In a way it is our beliefs that determine how much we’ll be able to 10 our potential．So pay attention to some of your 11 ．Do you believe you are weak in mathematics? Do you believe that other people dislike you？Do you believe life is full of 12 ？
Belief is not 13 , however．It’s nothing but the generalization of a past incident．As a kid, if a dog bit you, you believed all dogs to be 14 ．To change certain behavior, identify the beliefs associated with it．Change those beliefs and a new pattern is 15 created．

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, becomes unhappy. This from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds.
The people who are to be happy their attention to the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the things. They are, , continually unsatisfied. By their words, they complain about the pleasure of society, offend many people, and themselves disagreeable (不受欢迎的) everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation (模仿). It grows into a habit, unknown its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and them change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of imagination, it has serious in life, since it causes deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most politeness and respect. This puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at obtaining advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step speak a word to favor their hopes. If they cause themselves public objections (反对), no one will or excuse them, and many join to criticize their wrongdoings. These people should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.

Wings of Angel
I used to hate myself because I wasn’t “normal”. Everyone else could play on the monkey bars and ride on a bicycle, but not 37 . I had a severe spinal cord disorder (脊髓病) and I knew I would always be much 38 than others.
I hated going to school and I hated people 39 at me. I hated seeing others smiling broadly and standing straight and tall. And most of all, I hated looking in the 40 and seeing an ugly hunchback (驼背).
My friends found me distant because I didn’t let others get 41 to me. I thought I was going to go on like this for the rest of my life 42 Angela appeared.
That afternoon, I was sitting by myself in a corner of the school — a spot where no one would 43 me. That’s when I first heard her voice.
“Hi. Can I sit down?”
I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible smile on her round face.
“What are you looking at?” she asked.
“Ants.”
“What are they doing?”
“No idea.”
“I bet they’re playing games and making friends. Don’t you think so?”
That was how our 44 started and it didn’t stop. We talked about everything under the sun—the ants, the clouds, my situation — until it was sunset.
Then suddenly, she saw my 45 . She just stared.
My heart sank. What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would 46 me now.
She stood up, pointed at my back and said, “I know 47 your back is hunched.”
I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be sentenced(审判). I begged in my heart for
her to 48 , but she just kept on going. “I know what you’ve got in there. Do you?”
“No,” I answered weakly.
She bent and 49 my ears.
“Your back is hunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”
I was 50 .I looked into her eyes and her kindness touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to 51 myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind-hearted friend.

During the years of depression(萧条), food and money were very hard to find and people had to trade things with each other.
One day I was 36 some potatoes from Mr Miller. I noticed a small poor boy hungrily 37 a full basket of freshly picked green peas. Then I was 38 to see that Mr Miller sold the boy a bag of peas for just a marble (弹球).
Mrs Miller, who had been standing nearby, 39_ and told me that Mr Miller loved to trade with the three boys in the village for peas, tomatoes, and other things 40 he didn’t really need any marbles. I left the stand, smiling to myself, 41 by this man.
Several years went by. One day I learned that Mr Miller had died. I took part in the funeral(葬礼), 42_ three young men . They came over to Mrs Miller, hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke with her and moved on, _43_ their eyes.
Our _44_ came to meet Mrs Miller. I mentioned _45 she had told me about the _46. She told me, “Those three young men above were the boys I told you about. They just told me 47 they appreciated the things Jim ‘traded ’with them. Now, at last, they came to pay their debt.”
“We’ve _48 had a great deal of the wealth in this world,” she _49_, “but right now, Jim wouldW#W$W%.K**S*&5︿U consider himself to be the _50_ man.”
Then she gently lifted the 51 fingers of her husband. Resting underneath were three red marbles.
At that time I realized that we would not be 52 by our words, but by our kind 53 . It is said that it takes a minute to find a 54 person, an hour to appreciate him, a day to love him, but an entire life to 55 him.

It is not so much what happens to each of us that determines our quality of life, but rather our reaction to what happens. Though we may have no 36 in unexpected events that happen to us, we most certainly have choice in 37 we interpret what happens, and in whatwe choose to do about it.

Neither does what we own 40 a major role in quality of life.

But by continually reminding ourselves of our intention to be creators, we can transform our life.
