3．Have you ever not wanted to do something so badly？Well，that's how I （41）C about joining Madcaps，a mothers and daughters'club assisting philanthropies（慈善事業(yè)）．（42）B，my feeling changed finally．Now I believe if you adopt a（n） （43）A attitude，you might just（44）C enjoying it．
Six months ago，my mom told me the club asked us to work as （45）B at Saint Vincent de Paul Homeless shelter．That meant I had to （46）D in the dirty homeless shelter for at least 20hours．
The first time we went there，a lady led us to the kitchen where we（47）A my five fellow Madcaps classmates-they also wore the same mark．Since I'm usually （48）B awkward，I had never talked with any of them earlier．Worse still，my mom was asked to help outside the kitchen，leaving me totally （49）C to serve food with them．Soon large numbers of homeless families （50）D in like rushing river．A little girl，around 5years old，walked up to me．I （51）C her a cold sandwich．She took it and joined her family quickly．As she walked away，I （52）A she was wearing a coat，clearly too big for her，hanging （53）D on her thin body，and couldn't help thinking how much I had （54）Awith her．It suddenly struck me that how （55）B I am．
After that moment I had a （56）D of heart．Now I love Madcaps and don't miss one meeting．I have（57）Cawkwardness when communicating and have many friends．And this year I am sure I will do more than the （58）B 20hours of philanthropies．
So that is how I have made a（59）A by doing one thing I don't want to do．If you have an open （60）C about things，you can accomplish more and become a well-rounded person．

2．If you want to stand out，there is no alternative but hard work．
Once a boy in （41）Bclothes full of patches ran to ask a successful building contractor （承包商） in a construction site，"How could I become as （42）Cas you when I grow up？"
With a （43）Aat the boy，the contractor replied，"There is a story about three diggers．The first digger liked holding a spade without doing anything but saying that he wanted to be a（n）（44）Cin the future．The second always liked （45）Dabout the work and his low（46）B．The third digger liked（47）Adevoting himself to digging．Later，the first was still holding his spade in the （48）Cplace and the second took an excuse for early（49）B．Only the third became a boss．Do you understand the （50）Cof this story？Just go to buy a （51）Bshirt and work hard．"
The little boy was（52）A．So he asked the contractor to explain further．（53）Dthe working builders，the contractor replied，"Look at my workers!I can't remember all their names，and even I have no（54）Aof some of them．Most of them wear blue shirts．But if you look（55）C，you will notice a sunburned man in red．He seems to be working harder than others．He is always the first one to work while the last one to leave．It is exactly his red shirt that makes him （56）A．Soon he will be  （57）Dto be my assistant．You know，that is also how I got （58）BI am now．I worked hard and wore a striped shirt．My boss （59）Dme．I also became a boss eventually．"

15．I don't know what it is．No matter（61）when I go to a post office and no matter where the post office is，I always find（62）myself （me） standing in line behind someone who has a lot of business to do．
One day，I had to buy a couple of stamps，but I had to wait behind an old lady who took fifteen minutes（63）to finish （finish） a form that a child could do in one minute．（64）Feeling （ feel） that I could not stand waiting in such a line any longer，I decided to join（65）anotherone．It seemed twice as long as the first line，（66）but at least it was moving．It turned out to be the worst choice I had ever made．As soon as I （67）lost（lose）my place in the first line，the one I joined slowed to a stop．I had no choice（68）to wait （wait） behind a schoolboy who was taking half an hour to choose a new set of postcards．At last it was my turn．I nearly jumped for joy．Then the clerk behind （69）the counter，a middle-aged fat guy，stood up，pushed forward a printed sign saying"Position Closed"and （70）said （say） without a smile，"Sorry，going to lunch．"

14．Learning to set goals plays an important role as your child starts to gain independence．However，setting goals doesn't come naturally to your child，so helping him to learn the process should probably be one of your goals．
Explain the word"goal"．Your child may know what a goal is when it comes to soccer，but he may not understand what it means in everyday life．（36）E
Listen to your child．Ideally，you want your child to be able to decide for himself what his goals are．（37）C Let him talk about what he thinks he does well and what he thinks needs to improve．If he's stuck，you can provide some examples of your own personal goals．
Help keep goals achievable．Don't throw cold water on your child．（38）GFor example，if your child wants to be a champion swimmer，but can't swim an entire lap of the pool yet，you can suggest he start by making that his first goal．
（39）BHelp your child write down his goals in an easy-to-follow form．Being able to see and check off the steps on the way to his goal is key in keeping him motivated．A really simple way is to have your child draw a ladder on a piece of paper，writing his goal at the top and each step to that goal on the rungs （橫木）．（40）D

A．Change goals every so often．
B．Make a visual goal reminder．
C．Don't always tell him what you think．
D．He's climbing to the top as he gets closer lo his goal．
E．You can take sports as example to help explain it to him．
F．Once he has set up a goal，he may find it very difficult to achieve it．
G．When a goal is beyond his reach，help him break it down into smaller pieces．
