The professor‘s house,big and untidy,stood alone at one end of a huge garden.The place was totally uncared for,quite 1 and overgrown with all sorts of useless things.I 2 my way through bushes and tall weeds to the front door and rang the bell.
I was glad that I had found him.In twenty minutes he 3 me right on all the 4 that had puzzled me.I was on the 5 of leaving when I looked out of his study window and said,―You‘re very fond of gardening,I see.‖
―No,I‘m not,‖ he said.― 6 ,I love this garden,though.It‘s 7 I always wanted it to be.I never touch it at all.‖
―It could be made lovely.It 8 a pity to let all this ground to go to waste.But perhaps you don‘t 9 that way?‖ said I.
―I don‘t.I lived here when I was a child,and I had 10 of gardening then.It was my father‘s hobby,you see.Unfortunately,he wasn‘t 11 enough to do it himself.My brother and I did all of it between us year after year.There was one right way and many wrong ways.Each blade （叶片）of grass was an enemy to be 12 by hand,not just cut off.I‘ve spent a good part of life at work here.‖
―I see.You took a dislike to it,and now you‘re getting even!‖
―I dislike it.Then,of course,I didn‘t understand the 13 it had.It used to 14 me.It appeared in my dreams—a mistake here,something not quite straight here,the enemy showing its head in a place I was 15 to have cleaned.The work was too much.It seemed endless.The size of the place was itself a fight to a boy.‖
―And now it‘s yours,you‘re just letting it go to… ‖
― 16 ?‖ he said.―No,I don‘t agree with that.This garden and I are now the best friends.I like 17 it grow 18 its own way.I make no demands on it.I never disturb it,and it never disturbs me.It has 19 at last,and so have I.‖
―But the path is over grown.It‘s inconvenient for you,isn‘t it?‖
―That‘s part of my 20 ,‖he laughed.―You can go out the back way.The weeds are shorter there because they don‘t get the sun.‖

When I was a college student,I did a lot of traveling abroad.That was because a professor
1 me to do so.She said,―Now is the time for you to travel around the world, 2 your knowledge through actual experiences and have fun!‖ I 3 her. Since I started to work for a 4 company,however,I have done most of my traveling through the Internet.By
using the Internet,I have seen the 5 of many cities on my computer screen.And I have really made business 6 ,too.With the help of the Internet,I have also got 7 about food in different countries.
Therefore,I was beginning to feel that actual trips were 8 necessary when I happened to read a famous chef‘s（厨师）comment on the Internet.He said,―It is very difficult to have real Italian food in a foreign country,because we enjoy food and the 9 around us at the same time.So why don‘t you fly over to Italy and enjoy real Italian 10 ?‖ Those words reminded me of my 11 advice.As information technology 12 ,you might be able to do without making some real trips.But this also means that you will miss the various 13 you can get from traveling.
Today there are people who 14 direct communication with others and spend much of their time on the Internet.It is not surprising to see a group of people 15 not with each other but into their micro phones.It seems as if such people are 16 by an invisible wall.They seem to be losing out on a good chance to 17 and talk with other people.I do not think that they are taking good advantage of information technology.We should use information technology as a tool to make our daily 18 more fruitful.However,we should never let it 19 our time for face-to-face communication.Let‘s make use of information technology more 20 ,and have great fun in experiencing the actual world.

The passengers on the bus watched sympathetically as the attractive young woman with the white cane made her way carefully up the steps. She paid the driver and, using her hands to 36 the location of the seats, walked down the aisle and found the seat he'd told her was 37 . Then she settled in, 38 her briefcase on her lap and rested her cane against her leg.
It had been a year since Susan, 34, became 39 . Due to a medical misdiagnosis, she was suddenly 40 into a world of darkness, anger, frustration and self-pity. Mark, her husband , 41 her to work each day, even though they worked at 42 ends of the city. Soon, however, Mark realized the arrangement wasn't 43 .Susan had to start taking the bus again. Just as he predicted, Susan was 44 at the idea of taking the bus again. \45 to know where I am going? I feel like you're abandoning me. \rely on her other 46 , specifically her hearing, to determine where she was and how to 47 to her new environment. Monday morning arrived, they went their 48 ways for the first time.
On Friday morning, Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was paying, the driver said, \ 49 you.\
The driver responded, \ 50 to be taken care of and protected like you are.\mean?\
The driver answered, \know, every morning for the past week, a fine- looking gentleman in a military uniform has been 51 across the corner watching you as you get off the bus. He makes sure you cross the street 52 and he watches until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a little salute and walks away.\Tears of happiness poured down Susan's cheeks. For 53 she couldn't physically see him, she had always felt Mark's presence. He had given her a gift more powerful than 54 , a gift she didn't need to see to 55 ——the gift of love that can bring light where there is darkness.
