Once upon a time there lived an old man in a nice cottage with a large garden. The old man was seen 21 his flowers all the time. They were so well-tended that every passer-by could not but 22 for a glance.
One day a young man went by the garden. He gazed at the splendid garden, 23 in admiration at the beauty of these sceneries. Then, suddenly he 24 the old gardener was blind. 25 , the young man asked, "Why are you busy tending these flowers every day which you can"t 26 in fact?" The old man smiled and answered that " I can tell you 27 reasons. First I was a 28 when I was young, and I really like this job. Second, although I can"t see these flowers, yet I can 29 them. Third，I can smell sweetness of them. As to the last one, that"s 30 .
"Me? But you don"t know me," responded the young man 31 .
"Yeah, it"s 32 that I don"t know you. But I know everyone knows flowers and would never 33 them down. I know the beauty of my garden will get many people into a good 34 . In the meantime, it also 35 a chance to me to have a word with you here and to enjoy the happiness these flowers have brought us."
The old man"s 36 astonished me. The blind man grows flowers and 37 them as a link of minds so as to make 38 enjoy the sunshine in spring. Isn"t it one kind of happiness？
I believe every flower has 39 with which they can see the kindness of the man"s heart. The blind man grows flowers in his heart. Though 40 to see the beauty of blossoming, he surely can hear the voice of it, I suppose.

I could walk again if I wanted it badly enough．She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her．A year later，I returned to school--walking on my own．
When the Great Depression(大萧条)hit，my mom lost her job．Then I left school to support the both of us．At that moment，I was determined never to be poor again．
Over the years, I experienced various levels of business Success．But the real turning point occurred on a vocation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951．I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they charged an extra$2 for each child．That was too expensive for the average American family．I told my wife that I was going to open a motel(汽车旅馆)for families that would never charge extra for children．There were plenty of doubters at that time．
Not surprisingly，mom was one of my strongest supporters．She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style．As in any business，we experienced a lot of challenges．But with my mother’s words deeply rooted in my soul，I never doubted we could succeed．Fifteen years later，we had the largest hotel system in the world—Holiday Inn. In 1979，my company had 1759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $ 1 billion a year．
You may not have started out life in the best situations．But if you can find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself，nothing can stop you．
