He is not __________well.

Gloria is a famous hostess of a TV station．When she was 15，she happened to walk into a bookstore in her hometown and began looking at the books on the shelves．The man behind the counter，John Smith，asked if she’d like a job．She needed to start saving for college，so she said yes．

    Gloria worked after school and during summer vacations，and the job helped pay for her first year of college．During college she would do many other jobs：she served coffee in the student union，was a hotel cleaner and even made maps for the Forest Service．But selling books was one of the most satisfying jobs．

    One day a woman came into the bookstore and asked Gloria for books on cancer．The woman seemed anxious．Gloria showed her practically everything they had and found other books they could order．The woman left the store less worried，and Gloria has always remembered the pride(自豪)she felt in having helped her customer(顧客)．

    Years later，as a television hostess，Gloria heard about a child who was born with problems with his fingers and hand．His family could not afford an operation，and the boy lived in shame，hiding his hand in his pocket all the time．

    Gloria persuaded(說服)her boss to agree to let her do the story．After the story was broadcast，some doctors called，offering to perform the operation for free．

    Gloria visited the boy in the hospital after the operation．The first thing he did was to hold his repaired hand and say，“Thank you．”What a sweet sense of satisfaction Gloria felt!

    At Smith’s bookstore，Gloria always realized she was working for the customers，not the store．Today it’s the same．The TV station pays her，but she feels that she should work for the people who watch the programmes，helping them understand the world better．

When I put my form in front of him. He was busy filling in other forms. After a few minutes he took my form and started filling in. I sat there wondering __32__ we had computerized banking if we were still filling in forms by hand.

After waiting for a few more minutes, in which I showed all signs of being __33__ , I asked him if my work was done. He said, "__34__ is done, it will take time!"

Just then I saw his morning cup of __35__ which had been lying there for the last ten minutes, untouched. The tea had turned almost __36__ while he was doing his work. Suddenly I felt what this man, who had been working at this counter for the last God-knows-how-many years, __37__ be feeling when customers like me come who are always in a hurry to get their work done.

A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, red apple on the tree near a house. The boy didn’t like eating __35__ very much. He preferred a piece of chocolate if he was given the choice, but this time, seeing the nice apple, the boy wanted it very much. The more he looked at the apple, the __36__ he felt and the more he wanted it.

   He stood on tiptoe (腳尖), stretching (伸展) as high as he could, but he was still unable to touch it. He began to __37__ up and down, as high as he could, at the top of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple. Still it remained out of __38__.

   Not giving up, he thought, if he had something to __39__ on, he could reach it. His school bag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to __40__ the things inside, like his lunch box, pencil case, and Gameboy. Looking __41__, he hoped he might find an old box, a rock, or, with luck, even a ladder, but he found nothing that he could __42__. 

    He had tried everything he could think to do. Without seeing any other choices, he gave up and started to walk away.

However, the boy of our story was a __44__ one, even if he couldn’t always get what he wanted. He started to say to himself, “This isn’t helpful. I don’t have the apple and I’m feeling unhappy as well. There’s __45__ more I can do to get the apple. That is unchangeable. But we should try to __46__ our feelings. If that’s the case (情況), what can I do to feel better?”
