friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was the36 was he found himself unable to ask for help — his mobile phone went out of 37 as a result of exhausted (用尽的)battery. Nothing could be done but to 38in cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the 39 of the rescue.
It is almost 40 that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 41 : "First of all I checked up my 42 conditions and found myself not in mortal （致命的）danger. As there was no 43 to call for help ,I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from44 .In this way I dozed （打盹）off ."
His story put an end to my regret for the 45 of an exploration adventure that happened last year. A group of young men46 to explore a mountain cave and got lost . 47 to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of48 .Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion（筋疲力尽）.According to the 49 people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the 50 of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to 51 themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering （闪烁）not far away .
Don’t you think that you can compare it with 52 itself? When you meet with obstacles （障碍）in life and work ,you are lost in darkness. 53 you it’s unclear yet and you needn’t put up struggle 54 . It seems to be a negative （消极的）attitude, 55a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as a great courage in the first place
