  My father was a keen baseball fan.Whenever he could, Dad took me out to the park and pitched balls for me to hit.

  One day at the park, a woman pushing a young boy in a wheelchair stopped to watch us play.My dad was over to them in a flash to ask if the child could join our game.The woman explained that her son had polio(小兒麻痹癥)and wouldn't be able to get out of the chair.That didn't stop my dad.He placed the bat in the youngster's hand, pushed him out to home plate and assisted him in holding the bat.Then he yelled out to me, "Anne, pitch one in to us."

  I saw the delight in the boy's eyes, so I aimed at the bat and let the ball fly.The ball made contact with the bat(球拍)with an assist from my dad and the child screamed with joy.As I turned, I heard my dad singing Take Me Out to the Ball Game

  An hour later we all left the field, very tired but very happy.Dad told the mother to bring the boy back next Saturday and we would play another game.

  Dad and I were at the field the next Saturday but the mother and son never came.Twenty years passed, with my dad gone, I had very mixed emotions about leaving the neighborhood Before moving I decided to take one last walk around the park where Dad and I had spent so many happy moments.Two Little League teams were on the field just about to start a game.I felt the sting of tears in my eyes as I watched the children play the game.

  "Jeff, protect your base," one coach yelled.I cheered the runner on when the ball was hit far into the outfield.The coach turned and smiled, "I never thought I’d ever be a coach playing on this field.You see, I had polio as a child and was restricted to a wheelchair.Thanks to a man's assistance, I was able to hit the ball and hear him singing the song Take Me Out to the Ball Game.I believe that experience gave me the desire to walk again.I hope that some day I'll look up in the stands and see that man and his daughter again.I sure would like to thank him."

  Some people do not like anything to be out of place, they are never late for work; they return their books to the library on time; they remember people's birthday and they pay their bills as soon as they arrive. Mr. Dodds is such a person.

  Mr. Dodds works in a bank, and lives alone. The only family he has were in the next town: his sister lives there with her husband, and her son, Mark. Mr. Dodds does not see his sister, or his family, from one year to the next, but he sends them Christmas cards, and he has not forgotten one of Mark's seventeen birthdays. Last week Mr. Dodds had quite a surprise. He drove home from the bank at the usual time and drove neither too slowly nor too fast; he parked his car where he always parked it, out of the way of other cars, and he went inside to make his evening meal. At once, there was a knock at the door. Mr. Dodds opened the door to find a policeman standing at the door.

  

  “What have I done wrong?”Mr Dodds asked himself.“Have I driven on the wrong side of the road? Has there been some trouble at the bank? Have I forgotten to pay an important bill?”
