阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  When I was 23 years old I was in a dangerous relationship with the man who was my fiancé(未婚夫)at the time.I was being physically and verbally abused on a daily basis.I was financially tied to him after he spent all my savings to pay his debts but I wanted to be free!

  For the longest time I was too embarrassed to tell my mother about the situation.She had warned me about him.But, eventually, I worked up the courage to tell her and she sent me the money I needed to leave.Before the money arrived, he found out what I planned to do.I was so scared of what he might do that I decided to leave without taking all my belongings and just get out of there.

  Then, on my way to safety, my car died! I had automobile insurance(thanks to my mom)so I called the AAA and had them pull the car to a garage.It turned out the repair was going to cost $800 and the money my mom sent hadn't arrived by that point.

  The owner of the garage must have known something was up because he asked what was wrong.I told him a brief version of my story and promised him I could pay him in two days.He never told me his name but I will never forget him or what he did for me that day! He said he had a daughter almost my age and hoed that if she ever needed help in the future then some stranger might do the same for her.

  Since then I have tried to help people in my own way.Now I have a beautiful 12-year-old daughter and I hope throughout her life she can help others and be helped when she needs it, like I was!

  Another person's enthusiasm was what set me moving toward the success I have achieved.That person was my stepmother.

  I was nine years old when she entered our home in rural Virginia.My father   1   me to her with these words:“I would like you to meet the fellow who is   2   for being the worst boy in this county and will probably start throwing rocks at you no   3   than tomorrow morning.”

  My stepmother walked over to me,   4   my head slightly upward, and looked me right in the eye.Then she looked at my father and replied, “You are   5  .This is not the worst boy at all,   6   the smartest one who hasn't yet found an outlet(释放的途径)for his enthusiasm.”

  That statement began a(n)  7   between us.No one had ever called me smart.My family and neighbors had built me up in my   8   as a bad boy.My stepmother changed all that.

  She changed many things.She   9   my father to go to a dental(牙科)school, from which he graduated with honors.She moved our family into the county seat, where my father's career could be more   10   and my brother and I could be better   11  

  When I turned fourteen, she bought me a secondhand   12   and told me that she believed that I could become a writer.I knew her enthusiasm, I   13   it had already improved our lives.I accepted her   14   and began to write for local newspapers.I was doing the same kind of   15   that great day I went to interview Andrew Carnegie and received the task which became my life's work later.I wasn't the   16   beneficiary(受益者).My father became the   17   man in town.My brother and stepbrothers became a physician, a dentist, a lawyer, and a college president.

  What power   18   has!When that power is released to support the certainty of one's purpose and is   19   strengthened by faith, it becomes an irresistible(不可抗拒的)force which poverty and temporary defeat can never   20  

  You can communicate that power to anyone who needs it.This is probably the greatest work you can do with your enthusiasm.
