完形填空。   My son Joey was born with club (弯曲的 )  feet. The doctors assured us that with     1    he would be
able to walk normally-but would never    2   very well.  The first three years of his life were spent in surgery,
casts and braces.  By
the time he was eight,you wouldn"t know he had a problem when you saw him walk.
      The children in our    3    ran around as most children do during play,and Joey would jump right in and
run and    4    , too. We never told him that he     5    wouldn"t be able to run as well as the other children.
So he didn"t know.
     In      6     grade he decided to go out for the cross-country team. Every day he trained with the team.
He worked harder and ran more than     7    of the others-perhaps he     8   that the abilities that seemed to
come naturally to so  many others did not come      9     to him.     10    the entire team runs,       11      the
top seven runners have the potential to score points for the school. We didn"t tell him he probably would
never make the team,so he didn"t      12    .
      He       13      to run four to five miles a day,every day-even the day he had a 103-degree fever.  I
was       14  , so I went to look for him after school.  I found him running     15   .  I asked him how he felt. " Okay,"he said.  He had two
more miles to go. The    16    ran down his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever. Yet he looked
straight    17  and kept running. We never told him he couldn"t run with a 103-degree fever. So he didn"t
know.
       Two weeks later,the names of the team runners were    18  . Joey numbered six on the list.  Joey
had       19      the team. He was in seventh grade-the other six team members were all eighth graders. We
never told him he      20   expect to make the team. We never told him he couldn"t. We never told him he
couldn"t do it so he didn"t know. He just did it.
