What happened to that brilliant idea that you once had? Did you   36 it because you thought that it was just a little thought? Have you ever   37 what that little thought would have become if you had acted on your instincts (直覺)   38 if you had paid more attention to it?

Imagine a scene,   39 you are sitting at home watching television or reading a book, suddenly a light is   40 on in the dark tunnel of your mind as a thought or an idea crosses your mind. The thought   41 your attention but seems so meaningless and you are tempted to   42 it, but wait a minute! That thought could be the potential beginning of the   43 you have so mush wished for.

As the thought crosses your mind, your senses become alert and you suddenly see a possibility, a solution, or find the answer to a problem whose solution has   44 escaped you. It is almost as if a wise man has   45 the perfect solution into your ear or awakened your senses to a reality, thereby bringing light to your life. It is like finding the   46 piece of jigsaw puzzle (拼圖游戲). This becomes an amazing moment and everything freezes around you as you excitedly try to grasp the practicality of that   47 but powerful thought.

Your self-confidence and enthusiasm increase as you become   48 of the great possibilities that can   49 if that little thought is acted upon. This becomes the moment to build upon that thought and to put   50   any ideas that are streaming from that little thought for later review.  51 meaningless little thought or ideas when acted 52 have a potential to explode into great projects. Many successful projects have been 53 from the little positive thoughts that were carefully protected and recognized as bricks to great things.

Don't waste a(n)   54 to act on a potentially brilliant idea. You don't have to wait for a major idea, or approval from your peers in order for you to act on that little thought.

That little thought or idea is the   55   of great things if you decide to follow it through.

Stuck on a desert island?

Started on 23rd April by Steve                   Posts 1 – 7 of 42

Post 1

Steve

USA

Hi, everyone. What would you miss most and least if you were stuck on a desert island? For me, it would be the changing seasons in New England. I guess this will sound stupid but I’d probably miss the rain, too. I wouldn’t miss getting up at six every day to go to work, though! What about you?

Post 2

Tomas

Germany

Good question. Steve, I think I’d miss different types of bread, and shopping at the supermarket. I’d miss the food most. What would I miss least? My mobile phone---I’d like to be completely quiet --- at least for a little while

Post 3

Paola

Italy

I would miss the company of people because I know I’d like to have someone to share experiences with. I’d go mad on my own. And I sure wouldn’t miss junk mail(垃圾郵件) --- I hate coming home every evening and a pile of junk mail in my post box.

Post 4

Miko

Japan

Hi, I would miss Manga cartoon, the internet and Japanese food, like sushi. I’d also miss TV shows and shopping for clothes… In fact, I’d miss everything.

Post 5

Roger

UK

I would miss my daily newspaper and listening to the news on TV and radio. I’d feel very cut off if I didn’t know what was happening in the world. What I’d miss least would be traffic jams in the city, particularly my journey to work.

Post 6

Jayne

Why hasn’t anyone mentioned their family? I’d be lost without my husband and two kids. They’re the most important for me. And I can’t get started in the morning without a cup of black coffee. I wouldn’t miss doing the housework! 

Post 7

Jaime

Mexico

It would have to be music. I couldn’t live without my music. I wouldn’t miss going to school at all or doing homework!

A. Jaime       B. Jayne         C. Miko          D. Paola.

I was in a strange city and I didn't know the city at all, and what is more, I could not speak a word of the language. After having spent my first day in the town-centre, I decided to lose my way on my second day, since I believed that this was the simplest way of getting to know the strange city.

I got on the first bus that passed, rode on it for several stops, then got off it and walked on. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough. Then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived and even then I pronounced it badly.

I stopped to ask a friendly-looking newspaper-seller. He smiled and handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money and went on my way. The next person I asked was a policeman. The policeman listened to me carefully, smiled and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again. I thanked him politely and began walking in the direction he pointed.

About an hour passed and I noticed that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and green fields were appearing on either side of me. I had come all the way into the countryside.

The only thing left for me to do was to find the nearest railway station.

The writer believed that if you wanted to get to know a strange city, ______.

A. you should go everywhere on foot          B. you should have a map

C. you should ask people the way                       D. you should get lost

The newspaper-seller ______.

A. could understand what he said         B. didn't know what he said

C. laughed at him                       D. didn't want to take the money

The writer's real trouble was that _______.

A. he couldn't speak the language

B. he followed the policeman's direction

C. he took the wrong bus                   D. he left the town-centre

The policeman ______.

A. didn't help him                                             B. pointed at him

C. didn't understand what he really meant  D. didn't know the way
