   If you could have one superpower, what would it be?

Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds, see through walls, or have superhuman strength may sound silly, but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life.

Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.

They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess: the power to make a difference in the lives of others.

We’re not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor. Your lives are busy enough doing homework, playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams. But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more. Volunteer or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’t be a bystander. Get involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older. But why not start now?

Our own experience working together on health, development, and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives. It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.

   As everyone grows, they realize there will always be someone who is better. I learned this _______ in the second year in high school. The shock this experience brought was so great that I felt my _______ was nothing left. That was all it took；one person _______ everything.

Her name is Jenny. She was the girl who _______ raised her hand and had useful comments  about everything. When teachers needed challenging problems to be answered, they _______ answers from her. And if students needed _______ they went to consult her. I didn't _______ her, but I admitted her presence annoyed me. In the first year, as a model student, I was the person everyone _______ and all the teachers trusted. Then she came out of _______! We also had two __________ together. There I got to see what everybody thought of her. When an exam finished, it became a __________ that she got the top grade and it didn't __________ to my classmates whether I was right there, __________ I also got an excellent grade. They would cross me and __________ her! I was left being ignored. __________ , I didn't feel like trying anymore.

I stopped trying to put on a show because no one was __________ anymore. Later, she was called to make a（n）   __________ at the graduation ceremony and she talked of her hard work in it. I realized all her hard work got her there, not her desire to __________ . It finally hit me that Jenny __________ the attention she got. She showed me how big the world is and how __________ the world I used to live in. I'll do my best because I know it will pay off.
