Last summer I went on a twoday river rafting trip with my teenage daughter as the river guide. I was proud to see my baby girl 1 and confidently moving our raft through a variety of 2 whitewater conditions. I also found it3to have my daughter giving commands and barking 4 as to when and how to paddle(用桨划船).
As we approached the largest 5 on the river I could feel my heart beating faster. Upon 6 the turbulent(湍急的) water, our boat got 7 on a large rock. I was in the front of the boat and reached 8 with my paddle, thinking I would help 9 us away from the rock. In the next instant I could feel myself falling out of the boat and into the river. I did have my moments of 10 and terror.
This resistance disappeared quickly, 11 I landed in the cold, powerfully turbulent water. 12 my highquality flotation vest, I was pulled underwater, 13 thankfully, within seconds I popped(冒出) back up to the 14. A few moments later one of the other trip leaders called for me to 15 toward his boat, where I was quickly pulled up and in. I was shaken, out of breath, and quite 16to be out of the turbulent water.
An equivalent of this experience happens all the time in our lives. This is life. You cannot count on things going 17. When we do, we often 18disappointed and unhappy. Resisting 19 which often arrives suddenly and unexpectedly, keeps us from 20 the scenario(可能要发生的事) unfolding before us clearly, and it can keep us from acting in ways that are smart and effective and that lead to results that make us feel good and proud of ourselves.
