完形填空
One afternoon, I went to pick up my mother from work.I got there a little early, so I
1 my car by a
small park, and
2 for her.
As I looked outside the car window, I saw a little boy, around two years old, running
3 on the grass as his mother
4 from a short distance. The boy had a big smile on his face as if he had just been
5 free from some sort of prison . The boy would then fall to the grass ,
6 up , without looking back at his
mother , run as
7 as he could ,again , still with a smile on his face ,as if nothing had happened

.
At that moment, I thought to myself , "why aren't most adults this way ?" Most adults, when they fall
down, make a big deal out of it and don't even
8 a second attempt. They would be so
9 that they
would not try again if someone saw them fall .Or , because they fall , they would find a good
10 for
themselves that they're not fit for it . They would end up too afraid to attempt again for fear of failure.
However, with kids, when they fall down, they don't consider their falling down as a failure, instead,
they treat it as a
11 experience. They try again and again until they
12 .The answer must be that they
have not connected"falling down" with the word "failure". As a
13 , they are not discouraged in any way .
Besides, they
14 think to themselves that it's quite okay to fall down and that it's not wrong to do so. In
other words ,they allow themselves to make
15 , so they remain energetic.
I was deeply impressed by the boy's persistence (坚持不懈) and the manner in which he did.
