My father was o2. a strong man, but a terrible illness took all that3.. Now he can no longer walk, and he must sit4.(quiet) in a chair all day. One night, I went to visit him with my sisters. We started talking about life, and I told them about one of my5.(experience). I said that we must very often give6. things while we are growing—our youth, our beauty, our friends—but it always seems that we gain(得到) something new in its7./ple?s/. Then suddenly my father spoke up,“I gained the love ofmy family.” I looked at my sisters and saw tears in8.(they) eyes, along with hope and thankfulness.

I was moved by his words. After that, I would remember his words and become9./kɑ:m/ when I began to feel irritated（惱怒的） at someone. In this way, I learned the power of acceptance from my father.

Sometimes I wonder what other things I could have learned from him if I had listened more carefully10./wen/ I was a boy. For now I am grateful for this gift.

It is very important to have a law to base your life on. A law of life that1.(mean) a lot to me is that success is a journey, not a destination(目的地).

One person who shares my law of life is Mark McGwire, a US baseball2.(play). He once played for St Lewis Cardinals. He didn’t get caught3. in the home-run competition in the1998 season, but4./?n?sted/ played every game in the best way he could. And, most ofthe time, he helped 5.(he) team. He didn’t just go6. there and hit home runs because he wanted to be ahead in the end, but because he wanted to make it a good season for his team.

I also think my law of life can be applied（應(yīng)用） by the Cardinals. They stay focused on7.(play) in the World Series. They know that even ifthey lose some games, they n8. give up.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have the9./??b?l?ti/ to be on the top in the end or win the championship. All that matters is that you worked hard the whole time. There are a f10.people in the world know that success is considered as a journey, not a destination. After all, it’s not about who wins or loses, but how well you play the game, and I hope I have applied this in my own life.
