 I don't often lose things and I'm especially careful with money, so I am quite surprised when I reached for my      1  and it wasn't there. At first I thought it was    2  that I could have    3  it at home. Then I remembered taking it out to    4  the taxi, so I knew I    5  it with me just before I walked into the restaurant. I wondered    6  it was possible that it could have slipped out of my pocket while I was    7  dinner. Thinking about that    8  , I turned and walked back to the table    9  I had been sitting.      10  , there were several people sitting at the table at the time, so I called the    11  and explained to him that my wallet had    12  out of my pocket while I was sitting at that table a few minutes    13  . I had the waiter go    14  to the table to    15  if my wallet was on the    16  . While the waiter was looking    17  it, the manager of the restaurant came up to me and asked me if anything was    18  . I didn't want to get a lot of people involved (壌秘) in the    19  , but I knew I had to get the wallet    20  . I told the manager what had happened. He had me describe (宙峰) the wallet to him, and then he insisted that I should report the    21  wallet to the police. I told him that I didn't want to get the police involved in it;    22  , I was in a hurry    23  I had an appointment (埃氏) with my doctor in a few hours. I explained to him that my biggest worry at the moment was how I was going to pay my check. He told me not to    24  about that. He had me write down my name and    25  , and he said he would send me a bill.

We have so many first days in our lives. First days are milestones(戦殻窺) in our lives. They 36 the beginning of a new experience or journey and they are also filled with  37  feelings. They can be a little frightening as we step into the unknown, but they can also inspire us as they give us fresh  38 for the future.

I want to share a 39 that perfectly shows this point. Trisha was told that 40 is the key to knowledge. She watched her older brother 41 he read his schoolbooks and could hardly 42 the day when she would learn to read.

But after Trisha 43 started school, she found that she was not able to understand words like the other boys and girls. However hard she 44 , she saw only confusion. Trisha 45 , the teacher and the other children laughing at her, and she began to believe that she was not  46 .

By the time Trisha entered the fifth grade, she had lost the 47 in herself. That was the year when she met Mr. Falker. He was 48 . He praised Trisha¨s talents, and he wouldn¨t tolerate the other children laughing at her. After some time, Mr. Falker 49 that Trisha didn¨t know how to read, but he knew she could 50 some help.

He found an expert, and together they 51 with Trisha after school. They 52 her to understand words  53 one day Mr. Falker handed her a book and she could read it all by herself. She didn¨t even notice the tears in his eyes.

This is a true story. The little girl is Patricia Polacco, a famous 54 , and Thank you Mr. Falker is the twenty-sixth book that she has written. Mr. Falker gave her a fresh new 55 and made a difference in her life.

Once there was a girl called Arachne who was very proud of her skill at weaving. Many people came to see her   1  her threads in red, blue, green or yellow that made her   2         

pictures glow with life. ^The goddess Athene   3   have given you such a gift, ̄ they said. But Arachne tossed her head. ^No, ̄ she replied   4   ^I¨ve taught myself everything I know.  ̄   5 those words, the goddess Athene decided to teach her a lesson. First she    6   herself as an old woman and   7   Arachne¨s door. When she opened it, the goddess warned her, ^You shouldn¨t compare yourself with the great Athene. You should be more   8   . ̄ At that Arachne grew very angry. ^ Let her come here and have a   9  with me. Then we¨ll see who¨s better at weaving!  ̄   10  Athene threw off her disguise and the contest began.

  All day the two contestants wove bright  11  into marvellous pictures. Arachne¨s was definitely   12  in skill and design. At that Athene grew   13  angry that she hit Archne. At once the girl became smaller and smaller. Her head disappeared and her body became   14  . Her human arms and legs disappeared to be replaced with twice as many thinner insect-like  15  . As Arachne ran to hide, Athene laughed   16  ^You may live, Arachne, but you will do your weaving   17  from now on.  ̄ Hearing those words, Archne began to  18  a thread and to weave a pattern in the air. She had become the first  19  . Since then she has continued to recreate her lost   20  beautiful masterpiece in her webs, and all other  spiders have followed her.

We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects (髪��) that can never be changed. ^I¨m impatient. ̄ ^I¨m always behind. ̄ ^I always put things off! ̄ You¨ve surely heard them. Maybe you¨ve used them to describe  11 .

These  12 may come from stories about us that have been  13 for years ! often from as far back as childhood. These stories may have no  14 in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said to me, ^Marshall, you have no mechanical skills, and you will  15 have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life.  ̄ How did these expectations  16 my development? I was never  17 to work on cars or be

18 tools. When I was 18, I took the US Army¨s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!

Six years later,  19 , I was at California University, working on my doctor¨s degree. One of my professors, Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn¨t do. On the positive side, I  20 down, ^research, writing, analysis, and speaking. ̄ On the  21 side, I wrote, ^I have no mechanical skills. ̄

Bob  22 me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life  23 and told him about my poor  24 on the Army test. Bob then asked, ^ 25 is it that you can solve complex mathematical problems, but you can¨t solve  26 mechanical problems? ̄

Suddenly I realized that I wasn¨t  27 from some sort of genetic defects. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to  28 . At that point, it wasn¨t just my family and friends who had been  29 my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn¨t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, ^You can¨t do this! ̄ I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true.  30 , if we don¨t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost anything we choose.
