Some people were steaming peas under a tree in order to make a meal for their horses. Up in the branches sat a monkey, 36 what they were doing.
"Aha" thought the monkey. “I spot my 37 !” So when the men had finished steaming the peas and 38 for a moment to look after the horses, 39 ,the monkey let himself down from the tree. He snatched (抓) the peas and filled his 40 and both hands as full as they could 41 . Then he climbed up the tree and sat there, eating happily.
Suddenly one pea fell.
"Oh dear! Oh my pea!" cried the monkey. The other peas 42 to drop out of his mouth. He 43 his hands in despair(绝望地), and the peas fell out of his hands too, but he took no 44 . All he thought of was that one pea was gone,__45__ he climbed down the trunk to hunt for his lost pea on the ground. At this time, the men came back.

Being a waitress changed my life. One of my 41 customers was Fred Hasbrook. He always ate an omelet, and when I saw him _42 , I tried to have it on his table as soon as he sat down.
Thanks to the new found confidence I 43 __from Helen, I dreamed of having my own __44 . But when I called my parents to ask for a loan(贷款), they said, “We just don’t have the money.”
The next day, Fred saw me and asked, “What’s 45 ? You’re not smiling today.” I 46__my dream with him and said, “Fred, I know I can do more if somebody 47 just have faith in(信任)me.”
Before long he handed me checks 48 __$50,000—along with a note that I have to this day. It reads, “The only collateral(抵押品)on this loan is my trust in your 49 as a person. Good people with a dream should have 50 __to make that dream come true.”
I took the checks to Merrill Lynch, where the money was provided for me. I 51 working at the restaurant, making 52 for the restaurant I would open. My plans soured(破灭), and I lost the 53 .

What’s the secret of success? Is it having loads of money? Good luck? Great
teeth?
Sure, cash, luck, and a nice 36 can’t hurt. But many social scientists agree that what successful people have in common is this: They were 37.
There’s George Washington, the top general of America’s troops in the Revolutionary War, who lost two huge 38 and was nearly fired. 39 Steve Jobs, who developed a lot of failed products---and even got fired from Apple---before 40 to change the world with the iPod, iPhone, and iPad.
The 41 goes on: From Katy and Hall of Fame (名人堂)basketball legend Michael Jordan to Glee(欢乐合唱团 ) star Chris Colfer, the majority of today’s most successful people were 42 losers. They were dropped from record labels, 43_from basketball teams, or bullied in school. They felt humiliated, lost and 44.
But they eventually figured out how to move forward. And that is the key skill: the 45 to dust yourself off and try again. And again. Experts call this resilience(复原力 )---being able to 46 from setbacks. This is what turns losers into winners. Experts say that in terms of future success, resilience is more important than brains or talent. So 47 you fail a test or strike out at bat or sing off-key, don’t give up.
