At the age of three, I wasdiscovered to be totally deaf. Having consulted many specialists, my parents made a(n)      that would forever alter my future.      sending me to a special education school for the deaf, they chose an ordinary one for me. All of my schoolmates and teachers there would have      hearing.
I experienced great      throughout my primary school because, in addition to the problems of      with the other students, I also      with most of my school work. I seemed to spend every spare moment doing homework just so I could     .
    for me, Mrs. Jordan, my 5th grade teacher, changed all of that with a simple three-word phrase.
One morning, she asked the class a question. I      her lips and immediately raised my hand. Here was an opportunity to impress the powerful teacher and even my classmates. Although a little afraid when I heard my named called, I felt unusually      because I was sure I had the right answer. I took a deep breath and      answered Mrs. Jordan's question.
Her response      all of us. Mrs. Jordan enthusiastically      her right foot on the floor and turned her right hand around in a full circle      it pointed directly at me. With shining eyes she cried, "THAT'S RIGHT, STEPHEN!"
For the first time in my young life, I was an instant star. My heart burst with     .  Smiling widely, I sat a little taller in my chair. My confidence      like never before. I decided right then and there that I would make a(n)      in this world. No matter how many      I might come across in life, I knew I could overcome them.
The very three-word phrase entirely      my young life. From that day on, my grades and speech improved greatly, my      among my classmates increased, and my viewpoint on life did a complete turnabout.

I was    that I was right and he was wrong—and he was sure that I was wrong and he was right. The    decided to teach us a very important lesson. She    both of us up to the    of the class and    him on one side of her desk and me on   . In the middle of her desk was a large, round object. I could    see that it was black.

I couldn't believe he said the object was white,    it was obviously black! Another    started between my classmate and me, this    about the color of the object.
The teacher told me to go to stand where the boy was standing and told him to come to stand where I had been. We changed   , and now she asked me what the color of the object was. I  answer, "White." It was an object with two    colored sides, and from his side it was white.    from my side was the color black.
My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day: You must    in the other person's shoes and look at the     through their eyes in order to    understand their view.

There is a small shop about 200 meters from where I live that sells groceries, meat and other basic necessities. About 10 years ago, there was a beggar who would go into the shop every day and ask the owner for a    36  . The owner,   37   he would love to help, simply didn’t have any jobs available, so he kept   38   the man’s request.
This situation continued    39   for a few months, until the owner    40    to give the homeless man a job which    41  sweeping outside the shop. Every single day from 5 am, the homeless man was there doing the very    42  he could for the    43  , even though it did earn him some pennies.    44   , the owner saw how good a job the man was doing and gave him a job working    45  a cashier. He was watched closely to make sure that he didn’t    46  any of the money received from the sales. He was still homeless, after all. The homeless man did a/an    47  job as a cashier for over 2 years, and did such a good job that he was promoted to    48   the finances for the whole shop.
To my    49  , this was the arrangement up until 2 years ago, when the owner     50   . In his will, he only had one    51   , to give the whole shop to the now stable, “homeless” man. Now, I could walk into that shop and see him working as hard as   52  , with his own business that is still   53   and active 10 years after getting his job as a sweeper.
From this story, we can probably get the inspiration: work hard and give everything your best effort, even if it isn’t your    54   situation, it very well may turn out to    55  some day in the future.

On a cold winter day, I waited in line to see my hero, Jack Canfield, the author of The Success Principles, who was going to deliver a speech on his new book.
During his talk, Jack   41  his wallet, pulled out a hundred-dollar bill, and said, ‘‘Who wants this?”   42  shot up in the audience; people leaned forward to see whom Jack would   43 . But I jumped up, ran up the   44  to the stage, and grabbed the bill. As I was launching myself in the air,   45 raced through my mind — was I about to be humiliated(羞辱) in front of 800 people? Would they   46  security guards and take me from the stage?    47  my desire for bold (大膽的)action was louder than any   48 voice. As I got the bill from his hand, he said, “That’s it! We can’t wait for the   49  to come to us. We must take    50   to create what we want!’’
After his talk, I   51  to formally meet Jack and boldly asked for his personal e-mail address. Over the next months, I sent him emails   52  my points of view and dreams with him. He kindly e-mailed back lots of encouragement. But my life got busy   53 other things. I stopped e-mailing Jack.
A year later, my dreams had worn away. I thought Jack would inspire me into action, like a giant arrow that would show me the way.
I e-mailed him, and then again — but got no   54 . As I sat down at my computer to 55  my e-mails, I  56  woke up. What was I doing? I was waiting! Now I remembered the crowd, most likely   57  that hundred-dollar bill, while they sat glued to their chairs.
Usually we all have a “Jack” for whom we wait — whether it’s a person, a place or a thing. We   58  believe the gifts of life are just around the corner, and that everything will come in a(n)   59  way. So we don’t try. We  60 . But as Wayne Gretzky said,“You’ll always miss 100% of the opportunities you don’t take!” So I stopped waiting and started my writing career.
Now what are you waiting for?

The other day I was talking to a stranger on the bus; he told me that he had a good   36  in Chicago and he wondered if, by any chance, I   37  to know him . For a moment, I thought he might be   38  ,but I could tell from the expression on his face that he was not. He was   39 . I felt like saying that it was ridiculous (可笑的) to   40  that out of all the millions of people in Chicago I could possibly have ever bumped into his friend. But,   41 , I just smiled and reminded him that Chicago was a very   42  city. He nodded, and I thought he was going to be content to drop the subject and talk about something else. But I was wrong. He was silent for a few minutes, and then he   43  to tell me all about his friend.
His friend’s main   44  in life seemed to be tennis. He was an excellent tennis player , and he   45   had his own tennis court. There were a lot of people with swimming   46 , yet there were only two people with private tennis court; his friend in Chicago was one of them. I told him that I knew several   47  like that, including my brother, who was a doctor in California. He   48  that maybe there were more private courts in the country than he   49  but he did not know of any others. Then he asked me   50  my brother lived in California. When I said Sacramento, he said that was a coincidence   51  his Chicago friend spent the summer in Sacramento last year and he lived next door to a   52  who had a tennis court in his backyard. I said I felt that really was a coincidence (巧合) because my next-door neighbour had gone to Sacramento last summer and had   53  the house next to my brother’s house.
