               In 2003, Tim Baker and his wife   (1)   the Shepherd's Field Children's Village, which has  (2)  more than 4,000 orphans. More than 3,000 operations and medical   (3)   have been carried out and 900 children have been adopted.

                 The Village receives children from   (4)   around the country. The majority of them come from   (5)   rural areas. All the children there receive education and are  (6)   the care of 100 workers, including teachers, Chinese nannies, Western doctors, volunteers and interns. About 40 children are   (7)   annually, with most joining overseas families.

                 "I want the children to remember   (8)  they come from, even though they will live  (9)   with their new families, speaking different languages," Tim says.

                 "The most difficult thing  (10)  was to believe that we could do something for the children with special needs," Tim says. The first orphan they received was a newborn with   (11)  heart defects. The Bakers asked for help from friends, family and supporters, who responded   (12)   and raised money for the baby, who was later adopted. Supporters   (13)  international companies, local enterprises, hospitals, schools and individuals.

                 "Now, I am happy to see more people and organizations   (14)  . China has the best adoption system—clear,   (15)  and without corruption." Most of the orphans are between 1 month and 6 years old. The Bakers are working to find solutions   (16)   the older children, who are   (17)   likely to be adopted. The center's workshop provides a place for older orphans to learn such skills   (18)   handicraft making for later jobs. "The happiest moment for me is when I see the kids   (19)  with their new families," Tim, who the children call "Papa Tim", says. "But it's a little sad, too, since in my heart, they are always my kids. But I wish they can have a   (20)   family and a new life."

              Dear Laura,

              I just heard you tell an old story of gift giving and unselfish love in your program. You doubted that such unselfish love would happen in today’s world. Well, I’m here to give you  (1)  .

              I wanted to do something very  (2)  for my fifteen-year-old son, who has always been the perfect child. He  (3)  all summer to earn enough money to buy a used motorcycle. Then, he spent hours and hours on it   (4)  it looked almost new. I was so   (5)  of him that I bought him the shiniest helmet and a riding outfit.

              I could   (6)  wait for him to open up his gift. In fact, I barely slept the night before. Upon a wakening, I went to the kitchen to  (7)   the coffee, tea, and morning goodies. In the living room was a beautiful keyboard with a  (8)  :” To my wonderful mother, all my love, your son.”

              I was so  (9)  . It had been a log-standing joke in our family that I wanted a piano so that I could  (10)  lessons. “ Learn to play the piano, and I’ll get you one” was my husband’s   (11)   .

              I stood there shocked, crying a river, asking myself how my son could  (12)  this expensive gift.

              Of course, the   (13)   awoke, and my son was thrilled(激动的)with my reaction. Many kisses were   (14)  , and I immediately wanted him to  (15)   my gift.

              As he saw the helmet and outfit, the look on his face was not   (16)   what I was expecting. Then I   (17)  that he has sold the motorcycle to get me the keyboard.

              Of course I was the proudest mother  (18)   on that day, and my feet never hit the ground for a month.

              So I wanted you to know, that kind of love still   (19)   and lives even in the ever-changing world of me, me, me!

               I thought you’d love to  (20)   this story.

               Yours,

              Hilary

              P.S. The next day, my husband and I bought him a new “used” already shiny motorcycle.
