Question

My life suffered a lot in a summer five years ago. My father died in an accident and left my mother, my two younger brothers and I. As the eldest son in my family, I had no choice but      16      school and work in a factory.

Life was still very hard      17     I worked day and night without stopping. Later on, something changed my life. I still remember that it was a rainy day. I walked in the rain. Suddenly the rain stopped! I raised my head and found "     18     " was in fact a dark blue umbrella. A middle-aged man with one leg was standing behind me. He asked, "Why not run without an umbrella?      19     you run, you would not get so wet." While      20 together in the rain, the man told me that he once      21      being a policeman, but an accident ruined (毀滅)his dream. Later he became a salesman. Although the job was not suitable for his     22    , he was very happy that he didn't

23 and still "ran" on the road of life ...I was encouraged by his words. I went to a big city and got another job. After two years' running, I did well and my life became      24     little by little.

Life is like this: when you run out of the      25      season of your life, there will be bright sky ahead of you.
