My mother  45  me to watch one of his shows the day before yesterday. The show taught children not to steal (偷) by describing   46  a person might feel when his or her thing was stolen. In the show, there was a shark. He often stole things and never   47  the owners' feelings. Then one day he found his   48  things were stolen. He was angry and   49 . From that experience, he   50  how worried and angry others would be when their things were   51 . From then on he decided to   52  stealing.
