The other evening we had a knock at the door. It was a new ____who introduced himself and his boys to us. He also ____us to a block party as a way to know the people in the neighborhood as well as celebrate his family ’s coming to live here.

We've lived here almost six years and ____has ever come to introduce themselves. I suppose we should have introduced ourselves to people moving in，but we haven't. In my opinion, it took the initiative (首創(chuàng)) of a young man and his sons to show me how I could ____better attention to my own community. I have many local friends but I have to say that I haven't usually been the one to develop the ____in my own neighborhood.

This experience ____me of one of my favorite sayings : “When I was a young man, I wanted to change the world. I found it was ____to change the world, so I tried to change my nation. When I found I couldn't change the nation, I began to focus on(集中精力) my town. I couldn't change the town and as an older man, I tried to change my ____. Now, as an old man, I realize the only thing I can change is myself, and ____I realize that if long ago I had changed myself, I could have made an influence on my family and even on my town. The influence could have changed the nation and I could have changed the world.”

For those of us who want to make a(n) ____in the world, it's important we remember what Bucky Fuller said, “Think globally(全球的), but act locally” For me, I'm going to make it a point to meet more of my neighbors---starting now.
