Love in a Box When I was a little girl, I found love in a box all because of a class assignment. On a Friday night I 1 at the dinner table, "My teacher said we have to bring a box, a special box, for our Valentines (情人节) on Monday." Mother said, "We'll see", and she continued eating. What did "We'll see" mean? I had to have that box 2 my second grade Valentine's Day would be a disaster. Maybe they didn't love me enough to help me with my 3 . All Saturday I waited 4 and with Sunday arriving, my concern increased, but I 5 an enquiry about the box might 6 anger or loud voice, for in my house children only ask once. More than that 7 trouble. Late Sunday afternoon, my father called me into the kitchen. The table was covered with colorful 8 of different kinds. A(n) 9 shoebox rested on top of it. 10 flooded through me when Daddy said, "Let's get started 11 your project." In the next hour my father 12 the shoebox into an impressive valentine box. Colorful paper covered the ugly cardboard with red hearts 13 to what I considered all the right places. He sang while he worked. When he finished, he was so delighted that a 14 smile spread over his face. "What do you think of that?" he asked. I answered him with a hug. But inside, 15 danced all the way to my heart. It was the first time that my father devoted so much 16 to me, for his world consisted of work only. The holiday party arrived, and my classmates put cards, and presents into the valentine boxes. Laughter filled our classroom until dismissal time 17 . On the way home, I held out my valentine box for the world to 18 . The love that filled it meant more to me than all inside. The valentine box became a symbol of his love that 19 through decades of other Valentine's Days. He gave me other gifts through the years, but none 20 compared with the love I felt within the limits of the old, empty shoebox. | ||||

Have you ever been in a meeting while someone was making a speech and realized suddenly that your 1 was a million miles away? You probably felt 2 and made up your mind to pay attention and never daydream again. Most of us, from earliest school 3 , have been told that daydreaming is a waste of time.
“On the contrary,”says L. Giambra, an expert in psyschology,“daydreaming is quite 4 Without it, the mind couldn’t get done all the 5 it has to do during a normal day. You can’t possibly do all your thinking with a conscious mind. 6 , your unconscious mind is working out problems all the time. Daydreaming then may be one 7 in which the unconscious and conscious 8 of mind have silent dialogue.”
Early experts in psychology paid no attention to the importance of 9 , or even considered them harmful. At one time daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental 10 . They did not have a better understanding of daydreams 11 the late 1980s. Eric Klinger, a professor of psychology, is the writer of the book Daydreaming Klinger says,“We 12 now that daydreaming is one of the main ways that we, 13 our lives, learn from our experiences, and plan for our future. Daydreams are really a reflection (反映) on the things we 14 or the things we long for in life.”
Daydreams are usually very simple and 15 , quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be 16 to understand. it’s easier to gain a 17 understanding of your life by paying close attention to your daydreams than by trying to examine your sleep dreams carefully. Daydreams help one 18 the difficult situations in life and find out a possible way for dealing with them.
Daydreams cannot be predicted (预见). They move off in 19 directions, which may be creative and full of useful ideas. For many famous artists and scientists, daydreams were, and are, a main source of creative energy.
So next time you catch 20 daydreaming, don’t stop . Just pay attention to your dreams. They may be more important than you think.

The Man Who Achieved Everything He Could
Once upon a time, there lived a man who wanted to achieve everything he was capable of achieving. He was obsessed with this desire --- he ate, slept, and walked with one and only dream: to die, having accomplished every single thing he was able to accomplish.
There were so many things he could do. He felt like the whole world could be his, 36 he set his mind to it.
He knew that his 37 had no limits. He knew that he could accumulate 38 that would dwarf (使相形见绌) that of ancient kings; he knew that he could 39 books that would shake the minds of generations; he knew that he could 40 things that would forever change the lives of millions of people. He lived, constantly feeling the power within --- and that power knew no bounds.
There was only one problem: having such a potential, but only one 41, he had to make a choice. He had to decide where to 42 all of his ability. Making that decision was extremely hard, for any 43 meant cutting off some future achievements. In the meantime, he went to school, graduated, found a job, married, and 44 children. And he spent every minute of his spare time trying to decide 45 he should bring his potential into full play.
Time went by, and he grew 46. Some roads he used to dream about became closed to him. But there was still so much he could accomplish.
One day, a sudden chest pain made him come home early. He dragged his feet to the bathroom. There, feeling 47, he looked in the mirror. A worn-out, gray-haired man stared back at him. He looked 48 into these eyes and, all of a sudden, 49 one simple truth. The next moment, the pain came again, and his heart stopped 50 forever.
The truth that came upon him was rather simple: People only flatter themselves (自以为是,自鸣得意) by thinking that they could have 51 this or that if not for such-and-such circumstances. Yet this is nothing but 52 . You simply lack something that is 53 for achieving that goal you’ve never reached — a talent, a skill, willpower, 54 something else. In fact, 55 you don’t achieve is something you’re not capable of achieving.

After winning a big game,athletes are often asked how they feel.Usually athletes say how 21 it is to win this big game.On the contrary,the fact is that losing a big game,or in my case,all the games,can be even harder.
From the spectators’ point of view,last year’s basketball 22 for my high school team was nothing 23 of an embarrassment.And 24 0—20 is certainly nothing to be proud of,that season had a bigger impact on me than any other.As a team captain,I knew it probably wouldn’t be the 25 year,but did I ever think we would lose every game?Of course not.Since six of our top players had graduated,it was clear that we were a (n) 26 team who would struggle.The struggle began earlier than expected, 27 ,as our team center was suspended (禁赛) for the season,and two key members decided to 28 for some reason.At this point,dropping out probably passed through every player’s mind,but in the end,we all stuck it out, 29 to work still harder.
Then there came a time when even our 30 had given up on us.Personally,I felt like it was 31 worthwhile giving my all.I thought,if even the coach doesn’t believe in us,why should I?But just as my hope began to 32 ,a teammate called a meeting.He said,“Nobody thinks we are going to win,but,as teammates and friends,we 33 it to each other to go all out every game.”
It was that moment that 34 me how to be a leader.It hit me that I certainly didn’t 35 the role.As a leader you can never quit 36 the team who looks up to you.It is one 37 to be named captain,feel great and go through the motions,but it is quite another to be a real captain and make sure everyone realizes their full 38 all the time.
I am sure it is great to go through without losing and bringing home awards.But in all honesty,I 39 the fact that my team lost every game last year.It may not help me to become a better basketball player,but it already has made me a better leader,and 40 .

My husband and I went into a shop that sold handcrafted items in hopes of finding a few last-minute Christmas gifts.
There was a lot 36 . Every shelf and 37 was loaded with different crafters' handiwork. As I walked through the store, I noticed a wooden plaque(瓷花金属板) hanging on a wall. I turned to take 38 look and remember shaking my head "yes" at 39 printed on the plaque.
"Life isn't about waiting for the 40 to pass," the plaque proclaimed(宣布). "It's about learning to dance in the rain."
As I pulled my husband over and directed his attention to the plaque, I could see that he too 41 the simple lesson the plaque shared. How often in our daily lives had we put conditions on our 42 ? When we get the house paid off, then we can be happy. When things settle down with the kids, then we'll be able to do more together. There is so little joy for the here and now in the uncertainties of the 43 and thens.
Looking at the plaque, I found myself 44 to a hot and muggy day the summer before, when I unknowingly 45 the plaque's message. Light rain continued to fall as I walked out to get my mail. Water was still running 46 through the gutters(屋顶檐槽). I don't know what came over me, 47 I suddenly felt forced to do something a little crazy 48 my fifty-plus years.
I 49 my shoes and stockings and began walking barefoot through the water. It was deliciously 50 , heated by the pavement that had been 51 by the summer heat.
I'm sure my neighbors thought that I had 52 my last vestige of sanity(神智健全), but I didn't care. For in that moment, I was alive. I wasn't worried about bills, the future or any other day-to-day cares. I was 53 a gift — a pure and simple moment of joy!
The plaque now hangs in my living room, a Christmas gift from my husband. I walk past it multiple times each day and 54 pause to ask myself, "So, am I 55 in the rain?"
I think I am. I know I try to. One step at a time, I am learning to dance in the rain!
