A White – bearded ancient man was walking over the hills and valleys of the world.On his back he carried a bag which moved uneasily as if something was trying to escape from it, but he
21 it between his shoulders and walked on.
He was Father Time, traveling forever, and the bag he
22 was filled with Tomorrows, all struggling to get out.
Each
23 at twelve o’clock, he opened the bag and
24 a Tomorrow, just one, with its wings of
25 , and its shining feathers rose with hope.All the rest were kept
26 by Time’s strong hands and pushed
27 in the bag.
Down flew the Tomorrow
28 its lovely feathers, but as it touched the
29 , off fell its blue wings and it changed to a(n)
30 white bird which could not fly.It had become a Today.Everyone knows that Today isn’t as
31 as Tomorrow, for Today can be held in one’s
32 , accepted, unloved, but Tomorrow is full of mystery(神秘)and beauty.It is
33 by all the world.Even those with
34 hope sigh, “Tomorrow may bring a(n)
35 .Tomorrow’s life will be different.”
Everybody tried to
36 the Tomorrow before it fell to the ground.They thought if they
37 beforehand what the Tomorrow carries, they could
38 for it.So they put great nets on the trees, seeking to catch one
39 it changed his feather.Yet although they tried every means, the birds
40 and flew to the ground as Todays.
