I was regularly chosen last for a baseball team when school children were organizing a __37 . I never learned how to ice skate. It took me forever to learn to 38 a bike, and my knees and elbows were always injured in the process. Even so, I was a 39 boy and was well liked by my peers throughout elementary school.
The most 40 time came when I began high school. I 41 up for the cross-country track and field team. My 42 had always been poor, and a slight push would send me flying to the dirt. Over the first few days other runners noticed my poor pace and would knock me __43__ balance as they lapped me 4 / 17

One day in early October, we had unexpected snow and freezing rain. The track team was allowed to 48 indoors. I borrowed the stopwatch from the coach and 49 my time on the track. As the other kids exercised in the gym, they couldn’t help but notice the one __50__ runner dragging through freezing rain on the snow-covered track.
The next week, the weather returned to normal, and outdoor training continued. The harassment, 51 , did not. Each time a member of the track team passed me, he would offer a few words of 52 .
“Keep going, pal.”
“Don’t give up, bro.”
“You can do it, buddy.”
At the end of that month, I was voted “athlete of the month” and was presented with a certificate. I earned their 53 .

As I rushed among the tables, suddenly, a 36 asked if I could mind a child．I was quite 37 but I could tell the man was quite desperate．So I had to make a 38 with him that if he wanted his son to stay and wait for him, he had to 39 something in the shop．
This was quite 40 for the man to do; I could 41 he was quite poor by the 42 he was dressed．It looked as if he had tried to come in his 43 clothes．But they still looked a bit old and worn out 44 he had often worn them, just to make himself look best．Looking down I could see his 45
were also a bit tom and the heels were in a terrible state．I thought he was going for a job interview．In the end he bought a small box of 46 for his little son and seated him down in the corner．I could tell the boy was feeling down and only could 47 with a bit of cheering up．
Seeing that the kid sat there for quite a while, I was a bit 48 as the poor little kid was sitting 49 his own．People watched him and some kids even came over to pick on him．I was 50 to see one of them even knocked his cookies off the table．He quickly went and got them back without saying a word．I was hoping his father would 51 up and come back for his son's 52 . At closing time, the only person left was the little boy．After a while, the father finally came in with a tiresome look．I 53 he didn't get any job．As they were leaving, I offered the kid a little cake, but the man rejected it．I 54 he felt as if I had just abused him．Of course I didn't mean to．But I could understand why he

I was nineteen years old the first time I saw my own true character.
My trip to and from work each day included a ten-minute walk through the
10 / 17
heart of downtown, where the 36 often gathered. Like most busy citizens, I learned to 37 those nameless faces. When it came to homeless beggars, my 38 life experience had led me to one 39 that they are on the street because they choose to be, probably due to alcohol or drugs.
It was an extremely cold day. When I passed the groups of beggars as usual, I heard a shaky voice target me.
“Spare some change?” he asked.
I didn’t even 40 looking up at his nameless face. I briefly 41 him walking into a liquor store and buying whiskey with the money we spared him. Like most teenagers, it took me only moments to 42 him.
“I have no money on me,” I said quickly
Looking back now, I feel as if God had set out that day to teach me a lesson. And God 43 . Just a few feet past him, I managed to find the only ice patch on the sidewalk. I 44 and landed heavily on my right knee. The 45 was almost killing me as I tried to get up. Then I heard a shaky voice only inches above me.
“Are you all right?” he asked.
I knew immediately this was the man I had just rushed past. Even in pain, I
11 / 17
46 took a quick moment to sniff for the smell of alcohol on his breath. There was none. He wasn’t 47 . I saw the 48 in his eyes.
I 49 to get to my feet. He held my arm as I walked difficultly to the nearby bus stop.
“My name is Mike,” he said. “That’s quite a fall you took, and you really need to get it checked by a doctor,” he said with deep 50 . “This bus goes past the hospital,” I said.
Mike paused, and a look of sudden 51 crossed his face. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small cup. He took out all the change and held it out toward me.
“I think there’s just enough here for you to take the bus,” he said,
I was highly embarrassed as I remember my 52 . I reached for my purse and took out my change. At least ten dollars. I offered Mike all my change.
“Thank you and take care of yourself,” I said. Both of us knew that few minutes earlier I couldn’t have 53 what happened to him.
Mike held his cup tightly, 54 it as if it were the first gift he had ever received.

I had been playing hockey（冰球）for about 10 years. I was always the one sitting at the end of the bench, and 36 got into a game. I went to all the 37 and showed up even when it was so 38 that your ‘breath froze’ and when the other players had decided to stay home. I felt I had 39 enough and thought of quitting.
I finally decided to 40 the news to my mom that I was leaving the team. My mom may have looked like a tiny and quiet lady but on 41 my
14 / 17
words, she said, “Remember, ‘A quitter never wins and a winner never quits.’ Your mother didn’t raise 42 , so think about yourself in a 43 way and see yourself as a winner!” So I worked harder than ever at getting in better shape, 44 my shot accuracy and changing my 45 .
Once in a match, we 46 our first game badly. What’s worse, one of our best players got hurt. I was sitting at my 47 place, at the end of the bench, when the coach came over and told me I was going 48 . I was nervous, excited and terrified all at the same time.
The opposing team was fast and I had to admit I was a little 49 . But my mom’s words 50 out in my head like a church bell. Instead of being afraid, I was “pumped” and I very quickly found that all my 51 work was paying off. I was as fast a skater as anyone else on the ice, and I seemed to get the 52 to score. The crowd went quiet. All the time I spent on the ice when everyone had gone home had
53 me for this moment.
Won! I won!
The lesson I learned from my mom’s 54 has stayed with me over the years. I hear them whenever I am faced with a challenge, or whenever I
55 myself.
