1、  On the top of a tree which had lost all its other leaves．two still remained hanging from one branch：Ole and Trufa. For some reason unknown to them，Ole and Trufa had 36 all the rains and winds. But Ole and Trufa believed the answer 37 in the great love they bore one another. One leaf can do  38  for another when the wind blows，the rain pours,    39  ，Ole encouraged Trufa at every opportunity

  At times during cold and stormy nights，Ole would   40  ：“My time has come，Trufa，but you hang on!”

  “What for?” Trufa asked．“Without you，my life is  41  ．If you fall，I’11 fall with you.”

  One day Just as Trufa spoke these words，what they two had  42 all these months happened-a wind came up and tore Ole 43 from the branch. Soon Ole disappeared from sight and Trufa was left all alone on the tree．

     As long as it was still day, Trufa managed somehow to   44  her sorrow. But when it grew dark and cold, she  45  despair. Somehow she felt that the blame for all the leafy  46  was laid on the tree. Leaves fell, but the trunk stood tall, and   47  rooted in the wood. No wind, or rain could  48  it.

     One night, Trufa dozed off. The next morning, to her   49   , she found that she was no longer  50  on the tree. The wind had blown her down while she was asleep. She  51  now that she wasn't just a leaf that 52 the wind, but that she was 53 of the universe.

     Next to her lay Ole, and they   54   each other with a love they hadn't been aware of before. This wasn't a love that depended on chance, but a love as powerful and   55   as the universe itself.
