One afternoon, I went to pick up my mother from work. I got a little early so I  36    the car by the roadside, and  37 for her.
As I looked 38  the car window to my right, I saw a little boy around two years old in a small park, 39  freely on the grass as his _40___ watched him from a short distance. The boy had a __41___ smile on his face. He would then fall to the grass, get up , and without__42___ or without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could, again, still with a big smile on his face, as if __43___ had happened.
With 44  especially at an early age, when they fall down, they don’t consider their falling down as a failure, __45___ instead, they treat it as a learning experience. They try and try again _46____ they succeed.
The answer must be that they have not connected “falling down” with the word “__47__” yet. Thus they don’t know __48__ to feel the state which accompanies failure. They probably think that it is perfectly okey to fall down, and that it’s not _49___ to do so. In other words, they give themselves permission (许可) to _50___ mistakes subconsciously（潜意识地）. Thus they always remain encouraged.
I was _51___ by the boy’s persistence(坚持) and the manner in which he ran. With each _52___, he looked so confident. No _53__ of fear, or of being discouraged ----- as if he didn’t _54___ the world around him. His only aim was to run _55___ and to do it as effectively as he could. I learned a lot from that observation and experience.
