Terry Fox is a heroic Canadian who     1     (remember) by many people throughout the world.

Terry was only eighteen years old when his right leg was cut off above the knee because of cancer. After     2     (see) so many people suffering from cancer while he was in the hospital, Terry decided to do something to help find a cure     3     the disease. So he planned     4     (run) across Canada in     5     hope of raising money for research. This would be a great challenge for any person,    6     a far greater challenge for a person with an artificial (人造的) leg like himself.

This unbelievable journey was called the Marathon of Hope. Terry ran about 28 miles through Canadian cities and towns every day for 143 days, then     7     (sad), he had to stop as the cancer had returned, this time in his lung.

Even though Terry died before completing his goal, this     8     (amaze) effort helped raise millions of dollars to help other cancer     9     (patient). Terry Fox showed courage and     10     (determine) to others. Still today, Terry’s dream lives on as thousands of dollars are raised each year in the annual Terry Fox Run.

A father in Houston, TX, found out his son was being bullied(虐待)at school and     1    (successful) solved the problem by befriending his son's bully.

Aubrey Fontenot said his son Jordan, 8, had been complaining(抱怨)about a bullying at school.

He talked to school several times, but it kept     2    (happen). Later, Fontenot discovered that his son's bully was being bullied by other children at school because he didn't have     3     (attract) and clean clothes or shoes. When Fontenot spoke with the boy's mother, who allowed him to reach out to her son, she told him     4     family was homeless and struggling     5    (find) stability (稳定)．Fontenot taught the boy about self-respect in a special way; much of his day     6    (spend) with him in playing and chatting. Then something wonderful     7    (appear). The boy talked a lot with him. Fontenot also set up a meeting between the boy and Jordan. Both of the boys are now friends     8    play video games together. Fontenot also founded a GoFundMe for the boy's family,     9     has raised more than $32,000 in the past few months. The boy and his family are very     10    (thank) to Fontenot.

Whitaker has been blind since birth. His parents     1     (tell) that he only had a 50% chance of survival, and he underwent 11 surgeries before two years old.

Despite being faced with the slim chance, he exhibited an extraordinary gift     2     playing the piano. By the age of 3, he     3     (write) his own songs without ever having a teacher.

Later Whitaker entered a famous music school, making him the     4     (young) person to attend the school.

Whitaker's talent caught the attention of Dr. Charles Limb, a neurologist     5     fellow musician. With the     6     (permit) of the musician and his family, Whitaker underwent MRI exams.

What Dr. Limb was surprised to find was that the     7     (genius) brain seemed to have repurposed its own disused visual cortex (皮层) to build other neurological (神经病学的) pathways. “It seems like his brain is taking that part of the tissue that’s not being stimulated by sight and using it     8     (perceive) music,” Limb told CBS News. “It's sort of borrowing that part of the brain and rewiring it to help him hear music.”

When Dr. Limb presented Whitaker with his brain scans     9     (show) how his brain lit up when he listened to music, the musician was amazed. When asked about     10     he thought his brain was illuminated (使光辉灿烂) in such a way, he simply said “I love music.”

Dick and Rick Hoyt were an unforgettable team. The father and son ran their first race together in 1977, after Rick told his dad that he wanted to participate in a 5-mile charity run     1    (hold) for a sports player who had been paralyzed in an accident. Rick is a quadriplegic, so Dick agreed to push     2    (he) in his wheelchair while he ran.

They came in next-to-last,     3     the experience opened up a whole new world for them. “Dad, when I'm running, it feels like my     4    (disable) disappears.” Rick told his dad after that race. From then on, Dick ran as many     5    (race) with his son as he could.

    6     Dick helped Rick achieve was extraordinary, especially considering the fact that when he was born, doctors had told Dick and his wife Judy that Rick had little chance of ever living a “normal” life. However, Dick and Judy worked on a mission of inclusion for Rick in school, community, sports, and the workplace. Their tireless efforts eventually     7    (lead) to Rick graduating from Boston University     8     a degree in Special Education in 1993.

Dick Hoyt, this loving father passed away     9    (peaceful) in his sleep. Later, Rick     10    (ask) what he would give his father if he could give him one thing, and Rick responded，“The thing I'd most like is for my dad to sit in the chair and I would push him for once.”

One of my strongest childhood     1     (memory) is sitting in the back of the car with a map. On long journeys,     2     was my job to trace our route with my finger and call out directions even though my parents knew exactly     3     we were going. I can remember that magical feeling of power and     4     (responsible), as if somehow I was the one in control.

Understanding a map creates a new sort of relationship with the outdoors. If you can learn to do that     5     an early age, it will carry through the rest of your life. Studies have shown that if you can get someone     6     (interest) in outdoor activities before the age of 14, it will stay with them. For me, a map is a passport to getting outside.

Running your finger along the place names on a map     7     (be) a journey through history as well as geography. Map reading can also be a brilliant way     8     (entertain) children and build their confidence. Naturally, they     9     (strike) by the relationship between the world and them. I     10     (sincere) hope many of us will be taking with us a newfound love of getting out and about in the countryside.

A robot named Tony was sent to Claire’s house     1     (test) out. He looked like a real man, tall and handsome with smooth hair     2     a deep voice. Not only did he look like a human, but he     3     (behave) like a real man. He did everything to comfort Claire. He prepared breakfast in     4     morning. He even tried to help Claire get     5     (dress), which made Claire feel embarrassed. When he heard that Claire was not     6     (satisfy) with her house, he began to improve it. When he learned that Claire was jealous of another lady, he helped to improve     7     (she) makeup and make Gladys and her friends admire Claire by     8     (hold) a party at home.

Tony was only a robot, but he could do and think     9     (exact) like a real man. He even fell in love with his hostess, Claire, near the end of the test.     10     an excellent science fiction it is!

One summer afternoon, a group of recent college graduates decided to visit their favorite professor at his home. The grads    1    (be) out of school for about a year and they were each making their attempt into the so-called “real world” and dealing with all of the frustrations and    2    (confuse) that come with it.

Over the course of the afternoon, the grads complained    3     their professor about how difficult life was after school. They complained about the long hours, the    4    (demand) bosses, the competitive job market, and    5    all of them seemed to talk about or care about was money, money, money.

After a while, the professor got up and made some coffee. He got out six cups, one for each student. Three of them were cheap disposable cups and the other three    6    (make) of his nicest porcelain. He then invited everyone to get up and help    7    (they).

Within seconds the    8    (argue) had already begun. “Wait, why do you get that cup?” “No. let me have it. I drove here “No way, I got here first, go get your own.” The students laughed and    9    (gentle) chided each other over who got to drink what out of what. A silent competition among friends.

When the kids finally sat back down the professor smiled and said, “You see? This is your problem. You are all arguing over who gets    10    (drink) out of the nice cups when all you really wanted was the coffee.”

Every writer dreams of seeing their words in print. So when the response from a publisher comes, the writer     1     (eager) opens and reads it. Their hearts sink when they reach the final sentence “We regret to inform you...”,    2     are the words that every writer fears receiving. They may have given up their free time for years to write their life's work, yet this is often not enough. Success rarely happens overnight. A lot of highly     3     (success) writers have previously faced rejection, one of whom is J.K. Rowling.

Rowling had spent seven years     4     (write) her first book, surviving on very little money. When she finally finished the book, she received comments from publishers along the lines of “too difficult for children”, “too long”, “Children would not be interested in it”. However, she persevered. She     5     (stick) the rejection letter on her kitchen wall, knowing that it was quite normal for writers     6     (reject). “I was not going to give up     7     every single publisher turned me down,” she later posted. After a total of twelve rejections, one publisher finally agreed to print 500     8     (copy) of her book, and as we know, Harry Potter became a global success, with over 400 million books     9     (sell) and translated into more than 70 different languages.

From Rowling's story we can see while talent, effort and luck play a part in our success, perseverance is     10     key.
