My father was born in a small town in the US. He wasn't sure what he wanted from 1, but something told him to 2 and begin a new adventure.

He began that adventure traveling to cities in the US before going on to Australia, New Zealand and the Philippines. He took my mother and us three daughters with him and went wherever the road 3 him.

It's easy to feel4 when you're on the road. We made lots of new friends on our trip — most of them are mechanics, since we often 5 hours in repair shops. But that was a way much6 than sitting by the roadside while waiting for the engine to 7 when it was 40 ℃ outside.

Getting along well sometimes seemed 8. There were always a lot of 9, especially among us back seat passengers about who had to 10 in the middle. But even if it was hard, we learned a lot about 11. When we were traveling in the Philippines, we drove to Quezon City one day. It should have been an hour's drive but was nearly three thanks to bad roads and 12 traffic. "Did you put our suitcases in the car?" my father asked my mother as we arrived there. From the back seat, we saw her 13 turn toward my father. "No," she said. "I thought you did." That was how a seven­hour car trip turned into a 16­hour one, which was mostly spent in 14.

On occasions like that, we had to learn to let go of our anger because we were 15 in a rolling box with the same people for the rest of the 16. Even if I sometimes felt like opening the car door and 17 one of my sisters out, I kept my feelings to myself.

This is why road trips were like 18 universities to us. We 19 our PhDs (博士学位) in how to get along with other people just by traveling in our old car.

If we were 20 given a second chance at life, we would do it all over again. Only this time would I put the suitcases in the car myself.

When I was a little boy, the dinner on the eve of the Spring Festival was{#blank#}1{#/blank#}I looked forward to most. It was not only for the delicious food that we seldom got to eat, but also an opportunity to have the family gathered together. I would run {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (happy) with my sister in the house, while my mom was preparing food in the kitchen. She would put some tokens in some dumplings; candies for a sweet life, and peanuts for a long and healthy {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. In the evening, we would sit around the table, toasted each other and enjoyed the homemade dishes, which tasted much better than anything {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (cook) in the restaurant.

However, for the last three years, we {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (eat) out for the Spring Festival family dinner, and we have enjoyed it no less than eating at home.{#blank#}6{#/blank#} I don't understand why some people refuse this change. Can't they admit that the {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (prepare) for a dinner is hard work? It is not worth the effort of spending so much time cooking a single meal. We work all year, so why can't one day be about spending time with family and {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (relax). Eating out is a good choice and it has nothing to do {#blank#}9{#/blank#} loss of traditions. We still have the dinner with the same people, just in a different place. The occasion is more {#blank#}10{#/blank#}_(enjoy) without that tiring cooking.

The famous Spanish painter Pablo Picasso once said, "I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it." It strikes a chord(引起共鸣) with me because that's exactly what I have been doing these years.

One of my earliest memories of doing before learning is baking scones(烤饼) when I was about 10 years old. I wanted to bake them to surprise my mother when she returned home.

Before that, I'd observed how my mother baked them many times. As I started to try, I didn't know I shouldn't handle the dough(面团) with my hands too much once I'd added the baking powder(发酵粉). However, I knew exactly how to roll out the dough and use a cookie cutter to cut the scones, because my mom had already taught me.

By the time my mom arrived home, the smell of freshly baked scones welcomed her into the kitchen. They were close to perfection—flat, as a result of overhandling the dough, but they tasted OK. My mom sweetly praised me for my attempt, rather than scolding me for the state of the kitchen, which was like a tornado had just blown!

Have my attempts always been successful? I wish! Some of my kitchen disasters were so terrible that even the dogs wanted nothing to do with them. My gardening failures didn't live to see another season.

But my habit of doing before learning is still helpful. Whatever new software I have to learn how to use, I do so by simply starting to use it. I do, learn, and improve. So if you ask me whether I regret that I tend to do first and learn later, I'd say I don't, because what I have discovered from those is the wisdom to know when it's OK to do and then learn, and when it's probably better to learn and then do!

The excitement that soccer awakens in a person is a universal feeling. That is why no one should feel left out of the1 , particularly at a2 match in a stadium (体育场), where there may not be a sports commentator (解说员) to3 the event. This can result in individuals with visual impairments (视觉障碍) not being included.

A4 man named Mike Kearney knows this all too well, but he luckily has a great friend. A5 video recorded Kearney's cousin Stephen Garcia describing a whole soccer match to him at the stadium—and both6 together after their team scored.

Kearney and Garcia are both Liverpool FC season ticket holders. "It's just our routine; it's what we do," Garcia said in an interview. "I7 him every goal kick, every corner, every throw-in. And obviously he knows when we score8 he gets a big hug, a big celebration." The man further9 that Kearney was told who10 the goal and how the play went, in addition to hearing the11 if the other team scored.

Moved by their love for the team, Liverpool FC12 the pair for the final game of the season. The team then documented their13 at the stadium, recording not only Garcia describing the action to Kearney, but also their heartwarming celebration of Liverpool FC's14 .

Later, Salah, one of the team's stars, gifted them team jerseys (运动套衫), signing Kearney's with, "To Mike, your 15 is an inspiration."

One of my favorite family photographs was taken last year at Disneyland. We were at the 1 of a ride called "Splash Mountain" and the picture was taken just as we were starting to 2 down. Disneyland cleverly designed an automatic camera, 3 at the most frightening part of the ride to take photos of the riders. These 4 pictures are then displayed at the exit of Splash Mountain and are available to 5 . They are not expensive. 

I love this photograph because it's so real. Usually, when you are going to take pictures, you tidy your hair and 6 a pretty smile, wanting to look best. This picture is natural, showing a perfect mixture of 7 and terror on our faces. My husband's mouth is open in a scream as he hangs on to me. My son is 8 his baseball cap backwards so it won't fly off. 

Every time I look at that photograph, I feel 9 . Through this picture, I sense that life should be an adventure and that we should have courage and enjoy new 10 all the time. However, most of the time we draw back 11 fear. Fear is a kind of sick feeling that can 12 us from experiencing new interesting things in life. In fact, just as Franklin D. Roosevelt 13 it, the only thing we have to fear is fear itself. 

So, when you feel like you're at the top of a roller coaster with a huge, alarming drop, don't retreat(撤退). That is the time to 14 . That's the time to put a big smile on your face, scream if you need to, hug those you 15 and move forward towards the new adventures ahead.
