Another person’s enthusiasm was what set me moving toward the success I have achieved. That person was my stepmother.
I was nine years old when she entered our home in rural Virginia. My father  21 me to her with these words: “I would like you to meet the fellow who is  22 for being the worst boy in this county and will probably start throwing rocks at you no  23 than tomorrow morning.”
My stepmother walked over to me, raised my head slightly  24 , and looked me right in the eye. Then she looked at my father and  25 , “You are wrong. This is not the worst boy at all,  26 the smartest one who hasn’t yet found an outlet(释放的途径)for his enthusiasm.”
That statement began a(n)   27 between us. No one had ever called me smart. My family and neighbors had built me up in my  28 as a bad boy. My stepmother changed all that.
She changed many things. She   29  my father to go to a dental school, from which he graduated with honors. She moved our family into the county seat, where my father’s career could be more  30 and my brothers and I could be better educated.
When I turned fourteen, she bought me a secondhand  31 and told me that she believed that I could become a writer. I knew her enthusiasm, I  32 it, and I saw how it had already improved our lives. I accepted her  33 and began to write for local newspapers. I was doing the same kind of  34 that great day I went to interview Andrew Carnegie and received the task which became my life’s work later. I wasn’t the  35 beneficiary (受益者). My father became the  36 man in town. My brothers and stepbrothers became a physician, a dentist, a lawyer, and a college president.
What power  37 has! When that power is released to support the certainty of one’s purpose and is  38 strengthened by faith, it becomes an irresistible(不可抗拒的)force which poverty and temporary defeat can never  39 .
You can communicate that power to  40 who needs it. This is probably the greatest work you can do with your enthusiasm.

It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.

“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just   1  in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We’ve called for a (n)   2  and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.”

Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was   3 .

The doctor described the accident, which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers. When they   4  the charcoal (木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed (喷洒) too much gasoline (petrol). The flames   5  my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to his head.

But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same   14  standards(标准). Put your imperfections out of your   15  and concentrate (集中) on what you value within yourself, and your beauty will shine through.
