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).
