Recently, I stopped by a convenience store to get a newspaper and a bottle of drink. The young woman at the check-out counter (柜台) said, “That’ll be five dollars     36    , please.” She then     37     down at the paper I was     38     and said, “I’m sick and     39     all this negative(消极的) stuff on the front     40    . I want to read some     41     news for a change.” She then said, “In fact, I think someone should just     42     a Good News newspaper—a paper with wonderful, inspirational(鼓舞人心的)     43     about people overing difficulty and doing good things for     44    . I’d buy one every day!” She then     45     me for ing in and said, “Maybe we’ll get some good news,” and she laughed. She made my day.
The following day after my business appointments, I     46     the same store again to     47     bottled water and a piece of newspaper, but a     48     young lady was behind the counter. As I checked out, I said, “Good afternoon,” and handed her my     49    . She said nothing — not a word, not a smile or not a gesture. She just handed me my change and     50     a negative tone (语气) ordered, “Next!”
It hit me right between the eyes: Two people, the same age;     51     made me feel great, and the other, well, made me feel that I had inconvenienced(给…带来不便) her by     52    .
Every morning, you should ask     53     this important question: “Who do I want to be today? ‘The Grouch(不高兴的人)’ or ‘The Good News Girl’”? Your answer will do great good to     54     the joy and happiness that you will experience in your     55    .
