Not long ago, my daughter’s favourite leather shoes were cut by a knife. She cried. I took the shoes to a shoemaker to get them repaired.
The young apprentice (学徒) took a look at the cuts quickly and said, “There is 1 I can do but change the uppers (鞋帮).”
His master looked at them and said to me, “If you 2 me, I will add more cuts to both of the shoes on purpose for special style.”
I didn’t fully understand him, 3 I decided to leave the shoes.
Two days later, I went there to get the shoes. At the first sight I found there were indeed five or six 4 on each shoe, but all of them were covered by soft red leather sewed (缝) with thick thread (线). The shoes looked more 5 and interesting than ever. I couldn’t stop praising the master for his skill.
Another time, my wife’s 6 had an opening on the back. My wife checked it carefully, and then said, “I’ll 7 it myself.”
Three days went past, and I was very 8 to see it again: the 9 was sewed up by thin and white thread and it looked like the ice crystal (晶体). She 10 made a lovely snowman and a wooden house on the blouse. I said with praise, “It’s just as beautiful as a piece of 11 .”
“I learned from the master. Patches (补丁) can be 12 to look perfect.” replied my wife.
Her words taught me even more. Perfection (完美) is 13 to achieve in everything; patches are unavoidable (不可避免的); so is human’s life, which will appear in the form of wound, 14 or disease. Since you can’t change that, all you can do and have to do is to cover the wound by patches and try your best to make a most beautiful flower on the wound, and that is what life teaches us. Once you 15 it, you can enjoy your life better.

His students were 3 : this question was too simple.
A student first said, “ 4 I have a hoe (锄头), the weeds will be killed off.”
The second student followed, “It would be 5 to burn them with fire.” The third student argued, “Only by 6 deep can it never be born again.”
After his students finished, the old man stood up and said, “Well, when you go back, you act on your own way and come back here again in one year.”

My parents always told me that I couldn’t dance, because it was a girl’s sport. But I 1 gave up my dream of becoming a dancing star. I practiced secretly, learning from books, movies and shows. However, that 2 seemed all but impossible to reach.
One summer, my little sister Mary was going to dance lessons. I asked my parents whether I could take her to the lessons. What a good 3 to learn dancing!
One afternoon, I was practicing a new dance in my room when Mary walked 4 . “What’s the matter, Mary?” I stopped 5 . “Denis, you are a great dancer!

In the following months, we practiced every evening 8 from my parents. I was having a good time and soon Mary improved a lot. Finally came the big day. I became 9 when I heard my parents would come to watch the show. As the 10 began, I took a deep breath and tried to 11 . We moved perfectly, shining with pride. From the cheering of the crowd, I was sure we had been 12 .
My heart was beating 13 when I saw my father coming towards me. He put his hand on my shoulder. “Well done, son. Though it is hard for me to admit (承认) it, I have to say you are born to 14 . Go for it and make us proud.”

It was a cold day in 2017, and I didn’t want to drive up the mountain road to my daughter Carolyn’s house. 1 , she really expected me to see something at the top of the mountain. So here I was, unwillingly making the journey through 2 . When I saw how thick it was near the top, I’d gone too far to turn back. “ 3 could be worse than this,” I thought as I moved along the dangerous road.
“I’ll stay for lunch, but I’m going back as soon as the fog lifts,” I 4 when I arrived.
“But mom, I want you to see something at the top,” Carolyn said. “Could we at least do that?”
“How 5 is it?” I asked. “About three minutes,” she said. “I’ll drive—I’m used to it.”
6 ten minutes on the mountain road, I looked at her worriedly. “I thought you said three minutes.” She smiled, “This is a different road.”
Finally, we parked the car and got out. We walked along a path that was 7 with old pine needles (松针). Gradually, the peace and silence began to 8 my mind.
Then we turned around a corner and stopped in amazement. Hundreds of daffodils (水仙花) in different 9 —from white to lemon to red—shone like a carpet before us. At the center were purple hyacinths (风信子). Here and there were coral-colored tulips (郁金香).
A series of questions filled my mind. 10 created such beauty? How? When?
As we went to the house in the center of the field, we saw a sign that read, “ 11 to the Questions I Know You Are Asking.”
The first answer was “One Woman—Two Hands, Two Feet, and Very Little Brain.”
The second “One at a Time.” The third “ 12 in 1978.”
As we drove home, I was so moved by what we had seen, I could hardly speak.
“ 13 changed the world,” I finally said, “One flower at a time. She started almost 40 years ago, 14 just the beginning of an idea, but she kept at it. ”
“Imagine,” I said, “if I’d had a goal and worked at it, just a little bit every day, what might I have 15 ?”
Carolyn looked at me, smiling. “Start tomorrow,” she said, “Better yet, start today. ”

“Which is which?” Alice wondered. She took 1 pieces of the mushroom, one from each side. She tried the piece she held in her right hand. WHOOOSH! BANG! Her chin hit her feet. She quickly ate a piece of the 2 in her left hand. “Oh! That’s better!” she said happily.
But where were her shoulders? When she 3 , she could only see a very long neck. She tried to move her 4 nearer the ground. She could move her neck easily but it twisted (扭转) itself around the branches of the trees. She had to 5 several times and untwist it.
At last she found her hands. First she ate a bit of mushroom from her left hand, then a bit from her 6 hand, then another bit from her left hand. Sometimes she grew bigger, sometimes 7 but at last she was her usual size again.
“Good! Now I can go and look for that beautiful garden!” she said to 8 and started walking. After a while, she saw a small house in the trees, only about four feet high.
“Who lives there? I’m too 9 to meet them. I don’t want to frighten them.”
She decided to eat a small piece of the mushroom in her right hand 10 soon she was only nine inches tall. Alice looked at the house for a minute or two and wondered what to do.
Suddenly a footman with the face of a 11 ran out of the woods. He had a big envelope under his arm. He knocked on the door of the house and another footman with the face of a frog 12 it.
The fish-footman gave the frog-footman the envelope and said in a very 13 voice: “For the Duchess. An invitation from the 14 to play croquet.”

Not long ago, my daughter’s favourite leather shoes were cut by a knife. She cried. I took the shoes to a shoemaker to get them repaired.
The young apprentice (学徒) took a look at the cuts quickly and said, “There is 1 I can do but change the uppers (鞋帮).”
His master looked at them and said to me, “If you 2 me, I will add more cuts to both of the shoes on purpose for special style.”
I didn’t fully understand him, 3 I decided to leave the shoes.
Two days later, I went there to get the shoes. At the first sight I found there were indeed five or six 4 on each shoe, but all of them were covered by soft red leather sewed (缝) with thick thread (线). The shoes looked more 5 and interesting than ever. I couldn’t stop praising the master for his skill.
Another time, my wife’s 6 had an opening on the back. My wife checked it carefully, and then said, “I’ll 7 it myself.”
Three days went past, and I was very 8 to see it again: the 9 was sewed up by thin and white thread and it looked like the ice crystal (晶体). She 10 made a lovely snowman and a wooden house on the blouse. I said with praise, “It’s just as beautiful as a piece of 11 .”
“I learned from the master. Patches (补丁) can be 12 to look perfect.” replied my wife.
Her words taught me even more. Perfection (完美) is 13 to achieve in everything; patches are unavoidable (不可避免的); so is human’s life, which will appear in the form of wound, 14 or disease. Since you can’t change that, all you can do and have to do is to cover the wound by patches and try your best to make a most beautiful flower on the wound, and that is what life teaches us. Once you 15 it, you can enjoy your life better.

A series of questions filled my mind. 10 created such beauty? How? When?
As we went to the house in the center of the field, we saw a sign that read, “ 11 to the Questions I Know You Are Asking.”

The second “One at a Time.” The third “ 12 in 1978.”
As we drove home, I was so moved by what we had seen, I could hardly speak.
“ 13 changed the world,” I finally said, “One flower at a time. She started almost 40 years ago, 14 just the beginning of an idea, but she kept at it. ”
“Imagine,” I said, “if I’d had a goal and worked at it, just a little bit every day, what might I have 15 ?”
Carolyn looked at me, smiling. “Start tomorrow,” she said, “Better yet, start today. ”
