Question

Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so then         ? Here is an example.
There was a farmer who        corn （玉米） all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market. Then each time his corn was chosen as the        and won the first prize.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something          about how he grew it. The farmer       his seed（做种子的) corn to his neighbors.
"How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?" the reporter asked.  "You know they are taking part in the        with you each year. "
"Why sir " said the farmer "didn't you know? The        picks up pollen {花粉)from the corn and moves it quickly from field to field. If nay neighbors grow        corn cross-pollination (异花传粉) will affect the quality of my corn. So if I want to grow good corn f must        my neighbors to grow good corn. "
The farmer knows much about the connection of life. His corn cannot improve        his neighbor's corn improves.
As a great man says "We make a living by what we        ; we make a life by what we give." We can't       without food clothes and many other things. However a meaningf~I1 life is not decided by how much we can get        by how much we can give others. Giving instead of taking makes us          from other animals.  So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find        in their life.
