A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present．On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office，a street urchin was walking around the shining car．“Is this your car，Paul？”he asked．

Paul answered，“Yes，my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised．“You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn't cost you anything？Boy，I wish…” He hesitated．

Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for．He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.

“I wish,” the boy went on，“that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car？”

“Oh yes，I'd love that．”

After a short ride，the boy turned and with his eyes shining，said，“Paul，would you mind driving in front of my house？”

Paul smiled a little．He thought he knew what the boy wanted．He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are？” the boy asked．

He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.

“There he is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a cent. And some day I'm going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I've been trying to tell you about.”

Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable holiday ride.

Because my family were not going to be helpful, I decided I would look for one all by myself and not tell them about it till I’d got one.

I had seen an agency advertised in a local newspaper. I rushed out of the 36 in search of it. I was wildly excited, and as  37 as if I were going on the stage. Finding the 38  quite easily, I ran breathlessly through a door which said “Enter without knocking, if you please.”

The simple atmosphere of the office 39  me. The woman looked carefully at me 40 through her glasses, and then 41  me in a low voice. I answered softly. All of a sudden I started to feel rather 42 ,She wondered why I was looking for this sort of 43  . I felt even more helpless, when she told me that it would be 44  to get a job without 45 .I wondered whether I ought to leave,  46  the telephone on her desk rang, I heard her say:“ 47  , I’ve got someone in the 48  at this very moment, who might 49  .” She wrote down a 50  , and held it out to me, saying: “Ring up this lady. She wants  a 51  immediately. In fact, you would have to start tomorrow by cooking a dinner for ten people.”
