On the bank of the Witham River, in Lincolnshire, George, 15, and his father Kevin Tindale were magnet (磁铁) fishing. That was their ________: pulling metal objects out of water. After several ________ at his spot, George fished out a door to a small safe. Little did he know that the real ________ was still hiding below the water’s surface!

When George   ________ pulled the rest of the safe to the surface, they began to   ________ the mud-filled contents. On a few documents, they ________ the former owner’s name. Then as they opened a muddy bag, they grew excited. Inside the bag were piles of Australian   ________!

When the Tindales returned this safe to its owner, Rob Everett, he was ________. The safe had been ________ from his office by a local teenager back in 2000. The thief had later been ________ but the safe was thrown into the river and remained missing.

It took 22 years for a different ________ to make the theft right! Rob called George and his dad “________” and gave them some of the money as a reward. He would also have a spot for this ________ teen in his company, should George ever want it.

What a find! We’ve got to ________ to George and Kevin for returning the money. We’re sure this experience will ________ them to keep up with their unusual hobby!

I made my way into the small restaurant in our Winnipeg hotel for breakfast. Only two other tables were occupied, one by a family with a little boy, and the boy was so _________ because sitting at the table directly behind us was a face he _________. “Mom, Mom, look! It’s Wayne Gretzky! My favourite ice hockey player!”

The other table was Wayne Gretzky, discussing important business with some gentlemen. They were speaking quietly. The little boy was eager to _________ Wayne Gretzky and get an autograph (亲笔签名). After all, this might be his only _________! But his mother just kept _________, “Honey, this is not the _________.” The poor little boy was almost _________. He kept looking at his _________—right in the same room!

Well, it was _________ not to notice what was going on. Wayne excused himself from his breakfast and went over to the little boy. He knelt down, __________ his hand and said, “Hi, I’m Wayne Gretzky. What’s your name?”

The little boy’s face totally lit up! He just couldn’t __________ what was happening. The whole __________ was thrilled. It was __________ to watch as Wayne shook hands with the little boy and then __________ his autograph on a piece of paper for the boy.

I was so __________. It made me realize that he sincerely meant all the things he has said about encouraging youngsters—and that Wayne Gretzky was as much a hero off the ice as he was on.

When Sergio Peralta,15, started the year as a new student at Hendersonville High School, he tried to keep it a (an) _________ that he was born with a right hand that didn’t fully form. “In the first days of school, I honestly felt like hiding my hand,” Peralta said. “Like nobody would ever _________.”

Eventually, a teacher in the engineering program, Jeff Wilkins, _________ Peralta’s hand, and suggested that his engineering students might be able to _________. “They ended up offering me, like, ‘We could build you a robotic hand’and I never _________ it,” said Peralta.

Though the teens were unsure if the _________ would work, they didn’t let uncertainty stop them from _________.They spent four weeks designing, sizing, and creating a robotic hand with online models and a 3-D printer, _________ discovering first-hand how engineering can be used to make a(an) _________ difference.

Peralta had become__________ at using his left hand to write and do nearly everything else. But there were certain things that weren’t __________, like catching a baseball with his right hand.

So after about a month of building the robotic hand and developing a __________ with Peralta along the way, the students tested the robotic hand with a __________ of catch. For the first time, Peralta was able to play catch with both hands.

“Living without a hand for 15 years, I want to say they actually offered me two. This is actually pretty __________ . No one has ever offered me this stuff,” he said. “They __________ my life.”
