A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was the 　31　 was that he found himself unable to ask for help—his mobile phone went out of 　32　 as a result of exhausted battery (无电) . Nothing could be done but to 　33　 in cold wilderness (荒野). It was eight hours later that day broke, and then 　34　 of the rescue (援救).

　 It is almost 　35　 that he could stand （忍受）the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 　36　 : “First of all, I checked up my 　37　　 conditions and found myself not in mortal (致命的) danger. As there was no 　38　 to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from 　39　 . In this way I dozed (瞌睡) off.”

　 His story put an end to my regret (遗憾) for the 　40　 of an exploration adventure (探险) that happened last year. A group of young men 　41　 to explore a mountain cave and got lost. 　42　 to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of 　43　 . Finally they felt dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the 　44 people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the 　45　 of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to 　46　 themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering (闪烁) not far away.

Don’t you think you can compare it with 　47　 itself? When you meet with difficulty in life and work, you are lost in darkness. 　48　 you it’s unclear yet and you needn’t put up struggle 　49 . It seems to be a negative （消极）attitude, 　50　 a person who can afford to do so must have foresight (远见) as well as a great courage in the first place.
