When I was young，my father told me that little acts of kindness may give one great happiness. Since then I have always tried to help people in 1 .
One hot summer afternoon, I was 2 down the highway to New York when another car suddenly 3 into my lane(车道). My car was in the far right lane，so it ran onto the roadside. As a(n) 4 driver，I moved my car quickly and skillfully back onto the highway without causing any accident.
I was 5 with that driver，but I thought that he just did not pay attention to（注意） the lane change, and he 6 did not do that on purpose(故意).The car ran away 7 after cutting me off. Very soon it disappeared from sight. After a while，I came around a curve(弯道) and found the 8 car. The driver was walking along the roadside. He was an elderly man and looked 9 . As there was no telephone nearby and the nearest services were twenty miles away, I decided to 10 and see what the problem was.
The man’s car had a flat tire(瘪胎). Although he had another tire，he had nothing to work with. I decided to 11 him. I changed the tire for him and allowed him to sit in my air-conditioned car while I did it. Fifteen minutes later，I 12 the work. I was hot and tired，but I really felt 13 after an act of kindness to the man who had earlier 14 my car run off the road.
You can really enjoy great 15 from kindness acts, so always lend your hands to others in trouble.

In one way of thinking, failure is part of life. In 26 way, failure may be a way towards success. The “Spider-story” is often 27 Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider 28 a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough 29 in the rock. He tried six times. On the 30 time he made it and went on to make his web. Bruce is said to have been encouraged by this and to have gone on to 31 the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made 32 models that failed before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked 33 he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, “Failure? I have 34 failures. Now I know 50,000 ways it won't 35”.
So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused 36 ？Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change? So things will go 37 next times.
Second, is the goal（目标 ） you're trying to reach the right one? Try to do some 38 about what your real goals may be. Think about this question. “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?" This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn't be doing any way.
The third thing to keep in 39 about failure is that it's a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself" even though you may have 40 ．
