I take the firm position that parents do not owe their children a college education. If they can __1 it, they can certainly send them to the best universities. But they must not feel guilty if they can’t. If the children really want to go, they’ll find a 2 out. There are plenty of loans（货款）and scholarships for the bright and 3 ones who can’t afford to pay.
When children grow up and want to get married, their parents do not owe them a down payment on a house. They do not have the 4 to baby-sit their grandchildren. If they want to do it,it must be considered a(n) 5 not an obligation（责任，义务）.
Do parents owe their children anything? Yes,they owe them a great deal.
One of their obligations is to give their children personal 6 .A child who is constantly made to feel stupid and unworthy, constantly 7 to brighter brothers, sisters, or cousins will become so _8_ , so afraid of failing that he（or she）won’t try at all .Of course they should be __9__ corrected when they do wrong, but it’s often better to let children learn their mistakes by themselves in time.All our parents should do is to trust them, respect them, tolerate（宽容）them and give them chances to try and fail.They must learn to stand 10 .When criticisms（批评）are really needed,they should be 11 with praises,with a smile and a kiss.That is the way children learn.
Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives.This means teaching them to 12 the rights and opinions of others;it means being respectful to elders,to teachers,and to the law.The best way to teach such values is by 13 .A child who is lied to will lie.A child who sees no laughter and no love in the home will have 14 laughing and loving.
No child asks to be 15 .If you bring a life into the world,you owe the child something.

“Where is the bus? Why is it always late?” I asked myself. I was going to be late 36 the manager wasn’t going to be pleased. “Thank God, here it is!” The bus came round the corner and I got on. Ten minutes later I was walking into the 37 where I work. “Twenty-five past nine. I 38 the manager doesn’t notice.” But I was not 39.
“Smith!” shouted the manager. “Late again. What’s your 40 this time?” “I am afraid the bus was late, Mr. Brown.” “41 up earlier tomorrow! Anyway, go to your place at the counter(柜台). We’ll be opening in a few minutes.”
My first customer was a pretty girl wearing a red dress. 42 her was a young man of about 23. He seemed very 43 , and every few seconds he looked towards the main entrance. The girl drew some money and 44 about opening an account. I gave her necessary 45 and she went out. 46 I noticed a tall man by the door, carrying something 47 with brown paper. Turning to my next customer, I was frightened to see a gun sticking out of his coat. The next moment a loud noise 48 my ears. Everything went black. I was falling… It seemed to be a long time 49 I opened my eyes and I found myself in bed! 50 shaking from the memory of this terrible dream, I got dressed and ran out of the house. 51 the bus wasn’t on time, and I got to the bank at 9:25.
“Smith!” the manager cried out in a voice like thunder. “ 52 of your excuses! Start work at once!” To my 53 the first customer was a girl 54 a red dress and behind her stood a man carrying something wrapped in brown paper. The 55 ! Sometimes life is full of coincidences (巧合)!

Last Tuesday I took two daughters, aged five and seven, to town by car. It began to rain 36 , so I decided I would leave the children in the car 37 I rushed into a shop. I warned the girls not to 38 anything and told them I would be back within a few minutes. Then I locked all the doors and left 39 happily out of the window.
I returned to the car in less than five minutes but the girls had 40 ! I could hardly believe my eyes. The car doors were 41 locked, the windows tightly shut and on the back seat were only two coats. Being 42 , I ran to the corner of the street 43 there was no sign of them. I rushed up to an old lady nearby and asked 44 _she had seen two small girls but she said “No”.
Feeling quite sick with fear, I sat on the driver’s seat, and went to stop trembling (发抖). Suddenly, I heard a merry laugh 45 me. I got out of the car, ran round to open the boot (车尾行李箱) and inside were two very red-faced and 46 children. They had obviously pulled out the back seat, climbed behind it and then been unable to push the seat forward again. 47 tears in my eyes, I leaned forward and pulled their ears.

James shook his money box again. Nothing! He carefully 36 the coins that lay on the bed. $24.52 was all that he had. The bicycle he wanted was $90! 37 on earth was he going to get the 38 of the money? He knew that his friends all had bicycles. It was 39 to hang around with people when you were the only one without wheels. He thought about what he could do. There was no 40 to ask his parents, for he knew they had no money to 41 . There was only one way to get money, and that was to 42 it. He would have to find a job. 43 who would hire him and what could he do? He decided to ask Mr Clay for advice, who usually had _44 in most things. "Well, you can start right here," said Mr Clay. "My windows need cleaning and my car needs washing." That was the 45 of James’s odd-job (零工) business. For three months he worked every day after finishing his homework. He was surprised by the 46 jobs that people found for him to do. He took dogs and babies for walks, cleared out cupboards, and mended books. He lost count of the 47 of cars he washed and windows he cleaned, but the 48 increased and he knew that he would soon have 49 for the bicycle he was dying for. The day 50 came when James counted his money and found $94.32. He 51 no time and went down to the shop to pick up the bicycle he wanted. He rode 52 home, looking forward to showing his new bicycle to his friends. It had been hard 53 for the money, but James knew that he valued his bicycle far more 54 he had bought it with his own money. He had 55 what he thought was impossible, and that was worth even more than the bicycle.

Are you a man or a mouse? When people ask this question they want to know __36_ you think you are a _37_ person or a coward(懦夫).
