I shall never forget the day when the earthquake took place. It was about 5 o’clock in the afternoon and I was 16 to my daughter’s school. Our plan was to go 17 together. I’d stopped at a 18 to get some fresh fruit. We like to have some fruit to eat 19 our swim. I was driving along a high road on the way. 20 my road was another road which was built like a 21 . I was hungry so I put the bag of apples 22 me and started to eat one. 23 I saw the cars in front of me start to 24 from side to side. Then my car started to shake! I didn’t know what was happening. Perhaps something had 25 wrong with my car. I drove a little more slowly and then I 26 the car and at the same moment the road 27 onto the cars in front of me. I found myself in the __28 . I couldn’t move. My legs and feet were hurting badly and I couldn’t move them. All round me was 29 But above me I could hear shouts and a lot of noise. Then I memorized what had happened. I had been 30 an earthquake. For about two hours nobody came. Luckily I could reach the bag of 31 , so at least I had plenty to eat. Then I heard people 32 towards me. A team of people had come to 33 if anyone was under the 34 road. I called out, “I’m here!” I heard a shout. Soon a stranger climbed to my car. “How are you 35 ?”He asked. “Not too bad,”I said. They didn’t get me out until the next morning.

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to 26 in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the 27 ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too 28 for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of 29 .
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I sat down beside her. “Mom, I have a question to ask you. Is there 30 between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice. She didn’t answer immediately. She 31 her head and continued to sew the quilt.
I was very worried because I thought I had 32 her. I was 33 and I didn’t know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words:
“Susan,” she said thoughtfully, “Look at this thread．Sometimes it 34 , but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt 35 . If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread．It can hardly be seen 36 , but it’s really there. Love is 37 .”
I listened carefully but I 38 her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly 39 seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked 40 . It seemed both of them had had a serious illness. After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father 41 on the country road．
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
“Susan, don’t 42 me.” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.” 43 his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and 44 . But from this experience, I understand that love is just 45 in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

When Mike told me he was leaving I felt like a vase which had just broken. There were pieces of me all over the tidy floor. He kept talking, telling me why he was leaving, 31 it was for the best, I could do better, it was his 32 and not mine. I had heard it before many times and yet somehow was still hurt; perhaps one cannot 33 such pain.
He left and I tried to 34 my life. I filled the kettle (水壶), put it on to boil, took out my old red cup and 35 the coffee powder falling into the bone china. Somehow when the kettle piped its finishing warning, I 36 not to hear it. That’s what Mike’s leaving had been like, sudden and with a(n) 37 end. I would rather just 38 in uncertainty than have things finished. I laughed at myself. Just about a cup of coffee, I must be getting 39 .
And yet it was a young woman who 40 back at me from the mirror, a young woman full of 41 and hope, a young woman with bright eyes just waiting to see the world. 42 , there are more important things. More important than 43 , I insist to myself firmly. The lid goes back on the coffee just like closing on the whole Mike experience.
He didn’t 44 my dreams as I feared that night. 45 , I am flying far across fields and woods, 46 on those below me. I fly free until I meet another bird who flies with me in perfect harmony. I realize with some 47 that there is a bird out there for me, there is another person, not necessarily a lover perhaps just a 48 , but there is someone out there who is my soul mate. I think about being a broken 49 again and realize that I have gathered myself back together, what Mike has is 50 a little part of my time in earth, a little understanding of my physical being. He has merely, a little piece of me.
