If I were a boy again, I would practice perseverance more often, and never give up a thing because it was hard or inconvenient. 36 “There are only two creatures,” says a proverb, “who can surmount(越过) the pyramids — the eagle and the snail.”
If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention. I would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. 37 The habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. I often hear grown-up people say, “I could not fix my attention on the lecture or book, although I wished to do so,” and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.
If I were a boy again, I would cultivate courage. “Nothing is so mild and gentle as courage, nothing so cruel and pitiless as cowardice (怯懦),” says a wise author. 38 The fear of ill exceeds(超过) the ill we fear. Dangers will arise in any career, but presence of mind will often conquer the worst of them. 39
If I were a boy again, I would look on the cheerful side. Life is very much like a mirror: if you smile upon it, it smiles back upon you; but if you frown and look doubtful on it, you will get a similar look in return. Inner sunshine warms not only the heart of the owner, but of all that come in contact with it.
40 I might write pages on the importance of learning very early in life to gain that point where a young boy can stand straight and decline doing an unworthy act because it is unworthy.
Finally, instead of trying hard to be happy, as if that were the sole purpose of life, I would, if I were a boy again, try still harder to make others happy.
A. If we want light, we must conquer darkness.
B. If I were a boy again, I would school myself to say “No” oftener.
C. We too often borrow trouble, and expect that may never appear.
D. I would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once.
E. If I were a boy again, I would demand of myself more courtesy towards my companions and friends and indeed towards strangers as well.
F. Perseverance can sometimes equal genius in its results.
G. Be prepared for any fate, and there is no harm to be feared.
Frank doesn’t speak Chinese so ______ as Harry.
A. better B. well C. good D. wonderful

Recently I understood the true meaning of love. The 41 was Kane, my neighbor Joline’s two-year-old son.
Kane was born with a physical problem on his 42 . And I witnessed the 43 that Kane’s physical shortcomings had on his family. I also witnessed much more than that. I saw a 44 family that embraced (拥抱) this special child. A family that wouldn’t allow Kane to know he was 45 . Joline had constructed a small cart just a few inches off the floor for his son to 46 . Kane used his hands to move about, and the cart 47 him to “go to” any place just as everyone else was able to do. Kane was not just a member of the family, but the 48 of the family.
With a wide smile, it was easy to see that even at the age of two, Kane liked to 49 with people very much. With wisdom of an individual, this boy even 50 the most complex of human emotions. Later I came to 51 that this child was sent to help some of us who weren’t just getting what love was all about.
Kane demanded attention, 52 not because of his mobility (移动能力) challenges or other apparent shortcomings. In his mind, he had no 53 or shortcomings. The 54 was that he received attention because he was alive and real and had so much to offer.
Kane 55 me in a deep way. His ability to refuse to be different has 56 me. Kane was and is 57 lots of warm and powerful energy to me. From him and his family I learnt the 58 : love surpasses (超越) all things. I can only imagine that as the parent of a child like Kane one might be filled with 59 . But I believe that having a child like Kane is actually a(n) 60 . The parents of such special babies are angels too, just as the babies are.
