A teacher teaching math to seven-year-old  Laiq asked him, “If I give you one apple and one apple and one apple , how many apples will you have?”

The confused teacher was expecting a(n)         correct answer, three. She was disappointed. “Maybe the child didn’t hear       ” she thought. She          , “Laiq, listen carefully. If I give you one apple and one apple and one apple, how many apples will you have?”
Laiq had seen the        on his teacher’s face. He         again on his fingers. But within him he was also   the answer that would make the teacher happy. This time hesitatingly he replied, “Four.”

This time with an excitement in her     she asked, “If I give you one strawberry and one strawberry and one strawberry, then how many will you have?”
Seeing the teacher        , young Laiq calculated on his fingers again. There was no pressure on him, but a little on the teacher. She wanted her new        to succeed.      a hesitating smile young Laiq replied, “Three?”
The teacher now had a       smile. Her approach had succeeded. She wanted to        herself. But one last thing remained.       she asked him, “Now if I give you one apple and one apple and one more apple , how many will you have ?”
Confidently Laiq answered, ‘Four!” The teacher was        “How Laik , how?” She demanded in a little annoyed voice.
In a voice that was        and hesitating young Laik replied, “Because I already have one       in my bag.”
The story tells us:     someone gives you an answer that is        from what you expect, don’t think they are wrong. There shall be an angle(角度) that you may not have thought about yet.

While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport in Portland, Oregon, I noticed a man coming toward me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to       his family.
First he moved to his youngest son as he laid down his bags. They gave each other a long, loving hug.       they separated, I heard the father say, “It’s so good to see you, son. I missed you so much!” His son smiled somewhat shyly and replied softly, “Me, too, Dad!”
Then the man stood up, gazed in the       of his oldest son and said, “You’re already quite the young man. I love you very much, Zach!” They too hugged a most loving, tender hug.
After several       , he turned to his wife and declared, “I’ve saved the best for last!” and      to give his wife the longest, most passionate kiss I       remember seeing.
For an instant they       me of newlyweds(新婚夫妇), but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn’t possibly be. I puzzled about it for a moment and gathered my courage to      ask, “Wow! How long have you been married?”
“Almost twelve years.” he replied,       breaking his gaze from his lovely wife’s face. “Well then, how long have you been away?” I asked. The man      turned and looked at me,. “Two whole days”
Two days? I was      . By the intensity of the greeting, I had       he’d been gone for at least several weeks — if not months. I know my expression      me. Hoping to stop our conversation politely and continue with my       for my friend, I said almost immediately, “I hope my        is still that passionate after twelve years!”
The man suddenly       smiling. He looked me straight in the eye, and with power that burned right into my soul, he told me something that left me a        person. He told me, “Don’t    , friend …decide!” Then with wonderful smile, he and his family turned and left together.
I was still watching that special family walk just out of sight when my friend        to me and asked, “What are you looking at?” Without      , and with a curious sense of certainty, I replied, “ My future!”

How often do you let other people’s nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter, rude boss, or an insensitive employee      your day?
One day I was in a taxi and we headed      the airport. We were driving in the right lane      suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, slide sideways, and at the very last moment our car stopped and narrowly      the other car by just inches!The driver of the other car looked around and started      at us.
My taxi driver just      and waved at the guy. And I mean he was really     . So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!”This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call “The Law of the Garbage Truck”.
He       that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of     , full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage      up, they need a place to dump (倒) it and sometimes they’ll dump it on     . Don’t take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on.
Believe me. You’ll be more     . Don’t take their garbage and      it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets, Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with     . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s       in your life. Roy Baumeister, a psychology researcher from Florida State University, found in his extensive research that you       bad things more often than good things in your life. You store the bad memories rather easily, and you      them more frequently.
So...Love the people who treat you right. Ignore the ones who don’t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you       it!
When you follow “The Law of the Garbage Truck”, you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by       go of the bad. Have a Garbage Free Day!Have a marvelous, garbage-free day!The seeds you plant today      the harvest you reap tomorrow.
