It was a sunny but cold winter here in the mountains. I was   41   home along the clear roads. The last   42   had been over a week ago but down the sides of the hills lining the highway, there were still   43   walls of ice. As I started to round a sharp turn, I   44   that a large piece of ice had broken off and fallen onto the road. I   45   turned my car to the other lane(车道) to   46   it.

 After I did it, I noticed a small dog was walking in my former lane just beyond where the ice had   47  . If I had still been in that lane, I would have surely   48   him. Slowing down, I honked(按喇叭) and the dog was   49  . He looked at me for a moment and then   50   the road and got into the safety of the woods.

 I pulled over to a   51   place and parked. Then I walked back to the ice and moved it   52   the road so that no one would hit it. As I walked back to my car, I looked up at the   53  . The clouds had just parted again to   54   the sun to shine through. I smiled and   55   fate(命运) for putting that ice just where it needed to be to keep me from hitting that little dog.

 As I   56   driving home, I started thinking of all the times that the traffic in my in thelife must have been redirected(重新定向). How many times had I been the small dog walking into traffic only to have the “ice” so I wouldn’t be   57  ? How many times had fate given me another   58   to find my way back to the right path without being   59  ?
