They never quit    ( look) for a way to get where they    ( suppose )to go! Second, ants think about winter and summer. They are always gathering in their winter food in the middle of summer and they are making   ( prepare)for the long cold winter. So you have to think about storms in summer ; think about rocks  you enjoy the sand and sun. Third, ants think about summer all winter. During the winter, they remind    ,“ This won’ t last long and we’ll soon be out of here. ”On the first warm day, the ants are out. If it   ( turn)cold again, they’ll dive back down. But they come out again if it is warm. Last, how much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for the winter? All that it   ( possible) can. you can learn from the ant philosophy is: Never give up, look ahead, stay positive and do all you can.

He said “I am chairing the meeting this Saturday. We will have your party on Sunday.”
Saturday evening I sat on my bed,   (feel) sorry for myself. Dad started to leave, then paused and said, “Why not come with me together tonight? It’s an open meeting. All are welcome”.     would I do at a meeting? But maybe I needed to see why something Dad every week mattered so much.
After we arrived, Dad announced the theme of the meeting was going to be gratitude. He told his story about giving up smoking. Later, a man     (call) Dave also told his story. Only then did I know it was Dad that saved his life from drinking. Showing up week after week and meeting with people, Dad was changing lives. Shame washed over me.
