A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, tempting (诱人的)apple on one of the branches of an apple tree hanging out over a tall fence. The boy wasn’t much of a fruit-eater,  1 a bar of chocolate if given the choice, but, as they say, the forbidden fruit can be tempting. Seeing the apple, the boy wanted it. The more he looked at it, the     2   he felt and the more he wanted that apple.
3    as high as he could, but even at his tallest  4  , he was unable to touch it. He began to  5 up and down , as high as he could, at the  6  of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple . Still it remained out of .   Not giving up , he thought , if only he had something to  8 on . His school bag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to  9  the things inside , like his lunch box , pencil case , and Game boy. Looking around, he hoped he might find an old box , a rock , or , with luck , even a ladder , but it was a tidy neighborhood and there was nothing he could use. He had tried everything he could think to do. Without seeing any other choices , he gave up and started to walk   10  . At first he felt angry and disappointed thinking about how hungry he had become from his  11  , and how he really wanted that apple .The more he  12 like this , the more unhappy he became.
However ,the boy of our story was a pretty smart guy, even if he couldn’t always get what he wanted .He started to say to himself . This isn’t    13 ,I don’t have the apple and I’m feeling miserable as well. There’s 14   more I can do to get the apple-that is unchangeable-but we are supposed to be able to  15  our feelings. If that’s the case, what can I do to feel better?
