题目内容:
There once was a master who went to India. In those times, we didn’t have airplanes or railways or many other kinds of transportation that we do now. So the master went to India on foot. He had never been to India before. And when he got there, he saw a lot of fruit. In India, they have plenty of fruit to sell, but much of it is _____________________because they can't grow much_____________________ the water situation. So he saw one basket, a big basket of some very red, long fruit. And it was the cheapest in the shop, not expensive___________________ .
So he went up and asked, "How much per kilo?" And the shopkeeper said, "Two rupees.” Two rupees in India is _____________________; it’s like dirt(灰尘, 泥土). So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it. After he ate some of it, his mouth watered and burned. His _____________________watered and were burning, and his head was burning and his face became _____________________ . As he coughed and choked and gasped for breath, he _____________________up and down, saying, “Ah! Ah! Ah!"
But he still _____________________to eat the fruit! Some people looking at him shook their heads and said. “You're crazy, man. Those are chilies! You can’t eat so many; they’re not good for you! People use them as a condiment (调味品),but only a little bit to put into food for _____________________. You can't just eat them by the handful like that; they're not ______________________.But the stupid master said, "No, I can't stop! I paid money for them and now I’ll eat them. It’s my money!"
And you think that master was stupid, right?____________________we sometimes do a lot of things like that. We invest (投资)money, time or effort in a relationship, business or job. And ______________________ it’s been a long time, bitter experience tells us it won’t work, and we know there is ______________________hope that things will change , we still continue just because we’ve spent money, time, effort and love______________________ it. If so, we are wrong. Just like the man who ate the chilies and suffered so much but couldn't stop because he didn't want to waste the money he’d paid.
