Someone said that encouragement is simply reminding a person of the “shoulders” he’s standing on, the heritage he’s been given.

On the day he was leaving for the city, one of his coaches asked him what had caused such a turnaround. The young man replied it was the   49   remark the judge had   50   that day when his baseball career had seemed   51  .

“He told me I reminded him of all the times he had stood   52   my dad in the batter’s box,” the boy explained. “He said I was holding the bat just the way Dad had held it.   53   he told me, ‘I can see his genes in you; you have your father’s   54   .’ After that, whenever I swung the bat, I just   55   I was using Dad’s arms instead of my own.”

The Best Holiday
I was unbelievably proud of my nine-year-old daughter, Emily.  36  to buy a mountain bike, she’d been saving her pocket money all year, as well as doing small jobs to earn extra money.
By Thanksgiving , she had collected only $49. I said, “ You  37 have your pick from my bicycle  38  ”. “Thanks, Daddy. But your bikes are so old. ” She was right. All my girls’ bikes were 1950s models, not the kind a kid today would   39 choose.
As Christmas  40 near, Emily and I went bike shopping . As we left one store, she  41 a Salvation Army volunteer standing next to a big pot. “Can we give something, Daddy?” She asked. “Sorry, Em, I’m out of   42    . ”
Throughout December, Emily continued to work hard. Then one day, she made a  43 announcement. “You know all the money I’ve been saving?” she said hesitantly. “I’m going to give it to the poor people.” So one cold morning before Christmas, Emily handed her total savings of $58 to a volunteer who was really very  44   .
45  by Emily’s selflessness, I decided to contribute  46 of my old bicycles to a car dealer who was collecting used bikes for poor children.  47 I selected a shiny model from my collection, however, it seemed as if a second bike took on a glow. Should I contribute two? No, one would be enough. But I couldn’t  48  the feeling that I should give a second bike. When I later  49 the bikes, the car dealer said, “You’re making two kids very  50  , sir . Here are your tickets. For each bicycle contributed, we’re   51  away one chance to win a girl’s mountain bike. ”
Why wasn’t I surprised when that second ticket proved to be the 52   ? I like to think it was God’s way of  53  a little girl for a sacrifice  54  her year--while giving her dad a lesson in the  55  .

 An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money left. When she heard her daddy say to her  31  mother with whispered desperation（絕望）, “  32  a miracle（奇跡） can save him now”, the little girl went to her bedroom and took out her piggy bank. She   33  all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Then she   34  her way six blocks to the local drugstore（藥店）.

“And what do you want?” asked the chemist.

“It’s   35  my little brother,”  the girl answered back. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a   36   . His name is Andrew and he has something  37  growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him.”

“We don’t   38   miracles here, child．I’m sorry,” the chemist said, smiling   39  at the little girl.

In the shop was a   40  customer. He stooped (彎腰) down and asked the little girl, “What kind of miracle does your brother   41   ?”

“I don’t know,” she replied．“He’s really sick and mommy says he needs   42   . But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought my  43   .”

“How much do you have?” asked the man.

“One dollar and eleven cents,   44  I can try and get some more,”  she answered quietly.

That well dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon（外科醫生）. The operation was completed without  48  and it wasn’t long before Andrew was   49  again and doing well.
