IF and WHEN often had lunch together. Their conversation always  16  on the things they hoped to achieve and they loved to talk about them. 

This particular Saturday when they met for lunch, WHEN  17  IF wasn’t in a great mood（心情）. After they sat at the usual table  18  for them, WHEN asked IF, “You don’t seem your usual  19  self?” IF replied,“Yesterday I saw a course I wanted to take. If only I  20  the time.”

WHEN knew exactly how IF felt and said, “I too saw a   21   and I’ m going to register when I get   22   money.” WHEN then questioned IF, “What about the new job you were going to apply for?” IF answered, “I would have applied, but my  23  broke down. I couldn’t type my resume(简历).”

“Don’t worry. I’ve been thinking about looking for another job also,  24  I’ll wait and when the weather gets  25  I will look then. I hate this awful weather.”

The man sitting nearby heard them talking about when this and if that. When he couldn’t  26  it anymore, he went to them and said, “I think I know  27  you could solve your problems.”

IF smiled and thought that even if he knew the  28  they faced, there was no way he could help!   29  , IF asked the man for advice. The man said, “Your conversation reminds me of an old   30  : IF and WHEN were planted, and nothing   31   .”

IF and WHEN both looked surprised and began to feel   32   of living their life for the “ifs” and “whens”. Finally they came to a(n)   33  : next time they met, there would be no “ifs” or “whens”; they would   34   talk about what they had  35  !
