One day, when I was working as a psychologist in England, an adolescent boy showed up in my office.It was David.He kept25(walk)up and down restlely, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly.His head teacher had referred him to me.“This boy has lost his family,” he wrote.“He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others,26I’m very worried about him.Can you help?”

I looked at David and showed him to a chair.How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn’t have the answer27, and which no words can describe.Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically

The first two times we met, David didn’t say a word.He sat there, only28(look)up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me.I suggested we play a game of che.He nodded.After that he played che with me every Wednesday afternoon—in complete silence and without looking at me.It’s not easy to cheat in che, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.Usually, he arrived29than agreed, took the che board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down.It seemed as if he enjoyed my company.But why did he never look at me?

“Perhaps he simply needs someone30(share)his pain with,” I thought.“Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.” Some months later, when we were playing che, he looked up at me suddenly.“31’s your turn,” he said.After that day, David started talking.He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club.He wrote to me a few times about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university.Now he had really started to live his own life.Maybe I gave David something.But I also learned that one—without any words—can reach out to 32person.All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens

Some years ago, writing in my diary used to be a usual activity.I would return from school and33(spend)the expected half hour recording the day’s events, feelings, and impreions in my little blue diary.I did not really need to expre my emotions by way of words, but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiences forever34(record)on paper.After all, isn’t accumulating memories a way of preserving the past?

When I was thirteen years old, I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley,35(well-equip)with pens, a diary, and a camera.During the trip, I was busy recording every incident,name and place I came acro.I felt proud to be spending my time36(productive), dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed description of my travels.On my last night there, I wandered out of my tent, diary in hand.The sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows.I automatically took out my pen….At that point, I understood that nothing I37(write)could ever match or replace the few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley.All I remembered of the previous few days were the dull characterizations I38(set)down in my diary.Now, I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling.I still love to record ideas and quotations that strike me in books, or observations that are particularly meaningful.I take pictures, but not very often—only of objects39I find really beautiful.I’m no longer blindly satisfied with having something to remember when I grow old.I realize that life will simply pa me by if I stay behind the camera, busy40(preserve)the present so as to live it in the future.I don’t want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes.Maybe I won’t have as many exact representations of people and places;maybe I’ll forget certain facts, but at least the experiences will always remain inside me.I don’t live to make memories—I just live, and the memories form themselves.Key:25.walking 26.and 27.to28.looking 29.earlier 30.to share 31.It32.another33.spend 34.recorded35.well-equipped36.productively 37.wrote38.had set 39.which / that 40.Preserving
