5．完形填空
On the morning that I planned to handcuff (给……戴上手铐) my wrist to the White House fence along with other environmental leaders, I woke up, heart racing. I 1 the time in the dark. It was 3 a.m., and I was alone in a friend's guest room just outside Washington, D.C. I turned
on the small bedside 2 and reached for the card my husband and two children had picked out for the 3 , with a photo of a polar bear leaping from one floating ice to the next. The bear's front paws stretched out 4 in midair-——no longer on solid ground, but not quite landed on the next ice yet-——fitting for my first act of 5 disobedience(不服从), which was motivated by a desire to slow global warming, not only for the polar bears, but also for my own children.

Originally, the day was founded for mothers to teach each other how to protect their children.
We might not really know the effect of our 17 for a few decades, though there are moments 18 that our sacrifices are not in vain. The encouraging note from my daughter the night before my first 19 was one of those moments. It made me want to 20 like that polar bear-——and like the early leaders of Mother's Day——-and take a leap.

I come from one of those families where you have to yell at the dinner table to get in a word. Everyone has a strong 1 , and talks at the same time, and no one has a 2 leading
to heated arguments. We often talk or even debate with each other on different topics.
3 a family like mine has made me more
4 about the world around me, making me tend to question anything anyone tells me. But it has also made me realize that I'm not a good listener. And when I say "listening", I'm not
5 to the nodding-your-head-and-
6 -answering-Uh-huh-or-Ooh-I-see variety. I mean the kind of listening where you find yourself deeply
7 with the person you're speaking with, when his story becomes so
8 that your world becomes less about you and more about him. No, I was never very good at that.
I spent summer in South Africa two years ago. I worked for a good non-profit 9 called Noah, which works 10 on behalf of children affected by AIDS. But 11 you asked me what I really did in South Africa, I'd tell you one thing: I listened, and I listened. Sometimes I 12 , but mostly listened.
And had I not spent two months 13 , I might have missed the 14 moment when
a quiet little girl at one of Noah's community centers, orphaned（孤儿）at the age of three, whispered after a long 15 , "I love you."
16 that summer, I knew how to hear. I could sit down with anyone and hear their
17 and nod and respond at the 18 time-but most of the time I was 19 about the next words out of my own mouth. Ever since my summer in South Africa, I have noticed that
it's in those moments when my mouth is closed and my 20 is wide open that I've learned the most about other people, and perhaps about myself.
