I used to believe in the American Dream, which meant a job, a mortgage, credit cards, success. I wanted it and worked toward it like everyone else, all of us   51  chasing the same thing.
One year, through a series of unhappy events, it all fell   52 . I found myself homeless and alone. I had my truck and $56. I   53  the countryside for some place I could rent for the   54  possible amount. I came upon a shabby house four miles up a winding mountain road over the Potomac River in West Virginia. It was   55 , full of broken glass and rubbish. I found the owner, rented it, and   56  a corner to camp in.
The locals knew nothing about me, but slowly, they started teaching me the   57  of being a neighbor. They dropped off blankets, candles, and tools, and began sticking around to chat. They started to teach me a belief in a   58  American Dream—not the one of individual achievement but of neighborliness.
What I had believed in, all those things I thought were   59  for a civilized life, were nonexistent in this place.   60  on the mountain, my most valuable possessions were my   61  with my neighbors.
Four years later, I moved back into   62 . I saw many people were having a really hard time,
  63  their jobs and homes. I managed to rent a big enough house to   64  a handful of people. There are four of us now in the house, but over time I’ve had nine people come in and move on to other places. We’d all be in shelters if we hadn’t banded together.
The American Dream I believe in now is a shared one. It’s not so much about what I can get for myself; it’s about   65  we can all get bytogether.

After years of searching, a truth seeker was told to go to a cave, in which he would find a well. “Ask the well what is   36  , ” he was advised, “and the well reveal (告诉,揭露) it to you.” Having found the well, the seeker asked that most basic and important   37 . And from the depths came the answer: “Go to the village crossroad, and there you shall find what you are seeking.”
Full of   38  the man ran to the crossroad to   39  only three rather uninteresting shops. One shop was selling pieces of metal, another sold   40 , and thin wires were for sale in the third. Nothing and no one there seemed to   41  much to do with the revelation of truth.
Disappointed, the seeker returned to the well to demand an   42 , but he was told only: “You will   43   in the future.”
As years went by, the   44  of his experience at the well gradually   45  until one night, while he was walking, the sound of sitar (西塔琴) music   46  his attention. It was wonderful and it was   47  with great skill and inspiration.
Deeply  48 , the truth seeker felt drawn towards the   49 . He looked at the fingers dancing over the strings. And then suddenly he let out a cry of joyful   50 : the sitar was made out of wires and pieces of metal and wood just like   51  he had once seen in the three stores.
At last he understood the   52  of the well: we have already been given everything we need; our   53  is to assemble (聚集) and use them in the proper way. Nothing is   54  so long as we recognize only fragments (碎片). But as soon as the pieces are put together, something new appears, whose nature we could not have   55  by considering the fragments alone.
