One day in September we were doing repair work on my parents’ old house to get it ready for my youngest daughter’s wedding. We had to   36   a great climbing plant that had grown 37   a roof beam(房梁),so that we could repair the roof and 38   the walls.
When my husband was taking the plant away, he found the 39   of a blackbird that had made its home in the leaves. He then 40   something 41 among that mass of earth and straw of the nest. He broke the earth around it into pieces with his finger tips and, to his 42 ,saw glittering gold. It was a child’s bracelet(手镯).He ran into the house to 43   me.
“You won’t believe that the 44   blackbirds not only steal the best fruit we 45 to feed on,”he said,“but they also want their children to 46   in a cradle of gold!”
When my daughter came over on the eve of the 47 ,we told her about this 48 occurrence.
“Don’t you remember, Mother?”she said with a loud 49 .“When I was eight, you gave me a bracelet that I 50   a few days later while out playing in the yard? It was this one!”
As the bracelet no longer 51   its owner and was dirty, I decided to take it into my safekeeping.
In December of the following year, the young couple’s baby son was baptized(受洗礼).Among the 52 the newborn baby received, I placed his mother’s bracelet, now shining like 53 .I hope that if my grandson 54 loses it, one of the 55   that live in my backyard is somewhere nearby.

My Experience in a Free School

The __29 thing was that practically all the students went to class, __30  very few people stayed up late at night. Only the new people stayed up or _31 class. The new ones always went wild __32, but this never lasted long. The __33 took some getting used to. Our teachers treated us like_34; never did we have to __35 “stand up”,“sit down”,“speak out”.

They really had a __43 time too, designing everything, drawing the blueprints, __44  the angles(角度) and so on. I didn't take __45 .I can't stand it! Besides, I could do the basic things with numbers. That's __46!
__47 I think I am a __48  person for having gone to the school. I can read and write as well as anyone else my age, and I can think better. That's probably a real big __49   between the free school and regular school—the amount of __50.
