Many years ago, a salesman opened a bag of things from Scotland and found a card at the top. It 36 , “Expect a Miracle（奇迹）.” “What does that mean?” he thought, and then 37 it into his pocket.
That night he showed it to his wife. “Look at this, dear. What do you think it means?”
“Maybe this is what we need,” she said. “Our 38 are so great that they are too much for us. If we start 39 great things instead of the worst, miracle may 40 .” They decided to try changing their thinking for a few days, starting with their 41 problems. Then something changed. Not only did they find their problems 42 be worked out, but they also started 43 a lot of money.

One becomes hopeful and optimistic(乐观的). Little problems began 47 , while the big ones become much easier to work out. Success is not 48 you thought it was.
A positive thinker first sets clear and proper goals(目标). Then he goes to work, and 49 working. He never gives up. His dreams are sure to come true, and 50 they do, a miracle happens.
Miracles come in all 51 : big, medium-sized, and small. Start expecting the small ones, and work your way 52 to the big. Think positively, 53 yourself and work hard. You’ll find yourself 54 by how meaningful and 55 your life has become.

"Ready... set..." The gun popped and off we were. The other girls ran ahead of me. I found myself limping(跛) and felt ashamed as I 38 farther and farther behind.
The first-place runner was two laps(圈) ahead of me when she crossed the finish line. "Hooray!" the 39 shouted with the loudest cheer I had ever heard at a meeting.

When I finished, I heard a cheer-just as 44 as the one the first-place girl received "What was that all about?" I asked myself. I turned around and sure enough, the boys were preparing for their race. "They 45 be cheering for the boys."
I went 46 to the bathroom where a girl came across me and said, "Wow, you've got courage!"
I thought, "Courage? She must be 47 me for someone else. I just 48 a race! I would have never been able to finish those two miles 49 I were you. What happened to your foot? We were cheering for you. Did you hear us?"
I couldn't believe it. A(n) 50 stranger had cheered for me-not for my victory, but for my perseverance. Suddenly I 51 hope. I decided to stick with track next year. One girl saved my 52 .
That day I learned two things. First, a 53 kindness and confidence in people can make a great difference to them. Second, strength and courage aren't measured in the 54 and victories. They are measured in the struggles we 55 .

When a person is curious about something, it means he is 36 in it and wishes to know something about it. We can say he has curiosity about that thing. There is nothing wrong with curiosity in itself. Whether it is good or bad 37 on what people are curious about.
Curiosity 38 can be silly or wrong. Some people with nothing to do are 39 of curiosity about what their neighbours are doing. They are anxious to know what they are eating or drinking, what they are 40 home or taking outside, or why they have come home so early or late. To be interested in these things is silly because they are not important. It is none of their 41 to know what their neighbours do or are doing. Such curiosity is not only foolish but also harmful. Most probably, it may 42 to small talk which often brings harm, shame or disrespect to 43 , and thus 44 their feelings.
On the other hand, there is a noble (高尚的) curiosity — curiosity of wise men, who wonder at all the great things and try to find out all they 45 about them. Columbus would never have found America if he had not been 46 . James Watt would not have made the steam engine 47 his curiosity about the rising of the kettle lid. All the discoveries in human history have been made 48 a result of curiosity, 49 the curiosity is never about unimportant things which have 50 — or nothing to do with the happiness of the public.
