Question

    When I was small, I used to visit my grandparents in the countryside, far away from the city. My grandpa was a ______ farmer. Though he passed away many years ago, I still remember a lesson Grandpa taught me one summer.

Grandpa looked after the sheep and ______ them from wolves and other wild animals in the forest. One morning, when Grandpa gathered (聚焦) the sheep, we set out. As we were guarding (看护) the sheep, Grandpa said to me, “Nick, ______ yourself to be a sheep farmer. What will you do if one of the sheep is lost? Will you go to look for it?”

“Of course,” I replied. “As a sheep farmer, I should ______ every sheep. If one sheep is lost, I will do whatever it takes to ______ it back.”

Grandpa shook his head and said, “You have a kind heart, ______ I don’t think you are wise enough.”

At that time, I didn’t ______. Then, Grandpa continued, “Remember, no matter what happens, you must keep your cool. If you don’t, you won’t be able to make right ______. If one of these sheep is lost and we go to look for it, what will happen to the other sheep? They might get ______, too. What’s worse, they might be eaten up by wolves.”

The more I thought about Grandpa’s words, the more I realized how ______ it was!

From then on, I always remembered to keep my cool no matter what happened.
