Have you ever been tempted to cut a corner or to take the easiest route, though you know it may not necessarily be the best one? Or have you ever made a【C1】______because it was quick and simple,【C2】______that it might come back to bite you later?
I appreciate a parable (寓言) Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard told about the【C3】______of taking the easy route. It is a story about a wild duck. Though life was difficult【C4】______, the beautiful creature【C5】______the boundless heavens and the endless stretches of wilderness. Soaring about treetops and towns, the duck was a symbol of freedom to its tame counterparts(相对物), who could not fly.
One evening during fall migration, he【C6】______to enter a barnyard where a farmer was feeding his ducks. The beautiful creature ate the【C7】______the farmer sprinkled (撒) about and liked it so much that he stayed the night in a bed of warm straw. He ate the ducks’ corn again the next day. And the next. And the next...
When spring came, he heard his old companions flying overhead and an almost forgotten longing deep within him awoke. The duck had lost his instinct for freedom over the【C8】______winter. Now he longed to【C9】______his comrades in the sky, but he had grown fat and was unable to fly. The wild duck had become a tame duck. The easy way through our problems, though【C10】______, may not be the best way. Always remember: The only place where you will find success before【C11】______is in the dictionary! It’ s always easier to borrow than to save: easier to jump in now than to do the hard work of planning: easier to make【C12】______than to do it right: easier to remain the same than to【C13】______changes.
【C14】______you want to fly, you may have to pay a price. But【C15】______is worth it at any cost! Are you ready to soar?
