 things like a spoon.

    "He does everything any other kids do: he just finds his way to 12 various problems. He can ride his skate already," his mother says. "He 13 loves to swim, and can dive and swim independently. I think he loves it so much 14the water is the place where he really doesn't have limitations."

    A former special education teacher, Toomey and her husband, Jeremy, knew they wanted to adopt. Nine months after she 15 Bowen on the website of a Serbian orphanage（孤儿院）, 16 in Belgrade, the entire family went there to take home their 18-month-old addition.

    Although Bowen had been well taken care of at the orphanage, he didn't get much attention, and for the most part he was just laid in the bed.

    The young boy 17 to his new family in a way 18 he surprised everyone. "We laid eyes on him and from that moment on, he 19 joyful, which really touched our hearts," she says, "I said to myself, 20 is no wonder that I wanted him the moment I saw him'. He is my child."

    I was about to get on a plane after a trip. Honestly speaking, the trip was very 1 and exhausting. To make things worse, I had a middle seat in Zone 5, where they 2 the baggage because there wasn't much room in the overhead bins (行李架).

    I had to ask the flight attendant if I could 3 my seat. Trying to be 4, she asked if I was willing to sit in an exit row. "Yes, sure!" I 5 responded, full of hope. But a moment later, she told me that row might not be 6. I could only accept the reality.

    Suddenly I heard her offer two seats in the exit row 7 a young couple next to me. I was filled with 8 that I was ready to get up and 9 with her. I wondered how she could 10 me and then go to help others. I was about to shout at her, 11 my good sense won. For that belief moment, I tried to comfort myself. "If you are impatient, you'll make a 12 of yourself." Then though I was still annoyed, I managed to 13.

    With about 5 minutes to board, when I was worried about how to keep my 14, the attendant handed a new ticket to me. "Is this for the 15 seat?" I asked. "No, it isn't," she responded. "Once in a while I'm able to do this and I'm glad it has 16 this time." glanced down—business class, Seat 2F—no charge! I was very 17 for that and I felt relived that I had 18 my anger. I do know even if I shouted at the attendant, she would 19 try hard to help me, because she seemed very responsible. Now I realize that it is always important to show 20 and understanding for others in life.

The popularity of ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River, such as Zhouzhuang and Wuzhen, has aroused a nationwide trend in the construction of ancient towns. Lin Peng, the director of China's Institute of Ancient Cities and Cultural Studies, pointed {#blank#}1{#/blank#} that there are more than 2,800 developed or developing ancient towns in our country, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} is definitely the highest number globally.

In ancient towns, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} immersive（沉浸式） experience being mentioned here is historical and cultural characteristics—the "ancient" of ancient towns. Apart from visible "special buildings", characteristics also include invisible "culture". Tourists in ancient towns want to see the living {#blank#}4{#/blank#} （condition） of local people, feel the vitality of town life, try characteristic local snacks {#blank#}5{#/blank#} （influence） by geography and folk customs, and understand how long history {#blank#}6{#/blank#} （shape） local culture. Out of modern fast-paced work and life, tourists want to awaken their inner softness with a slow-moving ancient town.

Touring ancient towns is for recreation, relaxation, and pleasure, {#blank#}7{#/blank#} if all the ancient towns in different places are the same and cannot find their own {#blank#}8{#/blank#} （unique）, then ancient town tourism will {#blank#}9{#/blank#} （eventual） decline. Let every ancient town become a unique historical imprint（印记）, so that tourists can find their "poetry and distance" while {#blank#}10{#/blank#} （wander） through the ancient towns. This is the soul that ancient towns need to regain.
