All the World Asks
On my first day in a college classroom, I felt like an overgrown child returning to civilization after having been lost in the forest for thirty years. There I sat,  21  enough to be a father to most of the students in the room,   22   unconfident enough to be their baby brother. We were crowded elbow (肘部) to elbow, listening to a  23  who looked even younger than the students. I felt uncomfortable and out of place as the professor carefully    24  what she expected us to learn. As I listened, I couldn't help but  25  of my own oldest daughter who was now beginning her first year in    26  , just like me. I remembered how hard I had tried to help build self-confidence in her and my other children. So why did I suddenly feel like a scared   27  myself'? When I walked out of that classroom, I had serious    28   about my ability to make it   29  college. Not until late that night did my thinking   30    .It was a long-distance  31   from my daughter, my fellow college freshman, that did the trick. She spoke on the phone about the doubts, worries and anxieties she was   32 . She was certain that she'd never   33  at college. How   34   her worries sounded! In my most confident parental   35  , I said, “Doing your best is all the world   36  .” The next day in class, those words still repeated in my head. When the professor raised a   37   for the class, nobody, including me,    38  to answer. When I looked around al the   39   and uncertainty on the young faces in that room, I knew   40  what I had to do: my best. That's all the world asks. So I raised my hand, and the professor called my name. I spoke.
