________ is friendship? It has nothing to do with money. It is easy to get. It could come from a hug, a call and so on. You know, even a small giving can help a lot. Find your friend in your life.

I didn’t have passion (激情) in my life. But one thing changed my mind. It was then that I learned how _________ it is to have passion in life.

That day I went home in Mom’s car. When Mom _________ at a red light (灯), someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man _________ in rags (破旧衣服). He didn’t have a home. That didn’t interest me, _________ I saw many people like him before. Those people usually looked unhappy and hopeless. But this man was _________ in some way. He was not sitting down _______. Instead (然而), he had a _________ in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious (珍奇的) thing. “Mom, why does that man have a radio though he’s _______?” I asked.

“He _________ it.” she said.

“But why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He didn’t __________ it.” “Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important.”

That man must care so __________ about music that he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I knew that __________ is the key to life.

After that, I am always thinking of __________ is truly important in life. A home, a meal, clothes—these things are only __________ of the life. What we often forget is that we all need a joy, a light in a __________ day. We all need a passion which gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.

On her way to school, she found that everyone who saw her smiled at her. Most of her schoolmates said “Hello” to her, and this never happened before. She thought that the beautiful hair clip ________ them all to her. She was so happy ________ all of the wonderful things.

Although all her classmates wanted to know ________ happened to her, she didn’t want to tell them about her beautiful hair clip.

When she went back home after school, her mother asked her, “Did you know you ________ your hair clip at home? I found it by the door this morning.”

She was ________ to hear what her mother said. She knew that she didn’t wear the hair clip to school at all.

It’s not important what we wear or how we ________. The most ________ thing is how we think about ourselves. ________ we want to do a thing successfully, first try to be confident. If we think we can, we can.
