Cloze 1 In December 2004, I had just become a professional photographer and was working on a project about the Chao-Ley tribe on a small island in southern Thailand. One morning, I was due to 1 with a group of six Chao-Ley fishermen in a small boat. The sea was totally 2 . About 20 minutes after our departure, one of the fishermen pointed to a small white spot far in the distance. It was getting bigger and bigger very quickly. This was a tsunami wave 3 through the ocean like a tornado. We were 4 . I began to feel really 5 . At some point the captain took control. He told the six of us where to sit, so we would 6 the boat. My __7__ was in my backpack. I wanted to 8 the scene, but I couldn't. Any 9 would imbalance the boat. Suddenly there was a huge noise. The giant wave hit the boat, but in the split second of 10 , the incredibly skilled captain 11 to swerve(使突然转向) us up and onto the wave. We 12 it for a few seconds. Then the boat glided from the 13 of the wave down into safe waters. I've been going back to Southeast Asia almost every year since. The 14 I wanted to take on the boat remains "the one that got away"—I think every photographer has one.

So frustrated was I that I reached out to a dear and 1 friend to ask for advice on how to let go of 2 . And then, I went for a long walk. As I walked, I 3 my anger and what may have caused it. I heard my friend's voice saying "drop into the heart space", a space that love booms and if we allow it, it will 4 our hurts. It is my 5 that hate cannot grow where love 6 . I allowed my mind to follow that love and to review what the 7 of my anger was. I realized my anger is the result of many emotions that are normal. There is a 8 of being overwhelmed, frustrated, tired and there is sorrow 9 as well. And perhaps the sorrow is the biggest one.
