Are you still wishing your friends and partners “Happy New Year”? In the first few days of a new year, we say these three words countless times. The ___16___ is that we say them almost without thinking. The result of such a wish is that it ___17___ its meaning and power. Last month, I ___18___ Dada J P Vaswani’s first speech after his return from the US. The ___19___ of his speech was “In 2012, all will be fine”. While sharing one of his many ___20___ ideas, he said that while “Happy New Year” is a nice greeting, there’s a more beautiful and encouraging way to ___21___ others—“Happy New You!” Those three ___22___ words show that New Year is a time to leave behind our ___23___ and step forward. It’s the time to renew ourselves by getting rid of the negative things of the past — ___24___, pain and so on. It’s also the right time to give up thoughts of fear and failure. For those who are ___25___ what to change, Dada has a simple suggestion: write down all the things that you don’t ___26___ about yourself… every single one. They could be small or big, easy or difficult — ___27___ write them all down. Putting them on ___28___ brings clearness of thought, which is the fi rst step towards bringing about any chang e. So this New Year, let’s wish each other “Happy New You” and then ___29___ that trend all through the year. Each time you wish others, you will be ___30___ not only them but also yourself to leave behind sadness and the past — because it’s time for being Happy and New. 小题1: A.mind B.idea C.thought D.problem 小题2: A.proves B.loses C.hides D.shows 小题3: A.ruined B.remembered C.attended D.missed 小题4: A.opinion B.design C.structure D.topic 小题5: A.beautiful B.funny C.old D.normal 小题6: A.surprise B.wish C.require D.disappoint 小题7: A.short B.unusual C.exciting D.new 小题8: A.friends B.dreams C.wishes D.disappointments 小题9: A.anger B.calm C.Excitement D.desire 小题10: A.avoiding B.fearing C.forgetting D.wondering 小题11: A.like B.think C.care D.ask 小题12: A.still B.just C.sometimes D.never 小题13: A.paper B.mind C.cloth D.bed 小题14: A.explain B.continue C.improve D.check 小题15: A.helping B.replacing C.reminding D.pleasing
