Lucy Flores spends her days teaching preschool students how to read and write. After ____121____, the 23-year-old girl goes home and does the same for her 43-year-old dad, Luciano Flores. “I was thinking to myself. ‘Since I can teach these ____122____ to read and write, why can't I teach my father that?’ ____123____, we started about four months ago,” says Flores.
Growing up in Mexico, Luciano's family had ____124____ resources. The school he ____125____ didn't have much to spare, either. So, after about first grade, he ____126____ going to class and started working to ____127____ his family. He began a ____128____ in construction he continues to this day.

I love football. I started playing when I was nine years old, and football got me through difficult periods. It helped make me who I am today. And even though I did not ____141____ the National Football League (NFL), I sometimes think I got more from ____142____ that dream, but not realizing it.
My romance with football started when my dad ____143____ me, kicking and screaming, to join a league. I had no ____144____ to be there. I was naturally ____145____ and the smallest kid by far. ____146____ turned to awe when I met my coach, Jim Graham, a huge and strong guy. And he was really ____147____ and old-fashioned.
Coach Graham used to push me ____148____. I remember one practice ____149____. “You’re doing it all wrong, Pausch. Go back! Do it again!” I tried to do what he wanted. It wasn’t enough. “You _____150_____ me, Pausch! Go to do push-ups after _____151_____!”
When I was finally _____152_____, one of the _____153_____ coaches came up to me. “Coach Graham pushed you pretty hard, didn’t he?” he said.
“That’s a good thing,” the assistant told me. “When you’re doing badly and nobody says anything to you anymore, that means they’ve _____154_____ you.”
That _____155_____ has influenced my whole life. When you see yourself doing something badly and nobody’s willing to tell you anymore, that’s a bad place to be. You may not want to hear it, but your _____156_____ are often the ones telling you they still love you and care about you, and want to make you _____157_____.
When Coach Graham first got hold of me, I was such a weak kid with no _____158_____ and no physical strength. But he made me realize that if I work hard enough, there will be things I can do _____159_____ that I can’t do today. Even now, having just turned forty-seven, I can give you a three-point stance that any NFL lineman would be _____160_____ of. I really felt grateful to Coach Graham for what he had done to me, though it surely didn’t feel good at that time to do so many push-ups after practice.
