The Fish I didn't Catch
I still remember my first fishing experience as if it were but yesterday. I have been  many times in my life (like when I got admitted to the best school), but never more intensely sothan when I received that first fishing     from my uncle.
My uncle, who knew by long    where pickerel(梭鱼)would gather,   placed me at the most favorable point. I threw out my line and waited anxiously for a bite,   the float up and down rapidly on the surface of the water. But nothing came of it. "Try again," said my uncle. Suddenly the float   out of sight. "Now for it," thought I; "here is a fish at last."
I made a strong pull, only to bring up a tangle of weeds. Again and again I cast out my line with aching arms, and drew it back empty. I looked at my uncle   ."Try once more," hesaid;"we fishermen must have   
Suddenly something tugged at my line, and swept off with it into deep water. Pulling it up quickly, I saw a fine pickerel wriggling in the sun. "Uncle!”I cried, looking back in uncontrollable    , "I've got a fish!”"Not yet," said my uncle. Just then, I saw the scared fish shooting into the middle of the stream, my hook hung    from the line. I had lost my prize.
My heart sank with it and I felt like a failure. We tend to speak of the    of childhood as matters of little importance    those of grown-ups. Controlled by reason and self-respect, the sorrows of grown-ups    the social customs and rules of conduct   the sorrows of childhood are a complete abandonment to the passion. The doll's nose is broken, and the whole world    with it.
So, overcome with my bitter disappointment, I refused to be   ,even by my uncle's guarantee that there were more fish in the river. He refitted my bait, and, putting the pole again in my hands, told me to try my luck once more.
"But remember, boy," he said, with a smile, "it's no use to boast of(自夸)anything before it's done, nor then, either,   it speaks for itself."
How often I have been reminded of the fish that I did not catch   !When I hear people talking about their distant aims as if they had already been achieved, I call to mind that   by the riverside, and the wise caution of my uncle takes the form of a proverb of   application: "NEVER BOAST OF YOUR FISH BEFORE YOU CATCH HIM."

People usually get into a hard life and are unable to escape from themselves.

At Christmas Eve, every family      their houses with lanterns and streamers and it was very      everywhere. But he was alone sitting in a bench in a park and recalling the past. It was on the same day last year when he was also alone      his Christmas day away,      new clothes, new shoes, let alone a new car and a new house.
“Damn! I have to spend this Christmas day with these old shoes again. ” he      and began to take off the old shoes.      , he glanced at a young man in a wheel chair passing by him with his hands strugglingly pushing the wheel forward. It      him that he was so lucky to have shoes to wear while that man did not even have the     . Afterwards, the sales man did anything with a calm      and cherished every opportunity to improve himself. He worked hard and tried his best to make progress every day.

We are born healthy, but we are      with life; we complain about our colleagues and dissatisfy with our jobs.
Maybe all of us would feel afraid when we realize we have fallen into such      state of life, but worse is that you even do not      you have fallen into such a dangerous situation.

I have been blessed with the opportunity in my life. It took the near-death experience of my dad to make me realize that my purpose in life is to        others. My dad suffered from leukemia(白血病) in 1998.        the pain and treatment that he put up with inspired me to be a more kind and        person. I realized life is just too          and it was time for me to make some changes — do the things in life that I wanted to do without making        why I couldn’t do them.
My dad        a bone marrow transplant(骨髓移植) operation, and after that he was able to reuse his own “cleaned” marrow, so a donor(捐献者) was not needed. That was excellent        because donors who are a match are hard to come by. That          me to become a bone marrow donor and hopefully help someone else one day. I also         money for the cancer patients. Yet, I was not satisfied with just that. I had to do more, I        blood every other month and seek opportunities to do other acts of kindness daily. The opportunity, some days, presents itself very        and some days I have to seek it out. Either way, it comes.
I would like to        one of my favorite quotes(名言)with you all:
“In an average lifetime, a person        about sixty-five thousand miles. That’s two and half times around the world. I wonder        your steps will take you. I wonder how you’ll use the rest of the        you’re given.”
I want to use my miles to create foot prints of love in this world.

What is it that you love to do but never feel that you get it quite right? Perhaps you don't even try any more because you think what you do is not        enough.
Discouragement seems to follow us a good part of the time,        however hard we work, it seems that there is        someone else who can do it much better.
I have always enjoyed music and it is        to me that every musician has a        of their own.My father _      several instruments and when he played with other people, it was not difficult to        his sound in a group.Whether it was guitar or another instrument, he had his own        sound.
I        heard of a music teacher who commented to a discouraged student, "        else can make the sound that you make." The sound that you make may not be the same as someone else's, but who is to say which is      .It is said that, "        is in the eye of the beholder .” . Perhaps it could be said that a delightful sound is in the ear of the       
Every person has a different tone of voice that        only to them,        we all know people with an unforgettable laugh or a way of        that is unique to them.It might not be the sound of your music or your voice at all.It        be the way you whistle or the sound of your footsteps.
