Question

Mr. Glen is a millionaire. Five years ago, after returning from abroad to his motherland, he  41   his small company. Speaking of success, Glen often tells us a story about his extra expensive “school” fee. He always _42__ his success to it.
At that time, Glen, who already got a Ph.D. degree,  43   to return to the homeland, starting a company. Before leaving, he bought a Rolex watch with the   44 made through years of work after school and the scholarships. At the airport he had to accept the  45 customs check. The watch on his wrist was also demanded to be  taken down for  46 . Glen knew that carrying the specific goods out had to pay the tax, and he worried about paying  47  for his watch. So when he was checked, he told a lie that his watch was a 48  fake（假貨）. When he was  49  of his “smarts”, immediately, in the presence of Glen, the officers hit the watch, 50  cost nearly 100,000, into pieces  51  hearing Glen’s words. Glen was  52 . Before he understood why, he was taken to the office to be examined 53  . For many times of entry-exit  54  he knew that only those people in the “blacklist” would “enjoy” this special treatment. The officers looked over everything carefully in the box, and  55  him no matter what time of entry and exit he must accept the check and if  56  reusing and carrying fake and shoddy goods, he would be  57  according to law! Suddenly, his face turned red, and he had nothing in mind after boarding the plane for long.
After returning to the homeland, he often told the story to his family, and his employees, too. He said that this made a deep  58  on him, because the additional high “school” fee that he had ever paid made him realize the value of  59  , which he would remember as the  60  of his success forever.
