A mother and daughter living in my community are two of the most unfriendly people I have ever come across in my life. They are totally separated, mixing with 36 .

At the age of 13，I visited a doctor with my parents. As I sat in the examining chair，the doctor looked into my 31 .“She did inherit (继承) it，”he said with coldness.“You need to be prepared. There is no 32 for this disease.”
My father 33 a gene which，in most cases，results in blindness. I’d inherited the gene. He gradually 34 his eyesight and so did I. At last we were both 35 blind—he was fifty-seven years old， 36 I was only twenty-eight.
My world 37 as the darkness fell， 38 the dreams my husband and I had for us and for our three little boys. But 39 I tried to find some hope and 40 ，my eyes were opened to a new realization.
My father had 41 me not just failing eyesight，but an example of 42 in the face of hardships as well. We were all living in Bolivia in 1964 when he decided to 43 the family to America. He worked tirelessly to 44 the right of living in the US.
Alone in the States，he 45 his helplessness and lack of fluency in English. He managed to rent a small apartment，and nine months later，sent airline tickets for my mom，my brother and me.
Decades later， 46 an American citizen，I look back at what he'd shown me. He set an example proving that determination is important to success. His 47 taught me valuable lessons for my own path in the darkness.
I did the same as I stepped into a 48 world. I fulfilled (完成) my own 49 as a wife，mom，Sunday school teacher and Spanish interpreter. What I inherited from my father helped me to 50 my life in a whole new light.

Once upon a time there lived an old man in a nice cottage with a large garden. The old man was seen 16 his flowers all the time. They were so well-tended that every passer-by could not but 17 for a glance.
One day a young man went by the garden. He gazed at the splendid garden, 18 in admiration at the beauty of these sceneries. Then, suddenly he 19 the old gardener was blind. 20 , the young man asked, “Why are you busy tending these flowers every day which you can’t 21 in fact?” The old man smiled and answered that “ I can tell you 22 reasons. First I was a 23 when I was young, and I really like this job. Second, although I can’t see these flowers, yet I can 24 them. Third，I can smell sweetness of them. As to the last one, that’s 25 .
“Me? But you don’t know me,” responded the young man 26 .
“Yeah, it’s 27 that I don’t know you. But I know everyone knows flowers and would never 28 them down. I know the beauty of my garden will get many people into a good 29 . In the meantime, it also 30 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 31 astonished me. The blind man grows flowers and 32 them as a link of minds so as to make 33 enjoy the sunshine in spring. Isn’t it one kind of happiness？
I believe every flower has 34 with which they can see the kindness of the man’s heart. The blind man grows flowers in his heart. Though 35 to see the beauty of blossoming（开花）, he surely can hear the voice of it, I suppose.
