Once, it was in the middle of a personal development workshop. One of the people present stood up and began 36 out diamond rings to each of the one hundred people in the room.
He was a 37 jeweler, he said, and he had made these expensive 38 as gifts to open people’s eyes to the abundance(富裕) of life.
On his fifth birthday, the man 39 , his uncle had taken him to a candy (糖果) 40 and told him that he could take 41 he wanted, and as much as he wanted. 42 he was very pleased and decided to 43 something he liked best.

The simplest way to say it is this: I believe in my mother. My 41 began when I was just a kid. I 42 becoming a doctor.
My mother was a worker. Through her work, she observed that 43 people spent a lot more time reading than they 44 watching television. She announced that my brother and I
45 watch two to three TV programs during the week. With our free time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and then 46 her written book reports.
