My grandmother became a widow in 1970. Shortly after that, we went to the   shelter to pick out a dog to keep her   . Grandma decided on a little dog with a reddish-brown spot above each eye.   these spots, the dog was named Penny.
Grandma and Penny quickly became very   to each other, but that attachment grew much stronger about three years later   Grandma had a stroke（中風(fēng)）. Grandma could no longer   , so when she came home from the hospital, she and Penny were   companions.
After her stroke, it became a real   for Grandma to let Penny in and out because   was at the bottom of a flight of stairs. So a mechanism（機(jī)械裝置）using a rope and pulley（滑輪）was     from the door to a handle at the top of the stairs. Grandma just had to pull the handle to open and close the door. If the store was     Penny’s favorite dog food, Grandma would make one of us   Penny browned beef with potatoes in it. I can remember     my grandmother by saying that she loved that dog better than she loved her family.
As the years passed, it was not   for Grandma and Penny to separate each other. If Grandma went to take her nap（打盹）, Penny stayed by her side until she   . As Penny aged, she could no longer jump up on the bed, so she     on the rug （墊子）beside the bed. If Grandma went into the     , Penny would walk along beside her, wait outside the door and accompany her     to the bed or chair. Grandma never went anywhere without her  _ companion by her side.
The time came when both my grandmother’s and Penny’s     were failing fast. After fifteen years of loving companionship, Grandma and Penny passed away within a few hours of each other.

Charles Plumb, a U.S. Naval Academy graduate, was a jet fighter pilot in Vietnam. After 75 combat missions, his plane was     by a surface-to-air missile. Plumb was     and spent six years in prison in Vietnam. He survived and now      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    jet fighters in Vietnam from the aircraft carrier (航空母艦) Kitty Hawk . You were      !"
"How in the world did you know that?" asked Plumb.
　　"I      your parachute," the man replied. Plumb gasped（倒吸一口氣） in surprise and     .The man pumped his hand and said, "I guess it worked!"
Plumb assured him, "It     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      the Kitty Hawk. I wondered how many times I might have seen him and not even said 'Good morning, how are you', or anything     , you see, I was a fighter pilot and he was just a      ."
Plumb thought of the many days the sailor had spent on a long wooden table in the bowels（深處）of the ship      working on each chute, holding in his hands each time the      of someone he didn't know.
　　Plumb asks his      , "Who's packing your     ? Everyone has someone who provides what they need to make it      the day." Plumb also says that he needed many kinds of parachutes when his plane was shot down—he needed his      parachute, his mental parachute, his emotional parachute, and his spiritual parachute. He called on all these      before reaching safety. His experience reminds us all to     and be kind to people who pack our daily parachutes, and strengthen us to go through      times.

In 1970, my five brothers, my sister and I lived in the housing projects of Toronto with our parents. My father was a factory worker, and my mother stayed at home. Each year my father would dress up as Santa Claus and go through the streets of the projects sharing joy and candies with the children there. He loved it as much as they did!
But around the Christmas in 1970, my father was out of his job and money was tight. In fact, there was no money for Christmas and my parents weren’t sure what they’d provide for us.
That Christmas Eve, however, as usual, my father left the house dressed as Santa Claus. He knew that even though our Christmas would be hard, he could not disappoint the other kids in the neighborhood.
As my father left the house and went down the walkway, Santa Claus was walking up, with a great sack full of gifts for us! He said nothing, only smiled a sweet smile at my father, and wished him a Merry Christmas. The happy man handed Dad the sack and walked away down the block.
We never knew who the man was and who showed us great kindness on a snowy Christmas night. We do know, however, that without him we would have had nothing under the tree. His kindness gave my parents hope and showed us in a very real way the true meaning of Christmas.
Our family has never forgotten this kind stranger. Each year we tell the story of the mysterious Santa Claus and try to repay his gifts by giving gifts to others in need.

Once upon a time there was a monster（怪獸）. He was very ugly and had no friends. No one wanted to talk to him. Even other monsters thought he was ugly.
He lived alone and was very unhappy because he was so lonely.
“I wish I had a friend.” He said to himself every day, “One friend would be enough. Someone to talk to.”
He wrote a letter to a magazine. The magazine gave people advice.
“Dear Editor,” he wrote, “I am a ugly monster. How can I find a friend?”
“Dear monster,” the Editor replied, “Advertise for a friend in this magazine.” The monster wrote an advertisement.
“Monster wants a friend, male or female. I have two heads, four arms, six legs and three tails. I have one blue eye, one green eye and one brown eye. Smoke comes out of my nose. But I am really a kind monster and will be a good friend to someone. If you would like to meet me, please stand outside Blake’s Store at 6 p.m. on Friday, May 7th. Write to Mr. A, Box 45, everybody’s Magazine.”
A few days later he went to the magazine.
“Do you have any letters for Box 45?” he asked.
The clerk looked in Box 45.
“Yes, there is one.” She said, and gave it to him.
