My friend , Sally , had a failed marriage in the past . After divorce , her parents gave the deepest protection and care to her by helping her 36 the child and offering 37 aid . Her parents’ 38 made her pull herself together and 39 the man who had hurt her before .
Nonetheless , her father , an honest and upright old man , after hearing his ex-son-in-law got 40 in his company , felt extremely 41 and went to his company to 42 his boss why such a playboy could get promoted . The whole office fell into a 43 immediately and many staff just looked 44 . The old man stood silently in the office with his bands 45 and eyes tearing .
That night , Sally cried heavily in front of me . I asked her whether it was her father’s 46 deeds that made her feel embarrassed . But she said that she felt 47 about her dad and that though the rest of the whole world betrayed her , her old father would still 48 her up and help her get the 49 she deserved , just as when she was young and the neighboring boy grabbed her ball , her father would get it back for her . 50 , this changed world was no longer the stage for her old father and his deeds became funnily out-of-date . No one managed to see the real and ever-lasting love to his daughter behind his 51 rude behaviors .
Although we have grown up , our parents still would not like us to 52 a bit and try all means to 53 us without caring whether what they do is awkward and stupid or not .
Who in the world would love us so deeply and relentlessly without asking for any 54 ? Only our 55 !

At the grocery store, we some apples—red, green and yellow ones. Back home, I told Adam,“It’s time to your question.” I put one apple of each on the table. Then I looked at Adam, who had a look on his face.

Once upon a time there lived an old man in a nice cottage with a large garden. The old man was seen his flowers all the time. They were so well-tended that every passer-by could not but for a glance.
One day a young man went by the garden. He gazed at the splendid garden, in admiration at the beauty of these sceneries. Then, suddenly he the old gardener was blind. , the young man asked, “Why are you busy tending these flowers every day which you can’t in fact?” The old man smiled and answered that “ I can tell you reasons. First I was a when I was young, and I really like this job. Second, although I can’t see these flowers, yet I can them. Third，I can smell sweetness of them. As to the last one, that’s .
“Me? But you don’t know me,” responded the young man .
“Yeah, it’s that I don’t know you. But I know everyone knows flowers and would never them down. I know the beauty of my garden will get many people into a good . In the meantime, it also a chance to me to have a word with you here and to enjoy the happiness these flowers have brought us.”
The old man’s astonished me. The blind man grows flowers and them as a link of minds so as to make enjoy the sunshine in spring. Isn’t it one kind of happiness？
I believe every flower has with which they can see the kindness of the man’s heart. The blind man grows flowers in his heart. Though to see the beauty of blossoming, he surely can hear the voice of it, I suppose.

When I walk through the streets of San Francisco’s business districts, white people stare at me as if I were a circus clown.
Their staring eyes don’t see that I get ________ A’s in school, or that I am a captain of the football team, or that I belong to ______youth organizations. All they see is that I am 6-foot-4, young, black, and male---a potential _______to them.
White men look at me as if I am up to no good, or as if they are ________to me. White women just look at me with________, say, sometimes they cross the street when they see my friends and me coming, or walk in the street and only get back on the sidewalk after we ________.
Many people come to San Francisco to get away from the stereotypes(成见) of the cities they were born and ________ in. The majority of the blacks and Latinos who live in this city don’t have that luxury.
How can you feel at home when people are__________telling you to get back to Africa or Mexico ----or just back to “where you belong”?
My way of dealing with this kind of thing has ________over the years. In the past, when my friends and I would walk the streets and a hundred pairs of white eyes would look at me as if we were the lowest form of dirt, it would make us angry enough to hurt or _______them.
Now I’m more likely to use ________ to defend myself against those eyes. To women who clutch their purse in terror, I’ll say, “Man, I ain’t gonna do anything to you, I got money in my pocket!” My cousin has even started wearing a T-shirt _______ in big letters, “NO, WHITE LADY, I DON'T’ WANT YOUR PURSE.”
The most painful thing is when we get those______ stares from black people, especially elderly ones. I want o say to them, “We’re black, too. Why would we do something to you?”
Usually I react more _______to all of this than a lot of my friends do. Some of them, so brainwashed, just think it’s part of life and that there is nothing you can do.
But for me, that’s not good enough. I just can’t stand it when every day a hundred pair of eyes tell you you’re not__________.
