Long long ago, there was a small village. This village had a 1 tradition. At the beginning of every year, any boy who had reached the age of majority (the state of legally being an adult) was given land and money to build a home. The boy had to 2 his home before winter. If his home failed to endure the cold weather in winter, the villagers could not 3 him in any way.
One 4 , Paul and Marc reached their majority. They 5 their land and money and decided to search nearby villages for ideas on building their homes. In each village, they found the nicest 6 and talked to the owners. Each owner gladly offered 7 .
After Marc saw several homes, he 8 the best ideas and went back to his own land. Paul, 9 , continued collecting more ideas. Soon he had so many great ideas that he began to 10 some of them. But he always believed he could find even better ideas in the next village.
Marc began building his home. He had several false starts, 11 his home gradually rose from his land. By fall, Marc had finished his home. It wasn't perfect, but it was strong and he could 12 it later. Paul enjoyed all the beautiful homes and 13 with home owners. The first snow came and Paul, realizing he was running out of time, 14 back to his land. He built the best home he could in the time he had, but it was 15 . The first winter storm destroyed his home and he froze to 16 . The villagers mourned for him.
Marc 17 the winter. Each year, Marc searched for other good ideas he could use to make his own home look better. He became a leader in the village, 18 a family, and lived a happy, content life.
We all build and improve our own mental homes. It’s 19 and fun for us to search for ideas from other mental home owners, but we only improve our own mental home if we actually 20 the best ideas.

I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and 36 asking for help. After all, I was a teenage girl, and I couldn’t bear people to look at me and think I was not 37 them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads. Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step 38 on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.
One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I 39 something. “I’m awfully sorry,” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been 40 to a lamppost. This was just one of the 41 things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn’t stop 42 passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.
Generally in this situation, because I hated 43 I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would 44 a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to 45 my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.
46 on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them 47 making a fool of myself. I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.

People always say that if God closed a door in front of you, there must be a window opened for you. Yes, people always say that, but 36 is the window for me?
I am not disappointed, just a little worried 37 as my roommate said, “ Why are you angry with yourself once you 38 to do anything?” I have no idea. I just can’t 39 me if I can’t understand some easy things. Currently, I just feel__ 40 _with myself because I couldn’t finish the assignment on the lab, and what was 41 worse was that actually I did not understand what the 42 was! Fiona asked me why I didn’t 43 for help. The problem is that if I have to ask some silly questions, I will feel 44 .
Before I came here I was confident. But I have totally lost it. Sometimes I can’t__ 45 find the right words; sometimes I am too shy to 46 others. I have to admit that I am 47 .
The wisest people are always 48 who can take advantage of others’ wisdom. But I was so stupid as to close myself and 49 a lot of time soaking inside the workbook, 50 made me more confused. Why can’t I follow the sentence? I am 51 to get help the next time I have any questions. I can 52 I am not smart, but I shouldn’t hide it. I must 53 it as soon as possible. 54 I will have to waste much more time on it—just like tonight.
Difficulties always go with me. Go 55 ! I can make it.

My friend Monty Roberts told me a story about a young boy. One day at school, the boy was asked to write a paper 36 what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.
That night he wrote a seven – paper 37 his dream of owning a farm. He put a great deal of his 38 into the paper and the next day he handed it in to his 39 . Two days later he received his paper back. On the 40 page was a large red F with a 41 that read, “See me after class.” The boy went to see the teacher after class and asked, “ 42 did I receive an F?” The teacher said, “This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like 43 . Owning a farm requires a lot of money. There’s no 44 a young man could ever do it.” Then the teacher added, “ 45 you will rewrite this paper, I will reconsider your 46 .”
The boy went home and 47 about it long and hard. Finally, after a week, he turned in the 48 paper, making no changes.
Monty then said, “I tell you this story because you are sitting in my farm. I 49 have that school paper over fireplace.” He added, “The 50 part of the story is that two summers ago the same schoolteacher 51 30 kids to camp out on my farm. When the teacher was 52 , he said, ‘Look Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream 53 . During those years I stole a lot of kids’ dreams. 54 you had enough courage not to 55 yours.”
Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what…
