The first event of my life to be printed into my memory occurred when I was three. My mother stands, working in the  41  and then glances at me with a  42  smile. Two feet down the table, I knock on a chair with a bowl and a spoon,  43  my own invisible (无形的) powder. We wear  44  dresses, mine the leftover  45   from hers, sky blue — mommy’s favorite color. I am her shadow.
However, by 14 I could not  46  my mother. All that I heard every day was NO. I wanted to dye my hair and she said no. I wanted to  47  late with my friends and she said no. I didn’t understand why she said no. She was trying to  48  me from aches and pains and mistakes  49  in her teens. Several years later, I finally understood her, but it was too late. She became ill. I cried and  50 , “Don’t take her, God, please! She is my mother, my mommy, ma, the woman who gave me life. All my years,  51  the hard times and the good, she has been there,  52  to me forever by an invisible umbilical cord (脐带) that lasts longer after birth.”But this cord, this love could do nothing to stop the cancer from  53 .
A few years later  54  I myself lay in the hospital bed, my newly born daughter was  55  in my arms. I cried and smiled and prayed. Please help me to  56  her into a wonderful girl. And looking down  57  her eyes, I could see the message they held, “Your  58  would be proud.”
I stand in the kitchen now, and these thoughts flashed through my mind. I glance at my young daughter. A  59  feeling rushes through my soul as I take in the familiar  60 .
I am my mother’s shadow.

Mr. Glen is a millionaire. Five years ago, after returning from abroad to his motherland, he   36  up his small company. Speaking of success, Glen often tells us a story about his  37  expensive “school” fees. He always owes his success to it.
At that time, Glen, who already got a PH Degree, decided to return to the motherland, starting a company. Before   38 , he bought a Rolex watch with the   39  made through years of work after school and the scholarships. At the airport he had to accept the routine customs check. The watch on his wrist was also demanded to be  40   down for inspection. Glen knew that carrying the   41  goods out had to pay the tax. And he worried about paying   42 for his watch. So when he was checked, he told a lie that his watch was a worthless  43  . When he was  44  of his “smarts”, immediately ,   45  the presence of Glen, the officers hit the watch, which  46   nearly 100,000 yuan into pieces at hearing Glen’s words. Glen was amazed.  47 he understood why, he was taken to the office to be   48  strictly. For many times of entry-exit   49  he knew that only those people in the “blacklist” would “enjoy” this special treatment. The officers looked out every thing carefully in the box, and warned him   50  time of entry and exit he must accept the check and if   51___   reusing and carrying fake and shoddy(劣质的) goods, he would be charged according to law! Suddenly, his face turned red, and he had nothing in mind after  52 the plane for long.
After returning to the homeland, he often told the story to his family, and his employees,
too. He said that this made a deep  53  on him, because an additional high “school” fee that
he had ever paid made him realize the value of  54  , which he would 55  as a secret of
his success forever.

When I was in my early twenties, I moved away from my home state of Wisconsin to attend graduate school. I chose to go to the University Of Arizona in Tucson and   36   there. Upon landing in early June, I was shocked by the lack of   37  and the burning desert heat. After less than two days in that  38 I called my parent to question whether I had made the  39  choice and to announce that I was   40  considering coming home. My father, in a calm and  41   voice, indicated that I always had a  42 . I could always come home and be welcome there. But in fact, we both   43  I wouldn’t come home at the time. Needless to say, I chose to   44 .
Many years have passed. My father’s    45  words remain with me. Knowing that I can always   46 , I’ve been able to   47  several challenging situations -unemployment, divorce and even the    48   of my only son. I have also used these words in many cases where others need to know that someone   49  and that they do have a choice.
Whether  50 is earthly, spiritual, or some sense of calm, knowing that we can come home will be just enough to  51 us on our way.
It  52 me, in a way, of the prodigal son(回头的浪子) who found  53 and love upon returning home. While we don’t have to be like him and hit bottom in life, it is good to know that we can wander and experience pains and  54 in life but we still have a home where love, support and comfort  55 .

"Everything happens for the best, "my mother said whenever I faced disappointment, "If you on, something good will happen some day." Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college. I had   2  myself for a sports announcer. So I went to Chicago to knock on the door of every station and was  3 every time. In one station, a kind lady told me that  4 stations wouldn't employ a person without   5   since I had just graduated. "Go out in the town and find a small station that might give you a chance, "she said.
I returned to Dixon, where I had finished my high school education and had   6  in the school football team. My father said that our town had built a store and wanted a man to manage its sports department. The job sounded just  7 for me but I wasn't hired.
My disappointment had  8 as if by design. "Everything happens for the best," Mum  9 me. Dad lent me his car to look for a job. I tried WOC Radio Davenport. The program director told me they had already hired an announcer.  10 I left his office,! asked aloud,"  11 can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if he can't get a job in a radio station?" Suddenly, I heard the director  12  . "Do you know anything about football? " Then he asked me to  13 an imaginary game. It was easy, and I did it without difficulty. The director was  14 and told me I would be broadcasting a game on the   15   Saturday.

Years ago I had the opportunity to meet a girl who reinforced my understanding of the power of belief. She was   36  the most powerful person I had ever met. I met Chris for the first time while taking the Dale Carnegie   37  in California.
Our class had already been going for quite some time when   38 , supported by metal crutches(拐杖),   39   herself in. Chris had cerebral palsy(大脑性麻痹). She had many   40  in communicating with others. This was not due to   41  of desire, but because most of her twenty-one years of life she had been kept in a room with no more than Elvis records and tapes to   42  her. No one had taken the time to assist her in developing the ability to   43 . It was Bonnie, her current caretaker, who   44  there was much more to Chris than anyone else gave her credit for.
When asked by the instructor what her goal   45  the twelve-week course was, Chris struggled to respond and became frustrated and   46  in the process. For most of her   47 nobody would listen to her. The only way she knew to get someone to   48  was through temper outbursts. With Bonnie as her interpreter, Chris conveyed that her   49  was to be able to stand by herself in front of forty-five people and tell us about herself.
On the twelfth week, Chris stood in front of the room and   50  with us, in her own words, what her life had been like. It was one of the most beautiful and enlightening experiences I had ever   51 . Though as a girl who had in many ways been   52 , she believed that she could __53__ more in her life and she did. And she also had the love and support of forty-five friends, who, just weeks before, had been   54  strangers.
What we all witnessed through Chris’ courage is that life is   55  moment by moment, based on our beliefs, which are relevant to both our personal and professional direction and have the power to make our wildest dreams come true.

Eleven-year-old Angela was attacked by a rare   21  affecting her nerve system. She was unable to walk and her movement was    22  in other ways as well. The doctors did not hold much    23   of her ever recovering from this illness. They    24  she'd spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair.They said that few, if any, were able to come back to    25 after suffering from this disease .The little girl was   26 . There, lying in her hospital bed, she would swear that she was   27  going to be walking again one day.
She was moved to a specialized    28 hospital in the San Francisco Bay area. All   29  that could be applied to her case were used. The doctors were moved by her undefeatable spirit. They taught her about imaging about seeing herself walking. If it would do   30 else, it would at least give her hope and something   31 to do in the long waking hours in her bed. Angela would work as hard as possible in physical treatments, and in exercise sessions. But she worked just as hard lying there faithfully doing her   32  , visualizing herself moving, moving, moving!
One day,   33 she was attempting, with all her might, to imagine her legs moving again, it seemed as though something  34  happened: the bed moved! It began to move around the room! She    35 out, "Look what I'm doing! Look! Look! I can do it”. I moved! I moved!"
Of course, at this very moment everyone else in the hospital was screaming, too, and running to a   36 place. People were screaming, equipment was  37 and glass was breaking. You see, it was the terrible San Francisco earthquake.  38 don't tell that to Angela. She    39  that she did it.
And now only a few years later, she's back in school, on her own   40  . No crutches, no wheelchair. You see, anyone who can shake the earth between San Francisco and Oakland can defeat a little disease, can't they?

My l4-year-old son, John, and I spotted the coat which was hanging at a secondhand clothing store in Northampton Mass. While the other coats drooped, this one looked as if it were   36  itself up. The coat had beautiful tailoring, a Fifth Avenue label and a(an)  37  price of $28, which was popular just then with   38  , but could cost several hundred dollars new. This coat was even better, bearing that   39  of classic elegance. John tried it on and the fit was perfect.
John   40  the coat to school the next day and came home wearing a big smile "Did the kids like your coat?" I asked. "They loved it," he said,   41  folding it over the back of a chair and smoothing it flat. Over the next few weeks, a   42  came over John. Agreement replaced contrariness and reasoned discussion replaced fierce   43 . He became more mannerly and   44 , eager to please. He would generously loan his younger brother his tapes and lecture him   45  his behavior.
When I mentioned this incident to his teacher and   46  what caused the changes, she said laughing. "It   47  be his coat!" Another teacher told him she was giving him a good   48  not only because he had earned   49  but because she liked his coat. At the library, we ran into a friend “Could this be John?" he asked surprisingly,   50  John's new height, assessing the cut of his coat and extending his hand, one gentleman to another.
John and I both know we should never   51  a person's clothes for the real person within them.   52  there is something to be said for wearing a standard of excellence for the world to see and for   53  what is on the inside to what is on the outside.
For John it is a time when it is as easy to try on different approaches to   54  as it is to try on a coat. The whole world, the whole future is stretched out ahead, a vast landscape   55  all the doors are open. And he could picture himself walking through those doors wearing his wonderful, magical coat.
