I once had an unforgettable experience that has affected and directed the way I think and act now.

    When I was about seven years old, my grandfather {#blank#}1{#/blank#} me to a fish pond on a farm and told me to throw a stone into the water. He told me to watch the circles created {#blank#}2{#/blank#} the stone. Then he asked me to think of myself as that stone. “You may create lots of circles in your life, but the waves {#blank#}3{#/blank#}come from those circles will disturb (干扰) the peace of all the people around you,” he said {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. “Remember that your circle may spread to many other circles, meaning that your thoughts or actions may disturb others' {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. You are responsible for what you put in your circle. If you want, the good or peace that comes from your circles{#blank#}6{#/blank#}to others. At the same time, the anger or jealousy (嫉妒) coming from your circle will also spread to other circles. You should allow the good feelings {#blank#}7{#/blank#} others, not the bad ones, because you are responsible for both.”

    That was the {#blank#}8{#/blank#} time I heared my grandfather tell me these. I had realized that each person's {#blank#}9{#/blank#}or anger can move out into the world. If we are filled with doubt or anger, we cannot create world peace. We spread the feeling and thoughts that we hold inside, whether we speak {#blank#}10{#/blank#} or not. These circles are spreading into the world. Creating beauty or making troubles to other circles of life.

B：OK．

    Once upon a time, in a small village, there was a place {#blank#}1{#/blank#} the House of 1,000 Mirrors(镜子). A small happy dog knew this and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} to visit it. When he arrived, he happily climbed the stairs(楼梯) of the house. He looked into the doorway {#blank#}3{#/blank#} his tail wagging(摇动) as fast as he could. He smiled, and saw 1,000 other warm and friendly smiles. As he left the house, he thought, "This is a nice place. I will come back and visit it often.

In this village, another little dog，who was not as {#blank#}4{#/blank#} as the first one, also decided to visit the house. He {#blank#}5{#/blank#} climbed the stairs and looked unhappily into the doorway. He saw 1.000 unfriendly dogs staring at(盯着看) him. He growled(吼叫) at them and saw 1, 000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought, "This is a bad place， and I will never come back here.
