  Since the pre-historic times, man has had an urge to satisfy his needs.Be it hunger, shelter or search for a mate, he has always manipulated the circumstances to the best of his advantages.Probably this might be the reason why we human are the most developed of all living species on the earth, and probably also in the universe.As we climbed the steps of evolution with giant leaps, we somehow left behind common sense and logical thinking-we   1   that we have stopped thinking ahead of times.

  If you are hungry, what do you do? Grab a piece of your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? Just like your stomach, even your mind is hungry.But it   2   lets you know, because you keep it   3   thinking about your dream lover, favorite star and many   4   not-so-worthy things.So it silently begins to focus on your needs and never let ? 40 ?grow.When mind looses its   6   to grow, creativity gets a full stop.This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “What happens next? ”“Why can’t I think? ”“Why am I always given the difficult problems?” Well this is the aftermath of our own karma of using our brain for thinking of not-so-worthy things.

  Hunger of the mind can be actually satisfied   7   a lot of reading.Now why reading and not watching TV?   8   reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from the childhood.Just like that to   9   other aspects of our life, we have to take help of reading.You have innumerable number of books in this world which   10   answer all your “How to? ” questions.Once you read a book, you just don’t   11   your eyes through the lines, but even your mind decodes(译解)it and   12   it to you.The interesting part of the book is   13   in your mind as a seed.Now this seed is unknowingly used by you in your future to develop new   14  .The same seed if   15   many times, can help you link and relate a lot of things,   16   which you would have never thought in your wildest dreams! This is nothing but creativity.More the number of books you read, your mind will   17   like never before.Also this improves your speaking skills to a large extent and also makes a significant contribution   18   your vocabulary.Within no   19   you start speaking English or any language fluently with your friends or other people and you never seem to run out of the right words at the right time.

  Actually, I had a problem in speaking English fluently, but as I read, I could improve significantly.

  I am still on the path of improvement to stop myself from   20   thirsty for satisfaction.So guys do join me and give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading.Now what are you waiting for? Go, grab a book, and let me know!

Run Away, Don’t Delay

  One night, my son was watching his big screen TV alone, and I decided to join him.He was watching a show   1   there were college students going to a get-together in Washington DC, and   2   the thousands who gathered there to celebrate something.When they got there, they started becoming   3   in drinking, and doing drugs.I didn’t want to watch it any more, so got up and went to bed.

  About 3∶30A.m.I awoke, and lay there   4   the program, and a poem began forming in my mind, which began as,“  5   sin(something wrong)comes calling, or knocking at your door, run away, don’t delay,   6   sin is like a magnet, and it will pull you down, run away, do not   7  .”As I lay there, there was music which   8   it, and I knew that there was no way I would remember it by   9  , so I got up and sat at the table, trying to   10   both the words and the music which came to me at the time.  11   the pattern was set, and I had the notes written down in my notebook, the   12   of the poem came to me as well.

  When it got   13   I decided to sit down at the piano and began trying to play it.My family came into the sitting room and I told them about the song, and wanted to   14   it with them.They all liked it, and   15   several times that day, I sang it again, and played it again, trying to fix it in my   16  

  Later, I wanted to put the song on paper   17   just the little dots in my notebook indicating how high and how   18   to go.Not knowing how to do that, I   19   the song, and then sent it to my sister, Jennie, who had written many songs using her own poetry and music, and soon, here came the music and words all done up   20  .I was so glad.

完形填空

  I had three jobs growing up in Salem, Mass., and they all helped shape my life.When I was about 12, I started carrying bags for golfers at a nearby club.All the kids in the neighborhood did it, and I liked it a lot.I got to   1  people who were generally pretty   2   businessmen and doctors-talk about deals, and see how they   3  with each other.It was like being a fly on the wall at a meeting.

  I got another job at Parker Brothers games,   4   small holes in pieces of cork(软木塞)for a game called Dig.I liked Parker, but not the job.It lasted about a month, and I   5   that I never wanted to do anything like that again, ever.

  The third job was at a Thom McAn shoe store.I   6   met people from all   7  of life, and the challenge was exciting.I'd start   8  them different kinds of shoes and get right down there and put them on their feet.  9   they didn't like a certain shoe, I always tried to be thinking ahead to a pair they might like   10  

  This job helped teach me an important   11   lesson:it's all about   12  the sale.I never wanted to let a   13   get out of that store without buying a pair of shoes.It was like stepping up to the plate in a   14  game.  15   someone walked into that store, I was going to bat and taking a   16  .I'd get a seven-cent commission(酬金)for every pair I   17  , 25 cents for the slow   18  , such as those that were out of stock(脱销)or of an odd color.

  Today I believe that the worst sin(罪孽)in running a big company is to manage its size rather than use that size.The   19  of size is the resources it gives you to go to bat often.You have to take risks in business.If you take a risk and fail,   20   to bat and swing again.
