Anna lost her arms in a car accident when
she was a child. What was worse, she lost her parents {#blank#}1{#/blank#} the age of twenty. Her elder sister, who was
ten years {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (old) than her, wanted to take care of her.
However, Anna refused {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (live) with her sister, saying that she would
like to take care of herself. She managed to enter college and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (study) very hard. Four years later, she
graduated and found a job. Once she wrote in her diary, "I am quite lucky.
I lost my arms, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} I still have my legs."
Anna chose to face her misfortune (不幸) in an active way.
Instead of {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (feel) sad every day, she decided not to let
it hold her back. She has taught us a good lesson. When something bad happens
to us, we have two {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (choice). One is to complain (抱怨), and {#blank#}8{#/blank#} other is to face it bravely. If we choose to
run away, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} will follow us wherever we go. If we decide to
be strong, new hopes will come. So choose {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (wise).
