Searches 24 days,weeks and then months.A year passed and then another, 25 every pebble he picked up was as cold as ice and he cast them away as 26 as he picked them.Now he had become so 27 at it that he could pick up a pebble and cast it with one 28 action.
At last he was bored with such 29 searches and nearly disappointed,doubting whether there was really such a pebble.
One evening as he was 30 his worn-out legs,leaving the beach after a whole day’s aimless search,he saw a 31 pebble in front of him.”This will be the last one!”said the man hopelessly.With a sigh he 32 and picked it up with his spent hand.Not until he gathered all his 33 and threw it farther into the sea did he 34 that it was warm and even a little 35 ,but it was too late.

19. Earlier this year, my family experienced an unexpected tragedy. The kind of tragedy which knocks you out of yourself and turns your whole world upside down. A tragedy which also caused me to be out of work for three months. It was completely unforeseen and I had no time to put together an out-of-office plan.
I’ve worked at previous companies where this kind of tragedy would have been handled professionally; I would have been given the legally—required money and asked to leave. But at SAS Institute (an American developer of analytics software), my team stepped in and filled in with no questions or hesitations. My work was not left undone. My clients (客户) were patient when those picking up the pieces of projects unrelated to them needed some time to get familiar with the work. My management and colleagues checked on my family regularly. At last, my manager, my entire team and Human Resources Department helped me back to work at my own pace. They even changed my workspace over a weekend to better suit my personal needs before I even came back to work.
You see, SAS—creates—a—family. The special attention to employee happiness and work/life balance makes that family possible. The flexible work environment enables most employees to create a schedule that best suits their personal needs—whether it’s attending a school play or taking an aging parent to the doctor. The Work/Life Office has a wealth of resources for college planning, anger management, sorrow, etc. But, as you can see, it doesn’t stop there. Most employees believe that SAS is their family. We rely on each other. We help each other succeed. We celebrate team successes. We hang out after work. Our kids play together. We laugh together and cry together.
Sure, we have a lot of convenience benefits at SAS. But, what really makes a difference to me is the SAS culture that the outside world doesn’t always see: The balance. The companionship. The management support. The family it allows me to have.
I’m so eager for others to see the side of SAS that I see every day.

B. They visited his family every weekend.
C. They asked his clients to wait for him to return.

A. the employees feel at home at SAS

C. many SAS employees have become couples
D. the offices at SAS are decorated like families
