問題詳情：

Jerry was always in a good mood and always had something positive to say. One day I went up to Jerry and asked him, “How do you do it?” Jerry replied, “Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it.”

       Several years later, I heard that Jerry did something you are never supposed to do in a restaurant business: he left the back door open one morning and was held up at gunpoint by three armed robbers. While trying to open the safe, his hand, shaking from nervousness, slipped off the combination（開啟號碼鎖的號碼組合）. The robbers panicked and shot him. Luckily, Jerry was found quickly and rushed to the local hospital. After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, Jerry was released from the hospital with small pieces of the bullets still in his body.

       I saw Jerry about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, “If I were any better, I’d be twins.” “Weren’t you scared? Did you lose consciousness?” I asked. Jerry replied, “As I lay on the floor, I remembered that I had two choices—I could choose to live, or I could choose to die. I chose to live. The nurses were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read—He’s a dead man!”

       “What did you do ?” I asked. “Well, there was a big, strong nurse shouting questions at me,” said Jerry. “She asked if I was allergic（過敏的）to anything.” .“Yes,” I replied. The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply,. I took a deep breath and yelled, “Bullets!”

       Over their laughter, I told them. “I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead!” Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully.
