One day, my father and I were watching a dance reality show. For some reasons, I disliked one of the dancers from the very beginning of the show.
Unknowingly, I kept finding his _________ and criticizing (批评) his dance moves. _________, my father was watching the _________ with a smile all the time. When the performance ended, he looked at me and asked softly, “How much do you _________ about the dance competition, Martha?”
“No, Dad, not at all,” I said.
“Then how do you know that he is a _________ dancer?” he asked still with a smile.
“Just _________ the other dancers! He is not as good as them,” I said.
“But he is among the final 10 competitors who were carefully _________. How can he be bad? Maybe his dance is of no _________ to you, but that doesn’t mean you can _________ or even criticize his creativity.’’
“Why not?” I asked carelessly.
“Because criticizing someone or something __________ nothing but negativity around you. Instead of criticizing something you don’t like, you should spend your time __________ something you like, which will spread __________ thoughts,” my father said.
So choose __________! Never criticize anyone or anything unless you have a good __________ of it. This is the most __________ advice my father has ever given me.
