【题文】Cam once owned a special one-dollar bill, which had a lot of famous stars’ names on it. He treasured it very much and carried it with him all the time. Even when his family was short of food, he still ________it. That was his bottom dollar.
One morning, Cam saw a young man sitting in an old yellow car in the parking lot. Cam waved to him and drove away. In the evening, he noticed the car parked in the same place, which lasted for a couple of days.
What was he doing, sitting in his car for three days in the terrible cold?
Cam discovered the ________the next morning. This time as he walked ________ the car, the man rolled his window down. “He introduced himself and said he had been in his car for days with no money or ________.” Cam recalled(回忆), “Then, very slowly, he asked if he could ________ a dollar for a meal. I didn’t have a dollar to lend him; I hardly had gas to get home. I explained my ________ and walked to my car, wishing I could help him; but I have no money at all.”
Suddenly, Cam remembered his valuable dollar. He stood there for a minute or two, pulled his ________ out and studied the only one-dollar bill. Then he walked back to the man and gave him his bottom dollar. “Somebody has ________ all over this.” The man said, but he didn’t notice that the writing was a lot of famous stars’ names. He ________the bill.

【题文】People who have special needs for children understand that even small success means a lot. We’ve learned to respect people who work very hard to do ________things, like learning to tie shoes.
My eight-year-old son, Brian, wanted to win an award(奖，奖金) by learning to tie his own shoes. He was given ten days to prepare for the goal. Because Brian has Down syndrome(唐氏综合症), our whole family ________ him. Days passed and he could not do it and he cried. We cried with him. The day came for the meeting. We were worried about our lack of ability to teach such a simple task and spoke _________about not taking him to the meeting that night. We didn’t want to make him sad.
I nearly opened my ________ to tell him that it wasn’t important for him to learn to tie his shoes. But before I did that, his older sister ________ a new idea.
“Brian,” she softly asked, “why don’t you try closing your eyes? See if you can tie your shoes in your imagination. That way, if you get up to go someplace early before the sun comes up, you can tie your shoes in the ________.”
Brian sat, with eyes closed, and tied his shoes perfectly. We looked at each other excitedly. And then we ________to his meeting.
Brian went first. He, with eyes closed,________ an award that might weight more than an Olympic Gold Medal. Tears of joy fell.
Brian turned something difficult into something ordinary, small and simple. When he found a new ________ to solve the problem, it became an important event because it was really difficult for him. We all cheered for him. Brian still ties his shoes as his big sister suggested so many years ago.
Since then, I believe that when things get difficult and I can’t find a solution to a problem, I just close my eyes and find a ________way.
