He had 42 dropped the textbooks he was carrying onto his desk. “Good morning!”, he said still 43 . “I am glad to see everyone is 44 . Now let’s get started. ”

For the next hour I wasn’t sleepy at all. It wasn’t from the 45 of my professor’s textbook alarm clock either. It was instead from the 46 discussion he led. With knowledge and good　 47 he made the material come 48 . His insight was full of both wisdom and loving-kindness. And the enthusiasm and joy that he 49 with were contagious（有感染力的）. I 50 the classroom not only wide awake, but a little 51 and a little better as well.

I learned something far more important than not 52 in class that day too. I learned that if you are going to do something in this life，do it well，do it with 53 . What a wonderful place this would be if all of us did our work joyously and well. Don’t sleepwalk your way through 54 then. Wake up! Let your love fill your work. Life is too 55 not to live it well.
