Have you seen big dogs in stores or restaurants and wondered why they were there? Those dogs might have been guide dogs.
People who are blind sometimes use guide dogs called seeing-eyes dogs. These special dogs help people get around. They help them do everyday things. Some people who have hearing problems have hearing-ear dogs. These dogs tell their owners when an alarm clock goes off or when the doorbell rings.
Guide dogs learn to wear something on their backs called a harness. Their owner holds onto it. The dogs learn what words such as “left” and “right” mean. They learn to never take their owner into traffic.
Each guide dog trains for months. Then, it spends one month working with its future owner. At that time ,the owner and dog get to know one another and train together!
Because guide dogs are trained, they are welcome almost anywhere. So, the next time you are out, don’t be surprised if you see a dog. It might just be a guide dog!

阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。

（1）Our character, basically, is a mixture of our habits. “Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit;________, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny （命运）,” the maxim goes.
  （2）Habits are powerful factors in our lives. Because they are  often unconscious patterns, they constantly daily affect our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness.
  （3）As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, “Habits are like a cable. We weave a rope of it everyday and soon it cannot be broken.” I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression. I know habits can be learned and unlearned. But we also know it isn’t a quick fix. It involves a process and a tremendous effort.
  （4）Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were shocked as we saw the first men walk on the moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half million miles.
 （5）Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull- more than most people realize or would admit. Breaking deeply developed habitual tendencies such as procrastination(拖延) , impatience, criticalness, or selfishness that go against basic principles of human effectiveness involves more than a little willpower and a few minor changes in our lives. “Lift off” takes a tremendous effort, but once we break out of the gravity pull, our freedom takes on a whole new situation.
　（6）Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go. But it is also gravity pull that keeps our world together, that keeps the planets in their orbits and our universe in order. It is a powerful force, and if we use it effectively, we can use the gravity pull of habit to create the order necessary to establish effectiveness in our lives.
