I remember one Thanksgiving when our family had no money and no food, and someone came knocking on our door. A man was     36     there with a huge box of food, a giant turkey and even some     37    to cook it in. I couldn’t     38    it. My dad demanded, “Who are you? Where are you from?” The stranger announced, “I’m here because a friend of yours knows you’re in need and that you wouldn’t accept     39    help, so I’ve brought this for you. Have a great Thanksgiving.” My father said, “No, no, we     40     accept this.” The stranger replied, “You don’t have     41    ” , closed the door and left.
Obviously that experience had a profound impact（深刻影响）on my life. I     42    myself that someday I would do well enough financially     43     I could do the same thing for other people. By the time I was eighteen I had created my Thanksgiving ritual（习惯）. I would go out     44     and buy enough food for one or two     45    . Then I would dress like a delivery boy, go to the     46     neighborhood and just knock on a     47     . I always     48     a note that explained my Thanksgiving experience     49    a kid. The note said, “All that I ask     50    is that you take good enough care of     51     so that someday you can do the same thing for someone else.” I have received more from this annual ritual than I have from any amount of     52     I’ve ever earned.
Years ago I was in New York City with my new wife during Thanksgiving. She was sad because we were not with our family.     53    she would be home decorating the house for Christmas, but we were     54     in a hotel room. When I told her what I always did on Thanksgiving, she got excited.
We packed enough food for seven families for thirty days and went to buildings where half a dozen people lived in one room with no electricity and no heat in winter surrounded by rats, cockroaches（蟑螂）and the smell of urine（尿）. It was both an     55    realization that people lived in this way and a truly fulfilling experience to make even a small difference.
