Last January I was given a chance to work in another country. At first, I lived a  36  life, but soon I met a group of new friends and they were really nice.
Then something   37  happened. One of our friends suffered from kidney stones (肾结石), which had to be   38  surgically as soon as possible. But it was not as   39  as that! Our friend could not   40  the operation, which put him into deep   41 . I didn’t know how to help him because I didn’t have any money either.   42 , I never lost hope. Instead I tried to think of other   43 and told him not to worry because everything would be all right.
Before I left the hospital, I talked to the surgeon and asked him to do the surgery, saying I would pay the expenses the next day   44   I had that kind of money. Well, I must have been   45  because the surgeon agreed to do it! But how was I going to get that much money?
All I knew was that I needed to help my friend! Although it could be   46  to deal with this kind of situation, I decided to make some efforts. I tried to borrow money but failed. I tried   47   my things but no one wanted them. Then I had the idea of talking to my    48 . I asked him if I could have my next two months’ salary in advance—without even thinking on how I would  49  for two months with no money. He was surprised and asked me the reason. I told him that I had a friend who was really in need.   50  I convinced him too and then he gave my two months’ salary without any   51 !
Upon getting the money, I ran to the hospital and paid all the bills. My friend didn’t know how to thank me. I just said, “Come on! Give me a   52 !”
Friendship may not only be found at the happy moment but sometimes you can find it on the  53  time in your life! I’ve done a good thing by being a (an)   54  friend and I think it is well worth the   55 .

Another secret of animals’ survival is telepathy(心灵感应). This sense becomes atrophied(衰退) in man, but a(n)   1 thought-communication functions in animals.

On most     4   when we made our irregular visit she was waiting for us. By following the spoor(野兽的足迹),we     5   that she had sometimes walked 50 or 60 miles to meet us.
The same thing    6  when I took Elsa’s sisters to Nairobi to be flown to the Rotterdam zoo, Elsa’s zoo. Elsa stayed behind with George in Isiolo 180 miles     7   . He did not know when I was coming back, no person knew. But Elsa knew. On the morning of my     8   she sat down at the entrance and wouldn’t make any     9   until I arrived in the evening.
I have known this kind of thought-communication with the animal with whom I’ve lived. When Elsa died, I woke in the night, knowing what had happened, even though I was several miles away. The same thing     10   later with one of Pippa’s cubs.
I don’t     11   this sensitivity with my own kind. Feel far more in tune with what is going on when I am in the bush than when I am in London on Nairobi.

But if men could awaken or    13   it in themselves, and then cooperate by trusting each other,    14    fearing and treating one another    15  , the world would be a far better place.

A few weeks after my first wife, Georgia, was called to heaven, I was cooking dinner for my son and myself. For a   11  , I had decided on frozen peas. As I was cutting open the bag, it   12  from my hand and crashed to the floor. The peas, like marbles(弹珠),   13  everywhere. I tried to use a broom(扫帚),    14  with each sweep, they just rolled across the kitchen.
For the next week, every time I was in the   15  , I found a pea——in a corner, or behind a table leg. They kept   16  . Eight months later I pulled out the refrigerator to clean behind it, and   17__  12 frozen peas hidden underneath.
At the time I found those few remaining   18  , I was in a new relationship with a wonderful  __19  I’d met in a support group. After we married, I was reminded   20  those peas under the refrigerator, and realized that my   21  had been like that bag of frozen peas. It had scattered(分散). My wife had died; I was in a new city with a busy job, and with a son having trouble   22  his new surroundings and the   23  of his mother. I was a bag of spilled frozen peas; my life had come apart and scattered.
When life gets you   24  , when everything you know comes apart, and when you think you’ll never   25  , remember that it’s just a bag of scattered frozen peas. The peas can be   26  , and life will move on. You’ll find all the peas   27  , including the ones that are hardest to find. And when you’ve got them   28  you’ll start to feel whole again.
The life you know can break apart at any time. But you’ll have to   29  , and how fast you collect your peas depends on you. Will you keep scattering them around with a broom,   30   will you pick them up one by one and put your life back together?

Who is setting your standards for you ?
A true story has it that one elder man  36  to jog around the local high school football field. As he huffed and puffed(气喘吁吁) along, the team was  37 . The players soon started running sprints up and down the field. The man told himself “I will 38  keep running until they quit.”
So he ran. And they ran. And he ran some more. And they kept running. And he kept running until he 39  finally run no more. He stopped in  40 . One of the players, equally out of breath, approached him and said in a crying voice, “Boy, I am so glad that you finally stopped. 41  told us we had to keep running  42 the old guy who was jogging !” He was watching them. They were watching him. He was letting them set his 43 , on the contrary, they allow him to set 44 .
My question is this: Are you keeping  45  with somebody else in your daily life? Are you 46  people to set your standards for you? What about your standards, or  47 , for moral behavior or even your way of building up your own characteristics ? Or guidelines for what kind of life  48  you want? Negative or positive? Do you keep pace with those  49  you, or do you decided yourself just 50  you will live your life? The true is that only you are  51 to determine what your standards will be.
Set your standards too low, and you will know only  52 . But set high standards and you can live an immeasurably full and  53 life. For only when you  54  the best that is within yourself, will you experience great living. Just as an old saying goes: “Think big 55 , and win big success.”
