My ears are recently full of joyous remarks from my friends such as, “Oh, Beckham is so handsome, so cool, that I can’t help falling in love with him!” or “What perfect skills he has!” Yeah, I 26 to some degree, though I sometimes do want to 27 them how much they know about Beckham, apart from his 28 and how much they know about football apart from 29 goals. It seems funny that we are 30 for things, with which we are unfamiliar or about which we are 31 , but we all, my friends as well as I, consider this one of life’s 32 .
We need these pleasures to brighten up our lives. But that doesn't amount to craziness or nonsense. As an old saying goes: “Don't judge a book by its cover.” We 33 not judge anything from its appearance. We should all know, it is one’s good 34 and great contribution that make one a star and unforgettable. Therefore we’d better say 35 about Beckham’s good looks.
If we close our eyes, falling in deep thought, we can find that the things that move us to be really happy or sad have a 36 meaning. If we don't go deeper and are just satisfied with 37 things, sooner or later we will find that we have not really gained anything because our first 38 has blinded and misled us, and we’ll remain ignorant 39 we realize that and make some changes.
It is believed that thinking and going deeper than before is a sign of great progress. If one day we are willing to go deeper into everything, no matter how much it pains us, we will finally prove how much we have 40 up, how much more sensible, mature, and intelligent we have become.

One day，when I was leaving the teachers’ office，it was in complete silence and frightening 50 ．At my dormitory gate，I was startled （使惊奇）to find there still 51 a little light glimmering in the darkness，so faint but yet so clear．Just under the 52 of the light，I went to the room without any difficulty．They were in sound sleep，leaving the 53 light on in the calm world．Tears rolled down my cheeks．

But now, finally, she became totally 4 —unable to speak, walk, eat or dress on her own.

I was sad not only at the 7 loss of my mother, but that she and my baby would never know each other. Her doctor did not 8 any hope; they told us her time was up.
We brought Mother 9 to her own bed in her own house. As 10 as I could, I sat beside her and talked to her about the baby moving inside me.
On February 3, 1989, at about the same time my labor(分娩) 11 , Mother opened her eyes. When they told me this at the 12 , I called her home, “Mom, listen. The baby is coming! You’re going to have a new grandchild!”
“Yes! Yes! I know!”
Four beautiful words! The first 13 words she’d spoken in months!
When I 14 again an hour later, the nurse at her house told the 15 message: Mom sat up, smiling, with her oxygen tubes removed. When I brought Jacob home. Mom was sitting in her chair and 15 to welcome him. Tears of joy blocked my vision(视野) as I 17 my son in her arms and she clucked (发出咯咯声) at him. They 18 .
Then she quietly clipped back into a coma (昏迷) and 19 peacefully. Memories of my son’s birth will always be bittersweet(甜中带苦的) for me, but it was then that I learned love has the 20 to overcome any worries and any sorrow. And love can last forever.
