“Imagine you are walking along the road. Suddenly you fall over and all the passers-by burst into laughter. You feel very 1 and think the world is laughing at you . But in fact, five minutes later, they have 2 it ever happened.” The other day when I came across these words in an article, I didn’t agree with the 3 .
The author thinks the best thing to do in this kind of 4 is to pretend nothing has happened, and so avoid 5 trouble.
I admit that we should keep 6 because “Your tears will only remind others of what happened, while your 7 can let them forget it.” But this is far from satisfactory. We should do 8 to make things better.
I used to be a(n) 9 girl and not very good at maths. Our new maths teacher asked me a question and I still remember how I hung my head in 10 when I couldn’t answer it.
“If you don’t know the answer, just tell me.” the teacher said, “If you don’t how can I know 11 you know the answer or not?” All of my classmates burst into laughter. My face turned red but the teacher 12 me to go to the blackboard and 13 what I knew. If I had 14 the words in the article, I would have given up. But I tried my best. And to everyone’s 15 , I succeeded! The teacher smiled and said, “Well done! I 16 you could do it!”
Since then, I have become active in maths as 17 as in other subjects. I used to think doing maths exercises was a waste of time. But now, I know 18 I do can make things better. Everyone is the 19 of his own fate.
If we make mistakes, we should take on an active 20 . Laugh, and the world laughs with you; weep(哭泣), and you weep alone.

A woman renewing her driver’s license at the County Clerk’s office was asked to state her occupation.She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself.
“What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a …”
“Of course I have a job,” said Emily.“I’m a mother.”
“We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation… ‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.
One day I found myself in the same situation.The clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title.“What is your occupation?” she asked.
The words simply popped out.“I’m a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”
The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.
I repeated the title slowly, and then I stared with wonder as my statement was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.
“Might I ask, ” said the clerk with new interest, “Just what you do in this field?”
Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn’t), in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out).Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it).But the job is more challenging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.”
There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.
As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (依托) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants---ages 13, 7, and 3.
Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6 month old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern.
I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”
Motherhood…What a glorious career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.
