问题补充:
A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had loved a beautiful sports car in a dealer’s showroom, and knowing his father could well 16it, he told him that was all he wanted.
As 17drew near, the young man expected 18that his father had bought the car. Finally, on the morning of the special day, his father called him into his study. His father told him how 19he was to have such a fine son, and how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped (包装好的) gift box. Curious, but a little bit 20, the young man opened the box and found a lovely Bible (圣经).
Angrily, he raised his 21to his father and said, “Is a Bible 22you can give me with all your money?” He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.
Many years 23and the young man was very successful in business, but 24his father was very old, he thought perhaps he 25go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. 26he could make the arrangements (安排), he received a telegram which 27him of his father’s death, and all the possessions (财产) willed (立遗嘱) to him.
28arriving at his father’s house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to 29through his father’s important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had 30it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to 31. As he was reading, a car 32dropped from the back of the Bible.
How many times do we 33blessings (祝福) because they are not wrapped as we expected? Do not spoil (搞糟) what you have by desiring (渴求) what you have not; but remember what you now have was once 34the things you hoped for. What may appear as bad fortune (运气) may 35be the door that is just waiting to be opened.
