In the first step, we share appreciation． We acknowledge the 38 qualities of the other person． The second step -- expressing regret, is to 39 with the other person our regrets for the things we have done or said that might have caused him or her 40 ． This requires humility （谦逊）, and the 41 to let go of our own pride． In the third step, we 42 our own hurt with mindf

When I was a child, I often looked through a family album. I remember asking my mother why there was a 36 cut out of a photo of a little girl. But it was 37 that my mother did not want to talk about it.
38 I looked at the album I saw that cut - out face and 39 about it. I figured there was something 40 . When I was grown up and had almost 41 about the photo, my mother must have realized I should know her 42 . She sat me down one day and said, “That cat - up photo is 43 your Aunt Anna. She has schizophrenia（精神分裂症）.”
But why did my mother never 44 this before? I still didn’t understand. “Because people are… were… 45 of having mental illness in the family” was the 46 . But I wanted to meet Aunt Anna, and I 47 .
My mother and I traveled to the house 48 Anna lived with an Italian family. Anna looked like a question mark on legs, 49 she had lovely, clear eyes and a gentle manner. I could see the 50 to my mother. “So nice to meet you,” she said to me. “Do you have a trunk （象鼻；行李箱）？”
Did she think that I was an elephant? No, she wanted to run 51 and hide in the trunk of my car. The family that 52 her said that she always wanted to 53 .
The last time I saw Anna she was placed in a smaller old - age facility in Brooklyn.
54 Aunt Anna, I’m not the least bit ashamed of you. I’m 55 about you now for many to see, with your sweet young face showing under a pretty bow.
And you finally found that escape you were seeking.

“Why?” he asked, 38 .
“I am tired; there are no 39 for everything in the world!” I answered.
He kept 40 , seeming to be in deep thought, with a lighted cigarette in his hands. Finally he asked, “What can I do to change your 41 ?”
Looking deep into his eyes I slowly answered, “Let’s say, I want a flower on a mountain cliff and picking the flower will cause your 42 . Will you do it for me?”
He answered, “I will give you my answer tomorrow.”
I 43 the next morning, finding a piece of paper on the dining table, which read: “My dear, I would not pick that flower for you, but please allow me to 44 .”
My feeling of disappointment only 45 , but I continued reading:
“You always leave the 46 keys behind, so I have to save my legs to 47 home to open the door for you. You always like to stay indoors and I 48 that you will feel too lonely, so I have to save my mouth to tell you jokes and stories. You always stare 49 the computer and that will do nothing 50 for your eyes, so I have to save my eyes so that when we grow 51 , I can help to clip your nails. Thus, my dear, 52 I am sure that there is someone who loves you more than I do, I could not pick that flower yet, and die.”
My tears fell on the 53 and I continued reading:
“Now that you have finished reading my answer, if you are 54 , please open the front door for I am standing outside 55 your favorite bread and fresh milk.”
Love, not words, wins arguments.

Her point is that blind luck is very rare. You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you. If you’re a Chinese, you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump(树桩) for a rabbit to run out and break its neck.
A book by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman, called The Luck Factor, argues we can all make ourselves luckier. It’s not about going to a temple to burn some incense(香) hopes that the gods will give you good fortune; it’s practical advice you can follow each day.
Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies. First he divided volunteers into two groups; those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not. He gave everyone a newspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside. On average, the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds. Why? On the second page of the newspaper, a command, “Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper,” was written in big letters. The unlucky people mostly did not spot the message.
It’s easy to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper. They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity. People who are “lucky”, in fact, keep an open mind and don’t go through the same routine every day.
I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do. Like many foreigners, my plan was to teach English for one year. Seven years later, and still here, I’ve had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines. I did not dream these would have been possible. I’ve also never been sick, had an accident, got into a fight or had problems with the police. Coincidence? After reading about Professor Wiseman’s studies I think not.
As Wiseman advises, I usually trust my own judgment. Your friends and parents may give you advice based on rational thinking, but it’s important to consider how you feel about each choice you make. Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential problem.
Finally, try to turn bad luck into good. Even if you do fall down and break a leg, the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English.

When I was born, my parents immediately noticed something 36 and the doctor said I couldn"t skate. I, however, 37 trying skating in an ice rink (溜冰场), where local skaters 38 perform ice shows. I started taking group skating lessons, and performing on ice came naturally, but I have always been 39 to speak in group settings. One thing I"ve never been afraid of is 40 , though. I get nervous, but never 41 . For me, skating has been about being my personal best 42 beating others on the ice. 1 progressed through various 43 rapidly and gave my first ice performance at seven. Soon I started winning local and regional competitions. That"s 44 being on the ice has always been the one place where I can 45 express my own emotions. The ice is like home.
When I was nine years old I began training 46 . I would wake up at four o"clock in the morning six days a week and skate for five hours. Then I"d go to school. Since 47 has always been important in my family, I had no 48 but to find creative ways to fit in school studies throughout my 49 career.
After graduating from high school, I moved to Canada and set out to train full-time to give my dreams a chance at reality. In 1992 I went to compete in the Olympic Games. 50 , not my coach or even my family, ever talked to me about winning a gold medal. In fact, I wouldn"t even 51 myself to think about it. I thought that would disturb me. 52 , I went with the attitude that I wanted to enjoy the Olympic spirit. 53 the expectation of all the people, I won the gold medal and words couldn"t describe the overwhelming mixture of emotions I felt. Then I truly understood what 54 most in achieving a dream is nor to 55 it when you 1ace difficulties, but strive to make it come true.
