The art of giving gifts is to give something that others cannot buy for themselves.
------A.A. Milne
I have spent most of my career as a traveling salesman. There’s 36 lonelier than having meals myself in a coffee shop. One year, my five-year-old daughter Jeanine gave me a 37 . It was a soft toy penguin with a hand –painted 38 saying “I love My Dad!” Tears came into my eyes and immediately, I gave it a 39 place on my desk.
Soon I had to leave on another business 40 . This time when I was 41 , I put the penguin in my suitcase. After that day, Jeanine always helped me pack with the penguin. Many years 42 by and that little penguin has traveled with me hundreds of thousands of miles all across America and over to Europe. We have also made many friends 43 the way.
44 one afternoon after leaving my hotel, I discovered that the penguin was 45 . Frantically, I phoned the hotel. The clerk 46 , saying it hadn’t been reported. But half an hour later, he called back to say that my penguin had been found. It was late, 47 I drove several hours to get my little 48 , arriving near midnight.
When I rushed to the hotel, I found that it was waiting at the front desk. In the lobby(大廳), some 49 business travelers looked at us, I think, with some 50 and envy(羨慕). Someone came out to shake my hand. One man told me that he had even volunteered to 51 it to me the very next day.
Jeannie is in college now and I don’t travel 52 much anymore. The penguin spends most of its time 53 on my dresser??????????--- a reminder that 54 is the best traveling companion. All those years on the road, it was the one thing I never left home 55 .

In the fall of 1985. I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later , I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.
My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college an the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.
Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopt(收養) and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic---and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.
You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 8. Our home was a complete zoo---a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each semester.
The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, But I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.
In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree！
I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you’re looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you’re in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won’t arrive in your life on one day. It’s a process. Remember；little steps add up to big dreams.

| A．a writer | B．a teacher |
