Charles Plumb, a U.S. Naval Academy graduate, was a jet fighter pilot in Vietnam. After 75 combat missions, his plane was   36  by a surface-to-air missile. Plumb was   37  and spent six years in prison in Vietnam. He survived and now   38  about lessons learned from that experience.
One day, Plumb and his wife were sitting in a restaurant when a man at another table came up and said, "You're Plumb! You   39  jet fighters in Vietnam from the aircraft carrier (航空母艦) Kitty Hawk . You were   40  !"
"How in the world did you know that?" asked Plumb.
"I   41  your parachute," the man replied. Plumb gasped（倒吸一口氣） in surprise and   42  .The man pumped his hand and said, "I guess it worked!"
Plumb assured him, "It   43  did—if your chute hadn't worked, I wouldn't be here today."
Plumb couldn't sleep that night，thinking about that man. He says, "I wondered how many times I might have passed him   44  the Kitty Hawk. I wondered how many times I might have seen him and not even said 'Good morning, how are you', or anything   45  , you see, I was a fighter pilot and he was just a   46  ."
Plumb thought of the many days the sailor had spent on a long wooden table in the bowels（深處）of the ship   47  working on each chute, holding in his hands each time the   48  of someone he didn't know.
Plumb asks his   49  , "Who's packing your   50 ? Everyone has someone who provides what they need to make it   51  the day." Plumb also says that he needed many kinds of parachutes when his plane was shot down-he needed his   52  parachute, his mental parachute, his emotional parachute, and his spiritual parachute. He called on all these   53  before reaching safety. His experience reminds us all to   54  and be kind to people who pack our daily parachutes, and strengthen us to go through   55  times.

Edward Sims was born in 1892. He was the fifth child and only son of Herbert and Dora Sims. Herbert was a blacksmith(鐵匠), and had a thriving trade making horseshoes. He was determined that his first-born son would follow him into the blacksmith. For this reason, Edward had to leave school at the age of 12,and worked with his father.
However, Edward was not cut out to be a blacksmith. Although he has an athletic body, he didn't have strong arms like his father, and he felt dizzy in the heat of the smithy.  When he tried to find alternative employment, he found it difficult because he had never learnt to read or write.
One day, he went for an interview at a solictior’s office. The job was a runner, taking documents from the office to other offices in the city. The solicitor was pleased to see that Edward was physically fit, but when he discovered that the young man couldn't read or write, he decided against employing him. "How can you deliver documents to other offices," he asked, "if you can't read the addresses on them?"
Bitterly disappointed, Edward left the building and went to wait for a tram to take him back to the suburb where his father’s smithy was. Next to the bus stop, a man was selling newspapers from a stand .
"Excuse me, son?" he said. "Would you look after my stand for a moment?"
For the next 20 minutes, Edward sold newspapers, lots of them. When the man came back, he was so delighted with his new assistant's honesty, that he offered him a job. Edward took it immediately.
In the next few months, the two men progressed from working on newspaper stands to selling newspapers, tobacco,confectionery（糖果點心）and other goods in a shop. Then they opened a second shop, and a third. Eventually, they had a chain of 25 shops in three cities.

[1]Ashley Power’s mother bought a computer for her when she was eight. When she was thirteen, she was surfing the Internet regularly, but she couldn’t find anywhere for teenagers to meet and talk. And one day she thought, “If I had my own website, I’d make it a really interesting site for teenagers.”
[2]So, when Ashley was sixteen, she launched her own website, called GooseHead. She had no idea how big a success it would be, but three years later, the site was the most successful teen site in the USA! It was getting 100,000 hits every day, and Ashley had about 30 employees.
[3]After a few years, the website closed down. Then Ashley, who lives in Los Angeles, was asked to write a book called The GooseHead Guide to Life. The book is about how to design a website and start a business. It begins with a section called “All About Ashley,” where Ashley tells readers what it is like to be the boss of a company when you are only sixteen. “I was so happy. But it was crazy in a lot of ways. I got very stressed. I mean, I was only sixteen—I didn’t even have a car! If you were sixteen and you had your own company, you’d be stressed, too!”
