It was just getting dark; there was a touch of fog and I was on a lonely stretch of road. But I was going along cheerfully, thinking about the dinner I would eat when I    1   to Salisbury.

I was going along   2   at about thirty-five miles an hour when suddenly I heard a scream, a woman¡¯s scream¡ª¡°  3  !¡±I looked round, but the only   4  of life was a large, black, rather suspicious-looking car just   5  a bend in the road about a hundred yards   6  .That was   7  the cry had come from. I   8   speed and went after it. I think the driver saw what I was doing,  9   he did the same and began to draw away from me. As I drew near, the girl¡¯s voice came again, a lovely voice but   10   with fear.

¡°Let me go,  11   fool; you¡¯re hurting me. Oh! Oh!¡±

I felt my blood   12  . The fog was coming down thicker now; the countryside was lonelier. The man in the car had no   13   noticed this. Again came a cry.

¡°Drop the knife, fool. Oh!¡±Then a cry and a groan.

If I was to save her, it was now or   14  . Perhaps even now I was too late. But if I couldn¡¯t save the girl, I would   15   try to bring the murderer to the police station. The car was only a couple of yards away now. I drove the bike right across its   16  , and its brakes screamed as the driver tried to pull it over and crashed into the ditch on the side of the road. The door of the car was pushed open angrily and a dark, evil-looking fellow stepped out, mad with anger.

¡°Fool!¡±he shouted   17   he came towards me with his fist raised to hit me. But I was quicker than he. I put all I knew into   18   that would have knocked out Joe Louis. It caught him right on the ground without a   19  .I rushed to the car,  20   open the door and peered inside. There was no girl there. Suddenly from the back of the car came a voice.

I had a friend who visited me from out of town and I wanted to show him the CN Tower. It was one of the tallest structures on the earth. So I thought it would offer a(n)¡¡ 36¡¡ sight.

We were standing in line for 45minutes to enjoy the ¡¡ 37¡¡ up to the watch point. When we got there, we went around the ¡¡38¡¡ of the tower and saw the hard wire fence 39¡¡¡¡ to the structure serving as a barrier. We went back inside to look for the glass floor that provided a direct view ¡¡40¡¡ . As soon as both of us 41¡¡ , we stopped before walking onto it. We found that our legs began to¡¡ 42¡¡ . I stopped for a minute considering the step, taking several seconds to ¡¡43¡¡ the edge before moving.

And then I had a thought in my mind£º¡°It is far ¡¡44¡¡ compared to any other floor in this building. There is no real danger to me ¡ª it¡¯s ¡¡ 45¡¡ an illusion. Look at all the people standing on it, and think about those who have stood on it before.¡±I began to 46¡¡ that step onto the glass floor. I didn¡¯t look down ¡ª 47¡¡ not for a few minutes.

I walked on the ¡¡ 48¡¡ and looked around and thought about how¡¡ 49¡¡ the experience was. I even found myself jumping up and down. There was no 50¡¡ , and it was certainly an illusion.

I considered how many things in our lives we 51¡¡ and exactly how many of them are actually illusions. I thought about all the things we ¡¡52¡¡ ourselves from doing because we have¡¡ 53¡¡ ourselves into thinking there¡¯s risk. I thought about all the things that I still have yet to do that appeared 54¡¡ . I was glad to discover that although fear isn¡¯t a stranger to me, my desire to live a life without ¡¡ 55¡¡ has a much stronger pull.
