I moved to a new neighborhood two months ago. In the house with a large  31  across the road lived a taxi driver, a single parent with two school-aged children. At the end of the day, he would  32  his taxi on the road. I  33  why he did not park it in the garage.

Then one day I learnt that he had another car in his garage. In the afternoon he would come home  34  work, leave his taxi and go out for his  35  affairs in his other car, not in his taxi. I felt it was a 36  .

I was curious to see his personal car but did not make it until I 37  to be outside one evening two weeks  38 , when the garage door was 39  and he drove out in his “own” car: a Rolls-Royce（劳斯莱斯）! It shook me completely  40  I realized what that meant. You see, he was a taxi driver. But  41  inside, he saw himself as something else: a Rolls-Royce owner and a（n）  42  . He drove others in his taxi but himself and his children in his Rolls-Royce. The world looked at his taxi and 43  him a taxi driver. But for him, a taxi was just something he drove for a living. Rolls-Royce was something he drove for a (n）  44  .

Yet often, we base our entire happiness and success on how much bigger and better a 48  we have. And we ignore our Rolls-Royce, by  49  it dusty in our garage. We should focus more on  50 we are than what we do!
