In Britain, people have different attitudes to the police. Most people generally 1 them and the job they do-although there are certain people who do not believe that the police should have the power that they do.
What does a policeman actually do? It is not a(n) 2 job to describe. After
all, a policeman has a number of jobs in one. A policeman often has to control traffic,either on foot in the center of a town, or in apolice car on the roads. Indeed, in Britain, he might be in the Traffic Police and spend all, or a lot of, his time 3up and down main roads and motorways. A traffic policeman has to help keep the traffic moving, stop 4 motorists and help when there is an accident.
A policeman has to help keep the 5 , too. If there is a fight or some other
disturbance, we 6 the police to come and restore order. And they often have to7 situation at great risk to their own 8 .
We expect the police to solve crimes, of course; so an ordinary policeman,
9 he is not a detective(侦探), will often have to help 10 and arrest criminals.
And who do we call when there is an emergency-an air crash, a 11 , a
road accident, or a robbery? We call the police. So a policeman has to be 12 to face any unpleasant emergency that may happen in the 13 world.
The police do an absolutely necessary job. They do it 14 well and I
support them, but I do not envy policemen. I do not think that I could 15 do
the job of a policeman.

Once, it was in the middle of a personal development workshop. One of the people present stood up and began 36 out diamond rings to each of the one hundred people in the room.
He was a 37 jeweler, he said, and he had made these expensive 38 as gifts to open people’s eyes to the abundance(富裕) of life.
On his fifth birthday, the man 39 , his uncle had taken him to a candy (糖果) 40 and told him that he could take 41 he wanted, and as much as he wanted. 42 he was very pleased and decided to 43 something he liked best.
The entire store was 44 to him. He had looked at the jars and plates, and he hadn’t known where to 45 . At last, he filled a bag with all his 46 candies. He didn’t take everything, 47 that feeling of being able to have whatever he wanted seemed to make him very 48 .
Since then, he said, he had been able to 49 the abundance of life. He saw the world as full of 50 , riches and beauty — all you had to do was, take your pick and fill your bag.
The sad truth is that most of us grow up with the 51 feeling —we develop a poverty mentality(贫穷心理). We 52 believe that there simply isn’t enough. We think we have to 53 , fight and struggle, so that we can get what we need and want. If we can’t 54 our hands to get, someone else will be searching through our pockets. The 55 of that mentality is that we all have to go hungry.
Get a taste of abundance and try to have a great life.
