It was then that I learned how 1  it is to have a passion in life.‎ ‎   That day I went home in Mom’s car. When Mom   2 at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed  3  rags(破旧衣服). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me,  4  I had seen many people like him before. Those people usually looked unhappy and hopeless. But this man was  5  in some way. He was not sitting down with a   6  expression. Instead, he had a   7  in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious thing he had. “Mom, why does that man have a radio though he’s   8  ?” I asked ‎“He   9   it,” she replied.‎ ‎“But why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He   10  something that he didn’t need.” “Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important”‎ That man must care so  11 about music that he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that 12  is the key to life.‎ Since then, I am always thinking of  13  is truly important in life. A home, a meal, clothes — these things are only  14 of the life. What we often forget is that we all need a joy, a light in a   15 day. We all need a passion which gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.‎ ‎(    )1.

He removed the lid (盖子) and   6  the wonderful things to the visitors.‎ Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don’t dig all the way through Earth, look at what    we’ve  7   along the way!”‎ Their goal was far too ambitious (有雄心的), but it did cause them   8   . And that is what a goal is    9   — to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen.‎ But not every goal will be fully    1045   . Not every job will end   11   . Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. Not every    12    will be realized. But    13    you fall short of aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I’ve found along the way! Look at the    14  things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!”‎ It is in the digging that    15   is lived.

It seemed as if it needed   1   , but little did I know it would help me too.   ‎ During my first visit I helped to polish (擦光) some ladies’ nails . One woman asked me many questions. After she was satisfied with my   2   , she started to share some of her hidden   3   . By listening to her, I realized I had helped her a lot: she looked    4    from some of her past pains. ‎ When she was finished, she told me something that   5   me to visit the nursing home every week. She said, “You’re the only person I was able to tell this to. The other volunteers are too busy to  6  me. You’ll come back next week, right？” After 7 blowing on her newly coated nails(指甲), I smiled and  8   , “Yes, I’ll see you next Friday.” ‎ That day, I was gladdened by the  9   that I had helped somebody. I realized an action as   10 as listening became something much more.‎ During every second I spent there, I realized how much of a difference my  11  could have on the lives of others. The hardest part of living there is that it breaks the human  12  between those in today’s society and the nursing home. ‎ Every moment I spend chatting is a chance to   13    that connection again, to share their worries, and to shape someone’s life. In turn, that   14  also shapes me. I not only learn about life and experiences outside of school, but also receive the   15 of being part of this process – this connection between humans.  ‎ ‎(  )1.
