Knowing my love for animals, my parents allowed me to graduate straight from caring for gerbils and walking the neighbor’s dog to getting a pony. Bonnie was a dappled brown Shetland pony with a blondmane and tail.While I was a lucky child, I was not a pampered child. I paid for Bonnie with my allowance and money I’d earned from doing extra chores. I had no previous horse experience, and I had to learn everything about Bonnie’s needs because she was my responsibility. I learned how to feed, water and care for her every day. I hauledbales of hay, sacks of feed and buckets of water. I cleaned her stall, wielding a pitchfork and pushing a wheelbarrow. I learned how to brush Bonnie and pick the stones out of her hooves without getting kicked or stepped on.My parents had no previous experience with horses either, so we learned together. They helped by hauling the grain and hay from the feed mill, and scheduling Bonnie’s regular hoof trims and veterinary exams. We learned how to properly fit Bonnie’s bridle and strap on her saddle.My first riding lesson on Bonnie was in an outdoor arena with a wood fence. The painted white boards that circled the ring were nailed to the outsides of wooden posts.I was feeling fine in the saddle, riding around the oval ring, when Bonnie bolted suddenly. Those horizontal boards were mounted low so as to stop a full-size horse from exiting, but Bonnie was short enough to duck her head and run under one of the boards. She fit, but I did not. Hanging on for dear life, I slammed into the board and knocked it off the posts to which it was nailed. The force of the blow knocked me off Bonnie. As I slid off her right side, the saddle spun around until it was hanging upside down from her belly with my left foot stuck in the stirrup. Bonnie, now at a gallop, dragged me along the ground by my left foot. I still remember the ground scraping along my back as my head bounced up and down and the sky appeared and disappeared. Mercifully, my left foot finally came free. I was left lying on my back with the wind knocked out of me, the dust from Bonnie’s hasty retreat clouding up all around.Mom and Dad hurried over to assess the damage. Fortunately, I was a sturdy child. Although I was covered with dust and would soon be black and blue, I wasn’t bleeding profusely and didn’t have any broken bones. We didn’t wear helmets in those days, and I was a bit dazed, but my skull was intact, and my head seemed to be okay. Mom tended to me as I caught my breath, while Dad hiked off to the far pasture to retrieve Bonnie and the saddle that was hanging upside down from her belly.What had spooked Bonnie so suddenly? We hadn’t seen or heard anything. Dad said that he’d found a nail protruding from the underside of the saddle. The jab from the nail must have penetrated the saddle blanket and startled Bonnie. Dad fixed the nail so it didn’t protrude and re-secured the saddle on Bonnie’s back.Once Bonnie and I had calmed down and were reassured, trying again was the only option. It was presented humanely, with plenty of support and an explanation for why the ride would be much smoother the second time — the nail had been fixed! It helped that Bonnie was exhausted from her gallop to the far corner of the pasture, and that Dad held the reins and led Bonnie around the ring with me back up in the saddle.Bonnie and I learned that trying again could change things. Most people have heard the old saying, “Get back on the horse that threw you.” People usually use that saying figuratively, but I learned it quite literally. As an impressionable nine-year-old, I learned without a doubt that something that had spun completely out of control into terrifying chaos just a few minutes earlier could turn out to be quite enjoyable the second time. We had survived the chaos! I learned to try again, and to try differently the next time to achieve a better result.That experience had an enormously positive effect on my life. I think of all the times since then when something went terribly wrong, and I knew viscerally that I could try again and expect a completely different outcome. Like when I was in graduate school and my professor told me I wasn’t graduate school material. I was stunned, but I didn’t give up. I fired him as my advisor, found an advisor who believed in me, and earned two graduate degrees. Or when I lost my job due to a corporate acquisition and layoff. Instead of panicking, I took time to write a book and think about what I really wanted to do. Then I found a better job at a higher salary.I learned to try again, and to trydifferentlythe next time to achieve a better result.My wise parents helped Bonnie learn the lesson well, too. From then on, Bonnie and I were friends, exploring many happy trails together while the saddle and I stayed up top!I never saw the nail. Over the years, I’ve sometimes wondered if the “nail under the saddle” was a parental white lie to help get me back on the horse… a way to convince me to mount Bonnie and try again, with Dad holding the reins. Recently, almost fifty years later, I asked my parents if there really had been a nail sticking out. They both agreed emphatically that there was, and Dad told me more about how he had fixed it.And that is why my family says, “Get back on the horse that threw you… but check under the saddle for a nail first!” This great advice has served me well for most of my life.  【词汇过关】请写出下面文单词在文章中的中文意思。1.gerbil [ˈdʒɜːbɪl] n. _____________________________2.pony [ˈpəʊni] n. _____________________________3.dappled [ˈdæpld] adj. _____________________________4.blond [blɒnd] adj. _____________________________5.mane [meɪn] n. _____________________________6.pampered [ˈpæmpəd] adj. _____________________________7.chore [tʃɔː(r)] n. _____________________________8.haul [hɔːl] vt. _____________________________9.bale [beɪl] n. _____________________________10.sack [sæk] n. _____________________________11.stall [stɔːl] n. _____________________________12.wield [wiːld] vt. _____________________________13.pitchfork [ˈpɪtʃfɔːk] n. _____________________________14.wheelbarrow [ˈwiːlbærəʊ] n. _____________________________15.hoof [huːf] n. _____________________________16.veterinary  [ˈvetərəneri] n. _____________________________17.bridle [ˈbraɪdl] n. _____________________________18.strap [stræp] n._____________________________19.saddle [ˈsædl] n. _____________________________20.oval [ˈəʊvl] adj. _____________________________21.bolt [bəʊlt] vi. _____________________________22.horizontal [ˌhɒrɪˈzɒntl] adj. _____________________________23.duck [dʌk] vi. _____________________________24.gallop [ˈɡæləp] n. _____________________________25.scrape [skreɪp] vi. _____________________________26.retreat [rɪˈtriːt] n. _____________________________27.sturdy [ˈstɜːdi] adj. _____________________________28.profusely  [prə'fju:slɪ] adv. _____________________________29.dazed [deɪzd] adj._____________________________30.skull [skʌl] n. _____________________________31.intact [ɪnˈtækt] adj. _____________________________32.retrieve [rɪˈtriːv] vt. _____________________________33.spook [spuːk] vt. _____________________________34.protrude [prəˈtruːd] vi. _____________________________35.jab [dʒæb] n. _____________________________36.penetrate [ˈpenətreɪt] vt. _____________________________37.startle [ˈstɑːtl] vt. _____________________________38.rein [reɪn] n. _____________________________39.figuratively [ˈfɪgjʊrətɪvlɪ] adv. _____________________________40.literally [ˈlɪtərəli] adv. _____________________________41.viscerally [ˈvɪsərəlɪ] adv. _____________________________42.stunned [stʌnd] adj. _____________________________43.acquisition [ˌækwɪˈzɪʃn] n. _____________________________44.emphatically  [ɪm'fætɪklɪ] adv. _____________________________【句子学习】请根据中文句子填空。（一）动作描写

Not only did I have to adapt to my changing body. I also had to deal with my parents’ bitter divorce, a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded suburb. When we moved, my beloved companion, a small brown pony(小马), had to be sold. Feeling helpless and alone, I couldn’t eat or sleep, and I cried all of the time. I missed my family, my home and my pony. Finally, my father, realizing how much I missed my pony, purchased an old red horse for me at a local market. My horse, Cowboy, was without a doubt the ugliest horse in the world. He was pigeon-toed and knock-kneed. But I didn’t care about his faults. I loved him beyond all reasons. I joined a riding club and faced rude comments and mean snickers about Cowboy’s looks. I never let on how I felt, but deep down inside, my heart was breaking. The other members rode beautiful registered horses. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse is judged on appearance, we were quickly out of the game. I finally realized that my only chance to compete would be in the timed-speed events. I chose barrel racing(绕桶赛), an event in which a horse and its rider attempt to complete a triangular pattern around three barrels in the fastest time. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. Needless to say, she didn’t feel threatened when I competed against her at the next show. She didn’t need to. I came in next to last. The bitter memory of Becky’s smirks(得意的笑)made me determined to beat her. For the whole next month, I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena(运动场地). We practiced for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home. On the way home I would be so tired; those five miles seemed twice as long. All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. I sat at the gate and sweated it out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the pattern of barrels, finishing the course with case. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。My turn finally came. No cheers filled the air when I finished my show.  心灵鸡汤精选答案【词汇过关】请写出下面文单词在文章中的中文意思。1.gerbil [ˈdʒɜːbɪl] n. 沙鼠2.pony [ˈpəʊni] n. 小马驹3.dappled [ˈdæpld] adj. 有斑点的4.blond [blɒnd] adj. 金发的5.mane [meɪn] n. 鬃毛6.pampered [ˈpæmpəd] adj. 娇惯的7.chore [tʃɔː(r)] n. 家务活8.haul [hɔːl] vt. 拖拽9.bale [beɪl] n. 大捆10.sack [sæk] n. 麻袋11.stall [stɔːl] n. 马厩12.wield [wiːld] vt. 挥舞13.pitchfork [ˈpɪtʃfɔːk] n. 干草叉14.wheelbarrow [ˈwiːlbærəʊ] n. 手推车15.hoof [huːf] n. 蹄16.veterinary  [ˈvetərəneri] n. 兽医17.bridle [ˈbraɪdl] n. 马笼头18.strap [stræp] n. 袋子19.saddle [ˈsædl] n. 马鞍20.oval [ˈəʊvl] adj. 椭圆形的21.bolt [bəʊlt] vi. 狂奔，窜22.horizontal [ˌhɒrɪˈzɒntl] adj. 水平的23.duck [dʌk] vi. 低头弯腰24.gallop [ˈɡæləp] n. 飞奔25.scrape [skreɪp] vi. 刮擦26.retreat [rɪˈtriːt] n. 后退，撤退27.sturdy [ˈstɜːdi] adj. 结实的28.profusely  [prə'fju:slɪ] adv. 大量地29.dazed [deɪzd] adj. 神志不清的30.skull [skʌl] n. 颅骨31.intact [ɪnˈtækt] adj. 完好无损的32.retrieve [rɪˈtriːv] vt. 找回，取回33.spook [spuːk] vt. 使惊吓34.protrude [prəˈtruːd] vi. 伸出35.jab [dʒæb] n. 刺，戳36.penetrate [ˈpenətreɪt] vt. 刺穿37.startle [ˈstɑːtl] vt. 使大吃一惊38.rein [reɪn] n. 缰绳39.figuratively [ˈfɪgjʊrətɪvlɪ] adv. 形象地40.literally [ˈlɪtərəli] adv. 根据字面意思41.viscerally [ˈvɪsərəlɪ] adv. 发自肺腑地42.stunned [stʌnd] adj. 惊呆了43.acquisition [ˌækwɪˈzɪʃn] n. 收购44.emphatically  [ɪm'fætɪklɪ] adv. 断然地【句子学习】请根据中文句子填空。（一）动作描写

As I urged Cowboy forward, he stumbled, and almost fell, much to the delight of the other riders. I jammed my hat down on my head, stroked Cowboy's big red neck and entered the arena. At the signal, we dashed toward the first barrel, quickly whipped around it and with perfect precision rounded the second and thundered on to the third. We tore around the final curve and shot for the finish line.No cheers filled the air when I finished my show. The end of our run was met with surprised silence. With the sound of my heart pounding in my ears, I heard the announcer call our time. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her proud fancy horse! I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that I'd always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it. I can be the master of my own destiny.
