A great many people are disappointed because of unrealistic expectations.
Walking up to a department store’s cloth counter, a(n) 1   young woman said, “I want to buy this material for a new dress. How much does it cost?”
“Only one   2   per yard,” replied the smirking (自鸣得意的) male clerk.
Not to be taken back by the funny words, the woman said,” That’s fine! I’ll take ten yards.”
With   3   written all over his face, the clerk   4   measured out and wrapped the cloth, then held it out teasingly, 5   forward to receive his “ 6  ”.
The woman got the package quickly from the clerk and pointed to a little old man standing beside her. “Grandpa will pay the bill instead of me,” she   7   .
He was no doubt disappointed. But in the course of living, many people are 8         when others do not   9   their expectations. In order to be happy, some expectations must be dropped. These three particular   10   and unhealthy expectations are some of the main causes:
1. Expect too much 11   .When others say, “Thank you,” or in any way to show their gratitude, be happy. It is a gift!
2. Expect others to make you happy. They simply cannot do that. Make yourself happy and       12   your joy with others.
3. Expect not to be 13   . At times, people will simply not come through for you in the way you need. 14   them and move on.
Get rid of these three unrealistic expectations and you can begin to expect more   15        right away!

I was cleaning out an old box when an old card caught my eye: Queen City Casket Company. “What is it?” I wondered. I 21 it over. There, in faded ink, was a hand-scrawled(手写的)   22   . Immediately my mind traveled back many years.
I was nine years old, walking down the cold, wet street of Springfield, with a bag of   23
on my shoulder. On my rounds that day, I came to that Company finally, whose owner, Mr. Rader, had always taken me there to ask his workers if they wanted any magazines.

Noticing the hole in the top of my __25__, he said, “Come with me!”, pulling me into his pickup truck. We pulled to a stop before a shoe store. Inside, a salesman                   26    me with the finest pair of Oxfords I had ever seen. I   27   about 10 feet tall when I got up in them. “We’d like a pair of new socks too,” Mr. Rader said.

I said goodbye, and for the first time I sensed a flicker of hope that somehow things would be   30 . With people like Mr. Rader in the world, there was hope, kindness and love, and that would always make a difference.

That night, while I lay 29    in bed, a voice in my deep heart said, “While    30    with a stranger, you are so polite, but with the children you love, you are so easily       31   . Why are there some flowers by the door? Those are the flowers she brought for you. She        32    them herself, pink, yellow and your favorite blue. She stood quietly in order to give you a 33    , and you never saw the          34    in her eyes.”
By this time, I felt very               35    and now my tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt (跪下) by her

I really hated having to ask questions, for math is very difficult for me, so I don’t know why I thought I could take classes in pre-calculus in my junior year.
I like Mr Trout, his values and what he believed in   36   a teacher. He wanted us to really   __37   what we were doing. I respected that, but all the numbers were still so   38   to me. I studied endless hours, and it   39   at first, until the algebra（代数）was over. That was   40   I learned how to ask for help on something as silly as   41   problems. I realized that the only 42_   I would survive pre-calculus would be to   43   a tutor.

Mr Hicks came to my house the next week. I   46   how I was going to bring myself to ask this man questions. But he   47   took his pen and paper out, asked me what chapter we were __48 , and began to teach.
It was amazing. I began to understand math. I did example   49   with him, worked them out several times until I understood the process. I didn’t feel   50 asking questions because it was helping.
Asking for help was not what I thought it would be.    51   , it was a very good thing. I actually felt smarter for it, and it was a really satisfying   52 .
