One day an old man went into a cafeteria (自助餐厅) to eat in America for the first time. He sat down at an empty table and waited for   43  to take his order. Of course nobody did. Finally, a woman with a plate full of food sat down opposite him and told him how a cafeteria   44 .
“Start out at that end,” she said. “Just go along the line and   45  what you want. At the other end they’ll tell you how much you have to pay.”
“I soon learned that’s how everything works in the US,” the old man later told a friend. “ 46  is a cafeteria here. You can get anything you want   47  you are willing(自愿的) to pay the price. You can even get success, but you’ll never get it if you wait for someone to   48  it to you. You have to get up and get it yourself.”   
49 , life everywhere is like a cafeteria. Don’t wait for things to happen to you. Success lies in your own   50 .

The question was once asked of a highly successful businessman,“How have you done so much in your lifetime?”
He replied,“I have   41 .I have turned my mind free to imagine   42  I wanted to do.Then I have gone to bed and thought about my dreams.In the night I dreamt about my dreams.
And when I awoke in the morning,I saw the way   43  my dreams real.White   44  people were saying,‘You can’t do that,it is   45 ,’I was well on my way to achieving what I wanted,”As Woodrow Wilson,28th President of the U.S.,said:“We grow great by dreams.All big men are
  46 .”
They see things in the soft fog of a spring day,or in the red fire   47  a long winter’s evening.Some of us   48  these dreams die,but others feed,protect and look after them;keep them through bad days until they bring them to the sunshine and light,it comes   49  to the people who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.
So please,don’t let anyone steal you dreams,  50  try to tell you they are too impossible.
“Sing your songs,dream your dreams,and hope your hope.”

When I was about 12 years old, I really wanted a new bike! I __36__ my parents my birthday wish, but I knew there was little hope because my family could __37__ have that money.
On my birthday my parents told me they had my __38__ outside in the back yard. At once I __39__ out to the yard. There was my bike, __40__ it wasn’t the bike that I thought it would be. This one was pink, old and worn with age. It was so __41__! I thought I __42__ my parents’ feelings because I could see the disappointment __43__ their faces and I was sure they could see it on mine. I __44__ the old bike and rode it, feeling __45__ that I had made my parents feel this way. So I put on a smile, rode as fast as I could and didn’t __46__...
As time went by, I began to understand my parents gave me __47__ much more than just a rusty（生锈的）old bike. They gave me a life lesson about __48__. When you give something out of love, it doesn’t matter what it is in fact. What matters is the love that is in it. I like to remember this __49__ because giving a gift is not about money. It’s about how much love you can feel from it. Do remember, a gift that __50__ two dollars isn’t any less valuable（有价值的）than one that costs one hundred dollars, or even more.

Different things usually stand for different feelings. Red, for example, is the color of fire, heat, blood and life. People say red is an exciting and active color. They associate（使发生联系） red with a strong feeling like   46 . Red is used for signs of   47 , such as STOP signs and fire engines. Orange is the bright, warm color of   48  in autumn. People say orange is a   49  color. They associate orange with happiness. Yellow is the color of __50__. People say it is a cheerful color. They associate yellow too, with happiness. Green is the cool color of grass in __51__. People say it is a refreshing color. In general, people __52__ two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. The warm colors are red, orange and __53__. Where there are warm color and a lot of light, people usually want to be __54__. Those who like to be with __55 _ like red. The cool colors are __56_  and blue. Where are these colors, people are usually worried. Some scientists say that time seems to __57 _ more slowly in a room with warm colors. They suggest that a warm color is a good __58_  for a living room or a __59_ . People who are having a rest or are eating do not want time to pass quickly. __60  colors are better for some offices if the people working there want time to pass quickly.
