One day I was putting some donated tents into my truck when something sharp got into my left eye．Immediately l fell down and knew it was ___1___．

I was taken to a ___2___ and the doctors there operated on me but couldn't ___3__ my eye．When they told me the news，I really wanted to die．Everything seemed __4___ in front of me．

Even after I got my man-made eye，I still felt very sad．To make things worse，I lost my __5___ as a transportation officer because of worries about my driving ability．

But one morning，I woke up and the __6___ was on，and there was a l6-year-old girl．She had been seriously burned on her legs and was learning to ___7___ again．She wore a big smile，saying，“You can never give up．” It seemed that she said this specially to ___8__．At that moment，I felt ___9___ and thought，“This is just an eye．Get over it．”

Soon I really got over it and ___10___ myself．It’s almost 12 years since my accident，and now I can do anything that I used to do．No one can even ___11___ I have a man-made eye，because the new one is so good．And ___12___ I haven’t got my old job back，I’ve got my driving license（执照）again．
