2、用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空，使短文完整、通顺。

In 1876, Mark Twain published The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The book is fun to read. Even today, it is quite 【1】 among children. And although I am in my thirties, the novel remains one of my favorites. After rereading the book 【2】, I learned an important lesson from Tom Sawyer.

In our daily lives, we are often given some boring or tiring tasks. Let’s be honest: What’s on your mind when your mom 【3】 you to sweep the floor? Have you ever wanted to complain? I think most of us have.

Tom Sawyer, however, 【4】 “differently" when he was given a boring task.

One Saturday morning, Aunt Polly told Tom to paint the fence. Tom’s friend Ben happened to walk past. Instead of 【5】 , Tom told Ben that he felt “excited” about the task. “Only one in a thousand—maybe even two thousand—boys can do this,” Tom said. “I enjoy it very much!”

Tom’s words made Ben 【6】 in the task. He even gave Tom his apple so that he could have a chance to paint the fence. If Tom had thought about 【7】 but complaining, he would have spent a bad day painting the fence.

Tom thought differently in order to trick others into working for him. Yet this story teaches me a 【8】 lesson: Complaining is useless. The next time you are given a boring or tiring task, don’t complain. 【9】 what happens in the story of Tom Sawyer, it is unlikely that someone will come and do the work for you. However, without complaining, you’ll feel 【10】 and perhaps even do a better job!

I recently heard a story about a famous scientist. Because of his great achievements, he was thought to be more creative than the average person. When he was asked w【1】 he was able to do this, he gave the answer. It all came from an e【2】 with his mother when he was about two years old. “I was trying to get a bottle of milk from the fridge when I lost the bottle and it fell, spilling the milk all over the floor—a sea of milk! I was f【3】 and I didn’t know what to do!” he said.

His mother heard the noise and got into the kitchen. “I was considering how to e【4】 all this to her,” he said. Instead of punishing(惩罚)him, she said, “Robert, what a great mess you have made! I have never seen such a huge sea of milk before! Well, since the milk has a【5】 been spilled, would you like to play in the milk for a while? We can clean it up after that.”

Indeed, he did so. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, finally you have to clean it up.” He used a sponge(海绵)and together they cleaned up the spilled milk.

His mother then said, “You know, we failed in how to successfully carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands just now. Let’s go out in the yard and fill the bottle with water to see if you can f【6】 a way to carry it.” Then the little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it w【7】 dropping it.

What a wonderful lesson!
