Question

完形填空。

When I was in middle school, I was one of the smaller players on the basketball team. In our first game of the season, we were   1   to face a good team, all of whom were tall guys. Naturally, at my   2  , it would have been easy to be   3   by our competitors.      On game day, my basketball coach called me over to him. He was a strong and tough coach, and in his    4   rough manner said, "Joel, you're not that   5  , but let me tell you that size doesn't matter. Don't be afraid. What   6   is right down in here." He pointed his finger at his   7   as he continued, "Joel, you've got a big heart, and you're to   8   it this year."      When I heard the coach's   9  , I stood taller than usual! I thought to myself: The coach believes in me! My confidence  10  and I played better that year than I'd ever done before.      It's  11  what we can achieve when we know somebody really believes in us. That coach took a little time to make a big  12 . He took time to make me confident in myself. If we're going to  13  the best in people, we need to sow seeds of  14 .      As the saying goes, "Love looks for a way of being constructive."  15 , love looks for ways to help improve somebody else's life.      When people are  16  us, they should leave better off than they were before. People should feel  17  and inspired after spending any time with you and me  18  feeling discouraged or defeated.      Remember, there's  19  greater investment (投資) in life than in being a people builder. Relationships  20   much more to us than our achievements.
