One of my fondest memories as a child is going by the river and sitting idly(闲散地)on the bank. There I would enjoy the peace and    1    , watch the water     2    downstream, and listen to the chirps(喳喳声)of the birds and the rustling (沙沙声)of the leaves in the trees. I would  also    3    the bamboo trees    4    under pressure from the wind and watch them     5    gracefully to their upright or     6     position after the wind had    7    . When I think about the bamboo tree’s     8    to bounce back or return to it’s original position, the word resilience(弹性)     9    to mind. When used in     10     a person , this word means the ability to readily _11    from shock, depression or any other situation    12    stetches the limits of a person’s emotions. Have you ever felt like you are about to shout? Have you ever felt like you are at your     13    point?    14    , you have survived the experience to live to talk about it.

The next time you are     18    one of those bad times or unhappy moments that take you     19    to your breaking point, bend but don’t break. Try your best not to let the situation get the best of you. A measure of hope will    20     you through the unpleasant test.
