Mr. Glen is a millionaire. Five years ago, after returning from abroad to his motherland, he 41 his small company. Speaking of success, Glen often tells us a story about his extra expensive “school” fee. He always _42__ his success to it.
At that time, Glen, who already got a Ph.D. degree, 43 to return to the homeland, starting a company. Before leaving, he bought a Rolex watch with the 44 made through years of work after school and the scholarships. At the airport he had to accept the 45 customs check. The watch on his wrist was also demanded to be taken down for 46 . Glen knew that carrying the specific goods out had to pay the tax, and he worried about paying 47 for his watch. So when he was checked, he told a lie that his watch was a 48 fake(假货). When he was 49 of his “smarts”, immediately, in the presence of Glen, the officers hit the watch, 50 cost nearly 100,000, into pieces 51 hearing Glen’s words. Glen was 52 . Before he understood why, he was taken to the office to be examined 53 . For many times of entry-exit 54 he knew that only those people in the “blacklist” would “enjoy” this special treatment. The officers looked over everything carefully in the box, and 55 him no matter what time of entry and exit he must accept the check and if 56 reusing and carrying fake and shoddy goods, he would be 57 according to law! Suddenly, his face turned red, and he had nothing in mind after boarding the plane for long.
After returning to the homeland, he often told the story to his family, and his employees, too. He said that this made a deep 58 on him, because the additional high “school” fee that he had ever paid made him realize the value of 59 , which he would remember as the 60 of his success forever.
