The Stranger Who Changed My Life It was a sunny morning in the spring of 1966. I was driving a taxi, looking for a customer. While passing New York Hospital, I found a man running down the hospital steps, waving at me. I stopped. The man reached the taxi and jumped in. "The Airport，please," he said. As always, I wondered about my passenger. Was this man a talker? After a few moments, he started saying, "How do you like driving a taxi?" "It's OK," I said. "I make a living and meet interesting people sometimes." "What do you do?" I asked. "I am a doctor at New York Hospital." Many times during long rides, I'd developed a good relationship with my passengers and received very good advice from them. This time I decided to ask for his help. "Could I ask a favor of you?" He didn't answer. "I have a son, 15, a good kid. He wants a job this summer. Is it possible that you get one for him?" He still wasn't talking, and I was starting to feel foolish. Finally, he said, "Well, my students have a summer research project. Maybe he could join in. Have him send me his school record." He left his address and paid me. It was the last time I ever saw him. Robbie sent off his grades the next morning. And gradually this incident was forgotten. Two weeks later, when I arrived home from work, Robbie handed me a letter. He was informed to call Dr. Plum for an interview. Robbie got the job. The following summer, Robbie worked at the hospital again, but this time, he was given more responsibility. Then, he worked at the hospital for a third summer and gradually developed a love of medical profession. Near graduating from college, Robbie applied to and was admitted to New York Medical College.

The popular notion about marriage and love is that they are synonymous, that they spring from the same motives, and cover the same human needs. Therefore, like most popular notions this also【M1】______ rests not on actual facts, but on superstition. It is utterly false that love results from marriage. On rare occasions one does hear a【M2】______ miraculous case of a married couple falling in love after marriage, but on close examination it will be found that it is a merely adjustment to【M3】______ the inevitable. Certainly the growing—used to each other is far away from the spontaneity, the intensity, and beauty of love, without which the intimacy of marriage must prove degrading to both the woman and the man. Marriage is primarily an economical arrangement, an【M4】______ insurance pact. It differs from the ordinary life insurance agreement only in that it is more binding, more exacting. Its returns are significantly small compared with the investments. In taking out an【M5】______ insurance policy one pays for it with dollars and cents, always【M6】______ in liberty to discontinue payments. If, however, womans premium is【M7】______ a husband, she pays for it with her name, her privacy, her self-respect, her very life, "until death doth part". Moreover, the marriage insurance condemns her to life-long independency, to parasitism, to【M8】______ complete uselessness, individually as long as socially. Man, too, pays【M9】______ his toll, but as his sphere is wider, marriage does not limit him as much as to woman. He feels his chains more in an economic sense.【M10】______

【M1】

While many people might assume that Mothers Day is a holiday invented by the fine folks at Hallmark, its not so. The earliest Mothers Day celebrations can be traced back to the spring celebrations of ancient Greece, honoring Rhea, the Mother of the Gods. The Romans called their version of the event the Hilaria, and celebrated on the Ides(古罗马历中的3月15日) of March by making offerings in the temple of Cybele, the mother of the Gods. Early Christians celebrated the festival on the fourth Sunday of Lent in honor of the Virgin Mary, the Mother of Christ. In more recent times, relatively speaking—England in the 1600s—the celebration was expanded to include all mothers with "Mothering Sunday" being celebrated on the 4th Sunday of Lent (the 40 day period leading up to Easter). (46)Besides attending church services in honor of the Virgin Mary, children returned home from the cities with gifts, flowers, and special Mothering Day cakes that were important parts of the celebration. Mothers Day festivities in the United States date back to 1872 when Julia Ward Howe (her other claim to fame was writing the lyrics(歌词) for the "Battle Hymn of the Republic") suggested the day be dedicated to peace. Ms. Howe would hold organized Mothers Day meetings in Boston, Massachusetts ever year. In 1907, Ana Jarvis, a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania school teacher, furthered the cause by beginning a campaign to establish a national Mothers Day. (47)Ms. Jarvis persuaded her mothers church in Grafton, West Virginia to celebrate Mothers Day on the second anniversary of her mothers death, which happened to be on the 2nd Sunday of May that year. By the following year, Mothers Day was also being celebrated in Philadelphia. Not content to rest on her laurels(殊荣), Ms. Jarvis and her supporters began to write to ministers, businessmen, and politicians in their quest to establish a national Mothers Day and in 1912, the Mothers Day International Association was incorporated for the purpose of promoting the day and its observance. (48)In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson made it official by proclaiming Mothers Day a national holiday that was to be held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May. It is somewhat ironic that after all her efforts, Ana Jarvis ended up growing bitter over what she perceived as the corruption of the holiday she created. (49)She hated the commercialization of the holiday and grew so enraged by it that she filed a lawsuit to stop a 1923 Mothers Day festival and was even arrested for disturbing the peace at a mothers gathering where women sold white carnations(康乃馨)—Jarvis symbol for mothers—to raise money. Ana Jarvis story is not a happy one. Things went from bad to worse and she eventually lost everything and everyone that was close to her and died alone in a sanatorium(疗养地) in 1948. Shortly before her death, Jarvis told a reporter she was sorry she had ever started Mothers Day. (50)Aha may be gone. but Mothers Day lives on, regardless of whether it meets her approval. Many countries throughout the world celebrate Mothers Day at various times throughout the year, but some such as Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, and Belgium also celebrate Mothers Day on the second Sunday of May.
