One evening my father and I went to see a circus(馬戲). A family was standing in front of us ,__56__ for tickets.

The family had eight children. Their clothes were not __57__, but they were clean. They were talking about the clowns and elephants excitedly.

“I want __58__ tickets, eight for children and two for adults,” said the father to the ticket lady.

The ticket lady told him the __59__. When he heard that, the man couldn’t believe his __60__. He asked again, “How much?”

The ticket lady spoke again. The father looked sad. Clearly, he didn’t have __61__ money.

My dad took a $20 bill and __62__ it on the ground. Then he said to the man, “Sir, this bill fell out of your pocket.”

The man knew __63__ was going on. He looked into my dad’s eyes and took the __64__. “Thank you, thank you, sir. This __65__ means a lot to me and my family.”

We didn’t go to the circus that night, but we didn’t feel sorry for it at all.

Life is not easy, so I’d like to say “When anything happens, believe in yourself.”

When I was 14, I was too ???? to talk to anyone. My classmates often???? me. I was sad but could do nothing. Later,???? happened. It changed my life.

It was an English speech（演講）contest. My mother asked me to take part in it. What a terrible idea! It meant I had to ???? in front of all the teachers and students of my school!“Come on, boy. Believe in yourself. You are sure to ??? . ”Then, Mother and I talked about many different topics. At last I? ?? ? the topic“Believe in yourself”. I tried my best to remember all the speech and ???? it over 100 times. With my mother’s great love, I did well in the contest. I could hardly believe my ???? when the news came that I had won the first place. I heard the???? ? from the teachers and students. Those classmates who once ???? ? on me, now all said “Congratulations!”to me. My mother hugged me and cried excitedly.

Since then, everything has changed for me. When I do anything, I try to tell myself to be sure and I will find myself.

IMAGINE a life without arms or legs! You can’t hold anyone in your   26  . You can’t walk anywhere with your feet. How would you last a day like that? Would you   27   at yourself in the mirror like Nick Vujicic, the 29-year-old Australian?

Nick was born without limbs（四肢）, so life was not   28   for him. At school many students played jokes on him   29   he looked different from everyone else. He was refused to be   30   friends, so he always felt   31  . However, he faced that bravely. He   32   to type and write with two toes（腳趾）at the age of six, and he could   33   surf and play golf. In college, he achieved great success and was among the   34   students in the studies. And he decided on   35   to do later in his life—to encourage others to work hard for their dreams.

Now Nick is one of the most popular   36   in the world. He travels to many countries and gives speeches about his story   37   difficulties. “Living life fully is about looking at what you   38  , not what you don’t have.” he said. His   39   encourages millions of people.

 “I tell people to keep on getting up when they   40   and to always love themselves,” he said. “If I can encourage just one person, then my job in this life is done.”
