问题补充：
When studying in a middle school，I read a quote that went something like：“If you live each day as if it were your last，someday you’ll most certainly be right. ”It made a deep 36 on me, and since then, for the past 33 years，I have 37 in the mirror every morning and asked myself：“If today were the last day of my life， 3 8 I want to do what I am about to do today?” And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a 39，I know I need to change something.
Remembering that I’ll be 40 soon is the most important tool I’ve ever known to help me make the big 41 in life because almost everything falls away in the face of death， 42 only what is truly important.
About a year ago I was 43 with cancer. My doctor even advised me to go home and get my affairs 44 order，which is a doctor’s way of telling people to prepare to die. I 45 with that diagnosis all day. 46，at last an advanced test showed that it was a very rare cancer that is 47 with surgery. I had the surgery and I’m fine now.
48 wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all 49 . No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be，because death is very likely the single best invention of 50 . It is life’s change agent. It clears out the old to 51 for the new. Right now the new is you. But someday not too 52 from now，you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic，but it is quite true.
Your time is 53，so don’t waste it living someone else’s 1ife. Don’t be 54 by dogma(教条) —which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner 55 . And most importantly，have the courage to follow your heart.

48.“没有人想死。”所以选D
49.Share “分享”这儿翻译为“死亡是每个人的终点。”
50.death is very likely the single best invention of 50 “死亡是生命的最好的证明。”
51. It clears out the old to 51 for the new. Make way for “为。。。让路”“它清除老的， 为新的让路。”
52.But someday not too 52 from now，you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.
“某天居今也不是太长，你将慢慢变老然后被清除。”long “长的”
53.你的时间是有限的。 Limited “有限的”
54.trapped “被困住的”这儿翻译为“别被教条所限制”
55.Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner 55 .“被让别人的观点淹没你内心的声音”voice“声音，呼声”
