WattsOur boys had taken the recycling bin out to the street the night before, because our morning pickup was at the crack of dawn. The next morning, I discovered Old Man Winter’s cruel joke. The relentless South Dakota wind had turned cardboard boxes into winter’s version of tumbleweeds. They were scattered everywhere. I needed to run out and gather them before the collection truck pulled up. I zipped insulated coveralls over my PJs, added a parka and scarf, and then sealed myself up with mittens and a cap. I scurried out the door and zigzagged across the driveway like a chicken pecking for seeds.In a few moments, I’d snagged the stray boxes and crammed them into the bin. It was a good thing. My face was quick to remind me that exposed skin in below-zero temperatures is not a good idea.I was ready to dash back into the house when I spied it. One of the cardboard boxes had made its merry way to the park next door. I grimaced as I fought the temptation to leave it there. I stood frozen (figuratively and literally) as the words my father had spoken years before began to echo in my brain.I could hear his voice as it carried over the sound of burgers sizzling from the heat of Kingsford charcoalbriquets. In the background, cows were meandering and mooing as they made their way from the field to the stock tank. I sniffed the sweet smell of freshly cut alfalfa. I was sitting cross-legged on the picnic table as we made small talk. I asked him how his day at work had been.He indicated it was fairly typical: conference calls, meetings, and paperwork. And then he caught himself and said that one interesting thing had happened. Someone in the hallway had walked past a piece of garbage.He had my attention. What was so important about a piece of garbage? I thought.He went on to describe the scenario. His place of business had rather long hallways. He said he noticed a wrapper at the end of the hall. He kept himself back and observed the number of people who walked past it. He could tell that some of the folks had seen it but chose not to stop. Eventually, someone picked up the wrapper and plopped it in the mouth of a waiting garbage can.And then my dad said something that has stuck with me ever since.“I learned today that there are two kinds of people in the world — the kind who, when they see garbage, will stop and pick it up… and the kind who won’t.”He continued, “It made me realize that we all get to decide what kind of person we’re going to be — a person who leaves the world better than how they found it, or a person who doesn’t.”Then he looked at me with a smile and his penetrating, blue eyes. I knew that he was asking me, without saying it out loud, “What kind of person will you be?”It’s been forty years since that conversation. I’ve lost track of how many times his unspoken advice has affected the choices I’ve made. Some of those decisions were of major consequence; my career, my marriage, my callings… all of them were influenced by those words.And yet, the truth is, those big decisions were shaped by hundreds of little choices that youth gave me the opportunity to make first:Classmate being bullied? Stand up for him.Money to spend? Save it up.Litter in the street? Pick it up.Want to give up? Pull yourself up.Each time, I had a decision to make. And the backdrop for them all? “There are just two kinds of people in the world.”Today, my father’s advice is finding its way into my kids’ lives. Their choices regarding vocation and how they conduct themselves in relationships, as well as being of service to others, are being influenced by that unspoken challenge: “What kind of person will you be?”I’m grateful for his words, but even more for the way he modeled what it looks like to leave the world better than how you found it.Oh, and that renegade cardboard box? You already know what happened. Despite having all the mobility of a Michelin Man bubbled in layers of clothing, I ran to the park, snagged the box and, with a grin as broad as my frozen face would allow, slam-dunked it into the bin!My dad’s been gone for more than a decade now, but I still tell him I get it: Two kinds of people, Dad… two kinds of people.— Cindy K.

Mum had a hard time raising us on her own in our small community of New Westminster, BCMy dad had drowned in Pitt Lake, five years ago. Looking back, I realize what Mum went through sending us kids to school. Every morning she would tuck(塞進(jìn))a new piece of cardboard in our shoes, because our soles(鞋底)were worn out. When we got home, Mum would have “French toast” ready for us. Constant moving was typical for my family in those times. Rent was 25 dollars a month, but Mum couldn’t pay it, and we knew we would be evicted(驅(qū)逐)right after Christmas on the first of January. Christmas was approaching, and we were entitled to a twenty-five-dollar Christmas fund from social services. The inspector came to our house, and searched it from top to bottom to be sure we didn’t have any fond hidden away. When he didn’t find any, he issued the cheque to Mum. Mum said that instead of buying food, she would use the 25 dollars to pay back rent, assuring us all of a roof over our heads for a little while longer. She told us then there would be nothing for Christmas. Unknown to Mum, I had been selling Christmas tree, shoveling snow, and doing odd jobs to earn enough money to buy a new pair of boots. Boots that weren’t patched, boots with no cardboard in the soles. I knew exactly which boots I wanted. They were ten-inch Top Genuine Pierre Paris and they had a price of 23 dollars. Well, the big day came on the afternoon of Christmas Eve. I was excited, as I hurried up the road to the shoe store, but on the way I noticed a house with Christmas lights and decorations. It was then that I realized at our house, we had no lights, no decorations, nor any money for Christmas goodies. I knew that we would have no turkey or ham for Christmas, and I felt sad. Paragraph 1As I continued walking, I began to reconsider my plan. Paragraph 2With great excitement and tears in my eyes, I knocked on the door.  心靈雞湯精選答案【詞匯過(guò)關(guān)】請(qǐng)寫(xiě)出下面文單詞在文章中的中文意思。1.relentless [r??lentl?s] adj.不停的2.scatter [?sk?t?(r)] vt.分散3.parka  [?pɑ?k?] n.派克大衣4.scurry [?sk?ri] vi.急匆匆地走5.snag [sn?ɡ] vt.抓住6.cram [kr?m] vt.塞進(jìn)7.temptation [temp?te??n] n.誘惑8.echo [?ek??] vi.回響9.charcoal [?t?k??l] n.木炭10.meander [mi??nd?(r)] vi.蜿蜒而行;漫步11.alfalfa [?l?f?lf?] n.苜蓿12.scenario [s??nɑ?ri??] n.腳本; 設(shè)想13.plop [pl?p] vi.撲通一聲把放入14.bully [?b?li] vt.恐嚇; 傷害; 脅迫15.renegade [?rene?d] adj.變節(jié)的n.變節(jié)者16.bubble [?b?bl] vi.起泡; 冒泡17.slam-dunk [?sl?md??k] vt.扣籃18.tumbleweeds [?t?mbl]wi?d n.風(fēng)滾草19.coveralls [?k?v?r??lz] n.工作服20.mitten [?m?tn] n.連指手套21.zigzag [?zz?ɡ] vi.曲折前進(jìn)22.stray [stre?] adj.零星的23.grimace [?ɡr?m?s]  vi.做鬼臉24.figuratively ['f?ɡ?r?t?vli] adv.比喻地25.sizzle [?s?zl] v.發(fā)出咝咝聲26.briquet [bri?ket] n.煤餅27.moo [mu?] vi.發(fā)出哞哞聲28.hallway [?h??lwe?] n.走廊29.wrapper [?r?p?(r)] n.包裝紙30.penetrating [?pen?tre?t??] adj.深刻的31.backdrop [?b?kdr?p] n.(事態(tài)或活動(dòng)的)背景32.mobility [m???b?l?ti] n.流動(dòng)性33.grin [ɡr?n] n.咧著嘴笑【句子學(xué)習(xí)】請(qǐng)根據(jù)中文句子填空。(一)動(dòng)作描寫(xiě) I zipped insulated coveralls over my PJs, added a parka and scarf, and then sealed myself up with mittens and a cap. 我在睡衣上拉上隔熱連體服,加了一件派克大衣和圍巾,然后用連指手套和帽子把自己封起來(lái)。 I scurriedout the door and zigzagged across the driveway like a chicken pecking for seeds.我匆匆走出門(mén),像一只啄食種子的雞一樣曲折地穿過(guò)車(chē)道。 In a few moments, I’d snagged the stray boxes and crammed them into the bin.沒(méi)過(guò)多久,我已抓住了那些     雜散的盒子,把它們?nèi)M(jìn)了垃圾箱。 I was ready to dash back into the house when I spied it.我正準(zhǔn)備沖回進(jìn)入房中,這時(shí)我發(fā)現(xiàn)了它。(二)情緒描寫(xiě) I stood frozen (figuratively and literally) as the words my father had spoken years before began to echo in my brain.當(dāng)我父親多年前所說(shuō)的話開(kāi)始在我的腦海中回響時(shí),我僵住了(從比喻和字面意義上來(lái)說(shuō))。 I’m grateful for his words.我很感謝他的話。(三)環(huán)境描寫(xiě)In the background, cows were meandering and mooing as they made their way from the field to the stock tank.在背后,奶牛正蜿蜒前行著、哞哞叫著從田野回到飲水槽。 拓展練習(xí)讀后續(xù)寫(xiě)參考范文As I continued walking, I began to reconsider my plan. At one moment, the boots I had been longing for flashed through my head. And then my Mum’s face appeared, drowned in sorrow, trying in vain to explain to us all why we should celebrate Christmas with no presents, no decorations or no turkey. At exactly that moment, it came to my awareness how selfish I was. Feeling the money in my sweaty hand, I made a big decision and stepped into the grocery store. Having finished shopping, I made my way home, excited and proud of my choice. Paragraph 2With great excitement and tears in my eyes, I knocked on the door. I could hardly wait to see my mother’s face! No sooner had I opened the door than some of the Christmas goodies fell inside onto the floor. She just stood there, dumbfounded. Holding back the tears, I said, “Merry Christmas!” Next moment, I was welcomed by the most passionate hugs and kisses from my beloved Mum.
