As an intern （实习医生）, I grew to understand that nursing home patients were a valuable part of my education—not just from a 36 angle, but for what they could 37 me personally.
Mr Smith was my first introduction to the nursing home. His 38 , regrettably, can probably exist in countless hospitals across our nation. An acute（严重的） illness had brought him to our nursing home years ago, and his family 39 him shortly before he left hospital. Helpless and unable to care for himself, he had no 40 except for nursing home care, 41 he lay until I met him when I was an intern.
Mr Smith was almost noncommunicative. After transferring to the nursing home, he slipped into a tense and 42 state, waiting for his life to 43 . All efforts to bring him back to the mainstream life were 44 . Nurses faithfully tended to his physical needs, while he 45 as a shell of flesh and bone, completely lacking in life. For three years, I saw him every week, Not once did I hear him speak a word. Not once could I 46 his innermost thoughts.
On my last nursing home visit, an idea struck me. I brought my 48 into Mr Smith’s room as part of a（n） 49 in “pet treatment.” Something 50 occurred. All of a sudden, he sat up and started talking, telling me of the days when he was a boy and had a dog 51 to my own. He told me stories of adventures he and his dog had had. For the first time, I saw the soul 52 from what had been a living corpse （尸体）.
That experience taught me not to underestimate the ability of the 53 things in life to touch hearts when carefully-made medicine has failed, and never to forget that within even the weakest of human bodies lies a life that is precious indeed— 54 that needs to be 55 and honored, even if it can’t speak for itself.

Jessie's Glove
I do a lot of management training each year for the Circle K Corporation, a national chain of convenience stores. 21 the topics we discuss is the retention （保持）of quality employees -- a real challenge to managers when you consider the pay scale （薪水标准）in the service industry. During these discussions, I asked the participants, "What has caused you to stay long enough to become a manager?" Some time back a new 22 took the question and 23 said, "It was a $19 baseball glove."
Cynthia told the group that she 24 took a Circle K clerk job as an interim （过渡时期）position 25 she looked for something 26 .On her second or third day behind the counter, she received a phone call from her nine-year-old son, Jessie. He needed a baseball glove for Little League. She explained that 27 a single mother, money was very 28 , and her first check would 29 go for paying 30 . Perhaps she could buy his baseball glove with her second or third check..
When Cynthia arrived for work the next morning, Patricia, the store manager, asked her to come to the small room in the back of the store that 31 as an office. Cynthia 32 if she had done something wrong or left some part of her job incomplete from the day before. She was concerned and confused.
Patricia handed her a box. "I overheard you talking to your son 33 ," she said, "and I know that it is hard to 34 things to kids. This is a baseball glove for Jessie because he may not understand how 35 he is, even though you have to pay bills 36 you can buy gloves. You know we can't pay good people like you as much as we would like to; but we 37 care, and I want you to know you are important to 38 ."
The thoughtfulness, sympathy and 39 of this convenience store manager demonstrates vividly that people remember more how much an employer 40 than how much the employer pays. An important lesson for the price of a Little League baseball glove.
