At a dark night, a man came to a lonely village. When he walked slowly, a yellow light suddenly _______ at the end of the road. It came from a _______ which was carried by a man. A villager near him said, "Here Blind Sun comes."
"Blind?" the man said, "That's too _______. A blind man has no idea of day and night, can’t _______ the beauty of nature, or even doesn't know what the light is. Wasn't he funny to carry a lantern?"
As the lantern was coming near, the yellow light moved gradually to the man. The man asked, "_______, may I ask you whether you're really blind?"
The blind man answered, "Yes, the moment I stepped into the world, I can't see _______ "
The man asked, "In that case, _______ do you carry a lantern?" The blind man smiled, "At night all the people without light are just as blind _______ me, so I light a lantern."
The man said, "I see, you light for others."
But the man said, "No, I do it for _______. "
"For yourself? But there is no ________ to do that. " the man felt surprised again.
The blind man explained, "Were you ever knocked by others ________ the dark? "
The man nodded, "yes, sometimes. "
The man said proudly, "Believe it or not. I ________ knocked anyone. Although I’m blind, I carry the lantern, not only light for others, but let others see me, ________ they won’t knock me."
After hearing that, the man was lost in thought…
