My friend Monty Roberts told me a story about a young boy. One day at school, the boy was asked to write a paper   36  what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.
That night he wrote a seven – paper   37  his dream of owning a farm. He put a great deal of his   38  into the paper and the next day he handed it in to his   39 . Two days later he received his paper back. On the   40  page was a large red F with a   41  that read, “See me after class.” The boy went to see the teacher after class and asked, “  42  did I receive an F?” The teacher said, “This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like   43 . Owning a farm requires a lot of money. There’s no   44  a young man could ever do it.” Then the teacher added, “  45  you will rewrite this paper, I will reconsider your   46 .”
The boy went home and   47  about it long and hard. Finally, after a week, he turned in the   48 paper, making no changes.
Monty then said, “I tell you this story because you are sitting in my farm. I   49  have that school paper over fireplace.” He added, “The   50  part of the story is that two summers ago the same schoolteacher   51  30 kids to camp out on my farm. When the teacher was   52 , he said, ‘Look Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream    53 . During those years I stole a lot of kids’ dreams.   54  you had enough courage not to   55 yours.”
Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what…

举一反三
Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.
One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up.
As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.
As he got closer he called out, “Good morning! What are you doing?”
The young man paused, looked up and replied, “Throwing starfish in the ocean.” “I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?” “The sun is up and the tide is going out, and if I don’t throw them in they’ll die.”
“But, young man, don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it. You can’t possibly make a difference!”
The young man listened politely, then he bent down, picked another starfish and threw it into the sea, past the breaking waves and said, “It made a difference for that one.”
There is something very special in each and every one of us. We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference. And if we can know that gift, we will gain through the strength of our visions the power to shape the future.
We must each find our starfish. And if we throw our starfish wisely and well, the world will be better.

parking space   37   in front of us. My taxi driver immediately put his foot on the   38  . The taxi slid a short distance quickly and   39   the other car by just inches! The driver of the black car moved his head around and started   40   at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy; and I mean he was   41   friendly, which is truly beyond my expectation.
  42   I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost  43   your car
and sent us to the   44  !” This is when my taxi driver   45   me what I now call “the Law of the Garbage Truck.”
He   46   that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, disappointment, frustration (挫败感) and   47  . As their garbage   48  , they need a place to dump (丢弃) it and sometimes they’ll dump it on   49  . Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move   50 . Don’t take it   51  .

When World War I began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X-ray facilities(设备) to help save the lives of wounded soldiers.Irene continued the work by developing X-ray facilities in military hospitals in France and Belgrum. Her services were recognised in the form of a Military’s Medal by the French government.
In 1918, Irene became her mother’s assistant at the Curie Institute. In December 1924, Frederic Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taugh him the techniques required for his work. They soon fell in love and were married in 1926. Their daughter Helene was born in 1927 and their son Pierre five years later.
Like her mother, Irene combined family and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935. Unfortunately, also like her mother, she developed leukemia because of her work with radioactivity(辐射能). Irene Joliot-Curie died from leukemia on March 17, 1956.
