One evening, I went out for a walk on the path near my house with my husband. On my finger was a very special ring with a diamond (钻石) that my grandmother gave me for my 23rd birthday. At the end of the path, when I looked down at it again and found the diamond was __________36. I started back along the path hurriedly __________37 the tiny stone. In my heart, I knew it seemed impossible for me to find it. The path was very long and __________38 with leaves. As I searched the ground, crying and upset, I met an old lady. "What's the matter, love?" She asked kindly. I __________39 about the missing diamond and showed her my ring. She said, "That's going to be hard to find. Tell me what, love, I walk along this path every day, I'll keep my eyes __________40 for it." I thanked her, __________41 nothing, but still told her that we sometimes walked our dog along the path if she might find something.
A few days later, my husband and I met the old lady on the path. "Guess what?" She said, "I found your diamond!" To our __________42, she'd found the tiny stone and was willing to hand it back to me. "It was lucky that I found it." When we __________43 her with some money for her help, she
__________44 politely. I was deeply moved. She could have easily kept the diamond, or sold it, for it's worth several thousand dollars, but she didn't.
Every time I look at my ring and remind __________45 that there're kind and beautiful hearts in the world. I'll spend the rest of my life trying to do something like that.

A
Recently, I happened to hear a mother and a daughter in their last moments together at the airport as the daughter prepared to leave.
They hugged and the mother said "I love you and I wish you enough." They kissed and the daughter left.
The mother walked over to the window where I sat. Standing there, I could see she was going to cry. I tried not to disturb her but she welcomed me by asking "Have you ever said goodbye to someone knowing it would be forever?"
"Yes," I replied. "But may I know why this is the final goodbye?"
"I am ill and she lives so far away. It's highly possible that the next trip back will be for my funeral (葬礼)." she said.
"When you were saying goodbye, I heard you say 'I wish you enough'. May I ask what that means?"
"That's a wish that has been handed down from past generations. My parents used to say it to everyone." She paused for a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it in detail and she smiled even more.
"When we say 'I wish you enough', we want the other person to have a life full of just enough good things to be with them". Then turning to me, she shared the following:
"I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright."
"I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more."

Four years ago, when Leonora Costi, an Italian photographer from Florence (佛罗伦萨), was reading a local newspaper, she came across an article about an abandoned (舍弃的) 14th-century villa (别墅) not far away. She thought it would be a good place to take photos and decided to go and visit the
villa.
Costi was impressed by how dark and quiet the villa was. She started searching for more abandoned villas after her first trip. Sometimes, she searches the Internet; other times, she searches local newspapers to see if anyone is mentioning a villa. She gets information from her fellow photographers who are interested in abandoned places, too. So far, she has explored more than 50 villas across northern and central Italy and taken many breathtaking photos.
Costi is not just taking photos of abandoned villas for fun. Most of the villas she has visited were abandoned because their owners couldn't pay for the high taxes or maintenance(维修) costs. Costi hopes to draw attention to those hidden treasures by taking photos of them so that people who can afford the costs may try to restore (恢复) them. Some villas were recently restored after she shared their photos online. They have got new owners, too.
Costi says it is like traveling back to a moment frozen in time when she enters an abandoned place.
She loves the feeling and will continue to discover the beauty of Italy's abandoned villas.
A. Costi is an Italian photographer.
B. The villas Costi has visited are located across southern and central Italy.
C. Some abandoned villas have got new owners.
D. Many people abandoned their villas because they could not afford the high taxes or maintenance costs.

C
Most people around the world are right-handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1997, scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1500 B. C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so scientists guessed that right-handedness has been common throughout history. Today, only between 10 percent and 15 percent of the world's population is left-handed.
Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that each of a person's two hands has its own jobs. For most people, the left hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because the two sides of the brain do different kinds of work. The right side of the brain, which makes a person's hands and eyes work together, controls the left hand. The left side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the center for thinking and solving problems. These findings explain why many artists are left-handed. Studies have also found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists as among people doing other jobs.
No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed instead of left-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40 percent of people become left-handed because part of their brain was damaged when they were born. However, this doesn't happen to everyone, so scientists guess that there must be other reasons why people become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handedness from their parents. If a person does not receive the gene (基因) for right-handedness, he / she may become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with.
Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, people no longer think left-handed people are strange or unusual. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today most children can choose.

Teaching computer classes with no computers
A teacher from Ghana (加纳) has received worldwide praise after people saw a photo showing him teaching students how to use Microsoft Word on a blackboard.
Richard Appiah Akoto teaches computer classes at a middle school in rural Ghana. However, there are no computers at the school. To solve the problem, Akoto tries to draw computer screenshots (屏幕截图) onto the blackboard with colored chalk. He spends about 30 minutes making these drawings. He draws every detail and feature (特征) of the software, including all the tools and the scroll bars (滚动条). To make room for the next class, these drawings are erased when the computer class is over. Therefore, Akoto has to draw new screenshots every time.
Akoto has taught computer class for six years and this is not the first time he has taught his students with drawings on the blackboard. He has taught his students how to turn on and off a computer and create a folder (文件夹) in the same way.
Akoto was happy when one of his students got an "A" in the national exam on computer skills last year. He says he loves his students, and this is why he needs to do everything that will make them understand what he is teaching.

When the baby deer drank all the water, Billy ran back to the house. He opened the tap and a small trickle (涓涓细流) came out.
