　　My earliest memory of this was when we were 　　3　　 to ride our bikes, My dad spent a 　　4　　 day teaching my sisters．It was hard but he 　　5　　．to teach them to ride．Although I could 　　6　　 easily．I couldn't help secretly 　　7　　．It had taken my dad an entire day to teach my sisters and me, their younger brother, only a few hours! 　　8　　 , the competition between my sisters and me began．It has not been an easy 　　9　　 for me, but I continue nonetheless．

　　Since both my sisters go to famous colleges．I feel 　　10　　 to do well in high school so I can attend as famous a coHege as theirs．It seems that I have always 　　11　　 their footsteps．But the reason is Very simple．I want their 　　12　　．I am just as good as they are．

　　As I follow their footsteps．I have 　　13　　 my own path in the process because we are not the same person and we have 　　14　　 interests．They’ve won many awards in marketing while I perform well in sports．Being the 　　15　　 has given me a path to see, but not necessarily follow．

　　A man hired a taxi outside the airfield．The cab had a woolen carpet with 　　1　　 lace edges．On the glass partition that 　　2　　 the driver's seat was a copy of a famous painting．Its windows were all clean．The customer was very much 　　3　　 and said to the driver, “I've never seen a nicer 　　4　　．”“Thank you for your praise．”the driver answered 　　5　　．

　　“The car isn't mine, ”said the driver．“It belongs to the company．I used to be a 　　6　　 of cabs．When they returned, all of them were as 　　7　　 as garbage cans with cigarette butts and rubbish 　　8　　 here and there．On the seats and door-handles could be found something 　　9　　 like peanut sauce or, chewing gum．Why so? I thought if the car itself were very clean the passengers would most 　　10　　 be considerate and refrain from littering．”

　　“So when I got a 　　11　　 to be a taxi-driver, I began 　　12　　 my idea into practice-to tidy and 　　13　　 the car．Now before a new passenger gets on my car, I'd make a cheek and be sure it is in good order．When my car 　　14　　 after a day's work, it always remains 　　15　　．”

　　When doing a thing, one makes efforts and wants to see the result．To change others, one has to make twice the 　　16　　 but get half the result．To change oneself is the other way round-more fruit with less effort．One had better ask oneself why one makes 　　17　　 on others much more than on oneself．　　18　　 you take enough care to do as best you can for other people's sake, your efforts will yield results, If you 　　19　　 the inner world of your own, examine yourself and wipe out the dust and dirt, instead of fixing your eyes on other people, you will find a cheerful 　　20　　 for yourself and create a pleasant environment for others．
