On the positive side, I　 10　 down, “research, writing, analysis, and speaking.” On the　 11　 side, I wrote, “I have no mechanical skills.”

    Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life 　12 and told him about my 　13　 performance on the Army test. Bob then asked, “　 14　 is it that you can solve 　 15　 mathematical problems, but you can’t solve simple mechanical problems?”

    Suddenly I realized that I didn’t 　16　 from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to 　17　 . At that point, it wasn’t just my family and friends who had been　 18　 my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn’t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, “You can’t do this!” I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true. 　19　 , if we don’t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost 　20　 we choose.

    　　Every August on the island of Heimaey, off the southern coast of Iceland, young people often take a walk along the street throughout the night．What’s more, their parents allow them to stay out．Why? The children of Heimaey are going to save young puffins－small black－and white seabirds．

    　　The cliffs above the town are home to a large group of puffins．The birds dig holes all around the cliffs．These holes are their homes．Their young stay in the holes for about seven weeks．Then they begin to leave．Some move slowly on their undeveloped wings and fell down to the northern Atlantic Ocean that surrounds Heimaey．There they swim, which they can do naturally, and learn to dive for fish．Others, however, may lose their way at night and find themselves in the town instead．On the ground, the young seabirds are in trouble．Because their wings are not fully developed, they cannot take off quickly to sea and safety．The birds then become a good meal for cats and other animals．

    　　For many years, islanders have helped the young puffins．Early at night in late August, children carrying thick paper boxes and lights hurry to the seashore to catch puffins．They spend most of the night running after the birds．They put the birds they’ve caught in boxes and take good care of them．

    　　The next morning the children take the puffins to the ocean and set them free．The birds will live at sea until they are at least two years old．Then they will return to the cliffs to build homes of their own for their families．

    　　Will the children of Heimaey always come to save puffiness? “Yes, ”answered the boy．“We look forward to it．The best time for us is setting the birds free．”
