When I failed in the final exam, I almost lost heart. My teacher told me a quote, __1._ goes like this; “Your future depends on many things, _2._ mostly on you.” I can’t agree _3._ (much) with this view. It’s true that our future _4._ (determine) by many things, such as opportunities and help from others, but our own attitude, determination, _5._ hard work play a more important role. In _6._ words, we are the master of our own future.

Take Abraham Lincoln for example. He was born in a poor family, and only received a _7._ (limit) education in his childhood. Yet through his painstaking efforts, he changed not only his own fate but also the history of America. _8._ to this day, Lincoln _9._ (regard) as one of the most inspiring figures in the world. _10._, I firmly believe that our future is in our own hands.

The 92-year-old, thin, calm and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o’clock, even though she is nearly blind, moved to a nursing home today.

Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the hall of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready.

As she walked slowly to the elevator, I provided a true description of her tiny room, including the old sheets that had been hung on her window. “I love it,” she said with the happiness of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.

“Mrs. Jones, you haven’t seen the room…just wait.”

“That doesn’t matter.” she replied. “Happiness is something you decide ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn’t depend on how the furniture is arranged. It’s how I arranged my mind. I have already decided to love it. It’s a decision I make every morning when I wake up. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I’ll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I’ve stored away.” She went on to explain, “Old age is like a bank account. You take what you’ve put in. So, my advice to you would be to put in a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories. Thank you for your part in filling my memory bank.” And with a smile, she said, “All my memories are happy ones.”

Mrs. Jones was always happy in the nursing home and she died at the age of 108.

1.We can infer from the passage that the author________.

A. is one of Mrs. Jones’ children

D. is the owner of the nursing home

2.Mrs. Jones was very happy when told about her room because she________.
