The other day my daughter finally had a day off work. We decided to go out in the    16  for the time, together! It was an enjoyable experience. Then a surprising thing happened. She turned and asked, “Hey, Dad, can I    17  the boat?” I had a look of fear in my eyes    18  the boat can be driven at a very high speed and can be turned over very quickly. However, I gave the driving seat to her and began    19  her how to properly control the boat. I told her to remain calm as I had completely believed in her.
It can be both frightening and exciting when your child tries doing something, even if it’s a small thing, you still feel like they are growing up too fast and it’s out of your    20  . Time goes by so quickly, so it’s    21  to spend time with your kids, with your family. It is an amazing feeling to experience as their confidence grows.
In every situation if you relax, take your time, and show confidence, you will have a great      22  . We not only had a    23  morning on the boat, but also invited our little neighbour who is 8 years old and put him in the    24  right between us. As I drove at top speed, making sudden turns and jumping over the waves, all I could hear was my neighbour      25  and screaming at the top of his voice because he was having such a great time.

“The only thing holding you back is yourself. Never say never”, said a rising 17-year-old singer, Justin Bieber, who was just an ordinary boy in Canada a few years ago.
After the accident of falling from the 18th floor and lying in the snow for three hours, my hands were frozen and my spinal cord (脊髓)was seriously injured. All the doctors and professors in the famous hospitals in Beijing told me that there was little chance for my hands and my body to recover (康復).
After half a year of medical treatments and recovering exercises, I could not make any more progress for over a year. What was worse , I suffered a lot from depression (絕望). On top of this, I suffered from insomnia, making every minute of the night seem to last forever. Hopelessly, mom and I came back to my hometown, which is small town in Guangdong.
At that time, I thought that I would never be able to walk again. I would never love and be loved. I would never be able to earn even a penny. I would never be able to repay the kindness I got from my parents and many nice people. Life was meaningless.
Now two years has passed. My hands are 80% recovered. I can even type faster than a healthy person! Up to now, I have worked for a law firm as an interpreter for half a year already. Although I don’t earn as much as before, I am able to pay for the food and clothes I need. What’s more, I even have extra money to buy thanksgiving presents for my parents and my boyfriend. Through my blogs (博客) , many people get to know me and like me. I can bring happiness to them. I can help those who are still suffering from depression and the pain of illnesses by chatting with them….You see, I am living a meaningful life and I am happier than ever I could have dreamed.
So, my friends, never say never. As long as you are alive, there is always hope and possibilities. It is never too late to take action to realize your dreams.     (382 words)

f. Concentrate on what you want to say. If you are always paying attention to gestures(手勢),you will feel uncomfortable.
