"See?"Anita said."I told you he'd succeed."
"Yeah,"I said."But how many knocks on the head did it(54)Ahim?"
I've thought about that little sparrow through the years.Just like that sparrow,we often meet situations,we don't know how to(55)B.Born to go upward,we don't even consider the possibility that something good might happen if we stop flapping(拍打)around and just glide down a little bit.
