Mark Gibson is a former gymnastics coach who once worked with many excellent athletes. He often tells a wonderful story about a 15-year-old 　16 girl, Cindy, whose attitude brought out the best in everyone.

Cindy wasn’t a great 　17 , but when she was in the gym, everyone complained less, worked harder, and, not 　18 , achieved more. Cindy was such a powerful motivator 　19 she could see nothing. When it was her turn to do the vault（跳马）, mother would also 　20 alongside her, and tell her how close she was to the vault. When her mom said, “Vault!”, Cindy would reach out and jump, 　21 her mother and herself.

Cindy loved the sport and kept 　22 because she and her mom refused to be defeated by her 　23 . Mark called her the most 　24 member of the team, not because of her 　25 ability, but because of her heart and because she 　26 a standard of perseverance(坚持) and courage that inspired others to get more out of themselves. Everyone who 　27 her work hard to be the best 28 how much more they could get out of themselves.

This is leadership---leadership by 　29 . And we see this sort of leadership not only in 　30 but also in families and in the workplace. Often the most important members of the team are not the 　31 , most skilled, or most powerful. Instead, their 　32 is in their attitude and their ability to inspire and 　33 others with their optimism, enthusiasm, and determination.

People who know how to get the best out of themselves get the best of others.

There’s no doubt that Cindy’s 　34 has a great effect on her teammates. A person’s personality matters most because it comes from within and does not depend on 　35 alone.

‘Long time no see’ is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence from an American friend’s E-mail, I 　36 . I thought it was a classic example of Chinglish.

　 Obviously, it is a word-to-word 　37 translation of the Chinese greetings with a ruined English structure and grammar! Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting. I had too many 　38 to believe her. Her words were not convincing enough. So I did a 　39 on google.com. To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages 　40 ‘Long time no see’. This sentence has been 　41 used in E-mails, letters, newspapers, movies, books or any other possible place. Though it is 　42 informal, it is part of the language Americans use daily. Ironically(讽刺地说), if you type this sentence in Microsoft Word, the 　43 will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.

　 Nobody knows the 　44 of this Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies. In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully 　45 a world wide famous Chinese detective named ‘Charlie Chan’ on wide screens. Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom 　46 using what Confucius said. ‘Long time no see’ was his trademark. 　47 Charlie Chan, ‘Long time no see’ became a popular phrase in the real world thanks to the popularity of the movies.

　 Some people 　48 America to a huge melting pot（大熔炉）. All kinds of culture are 　49 in the pot together, and then change the color and taste of each other. American Chinese though a minority ethnic group in the United States, has also contributed some changes to the stew（大杂烩）! Language is usually the first thing to be 　50 in the mixed pot.
