One autumn morning 6 years ago, Johnson Liao was crying in the hall of Taipei’s Sherwood Hotel, life seemed unfair. The people who laughed as they walked 36 were taking their health 37 granted, just as he 38 himself. Now, 39__, he felt helpless—and he couldn’t even show his disappointment in his 40 .
Seeking more personally satisfying 41 , he had just left a successful job as a commercial artist when it seemed that fate(命运)played a cruel trick on him. It was at this time 42 he developed cancer and was 43 to work. But that moment in the hotel was a turning point for Johnson. He began to 44 the fact that there is no such a thing as fate, only 45 . Since then, he has published several imaginative, illustrated(带插图的)books.
According to Johnson, you are 46 you choose to be. You can give up or you can work to be a happier person. Johnson realized that, while the world 47 seems unfair, your choice can change your life.
This idea can be 48 in Johnson’s books, where his characters show the powerlessness they feel 49 making their choices. The message that goes with Johnson’s drawings, however, is 50 .Though the world may make us feel small, we must be 51 . Everything will be all right for us—as it is for the “small people” in Johnson’s books—if we make choices that are 52 for us.
In spite of his new 53 and wealth, Johnson prefers working 54 at home with his wife and daughter. He spends his mornings drawing. To Johnson, living a life as he chooses means much more than money and fame could 55 .

第二节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)
The simplest way to say it is this: I believe in my mother. My 【小题1】 began when I was just a kid. I 【小题2】 becoming a doctor. My mother was a worker. Through her work, she observed that 【小题3】 people spent a lot more time reading than they 【小题4】 watching television. She announced that my brother and I
【小题5】watch two to three TV programs during the week. With our free time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and then 【小题6】 her written book reports. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a 【小题7】 . My mother was illiterate (文盲的).
When I entered high school I was an A-student, but not for long. I 【小题8】 the fashionable clothes. I wanted to 【小题9】 the guys. I went from being an A-student to a B-student to a C-student. One night my mother came home after 【小题10】 at one of her several jobs and I complained about not having enough Italian knit shirts. She said, “Okay, I’ll give you all the money I make this week scrubbing (擦洗) floors and cleaning bathrooms, and you can buy 【小题11】 food and pay the bills. With the money that is 【小题12】 , you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want.” I was very 【小题13】 with that plan, but once I had finished paying for all of the important things, there was 【小题14】 left. I realized that my mother was always dealing with money well to be able to 【小题15】 a roof over our heads and to put food on the table. I also realized that immediate satisfaction wasn’t going to get me anywhere. _【小题16】__ required intellectual (智力的) preparation. I went back to my 【小题17】 and became an A-student again. Finally, I 【小题18】 my dream and I became a doctor. My story is really my mother’s story — a woman with 【小题19】 formal education who used her position as a parent to change the lives of many people around the globe. Now I believe that there is no job more 【小题20】 than parenting.
