V Cloze test.
I sat down to read under an old tree in the park. I felt my life was hopeless(無望的), for my whole world was 31.
A young boy ran up to me, out of 32. He stood right before me with his head down and said 33, "Look what I found!" In his hand was a flower, and what a poor sight! The flower was dry and 34. I gave him a small smile and then turned my eyes away so that he could take his dry flower and go off to play.
35, he sat next to my side and put the flower to his 36 and said in surprise, "It smells sweet and it's beautiful, too. That's 37 I picked it. Here, it's for you." The flower before me was dead. But I knew I must 38 it, or he might never leave. So I accepted the flower and replied, "This is just what I 39. Thank you!" Just then, for the first time I noticed that the boy could not 40 — he was blind.
Tears came down my face when I thanked him 41 picking the best one. "You're welcome," he smiled, and then ran away to 42. I sat there and wondered how he was able to learn about my pain(痛苦).
Through the eyes of a blind child, 43 I could see the problem was not with the world; the problem was me. And for all those years I myself was 44 and could not accept it.
I came to know that no one in the world is always lucky and perfect, and I just need be what I am! So I decided to see the beauty in life, and 45 every second of my life. And then I held that dry flower up to my nose and breathed in the smell of a beautiful rose.
