It was my birthday last Thursday. I decided to 36 by inviting a few friends out to supper. I chose a restaurant in a 37 part of town. It is one of my favorite restaurants because the food is good and the waiters are friendly. It is 38 ever crowded, because not many people know about it, so it is not usually 39 to book(预定) a table. In any case, Thursday is not a busy evening 40 .
When we entered the restaurant, we were surprised to find it completely 41 . I looked around but no 42 was free. One of the waiters recognized me. He came across and explained the situation. “A party of tourists(旅游团) came in about half an hour ago,” he said. “It was like an invasion (侵略). 43 the place was full! We can hardly manage (对付，应付).”
The waiter then pointed to a table in the corner. “The people there are about to 44 ,” he said. “Just hold on and you’ll 45 a place there.” He was right. Fifteen minutes later, the people 46 the corner table paid their 47 , got up and left. I led my friends across and we all sat down.
48 , our table was almost out of sight. We tried to call the attention of the waiter who sent us there, 49 he, like all the other waiters, was 50 with the party of tourists. They ordered lots of food. At last, an hour later, the tourists were finishing their meal and looking very 51 with life. The waiter, now very tired, appeared at our table. I advised my friends about the best dishes and finally the waiter went off with our 52 .
A few moments later he returned to our table. We could tell from his face that he had 53 news for us. 54 a little sorry he told us that there was no meat or fish. “All we can 55 you,” he said, “is an omelet (煎蛋卷) !”

Fifteen years spent in the field of education has provided me with many treasured moments. One of the most unforgettable 36 when I was teaching second grade 10 years ago.
In May I decided to plan something special for the children; a Mother’s Day tea. We had put our 37 together to come up with ideas of how to 38 our mothers. We practiced singing songs, memorized poems and wrote cards. We decided to hold our tea the Friday before Mother’s Day. I was surprised and 39 to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I 40 invited my own mother.
Finally, the big day arrived. Each child lined up at our classroom door, 41 the arrival of his or her mom. 42 it got closer to starting time, I looked around and my eyes quickly found Jimmy. His mother hadn’t 43 up and he was looking upset.
I took my mother 44 the hand and walked over to Jimmy. “Jimmy,” I said, “I have a bit of problem here and I was 45 if you could keep my mother 46 while I’m busy.”
My mom and Jimmy sat at a table. Jimmy 47 my mom her treats, presented her with the gift I had made, just as we had 48 the day before. Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep 49 .
Last year, I took a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy, I had the students complete an outline of the day’s 50 and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students’ booklets and checked them to see if 51 was completed. When I came to Jimmy’s 52 , he had written “Remember our Mother’s Day tea we had in second grade, Mrs, Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too.”
I told him I really enjoyed what he had written. He looked rather embarrassed and 53 his own thanks and walked away. Suddenly he ran bark and gave me a big hug.
“Thanks again. No one even knew my mother didn’t 54 it.”
I ended my workday with a hug from a teenage boy who 55 stopped hugging teachers years ago.

Unless you spend _ 39 _ time together, talking on the phone, writing letters, doing things together, friendships will die 40 .
