3.For long,a little boy was wondering why his deskmate could rank 1st in the class whenever he wanted to,while he himself failed to:he only ranked 21st.
At home,he asked his Mom,"Mom,am I more (36)C than others?I feel I am as obedient and as careful as him,but (37)B I always fall behind?"Hearing the words,Mom was aware that her son began to (38)B the sense of self-respect,which was now being injured by the ranking system. (39)C at him,she went wordless,not knowing (40)D to explain.

Now,the son no longer worries about his (49)D,and there are no boring guys who would inquire his grades in primary school,because,(50)C the 1st ranking,he is admitted to Tsinghua University.Back home in winter vacation,he was invited to (51)C the students and parents in his high school.In the speech,he mentioned a valuable experience in his childhood,"…When my mother and I were lying on the(52)D,she pointed to the front and said,‘Do you see the seabirds struggling for food over there?When the waves come near,little birds can rise (53)A while awkward seagulls would take more time to complete the process.However,have you noticed birds that finally fly (54)C the endless ocean are none other than awkward seagulls?'"The speech (55)B many mothers present to tears,including his mother.
