    One day, an old carpenter(木匠) was ready to leave. He told his boss about his plans to live a more _________ life. He would miss the salary (薪水), but he needed to rest from work.

The boss was sorry to see his worker go and asked if he could build just one more _________ .The carpenter said yes, but it was easy to see that his _________ was not in his work at all. He did his work in a careless way. It was a bad way to _________ his lifelong work. When the carpenter finished his work, the boss handed the front-door key to him. “This is _________ house,” he said, “my gift to you.”

What a _________ ! If he knew that he would build his own house, he would do it _________ . Now he had to live in a poorly-built home. This wasn’t what he thought before.

It’s the same for all of us, too. We live our lives in a distracted(不经心的) way, keeping alive(活着) but not living. At important times, we do not put our _________ into what we do. Then we look at the house we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built for ourselves. If we knew what was happening earlier, we would do things in a different way.

Think of yourself as the _________ . Think about your house. Each day, you do some little things for your house. Build it __________ . It is the only life you will ever have. Even if you live it for only one day more, that day needs to be gracious(优雅的) and with dignity (尊严).
