(*苏省南京十三中2009届高三第三次模拟考试)
In 1982, Steven Callahan was crossing the Atlantic alone in his sailboat when it struck something and sank. He got into a life boat, but his supplies were 36 . His chances of surviving were small. 37 when three fishermen found him 76 days later, he was alive—much 38 than he was when he started, but alive.
His 39 of how he survived is fascinating. His cleverness — how he 40 to catch fish, how he evaporated(蒸发)sea water to 41 fresh water — is very interesting.
But the thing that 42 my eye was how he managed to keep himself going when all hope seemed lost, and there seemed no 43 in continuing the struggle. He was starved and 44 worn-out. Giving up would have seemed the only possible choice.
When people 45 these kinds of circumstances, they do something with their minds that gives them the courage to keep going. Many people in 46 desperate circumstances 47 in or go mad. Something the survivors do with their thoughts helps them find the courage to carry on 48 difficulties.
“I tell myself I can 49 it,” wrote Callahan in his book. “Compared to what others have been through, I’m fortunate. I tell myself these things over and over, 50 up courage…”
I wrote that down after I read it. It 51 me as something important. And I’ve told myself the same thing when my own goals seemed 52 off or when my problems seemed too terrible. And every time I’ve said it, I have always come back to my 53 .
The truth is, our circumstances are only bad 54 to something better. But others have been through the much worse, that is, in comparison with what others have been through, you’re fortunate. Tell this to yourself over and over again, and it will help you 55 through the rough situations with a little more courage.
