My husband, a simple man, has a favorite saying: “A bargain is really a bargain when you don’t buy it”. 36 he sets aside his simple ways when we dine out. Unlike his relatives who enter a restaurant armed with calculators to make sure they never 37 , my husband 38 his own tip 5 percent each time the accepted standard increases. He hasn’t analyzed why he tips so generously, but I think the habit 39 from his high school years, when he worked as a busboy(饭店打杂工) and got tips from people he served.
Over the years, our growing boys would suggest that Dad let them 40 dessert rather than tip so much. He stood firm 41 their strong demands. Our sons and I have 42 to accept his habit. We recently 43 our son’s girlfriend to seafood. We chose a restaurant near Cocoa Beach. Our server, a grandmotherly woman 44 at the art of service, flew around the restaurant serving dishes and drinks 45 treating customers enthusiastically. She remembered their special 46 , likes and dislikes. She didn’t serve us 47 food. She served us the best food. She made sure the kitchen gave her fresh produce. At the end of the meal, our waitress 48 the bill, then went to 49 to the growing crowd of other diners. My husband paid with a credit card and added her tip. When we left, “Mr. Goldsmith!” she called waving a receipt (发票) at him, “Thank you.”
“What did you give her?” I asked, wondering if he had done something 50 or made a calculation error. “She gave us great service. I just thought she deserved a big 51 in tips.” It wasn’t until later when I overheard our son retelling the story of the grateful waitress that I realized she had given my family something 52 a thank you. She showed our son the 53 of recognizing hard work. Her show of gratitude (感激之情) helped a dad earn a bit more 54 from a loving son. And it reminded me just why I married this 55 , caring man.

Then she settled in, 38 her briefcase on her lap and rested her cane against her leg.
It had been a year since Susan, 34, became 39 . Due to a medical misdiagnosis, she was suddenly 40 into a world of darkness, anger, frustration and self-pity. Mark, her husband , 41 her to work each day, even though they worked at 42 ends of the city. Soon, however, Mark realized the arrangement wasn't 43 .Susan had to start taking the bus again. Just as he predicted, Susan was 44 at the idea of taking the bus again. "How am I 45 to know where I am going? I feel like you're abandoning me. "she responded bitterly. Mark taught her how to rely on her other 46 , specifically her hearing, to determine where she was and how to 47 to her new environment. Monday morning arrived, they went their 48 ways for the first time.
On Friday morning, Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was paying, the driver said, "I sure do 49 you." Curious, she asked the driver, "Why do you say that you envy me?"
The driver responded, "It must feel 50 to be taken care of and protected like you are." "What do you mean?" she asked.
The driver answered, "You know, every morning for the past week, a fine- looking gentleman in a military uniform has been 51 across the corner watching you as you get off the bus. He makes sure you cross the street 52 and he watches until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a little salute and walks away." Tears of happiness poured down Susan's cheeks. For 53 she couldn't physically see him, she had always felt Mark's presence. He had given her a gift more powerful than 54 , a gift she didn't need to see to 55 ——the gift of love that can bring light where there is darkness.
