A group of class friends, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon           into complaints about stress in work and life.
Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the           and returned with a large pot of coffee and a couple of           — porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some           looking, some expensive, some delicate — telling them to          themselves to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in          , the professor said: “If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up,           behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is           for you to choose only the best for yourselves, that is the           of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself           no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink.           all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went           the best cups. And then you began                each other’s cups. Now consider this: Life is the         ; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and the type of cup we have does not define nor          the quality of life we          . Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we           to enjoy the coffee God has           for us. God brews the coffee, not the cups…Enjoy your coffee!”
The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just           the best of everything.
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the           to God.

People on a college campus were more likely to give money to the March of Dimes if they were asked for a donation by a disabled woman in a wheelchair than if asked by a nondisabled woman. In another         , subway riders in New York saw a man carrying a stick stumble(绊脚) and fall to the floor. Sometimes the victim had a large red birthmark on his       ; sometimes he did not. In this situation, the victim was more likely to          aid if his face was spotless than if he had an unattractive birthmark. In          these and other research findings, two themes are          : we are more willing to help people we like for some reason and people we think      assistance.
In some situations, those who are physically attractive are more likely to receive aid.        , in a field study researchers placed a completed application to graduate school in a telephone box at the airport. The application was ready to be         , but had apparently been "lost". The photo attached to the application was sometimes that of a very           person and sometimes that of a less attractive person. The measure of helping was whether the individual who found the envelope actually mailed it or not. Results showed that people were more likely to         the application if the person in the photo was physically attractive.
The degree of       between the potential helper and the person in need is also important. For example, people are more likely to help a stranger who is from the same country rather than a foreigner. In one study, shoppers on a busy street in Scotland were more likely to help a person wearing a(n)            T-shirt than a person wearing a T-shirt printed with offensive words.
Whether a person receives help depends in part on the "worth" of the case. For example, shoppers in a supermarket were more likely to give someone.         to buy milk rather than to buy cookies, probably because milk is thought more essential for         than cookies. Passengers on a New York subway were more likely to help a man who fell to the ground if he appeared to be          rather than drunk.

I have been blessed with the opportunity in my life. It took the near-death experience of my dad to make me realize that my purpose in life is to         others. My dad suffered from leukemia(白血病) in 1998.         the pain and treatment that he put up with inspired me to be a more kind and         person. I realized life is just too           and it was time for me to make some changes — do the things in life that I wanted to do without making         why I couldn’t do them.
My dad         a bone marrow transplant(骨髓移植) operation, and after that he was able to reuse his own “cleaned” marrow, so a donor(捐献者) was not needed. That was excellent         because donors who are a match are hard to come by. That           me to become a bone marrow donor and hopefully help someone else one day. I also          money for the cancer patients. Yet, I was not satisfied with just that. I had to do more, I         blood every other month and seek opportunities to do other acts of kindness daily. The opportunity, some days, presents itself very         and some days I have to seek it out. Either way, it comes.
I would like to         one of my favorite quotes(名言)with you all:
“In an average lifetime, a person         about sixty-five thousand miles. That’s two and half times around the world. I wonder         your steps will take you. I wonder how you’ll use the rest of the         you’re given.”
I want to use my miles to create foot prints of love in this world.

Mark Twain said that "habit is habit, and not to be flung(扔) out the window by anyone, but coaxed(劝诱) downstairs a step at a time. " The chances of successfully changing negative behavior     when you make gradual changes that give you time to _   _ negative patterns for positive ones.
On any given day, countless numbers of us get out of bed and _   _ to begin to change a given behavior "today." Whether it be exercising more, drinking less, managing time       or some other change in a negative behavior, we start out with high        . In a short time, however, a vast majority of people fail and are soon doing     it was they thought they shouldn't be doing.
After considerable research, some researchers believe that behavior changes usually do not        if they start with the change itself.      , they believe that we must         a series of “stages” to adequately prepare ourselves for that        change. Once you have analyzed all the factors that        what you do ,you must decide which behavior-change technique will work best for you.
According to the psychologist Albert Ellis, most      problems and related behaviors arise from irrational (不理性的) statements that people make to       when events in their lives are different from what they would like them to be. For example, suppose after doing        on an exam, you say to yourself, “I can not believe I failed that easy exam. I am so stupid.”By changing this irrational “catastrophic” self-talk into rational,    statements about what is really going on, you can increase the        that positive behaviors will occur.
Positive self-talk might be      as follows: "I really didn't study enough for the exam. I just need to prepare for the next      ”.
Such self-talk will help you to recover quickly from       and take positive steps to correct the situation. Some other technique like purposefully       or stopping negative thoughts and refusing to dwell on (沉湎于) negative images can also spare you wasted energy, time and emotional resources and move on to positive changes.

Quietly I        out of bed and picked up the pencil and paper from the dresser, and then tiptoed into the hall.The        from the living room shone dimly. I knew Mother was downstairs still doing some sewing.
I quickly        a note asking Mother to excuse me for being so        .I didn’t want my sisters to know my        so I added a postscript, “Please don’t let anyone else see this.”
Then I        moved into my parents’bedroom and put the letter under Mother’s pillow.
The next morning when I        my bed after breakfast, I        found a return note under my pillow.Mother wrote that she loved me and        me.This became my way of        whenever I talked back or disobeyed.Mother always left a return note, but she never        our under-the-pillow messages in front of the family.Even when we were        , she never mentioned them when we sisters        our childhood.
When Mother passed away, I had to go through her personal belongings.In her desk was a bundle of notes tied with a faded ribbon.On top was a message in handwriting which read,“In the event of my death, please        these.”
I        the package and glanced at the handwriting on the bottom.To my        , I recognized my childish writing, “P.S.Please don’t let anyone else see this.Love, Edie.”I gently placed the unopened bundle in the        along with other things for the rubbish burner.“Lord,”I prayed,“Make me like        .”

How often do you let other people’s nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter,rude boss,or an insensitive employee       your day?
One day I was in a taxi and we headed    __ the airport. We were driving in the        lane when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes,slide sideways,and at the very last moment our car stopped and narrowly       the other car by just inches!The driver of the other car looked around and started       at us.
My taxi driver just       and waved at the guy. And I mean he was really      . So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!” This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call “The Law of the Garbage Truck”.
He     that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of     ,full of frustration,full of anger,and full of disappointment. As their garbage       up,they need a place to dump (倒) it and sometimesthey’ll dump it on      . Don’t take it personally. Just smile,wave,wish them well,and move on.
Believe me. You’ll be more    . Don’t take their garbage and       it to other people at work,at home,or on the streets, Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with      . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s       in your life. Roy Baumeister,a psychology researcher from Florida State University,found in his extensive research that you       bad things more often than good things in your life. You store the bad memories rather easily, and you       them more frequently.
So...Love the people who treat you right. Ignore the ones who don’t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you       it!
When you follow “The Law of the Garbage Truck”,you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by       go of the bad. Have a Garbage Free Day!Have a marvelous,garbage-free day!The seeds you plant today       the harvest you reap tomorrow.

Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a          in number. Human beings are born with this ability.        , experiments show that many animals are, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not         .However, if you remove two, the bird          leaves. This means that the bird knows the          between two and three.
Another interesting experiment showed a bird's          number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow(乌鸦)that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not          until the man left the tower. The man had an         .He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not          the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was          with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were         .It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were          able to fool the crow.
How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a          group. But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are          fooled.
It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human          is not much better than a crow's.

(2013·福建卷)第二节 完形填空
We have been driving in fog all morning, but the fog is lifting now. The little seaside villages are       , one by one. "There is my grandmother's house," I say,       across the bay to a shabby old house.
I am in Nova Scotia on a pilgrimage (朝圣) with Lise, my granddaughter, seeking roots for her, retracing (追溯)        memory for me. Lise was one of the mobile children,        from house to house in childhood. She longs for a sense of        , and so we have come to Nova Scotia where my husband and I were born and where our ancestors        for 200 years.
We soon        by the house and I tell her what it was like here, the memories        back, swift as the tide (潮水).
Suddenly, I long to walk again in the        where I was once so gloriously a child. It still        a member of the family, but has not been lived in for a while. We cannot go into the house, but I can still walk        the rooms in memory. Here, my mother        in her bedroom window and wrote in her diary. I can still see the enthusiastic family        into and out of the house. I could never have enough of being        them. However, that was long after those childhood days. Lise        attentively as I talk and then says, " So this is where I        ; where I belong. "
She has        her roots. To know where I come from is one of the great longings of the human        To be rooted is "to have an origin". We need        origin. Looking backward, we discover what is unique in us; learn the        of "I". We must all go home again—in reality or memory.
