Sometimes I really doubt 36 there is love between my parents．Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me．They don’t act in the romantic ways 37 I read in books or I see on TV．In their opinion, “I love you” is 38 luxurious for them to say．Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question．Finally my father has a bad temper．When he’s very tired from the hard work, it is easy for him to lose his temper．
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt．I silently sat down beside her and looked at her．
“Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low 39
My mother stopped her work and 40 her head with surprise in her eyes．She didn’t answer immediately．Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt．
I was very worried because I thought I had 41 her．I was in a great embarrassment and I didn’t know what I should do． 42 at last I heard my mother say the following words:
“Susan,” she said 43 , “Look at this thread．Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt．The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable．If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread．It can hardly be seen 44 or anytime, but it’s really there． 45 is inside．”
I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her 46 the next spring．At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously．My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month．When they returned from the hospital, they both looked very pale．It seemed both of them had had a 47 illness．
After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road．My father had 48 been so gentle．It seemed that they were the most harmonious couple．Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees．The sun gently glistened 49 the leaves．All of these 50 the most beautiful picture in the world．
The doctor had said my father would recover 51 two months．But after two months he still couldn’t walk 52 ．All of us were worried about him．
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day．
“Susan, don’t worry about me．” he said gently．“To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom．I like this kind of life．” 53 his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply．
Once I thought love 54 flowers, gifts and sweet kisses．But from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life．Love is inside, 55 life strong and warm．．

As a teacher, I think all students were dear to me, especially Mark.
Mark was very talkative, I had to him repeatedly that talking without was not acceptable. Every time I had to correct him for misbehaving. “ Thank you for correcting me, Sister!” I became accustomed to hearing it many times a day.
Once my was running out when Mark talked again, I two pieces of tape(胶带) and made a big X with them over his mouth. When I the tape, he still thanked me for correcting him.
One Friday, I asked the students to the names of the other students on two pieces, leaving a between each name, and then write down the thing they should say about others.
Then I all the lists and gave each student his or her list. Soon the entire class was smiling. “ I never knew that anything to anyone!” “ I didn’t know liked me so much!” Mark said, “Thank you for keeping me , Sister.”
Later Mark joined the army and was in Vietnam. After the funeral(葬礼), his father showed me something on Mark. It was pieces of notebook paper that had been taped and folded many times, on which were the good things that Mark’s classmates had said about him. His mother said that he behaved better and better my list.
Mark’s classmates told me that they kept their own lists in ways. Hearing this , I finally cried.
Sometimes the things could mean the most to others. We forget when life will end. So the people you love and care about, before it is too late.

Optimism and pessimism are both powerful forces. Each of us must choose which we want to ______ our future and our expectations. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or ______. It’s our decision: from which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in ______ or down in desperation?
I believe in the upward look. I choose to ______ the positive and skip right over the negative.
An optimistic attitude is not a luxury(奢侈品); it’s a(n) ______. The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people. ______, negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations ______ themselves; they become a self-fulfilling prophecy (预言). Pessimism creates a dark place where no one wants to live.
Years ago, I drove into a service station to get some gas. It was a beautiful day, and I was feeling great. As I walked into the station to pay for the gas, the attendant said to me, “How do you feel?” That seemed like a(n) ______ question, but I felt fine and told him so. “You don’t look well,” he replied. This ______ me completely by surprise. A little ______ confidently, I told him that I had ______ felt better. Without hesitation, he continued to tell me how bad I looked and that my skin appeared yellow.
By the time I left the service station, I was feeling a little ______. About a block away, I ______ over to the side of the road to look at my face in the mirror. How did I feel? Was I affected with jaundice(黄疸)? Was everything all right? By the time I got home, I was beginning to feel a little nauseous(恶心). Did I have a bad liver? Had I ______ some rare disease?
On another beautiful day, when I went into that gas station, feeling _____ again, I figured out what had happened. The place had recently been painted a bright, distasteful ______, and the light reflecting ______ the walls made everyone inside look as though they had hepatitis(肝炎)! I wondered how many other folks had ______ the way I did. I had let one short conversation with a total ______ change my attitude for an entire day. He told me I looked sick, and before long, I was actually feeling sick. That single ______ observation had a great effect on the way I felt and acted.
The only thing more powerful than negativism is a word of optimism and hope. When a whole culture adopts an upward look, incredible things can be accomplished.
