  More than I realized, Dad has helped me keep my balance.

  When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen with my father.He was severely disabled and very   1  , and when we walked together, his hand on my arm for   2  , people would stare.I would inwardly feel uncomfortable at the unwanted   3  .If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never   4   that he knew.

  It was   5   to coordinate(调整)our steps-his hesitant, mine impatient-and because of that, we didn’t   6   much as we went along.But as we started out, he always said, “You set the   7  .I will try to follow you.”

  Our usual walk was to or from the subway, which was   8   he got to work.He went to work despite illnesses and nasty weather.He almost never missed a day and would   9   it to the office   10   others couldn’t.A matter of pride.

  He never talked about himself as an object of pity, nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or   11  .What he looked for   12   others was a “good heart” and if he found one, the   13   was good enough for him.

  Now that I am older, I believe that his idea is a proper   14   by which to judge people, even though I   15   don’t know exactly what a “good heart” is.  16   I know the times when I don’t have one myself.

  He has been gone many years now, but I think of him often.I wonder if he   17   I was unwilling to be seen with him during our   18  .Now I am sorry that I never told him how sorry I was for my feeling   19   to be with him in public and how unworthy I felt to be his daughter.I think of him when I complain about trifles(something unimportant), when I am envious of another’s good fortune, and when I don’t possess a“good heart”.

  At such times I put my hand on his arm to   20   my balance, and say, “You set the pace.I will try to follow you.”

(17)

我不知道父亲是否意识到我们一起走时我的不情愿。

(19)

我为曾与父亲当众在一起感到羞愧而感到后悔。

当我出现心理失衡时(指上一段最后提到的情况)我总能想到父亲,在这一刻我要把手放在父亲胳膊上,重新找回平衡。

  The survey about childhood in the Third World shows that the struggle for survival is long and hard.But in the rich world, children can   1   from a different kind of poverty of the spirit.  2  , one Western country alone now sees 14, 000 attempted suicides(自杀)every year by children under 15, and one child   3   five needs psychiatric(心理)advice.

  There are many good things about   4   in the Third World.Take the close and constant relation between children and their parents, relatives and neighbours for example.In the West, the very nature of work puts distance between   5   and children.But in most Third World villages mother and father do not go miles away each day to work in offices.  6  , the child sees mother and father, relations and neighbours working   7   and often shares in that work.

  A child   8   in this way learns his or her role through joining in the community’s   9  :helping to dig or build, look after animals or babies rather than   10   playing with water and sand in kindergarten, keeping pets   11   playing with dolls.

  These children may grow up with a less oppressive sense of space and time than the   12   children.Their sense of days and time has a lot to do with the change of seasons and positions of the sun or the moon in the sky.Children in the rich world,   13  , are provided with a watch as one of the   14   signs of growing up, so that they can   15   along with their parents about being late for school times, meal times, bed times, the times of TV shows…

  Mr.Jones woke early one morning, before the sun had risen, it was a beautiful morning,   1   he went to the window and looked out.He was surprised to see   2   middle-aged professor, who walked in the university just up the road from Mr.Jones’s house,   3   the direction of the town.He had grey hair and thick glasses, and was carrying an umbrella, a morning newspaper and a bag.Mr.Jones thought that he must have   4   by the night train, and decided to walk to the university instead of taking a taxi.

  Mark Gibson is a former gymnastics coach who once worked with many excellent athletes.He often tells a wonderful story about a 15-year-old   1   girl, Cindy, whose attitude brought out the best in everyone.

  Cindy wasn't a great   2  , but when she was in the gym everyone complained less, worked harder, and, not   3  , achieved more.Cindy was such a powerful motivator   4   she could see nothing.When it was her turn to do the vault(跳马), mother would also   5   alongside her, and tell her how close she was to the vault.When her mom said,“Vault!”, Cindy would reach out and jump,   6   her mother and herself.

  Cindy loved the sport and kept   7   because she and her mom refused to be defeated by her   8  .Mark called her the most   9   member of the team, not because of her   10   ability, but because of her heart and because she   11   a standard of perseverance(坚持)and courage that inspired others to get more out of themselves.Everyone who   12   her work hard to be the best she could be   13   how much more they could get out of themselves.

  This is leadership-leadership by   14  .And we see this sort of leadership not only in   15   but also in families and in the workplace.Often the most important members of the team are not the   16  , most skilled, or most powerful.Their   17   is in their attitude and their ability to energize and   18   others with their optimism, enthusiasm, and determination.

  People who know how to get the best out of themselves get the best of others.

  There's no doubt that Cindy's   19   has a great effect on her teammates.A person's character matters most because it comes from within and does not depend on   20   alone.

  One day, a train was approaching the small town of Cheekyville.On the train was a   1   guy with a big suitcase.He was called William Warbler and he looked very   2   indeed.But what made him most unusual was the fact that whenever he needed to   3   he did it by singing opera.It didn’t matter to William whether it was simply a matter of answering a brief greeting, like “good day”.He would   4  , “Goood dayyy to youuuuuu…tooooooo!”

  From that day, William gave up singing   15  .Now he did it only during his stage appearances and world tours.Some people suspected   16   he had changed, but others still had no idea, and continued believing him to be somewhat mad.They wouldn’t have thought so   17   they had seen what William kept in his big suitcase.

  “Practice every second, for you never know when your   18   will come.”

  Little did people realize that rather   19   he got the role in the opera because the   20   had heard William singing while out buying a newspaper.
