完形填空。
About ten years ago, I was on a plane going west, and a young woman
1 and sat across the
aisle
(过道) from me. I noticed her for two reasons. She was very attractive, and she was holding a teddy bear
about half her
2 . I teased her by asking if she had a
3 for the bear.She laughed and said no.
About halfway through the flight she
4 over and told me she was going to Tucson to
enter rehab (康
复治疗). She
5 to share her life story with me. She had been working as a dancer in a nightclub.
That
6 had led her down a dark
7 to drugs and alcohol. As I listened to her story, I was
8 at all she
had gone through. I listened to all she shared and told her I was sure she was going to
9 it. At the end
of the
10 , she thanked me for listening to her.
A few years later, I got a
11 in the mail saying, "Wow, it's been five years since we met on that plane. It is
12 how you touched my life." She went on to tell me that she had
13 to stay away from drugs, and
had been working for a radio station. She felt she had achieved things she could not have
14 that
day on the plane. We agreed to set up a time to get

When I saw her, she was
16_ the attractive young woman I remembered. She told me that that little
17 we had had turned her life around. She had got on the plane
18 anything would work in her life,
and my affirmation
of her as a person and of her
19 had given her the last bit of
20 she needed to
work through her problems.
The young woman taught me it's never too late to make a new start in life.
