One afternoon many years ago, I parked my car by the street, waiting to_______ my mother from work.   

As I looked outside the car window to my right, there was a small park where I saw a little boy, around two years old, running freely on the grass as his mother _______ from a short distance. The boy had a big smile on his face as if he had just been _______ from some sort of prison. The boy would then fall to the grass, get up, and without hesitation or without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could, again, still with a smile on his face, _______ nothing had happened.

Actually, with kids, when they fall down, they don’t think of their falling down as failure; _______, they treat it as a learning experience. They _______ try and try again until they succeed. While I was _______ by the boy’s persistence, I was equally touched by the manner in which he ran. With each _______, he looked so confident and so natural. No _______ of fear, nervousness, or of being discouraged — as if he didn’t give a care about the world around him.

His only aim was to run freely and to do it as effectively as he could. He was just being a child — being just himself completely in the moment. He was not looking for approval or was not worrying about ________ someone was watching or not. He wasn’t ________ about being judged. He didn’t seem to be ________ by the fact that maybe someone would see him fall and that it would be ________ if he did fall. No, all that ________ to him was to accomplish the task or activity at hand to the best of his ability — to run and to feel the experience of running fully and freely. I learned a lot from that ________ and experience, and have successfully brought that lesson with me in my many pursuits in life.

________, I’ve always believed that in each of us is a little child with absolute courage, a child that has the ability to run freely without a care for anything external（外在的）. I believe that courageous part of us — that courageous child ________ us all, will always be with us ________ we live. We only need to allow it to emerge more fully. We only need to once again ________ that child within us — and give that child permission to run freely, just like that boy in the ________.

Christmas 2021 was shaping up to be a heart breaker for Melanie Lee. A few weeks earlier, her 33-year-old son had ______ his battle with a long illness. Then her 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe ______ and she couldn't pay for it to be fixed. Lee, who was quite ______, told CNN, “Now I don't have my baby. Now I don't have transportation.”

On Christmas morning, Eliot Middleton, the ______ of a barbecue restaurant, showed up at Lee's home with a ______.

“I had no idea what was going on,” said Lee. “He handed me the ______ and didn't ask for anything.” ______, she's able to pick up her granddaughters from school and take them to the dance class.

The idea came to Middleton during a food drive he'd ______. Many of those who lined up for a meal had ______ there for five miles ______ they didn’t have cars and in this part of South Carolina, Middleton told CBS, “There's no public ______.”

So he posted on Facebook an offer to ______ his restaurant's barbecued ribs(排骨), for broken cars. Since then, 100 cars in various states of disrepair have been dropped off. Many ______ in Middleton's yard waiting to be ______ and donated, usually to those he's heard about through word of mouth. It's a list of ______ that grows daily.

While I was driving a motorbike with one hand, a lady suddenly stepped into the street. I braked ______ to try to avoid her. As a result, I fell heavily to the ground and my left arm became completely paralyzed(瘫痪的).

Thus, I had to ______ everything I used to do with two hands. As a person who would rather get lost than ask for directions, asking for ______ is difficult for me. But I never expected things would ______ after years of swimming training for the 2020 Paralympics(残奥会).

When swimming, I need to wear a tight racing suit. It took a lot of practice to become ______ slowly putting one on with one hand. However, ______ one was a different story. I was once stuck and half naked in a swimsuit. I still refused to bother others and was even ______ to reach for a knife to find my way out. A girl near me saw me struggling. She rushed over and managed to ______ me in a minute.
