When one hitchhikes — travelling by getting lifts from passing vehicles without paying, one   41   long hours either waiting at a likely intersection (岔路口) or   42   heavily down the road, and when I was so engaged, I found   43   in singing songs or in reciting the many poems I had memorized, or   44   the latest postcards I had added to my art collection.

I was in many ways the   45   boy on the road, in other ways the richest, and I was always happy to be on the road meeting new people, hearing new stories and seeing new   46  .

So it was with me when I was at sixty — I was still optimistic with so many   55   before me. It seems that I was born to   56   at the world, and such men do not write tragedies. (悲剧)

The simple fact seems that whenever I saw that   57   road outside my house, I was   58     to explore what it was like. What Walt Whitman once said would always push me to go on : “Afoot and light-hearted I take to（走向）the open   59  , healthy, free, the world before me, the long brown path before me leading wherever I   60  .” That makes a difference to my life.
