    One Christmas, Celina received a special gift—a blue plastic piece. There is green, blue and faded mica(褪色的云母片)in it. It has the same {#blank#}1{#/blank#}as a hand mirror. It was similar to a kind of fish which looked {#blank#}2{#/blank#} useful nor beautiful. She thanked, and forgot it.

    One day. Celina {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the dining room. When she took down the box from the bookcase, the strange gift was found. This time she noticed a hook(钩)at one end, and there were several{#blank#}4{#/blank#} on the bottom of the box: Hang on a {#blank#}5{#/blank#}window.

    Then Celina went to the kitchen, hung this gift on a window with the sunshine pouring in all day. To {#blank#}6{#/blank#}surprise，amazing colorful light came into the kitchen. Through the little blue mica colors turned{#blank#}7{#/blank#}green to dark blue，and then to purple …just like the fantastic sea waves. She had {#blank#}8{#/blank#} thought such a small strange gift could lead to a beautiful sea world. On Christmas day Celina didn't find that kind of beauty. But at the moment she understood: a common thing will be so beautiful as long as you make use of it {#blank#}9{#/blank#}.

    The gift has been hung on the window. Every day it reminds her that she should {#blank#}10{#/blank#}some time finding the beauty hidden in people and gifts, it's an important lesson for her.
