1.A Disaster Makes a Strong PersonI lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight(货物)yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head.Now I am thirty-two.I can still (36)A the brightness of sunshine.It would be (37)B to see again,but a (38)C can do strange things to people.I don't mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes.I simply mean that the (39)C of them made me (40)D the more what I had.

All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then tried to reach them,one at a time.I had to be clear about my (53)B.It was no good trying for something that I knew at the start was wildly out of reach (54)C that only invited the bitterness of failure.I would (55)Asometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.
