It was a normal Monday morning at an assembly, and the old headmaster was addressing the students on important things in life and about   21   ourselves to what is important to us. This is how the story went:
   An old man lived in a certain part of London, and he would wake up every morning and go to the   22 . He would get the train right to Central London, and then sit at the street corner and   23 . He would do this every single day of his life. He sat at the same street corner and begged for almost 20 years.
   His house was filthy (肮脏的), and a stench came out of the house and it smelled   24 . The neighbors could not   25   the smell anymore, so they summoned the police officers to   26   the place. The officers   27   down the door and cleaned the house. There were small bags of   28   all over the house that he had   29   over the years.
   The police counted the money, and they soon realized that the old man was a   30 . They waited outside his house in anticipation (预料) to   31   the good news with him. When he arrived home that evening, he was met by one of the officers who told him that there was no   32   for him to beg any more as he was a rich man now, a millionaire.
He said   33   at all; he went into his house and locked the door. The next morning he woke up as usual, went to the street and continued to beg.
34 , this old man had no great plans, dreams or anything   35   for his life. We learn nothing from this story other than staying   36   the things we enjoy doing, commitment.
   We should remain true to our course, which may mean devoting yourselves to things that people around you would   37   disapprove. Let nothing distract us from being happy, let nothing else determine our fate, but   38 .

Many people are 37 that most of today’s social problems are because of the “me ” generation; youngsters are just out for 38 and pay no attention to others or their needs. Indeed, a common belief is that today’s youngsters won’t do anything 39 there is something in it for them.
