One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods from door to door found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to __
36__ for a meal at the next house.
However, he lost his nerve(勇气) __
37__ a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked__
38__ so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I __
39__ you?”
“You don’t owe me anything,” she _
40_, “mother has taught me never to accept pay for a __
41__.” He said, “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger _
42__, but it also increased his faith in God and human race. He was about to give up and quit before this point.
Years later the young woman became critically(紧急的) ill. The local doctors were baffled(感到困惑). They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists can be called __
43__ to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now _
_44__, was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light__
45__his eyes. Immediately, he _
_46__and went down through the hospital hall into her room.
_
_47__in his doctor’s grown he went in to see her, he _
_48__her at once. He went back to the consultation room and _
_49__to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave__
50__ attention to her face.
After a long__
51__the battle was won. Dr. Kelly __
52__ the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because it was__
53__ that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her_
_54__. She read these words：
“Paid in full with a glass of milk.”
(Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly
Tears of joy flooded her eyes as she__
55__silently. “Thank you, God. Your love has spread through human hearts and hands.”
