“Mom, I don’t like you,” my two-year-old son said.
“Okay…is that because you love me?” I asked.
“No, you’re not lovely.”
That night, as I washed my face, I 1 a little longer in the mirror—not because I was hurt by his 2 , but because I noticed there was no light in my eyes.
I took out a pen and started writing a list—a list to 3 myself; a list to put sparkles(闪烁的光、亮点)back into my eyes. I once made many lists but seldom accomplished(完成)anything. This time would be 4 !
The first goal on my list I wanted to achieve was joining a Polar Plunge to raise money for the Special Olympics. On that day, when I 5 into my 1980s workout clothes, Jack smiled, “Mom, you look pretty.” Maybe, just maybe some light 6 my eyes.
When coming out of the cold lake, I felt happy and proud. I kept screaming, “I made it!” But one of the most exciting parts of the day was when I stood in front of my 7 , which was taped on the refrigerator door. I ticked item number one. With that, I began to take back my life.
Everyone taking part in the Polar Plunge received a shirt. Whenever I wore it, Jack asked, “Is that your Polar Plunge clothing?” I answered proudly, “Yes!” “I want to do that too.” I was happy he remembered I jumped into a     8 lake, and that he wanted to do activities with me.
With each 9 crossed off the list, piece of myself is 10 . Not only am I showing my family it’s important to dream, but I’m showing myself that I’m worth it.

I’m not someone who likes to play games. But last April, I heard some of my classmates talking about the Rubik’s Cube (魔方). I saw a friend solve this puzzle very 31 , which really surprised me.

However, during my high school years, I 41 . Maybe it was when I decided to try for the lead in Beauty and the Beast. I would have to memorize lines and movements, but I took the chance that I might fail. On the day of practice, my heart was pounding; my hands were 42 badly when I got up to sing. But when I opened my mouth, the sound was loud and 43 . I reached for the high notes that sometimes were beyond my reach, which made me very 44 . I was trying to do my best even though I might fail.

Three years ago, I broke my back when I fell from my bike. The 46 stopped me from trying out for basketball. But I didn’t give up. The first day my doctor 47 me to do any physical activity, I started running with my mom. No stop-watches. No cheering crowds. I didn’t make the basketball team, but I didn’t fail, either.

On a Saturday afternoon, you find most kids outside playing games. Kids are made for the 51 , with their endless energy and the easy way in which they make friends. It’s not 52 for Kameron, an ordinary, fun-loving 7-year-old girl who loves to draw out the world’s longest hopscotch(跳格子) on the sidewalk. But in between 53 , Kameron takes time to do something special for her 54 neighbors whose children have long since left home.
Kameron first started waving to them. Most of them smiled back. Then Kameron decided that some of them needed a little 55 . So she ran home, took her violin and made the rounds. “Can I play you a song?” she asked, after knocking on the door.

Michael Jordan is widely considered to be the greatest basketball player of all time. In fact, for more than a decade, he was the 61 of the NBA．
And then he made the decision: a career 62 . How could a man, at the peak of his success, walk away from success? Not only did he walk away from his previous success, but he did the unthinkable. He risked his 63 talent by trying to play baseball, a sport he hadn’t played for many years.
Was it ego? Was it boredom? No. It was psychological. It was the mindset he buried in his soul after being cutting from his basketball team when in high school.
To understand why he 64 everything, let’s take a look into the mindset of Michael Jordan.
“I’ve missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve 65 again and again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
As Carol Dweck, author of Mindset, would say, genetics may determine the starting line, but hard work determines the 66 line.
Jordan may have become bored with basketball. He may have desired another challenge. However, he wouldn’t have risked everything if he honestly didn’t believe hard work 67 all.
Coach John Wooden felt the same way. He 68 discussed wins and losses in his pregame speech. Instead, he focused on 69 his players were willing to give 100 percent and leave everything on the court. He knew by focusing on the process, things would change for the 70 . Ten national championships later proved his theory of hard work.

I had offered to watch my 3-year-old daughter, so that my wife could go out with a friend. I was getting some work done in my study while she appeared to be having a good time in the other room. No problem, I figured. But then it got a little too 71 and I shouted, “What are you doing?” No answer. I 72 my question and heard her say, “Oh, … nothing.” Nothing?
I got up from my desk and ran out into the living room, where I saw her running across the hall. I followed and watched her as her little behind (屁股) made a quick 73 into the bathroom. I had her 74 ! I told her to turn around. She refused. I pulled out my big Daddy voice, “Young lady,” I said, “turn around!”
75 , she turned toward me. In her hand was what was left of my wife’s new lipstick, and every square inch of her face was 76 with bright red! As she looked up at me with fearful eyes, I heard every voice that had been shouted to me as a child: How could you…You should know…How many times have you been 77 …What a bad thing to do …It was just a matter of my picking out which old words I was going to use on her so that she would know what a bad girl she had been. But before I could let loose (发火), I looked down at the sweater on her. In big letters it said, “I’m A PERFECT LITTLE ANGEL!” I looked back up into her eyes and, instead of seeing a bad girl who didn’t listen, I saw a little angel full of 78 that I had come dangerously close to destroying. “My dear, let’s take a picture so that Mummy can see how 79 you look.” I took the picture and thanked God that I didn’t 80 the chance to prove what a perfect little angel he had given me.

What It Takes to Put Your Phone Away
According to the iPhone’s Screen Time, my typical daily phone activity includes 90 minutes of texting, one hour of e-mail, and yet another hour of social media. And there are also about seventy “pickups”, meaning that I 81 my phone about four times per hour. I carry my phone around with me as if it were a(n) 82 .
I have tried all sorts of things to look at screens 83 : I don’t get push notifications (推送通知). I use an app called Freedom to block social media for much of the workday. But they don’t seem to work.
The Georgetown computer-science professor Cal Newport argues that we must establish a “philosophy of technology use.” He recommends a month-long digital detox (脱瘾), in which a person takes a(n) 84 from all optional technologies. When it’s over, the digital minimalist (极简主义者) slowly reintroduces these technologies.
Newport defines a digital minimalist as someone who drops “low-quality activities like mindless phone swiping and halfhearted binge-watching (刷剧).” They are 85 high-value leisure activities such as board games, book clubs, and learning to “fix or build something every week.”
At the beginning of March, I decided to try to follow Newport’s advice. I adjusted the home-computer settings to cut my social media 86 to 15 minutes. And I changed my Freedom settings to 87 Twitter and Instagram altogether. I left my phone in the apartment whenever I walked my dog.
During the first few days of my internet decluttering (清理), I found myself compulsively (强迫性地) checking my unchanged in-box and already-read text messages—attempting, as if bewitched (着迷的), to see 88 information there. Soon I got used to the dull, pleasant blankness. One afternoon, I lay on my couch and felt an influx of mental 89 that was both disturbing and pleasurable. I didn’t want to learn how to fix or build anything, or start a book club. I wanted to experience myself as soft and loose and purposeless.
On the first day of April, I took stock of my digital experiment. I had not become a different, better person. But I had become more 90 of why I use technology, and how it meets my needs. I loosened my home-computer settings on social media, back to 45 daily minutes. I considered my Freedom parameters, which I had already learned to break, and let them be.
81．A．charge B．check C．drop D．lift
82．A．litter bin B．oxygen tank C．travelling bag D．treasure box
83．A．less carefully B．more often C．less often D．more carefully

One of the easiest things in the world is to become a fault-finder. However, life can be 91 when you are not busy finding fault with it.
Several years ago I received a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always bothered by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her, and 92 was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really boring person.
Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 93 . Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost 94 to deal with was that the day before the accident, Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her choice of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 95 . It wasn’t until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became aware of her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to 96 everything so harshly (刻薄). She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her life as well.
Perhaps most of us aren’t as extreme at fault-finding, 97 when we’re honest, we can be sharply critical of the world. I’m not suggesting you ignore problems, or that you 98 things are better than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are— 99 most of the time, and especially when it’s not a really big deal.
Train yourself to “bite your tongue”, and with a little 100 , you’ll get really good at letting things go. And when you do, you’ll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.
