I keep a two-dollar bill (纸币) in my wallet. My mother gave it to me when I was six years old.The bill goes with me wherever I go because I believe luck would    1    me everywhere.

Whenever I felt there was a trouble, I would reach my two-dollar bill and put it on the table,I would watch it for several hours and could always come up with    2    .

When I began to look for my first job, I was thirty years old and very    3   .The thought of being interviewed for a job was scary but I had to work.Mrs. Martin, the office manager, asked me some questions and the interview was over.As I got    4    her office, I said, "Mrs. Martin, I know that I am not the best applicants (申请者), but please give me a chance.I learn quickly and can be a very able member of your team."

That evening I received a phone call from Mrs. Martin."Gina," she said."You were not the best applicant, but you have so much confidence in yourself that we have    5   to give you a chance." "Thank you so much, Mrs. Martin!" I said.I was so excited that I forgot to say   36  to Mrs. Martin.

I took out my two-dollar bill."Thanks, Mom.I am going to    7    it, "I said out loud so my mother could hear me.

At that moment, I remember the time she pulled all of us into the living room and said, "You are all clever in my    8    , but if you fail once, don't give up.You will be successful." I still think of Mom every day and keep my two-dollar bill in my wallet. At a family reunion (团聚) years later, I found that my brothers and sisters    9    had two-dollar bills in their wallets.We laughed and talked about how    10    this gift from Mom had been to each of us.
