Optimism and pessimism are both powerful forces. Each of us must choose which we want to ______ our future and our expectations. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or ______. It’s our decision: from which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in ______ or down in desperation?
I believe in the upward look. I choose to ______ the positive and skip right over the negative.
An optimistic attitude is not a luxury(奢侈品); it’s a(n) ______. The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people. ______, negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations ______ themselves; they become a self-fulfilling prophecy (预言). Pessimism creates a dark place where no one wants to live.
Years ago, I drove into a service station to get some gas. It was a beautiful day, and I was feeling great. As I walked into the station to pay for the gas, the attendant said to me, “How do you feel?” That seemed like a(n) ______ question, but I felt fine and told him so. “You don’t look well,” he replied. This ______ me completely by surprise. A little ______ confidently, I told him that I had ______ felt better. Without hesitation, he continued to tell me how bad I looked and that my skin appeared yellow.
By the time I left the service station, I was feeling a little ______. About a block away, I ______ over to the side of the road to look at my face in the mirror. How did I feel? Was I affected with jaundice(黄疸)? Was everything all right? By the time I got home, I was beginning to feel a little nauseous(恶心). Did I have a bad liver? Had I ______ some rare disease?
On another beautiful day, when I went into that gas station, feeling _____ again, I figured out what had happened. The place had recently been painted a bright, distasteful ______, and the light reflecting ______ the walls made everyone inside look as though they had hepatitis(肝炎)! I wondered how many other folks had ______ the way I did. I had let one short conversation with a total ______ change my attitude for an entire day. He told me I looked sick, and before long, I was actually feeling sick. That single ______ observation had a great effect on the way I felt and acted.
The only thing more powerful than negativism is a word of optimism and hope. When a whole culture adopts an upward look, incredible things can be accomplished.

第二节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1. 5分，满分30分）
In a national spelling contest in America, an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her    36    voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E. They talked it over and    37    decided to simply ask her what she had said. By now, the girl knew she had    38   the word. But instead of lying, she told the truth that she had said the    39   letter---so she lost the contest.
As the girl walked off the   40   , the entire audience stood to their feet clapping to applaud her    41   . Later, dozens of newspaper reporters wrote about this 11-year-old girl’s honesty(诚实), even when it   42    her the contest. But the fact is that she   43    the biggest contest that day: the contest of her    44   .

Her respect for herself was more important than any    50    others might give her for winning a contest. She knew she would have to live with herself and the   51    she made in that moment will have long-lasting influence.
It’s so true that the choices you make today    52  what you are tomorrow. Our children will    53   our behavior much more than our advice. So if we want them to   54    to be honest, we must show them the way by being honest ourselves. Remember, our kids are     55 what we do and how we live even when we don’t think they see or know.
