A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was the　 36　 was he found himself unable to ask for help-his mobile phone went out of　 37　 as a result of exhausted battery. Nothing could be done but to　 38　 in cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the　 39　 of the rescue.

It is almost　 40　 that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his　 41　 : “First of all I checked up my　 42　 conditions and found myself not in fatal danger. As there was no　 43　 to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from　 44　 . In this way I dozed(打盹)off. ”

His story put an end to my regret for the　 45　 of an exploration adventure that happened last year. A group of young men　 46　 to explore a mountain cave and got lost. 47　 to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of　 48　 . Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the　 49　 people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the　 50　 of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to　 51　 themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering(闪烁)not far away.

Don’t you think that you can compare it with　 52　 itself? When you meet with obstacles in life and work, you are lost in darkness. 53　 you it’s unclear yet and you needn’t put up struggle　 54　 . It seems to be a negative attitude,　 55　 a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as a great courage in the first place.
