After David's daughter was born, he decided to make one million dollars. He thought in this way his daughter would live {#blank#}1{#/blank#} happy life.

    In order to achieve his goal, David devoted most {#blank#}2{#/blank#}his time to his business. While other fathers {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(play) with their kids outside, he was working. While other fathers were reading stories to their kids, he was hanging out with his clients(客户). His little daughter {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(name) Jane hardly saw him.

    Time flew fast. One day, when David returned home from work, he saw Jane {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(sit) in the living room. When she saw him, she ran to him and asked him to play with her for a while. “Sorry, Jane, but I'm {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(terrible) busy tonight. I have a lot of work to do.” He was about to leave {#blank#}7{#/blank#}he heard Jane crying. So he stopped and asked why. “You're always working. You have no time for me at all. You're not a good dad,” said Jane. David was {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(lose) in thought after hearing that. He remembered why he worked so hard — he wanted Jane to live a happy life. However, things go contrary to his wishes. He {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(teach) a good lesson that day. Therefore, he made a {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(decide) to spend a lot more time with his daughter.

    When Jack was a small boy, he was once asked to give a speech about “A Big Challenge in My Life”．To talk before the whole class, he was {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (terrible) shy the moment he thought of so many eyes {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (stare) at him. He had no other{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (choose), though. First Jack was to draft the speech, which was just a piece of cake for him because he was a good writer. But the hard part {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (lie) in his oral presentation, for it was not allowed to read from the paper. He had to give the speech {#blank#}5{#/blank#} his memory and in front of such a big audience!

    A real trial began when Jack stood on the platform with his legs trembling and his mind blank. He didn't know how much time had passed by. His listeners were still waiting patiently and without any signs of laughing. Gradually he found himself back, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (give) out his speech without much difficulty. After what seemed to be a hundred years, he found the audience applauding. He made {#blank#}7{#/blank#}！From then on, his fear of talking before the audience disappeared. Actually with his confidence {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (build) up, Jack now turns out to be a great speaker. As we know, the greater difficulty we meet on our way to {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (succeed), the {#blank#}10{#/blank#} likely we will achieve our goals.

    When I was a kid, Mom used to cook food for us. One night after {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (spend) a long hard day at work, Mom placed a plate of bread jam and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (extreme) burnt toast（烤面包） in front of my dad, I was waiting {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (see) if he noticed it. However, while eating his toast. Dad just asked me {#blank#}4{#/blank#} my day was at school. I don't remember what I told him that night,{#blank#}5{#/blank#} I do remember I heard Mom apologizing to Dad for burning the toast. I'll never forget what Dad said, "Honey, I love burnt toast."

    Later that night, I {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (go) to kiss Daddy good night and asked him if he really liked his toast burned. He gave me {#blank#}7{#/blank#} big hug and said, "Your mamma put in a long hard day at work today, really {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (tire). Besides, a burnt toast never hurts but cold words do!"

    What I've learned over the years {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (be) that learning to accept each other's faults is one of the most important {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (key) to creating a healthy, growing and lasting relationship.
