A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was the 　36 was he found himself unable to ask for help-his mobile phone went out of 　37 as a result of exhausted battery. Nothing could be done but to

38 in cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the 　39 of the rescue.

　 It is almost 　40 that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 41 : “First of all I checked up my 　42 conditions and found myself not in fatal danger. As there was no 　43 to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from 44 . In this way I dozed (打盹) off.”

His story put an end to my regret for the 　45 of an exploration adventure that happened last year. A group of young men 　46 to explore a mountain cave and got lost.

47 to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of 　48 . Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the 　49　

people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the

50 of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to 　51

themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering (闪烁) not far away.

　 Don’t you think that you can compare it with 　52 itself? When you meet with obstacles in life and work, you are lost in darkness. 　53 you it’s unclear yet and you needn’t put up struggle 　54 . It seems to be a negative attitude, 　55 a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as a great courage in the first place.
