I used to have little passion (激情) in my life. But what happened the other day changed my min. It was then that 1 learned how 26 it is to have a passion in life.
That day 1 went home in Mom's ear. When Morn 27 at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed 28 rags (破舊衣服). He was homeless. That didn't interest me, because I had seen 29 like him before. Those people usually looked unhappy and hopeless.
But this man was 30 in some way. He was 
not sitting down with a 31 expression. Instead, he had a 32 in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious (珍貴的) thing he had.
"Morn, why does that man have a radio 33 he’s homeless?” I asked.
"He 34 it," she replied.
"But why doesn't he use the money to buy food or clothes? He 35 something that he didn't need."
"Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren't the most important.”
That man must care so much about 36 that he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that 37 is the key to life.
Since then I am always thinking of 38 is truly important in life. A home, a meal, clothes—these things are 39 part of the life. What we often forget is that we all need a joy, a light in a 40 . day. We all need a passion which gives a person the happiness they need ~o keep goin
