阅读下面短文，在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案（每格限填一词）。
Why you should think big  
If you have something valuable in mind, a service to offer, or an idea to develop, then you present it to everyone to increase its scope(范围). Why not make full use of it?
The fact is, when you have a strong enough vision(远见), you may have the courage. And then you simply have to pursue it, however crazy it might seem to others.
Remember that everything starts small
Rome wasn’t built in a day. Everything starts small. Scientists say that everything in the universe came from a smaller unit than you can possibly imagine. So it doesn’t matter where you are at present, because from small beginnings come great things.
Think bigger by enlisting(争取) others
To think big, you need to see yourself as a small part of a greater whole. Enlist people who are better than you. If you’re not the most organized person, don’t just be unhappy about it; find someone who is better.
Big thinkers know their personal limitations(局限性). Gather people around you who can do what you can’t do to make sure your dream grows.
Think big by focusing on future regrets(遗憾)
There is an old saying, “We regret not the things we did do, but the things we didn’t.” You’ll never know how far it could go unless you see how far you can take something.
If you have big plans, just close your eyes. And strongly imagine how regretful you will be if you don’t try or attempt properly.
Feel that it is your human duty to think big
When something is probably a real service to mankind, then it is a human duty to think and act big. Even if you don’t succeed at last, it is still valuable to think big.

My mother used to ask me what was the most important part of the body. Through the years I would believe         I thought was the correct answer. When I was younger, I thought         was very important to us as humans, so I said, “My ears, Mommy”. She said, “No. Many people are       . But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again soon,”
Several years passed         she asked me again. For I had often thought of the correct answer, so this time I told her, “Mommy, sight is very important to everybody, so it         be our eyes”. She looked at me and told me, “You are learning fast, but the answer is not correct because there are many people who are blind.”
Over the years, Mother asked me a couple more        and always her answer was, “No, but you are getting        every year, my child.” Then last year, my grandpa died. Everybody was crying when it was our         to say our final good-bye to Grandpa. Mom asked me, “Do you know the most important body part yet, my dear?”
I was         when she asked me this now. I always thought this was a        between her and me. She saw the puzzlement (疑惑)on my face and told me, “This question is very important. It          that you have really lived your life.” I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, “My dear, the most important body part is your       ”. I asked, “Is it because it        your head?” She replied, “No, it is because a crying friend or loved one can rest his head on it. I only hope that you have enough friends that you will have a shoulder to cry       when you need it.” Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a selfish (自私的）one. It is sympathetic (同情）to the pain of       .

For example， one day， I decided to      some friends to my home. My bedroom was not in order. Books were everywhere. And I didn’t make the bed. I asked my       to help me clean it，       she still said， “Do it yourself， girl.”
Because of my “lazy mother”， I have to         my clothes and clean my room. I have to help my parents         I even have to go to the dentist by myself. It is really hard  for me to do everything well， but I have learned      .

Are you the only child in the family? If so, you are the most important in your family.
Parents are the closest people to you in the world. But a lot of middle school students have a problem. They feel they are not as close to their parents as before. They even don’t think their parents are fair （公平的） to them.
?Some students complain that their parents often say a lot to them, but never listen to them. Some say their parents don’t allow them to play computer games when other people are doing it. Others say when they are making phone calls to friends, their parents like to ask if they’re speaking to a boy or a girl. These make them very unhappy. Some students even decided to leave home because they’re afraid to tell their parents when they have done something wrong, particularly(尤其) when they do badly in exams. Then they usually think running away is the only choice(选择). But they don’t know running away may bring them some more problems. Problems are parts of life. Here are some suggestions for you to solve your problems.
?◆Find a good chance to talk with your parents. Don’t be afraid to tell them your feeling.
?◆Keep a diary to help you understand more about yourself and your feeling.
?◆Get help from others like good friends or teachers.
?◆Show your parents you are growing up. Then they will feel you are no longer a small child.
?If you follow the advice, you will have a happy life and never think of running away.2·1·c·n·j·y
