After listening to everyone’s concerns and problems, Professor Smith looked over at the hostess (主持人) and asked her if she could get a paper and pen for everyone in the room. She    36   a minute later, and brought some paper and pens.
“Do me a    37  ,” Professor Smith asked. “We’re going to try something and I    38   your cooperation. On the small piece of paper please    39   the 3 biggest problems you are facing in your personal life right now. Don’t write your name on it. We’ll keep it    40  .”
The group found the experiment    41  , not knowing what was to follow.
After everyone wrote down their problems, Professor Smith asked everyone to    42   their paper and put it in a small basket that was in the front of the room. There were    43   expressions throughout the room,    44   again, everyone cooperated, wanting to know what would    45   next.
Professor Smith shook the basket and then he    46   around the room and asked each person to    47   a paper from the basket. After he had done that, he sat back down and looked around the room.
“Friends,   48   the paper and read to yourself the problems that you    49  ,” Professor Smith said.
Then, Professor Smith    50   at the woman sitting on his left and asked, “Lisa, would you like to    51   your problems that you wrote down with those that you chose from the basket?”
“No,” Lisa said.
Next, Professor Smith asked the man sitting next to Lisa the    52   question. “Would you like to exchange the problems you wrote down with those that you chose from the basket?”
   53   the reply was “No.”
Professor Smith went around the whole room. Everyone had a    54   to answer.
Surprisingly, the answers were all the same — no, no, no, no…. Some people said that “I can settle my own problems, but I can’t    55   what I chose out of the basket”. Some people said “Wow — these make my problems look like nothing.”
