I was now five, and still I showed no much interest in things except with my toes（脚趾）. I could not look after myself,   35  my father took care of me. I used to lie on my back all the time in the kitchen. I was   36 , imprisoned（监禁） in a world of my own, unable to communicate with others.
Then, suddenly, it happened on the afternoon of a cold December day. All the family were gathered round the big kitchen fire. Mona and Paddy were drawing funny animals, using a bright piece of yellow chalk. It was the chalk that   37  me so much. I had never seen anything like it before.
Suddenly, I wanted to do what my sister was doing. Then without thinking or knowing exactly what I was doing, I   38  out and took the chalk out of my sister’s hand, with my left foot. It is a puzzle（迷惑）to many people as well as to   39 . I held the chalk tightly between my toes and made a wild scribble（乱涂）with it on the board. Next moment I stopped, not knowing what to do with the chalk next, hardly knowing how it   40  there. Then I looked up and realized that everyone was looking at me   41 . My mother came in. Her eyes looked from my face down to my   42 , then she took another piece of chalk from Mona, and drew the single letter “A” on the floor in front of me. “Copy that, Christy.” She said. I tried to do the same action, but I   43 . “Try again, Chris.” she whispered in my ear. I tried another two more times. I drew one side of the letter, then the other. It looked ugly, but I   44  to make it finally. I had done it! True! I couldn’t speak with my mouth, but now I would speak through something more   45  than spoken words. That one letter was my   46  to a new world, my key to mental freedom.

Throughout our lives, we will have to make many decisions. Some will be small and unimportant, but others, such as where to go to school, which job to choose to do, and whether or not to buy a house, will be very important. It is this type of decision that we must be very careful about making. I think a person should never make such an important decision alone.

    One reason for my opinion is that I believe "two heads are better than one". When we have an important decision to make we can benetit from the advice and experience of others . Another reason for not making big decisions alone is that often these decisions do not affect only us. If someone else is going to be affected by the decision, for example , your father or mother, that person should be able to speak out his opinion and take part in the decision- making process.

    These are only two of the reasons for never making an important decision alone, but I feel that they are the most important ones. By doing this, we not only show others our respect but also benefit from their knowledge and experience. In this way, we are to make better decision.
