Even after several weeks, every time I read this little story I start to cry:
My sister-in-law teaches physically and mentally handicapped children at a private school in Brooklyn. She recently   21  a Special Olympics and went to the starting line of the 100-metre dash with six   22   contestants.
As the starting whistle sounded, a boy tripped, fell and began to cry. All the other   23   stopped, turned and went back to help. Then they all   24  hands and went on to the finish line together. Needless to say, everyone in the stands   25  .
Why am I so moved? There are tears of joy   26  with tears of sadness. Tears of joy, just for the   27  friendship, selflessness and love embodied (体现) by these children. Tears of sadness, just for how   28  from such behavior we adults have wandered. Wouldn’t it be nice if, at least once in a while, we could pause in our race for money and power; turn around to see the   29   of those we have left behind; go back and   30   these less able ones to their feet; and then walk forward together with them, arm in arm.
