14．It was the summer of my first year at college．Instead of heading home for a nice long（36）C，three of my friends and I had decided to stay and take some（37）Bcourses．The four of us had（38）Dthe top floor of an old house to live in．My own bed was jammed into a smelly former laundry room and each night was a new adventure in humidity（湿气）．（39）B，it felt exciting to be out of the dorms and in my own place for the first time．After the first few weeks，though，the（40）Dfaded and homesickness set in．I found myself sitting（41）C in my sweaty bedroom each night thinking of my home，my Mom，and my Dad．My summers had always been a（42）Atime．I spent hours riding my bike，playing basketball and swimming．I sat on the porch（走廊） and talked to my Mom while she（43）Bher flowers．I took pride in helping my Dad gather firewood（44）Bthe winter．And every night I sat at a dinner table full of delicious food（45）Awith love while my family（46）Athe dining-room with sweet laughter．Now I found myself（47）Bthem more than ever．
Finally when my spirits were at their（48）CI heard a knock at the door．I opened it and was（49）Dto see Mom and Dad standing there with big smiles to fill my（50）Dheart and a box full of food to（51）Amy hungry friends．We spent the（52）Ceating，chatting，and just being together．It felt so good，and I felt so（53）D．Just as Victor Hugo put it，"The （54）Chappiness of life is the conviction（确信） that one is loved．"It was that（55）Aof happiness that my Mom an Dad gave me that afternoon and every day of my life．

13．That afternoon，a disease forced Diana to experience an emergency operation to deliver the couple's new daughter．At 12inches long and（41）D  only one pound and nine ounces，she was a premature baby．
But the doctor's soft words dropped like （42）B．"I don't think she's going to make it"he said．"There's only a 10-percent（43）A she will pull through the night，and even then，if by some chance she does make it，her future could be a very（44）C one．"
David and Diana listened as the doctor （45）D the serious problems the newly-born baby，Anna，would （46）B face if she survived．She would never walk；she would never（47）A；she would probably be blind；and so on．
"No!No!"was all Diana could （48）C．She and David，with their 5-year-old son Dusfin，had long（49）Dthe day they would have a daughter to become a （50）A of four．Now，within a matter of hours，that dream was slipping away．But Diana insisted，"I don't care what the doctors say!One day she will be coining home with us!"
Certainly，there was （51）C a moment when Anna suddenly grew（52）B．But as the weeks went by，she did（53）D gain an ounce of weight here and an ounce of（54）A there．At last，when Anna turned two months old，her parents were able to（55）Aher in their arms for the very first time though （56）D continued to gently but coldly（57）B that her chances of surviving，much less living any kind of normal life，were next to zero．
Finally，Anna went home from the hospital，just as her mother had （58）C．Today，five years later，Anna is a little hut lively young girl with bright gray eyes（59）B  a strong interest for life．She shows no （60）C of any mental or physical injuries Simply，she is everything a little girl can be．

12．Remembering My Father's Vest
People get into trouble because they don't know enough to keep cool．As a child，I had a lot of （41）B that had been held back and not released．Worse still，I was not good at（42）Cconstructively．
Once as I was getting ready for school，my mother（43）Bhanded me my father's vest instead of mine．This was around the time when I was going to be larger in（44）Athan my father，so as I put on the vest，I felt like I was being choked in it!I （45）D that it was a small oversight（疏忽） on my mother's part，but（46）Cthe feeling of being choked drowned me and I got very angry．
I took my anger out on my mother（47）A thinking much．I was so upset when she had handed me the wrong vest，and I （48）Cby violently tearing it apart from my chest!
Later，my mother shared her own（49）Bwith my father："See what your son has done．"
Instead of scolding or abusing me，my father（50）Aresponded by asking my mother to（51）Dthe vest．He then worn it to work the next day．
When my mother told me about my father's response much later，when I had（52）Afrom my fit，I immediately felt a great sense of（53）Dfor my violent behavior，just （54）Cthat he was spending the entire day wearing a（n）（55）Cvest．At the same time，I was filled with great（56）Dfor my father，whose gentle kindness taught me a life lesson I would treasure forever．
On that day，I made a（57）B never to let anger get the better of me．I learn to（58）Aother when I think that they behave in an unfair，cruel，or unacceptable way，（59）Cforgiveness is a tool to turn anger off．And whenever I have difficulty（60）Bmy strong emotion，I try to remember my father's vest．

11．Face adversity（逆境 ）with a smile
I told my friend Graham that I often cycle the two miles from my house to the town center but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route．He replied，"You mean（41）B．"He explained that I should be glad of the（42）C exercise that the hill provided．
My（43）Ato the hill has now changed．I used to（44）Das I approached it but now I tell myself the following．This hill will exercise my heart and lungs．It will help me to（45）Cand get fit．It will mean that I live longer．This hill is my friend．（46）B，I have a smile of（47）A as I reach the top of the hill．
Problems are there to be faced and（48）D．We cannot achieve anything with a/an（49）Clife．Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to（50）Aan University degree．She wrote，"Character cannot be（51）Din ease and quiet．Only through（52）B of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened，vision cleared，ambition inspired and success achieved．"
One of the main（53）Cof success in life is our attitude towards adversity．At times we all face hardships，problems，accidents and difficulties．（54）Awe cannot choose the adversity，we can choose our attitude towards it．
Douglas Bader was 21when in 1931he had both legs amputated（截肢）following a flying accident．He was（55）Bto fly again and went on to become one of the leading flying aces（擅长的人）．He was a/an（56）C to others during the war．He said，"Don't listen to anyone who tells you that you can't do this or that．That's nonsense．（57）Byour mind，and you'll never（58）D  crutches（拐杖）or a stick，then have a go at everything．Go to school，join in all the games you can．Go（59）Ayou want to．But never，never let them （60）Dyou that things are too difficult or impossible．"

10．Education from My Father
My memories of my father are slim because he was so sick in the last years of his life．But there are（36）Cthat I am often reminded of and which may have had some bearing on my love of（37）A．
When I was small I was somewhat（38）B of lightning and thunder．My father explained it．The explanation was in（39）D that a child could understand but was basically correct．I gained a better （40）Alater，but I didn't have to unlearn anything．
What he said was that there was electricity in the cloud（41）Bit traveled to the ground like a spark．When it traveled（42）Dthe air it made the air so hot that it（43）B．Then there was nothing where the air had been and the air all around rushed in to（44）A the space．He clapped his hands together very loud，（45）Dto be the air rushing in，and said that makes the thunder．When I hear thunder，I can still hear that （46）A．
He explained why if it was cloudy in the winter the night was warmer than if it was（47）C．It was one of those nights when the sky was full of stars：no moon，no town lights．But there were more stars than you could （48）Cand they had color too．He said that if there were no clouds，we had no blankets and were（49）B to the universe．Our warmth was going to （50）Athe whole universe．When there were clouds，they were like blankets and we were not exposed to the universe．I （51）D feel on the edge of space on a very clear night．
I am sure there were many other lessons that I（52）C  but no longer remember．What I did（53）D，in general，was that there were explanations and that the more I understood the m，the more    comfortable the world was to live in．I was not taught that there were （54）Cbut that there was understanding if you looked for it．This may be why I have always been（55）B in science．

9．That holiday morning I didn't have to attend school．Usually，on holidays，Mother（36）B me to sleep in．And I would certainly take full advantage of it．On this particular morning，（37）C，I felt like getting up early．
I stood by my window overlooking the（38）A，having nothing better to do．But as it turned out，I was soon to learn about something （39）Din life．
As I watched several people go by，get into their cars and go off，I （40）Aan old man on a bicycle with a bucket（桶） on its（41）Band a basket of rags and bottles on its back-carriage．He（42）C from one car to another，washing and cleaning them．From the water on the ground，it seemed that he had already （43）Dwashing and cleaning about a dozen or more cars．He must have begun to work quite early in the morning．
Several thoughts（44）Amy mind as I watched him work．He wasn't well-dressed．He had on a pair of shorts and a（n）（45）CT-shirt．The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern（46）Dwould want to be seen riding on．But he seemed（47）Bwith life．There he was，working hard at his small business，（48）Aat passers-by and stopping to chat now and then（49）C elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby．
There was a noticeable touch of （50）Din the way he seemed to be doing things-（51）Athe windscreen （挡风玻璃），then standing back to admire it； scrubbing （擦净） the wheels and（52）C，standing back to see what they look like after the scrub．
It was a （53）Ato learn，I felt．At no age need one have to beg for a （54）Bif one has good health and is willing to work hard．For a while I felt （55）Dof myself．Young as I am-just sixteen，and there was this old man who must have been usefully engaged perhaps before the sun appeared above the horizon．

8．Joy in the Journey
If you have ever been discouraged because of failure，please read on．For often，achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing．Let me explain．
Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house．As they were working，a couple of older boys stopped by to（41）C．"What are you doing？"asked one of the visitors．"We plan to dig a hole all the way through the（42）B!"One of the brothers volunteered（43）C
The older boys began to （44）A，telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was（45）C．After a long silence，one of the（46）D picked up a jar full of spiders，worms and many other kinds of insects．He （47）B the lid and showed the wonderful（48）A to the scoffing（嘲笑的）visitors．Then he said quietly and（49）B，"Even if we don't dig all the way through the earth，look at what we have found（50）B the way!"
Their goal was far too ambitious，but it did cause them to dig．And that is （51）A a goal is for-to cause us to move in the（52）B we have chosen，in other words，to keep us （53）C!But not every goal will be fully （54）D．Not every job will end（55）D．Not every hope will come to pass．Not every love will last．Not every dream will be（56）B．But when you fall （57）A of your aim，perhaps you can say，"Yes，but look at what I found along the way!Look at the wonderful things（58）C my life because I tried to do something!"It is in the digging （59）D life is lived．And I believe it is the joy in the journey，in the end，that truly（60）A．

7．Every time I passed boys who were playing basketball，I stopped to silently watch them．I really（41）Cthem．But as a girl，I once thought that I could never play basketball．
I like playing basketball though I'm not good at it．I've had a basketball （42）DI was a child．At first，I could play freely because no one（43）Bwhen I was just a kid．But as I grew up it seemed harder and harder for me to enjoy basketball．
At school，it was always the boys who played basketball during PE classes．The girls were（44）Aallowed to play volleyball or badminton．
