Her car had 37 down and at the moment she 38 needed a ride. Wet to the skin, she decided to flag down the next 39 . A young white man stopped to help her---generally unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960s. The man 40 her to safety in his car, and hired a taxicab(a kind of car) for her.

The rain 45 wet all over not only my clothes but my spirits. Then you 46 along. Because of you, I was 47 to make it to my dying husband’s bedside just before he passed away.

There’s always someone who’s a bit 47 . The only solution is to reach 48 and measure against what Warren Buffett calls your own inner yardstick. There is no more 49 measure for comparison than who your were yesterday, last week or last decade, when you were at your 50 .‎ Nothing useful ever comes from comparison to others. Either you see yourself as better than someone and you get 51 , or you see someone else as better than you and you feel like all your hard work is for 52 . It is a fool’s game. Not one of us is exactly 53 . The only direct and honest comparison is 54 yourself. Everything else is apples to oranges.‎ My opinion is that you are only 55 to compare yourself to someone else if their life 56 is the same as your own. Good luck finding that 57 . And one thing is for sure. No matter how hard you work and how dedicated（埋头苦干的）you are, there will always be someone who can run a little faster, jump a little higher, score a little better or look a little nicer in a swimsuit. And if there’s not, you can 58 someone is coming up fast 59 you. So how can you always win in life? Become your best 60 .‎ Having an image of your most recent past limits is the perfect thing to 61 you to the next level. If you ran 7 flights of stairs yesterday, then do 8 today. Who 62 if the guy next to you did 15? It doesn’t make a bit of 63 . You are a more 64 person today than you were yesterday. Your own 65 is all you need.‎ ‎46.

This is your fault, __48__ now, we may __49__ our flight.” I didn’t say that out loud, __50__. He already knew how I felt.‎ The experience showed I had a hard time accepting __51__. But what do you think of me? Psychologists think that the best way to assess ourselves is __52__ the eyes of others. We often don’t recognize that we’ve done wrong.‎ Oh, and that missing suitcase? We went home __53__ in the taxi, picked it up, returned to the airport and made it through with minutes to __54__.‎ Later, while walking along Broadway, I noted how __55__ I was.

It’s like looking at the tiled（铺瓦的）ceiling and concentrating on the space where one tile is 36 .‎ Once I heard a bald man said, “whenever I enter a room 37 I see is hair.” Once you’ve 38 what your missing tile is, explore whether acquiring it will 39 make you happy. Then do one of the three things: get it, replace it with a different 40 , or forget about it and 41 the tiles in your life that are not missing. ‎ ‎ We all know people who have a relatively 42 life, yet are essentially unhappy while people who have suffered a great deal but 43 remain happy.‎ ‎ The first 44 is gratitude. All happy people are 45 . Ungrateful people cannot be happy. We tend to think that being unhappy leads people to 46 , but it’s truer to say that complaining leads to people becoming unhappy.‎ ‎ The second secret is 47 that happiness is a byproduct of something else. The most obvious 48 are those pursuit that give our lives purpose — anything 49 studying insects to playing baseball. The more passions we have, the more happiness we are 50 to experience.‎ Finally, the belief that something permanent goes beyond us and that our 51 has some larger meaning can help us to feel happier. We ‎52 a spiritual faith, or a philosophy, it should 53 this truth: if you choose to find the ‎54 in every situation, you will be blessed, and if you choose to find the awful, you will be cursed. As with happiness itself, this is 55 your decision to make.‎ ‎36. A、different B、missing C、short D、broken ‎37. A、nothing B、none C、all D、anything ‎38. A、determined B、predicted C、assumed D、imagined ‎39.
