But what happened the other day changed my mind. It was then that I learned how 31 it is to have a passion in life.That day I went home in Moms car. When Mom 32 at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed in rags(破旧衣服）. He was homeless. That didnt interest me, because I saw many like him before. Those people usually 33 unhappy and hopeless.But this man was 34 in some way. He was not sitting down with a sad expression. Instead, he had a 35 in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious(珍贵的)thing he had.“Mom, why does that man have a radio though hes homeless?” I asked.“He 36 it.” she answered.“But why doesnt he use the money to buy food or clothes? He 37 for something that he didnt need.”“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes arent the most important.”That man must care so much about 38 that he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that 39 is the key to life.Since then I am always thinking of what is truly important in life. A home, a meal, clothes -these things are not 40 parts of the life. What we often forget is that we all need a joy, a light in a dark day. We all need a passion which gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.31.
