By the third year of teaching I’d begun to expect Christmas break more for the school holiday and less for the excitement of the children. I was teaching fourth grade and my students had made me 36 . I just had to get through one of the hardest days of the school year.
The morning bell rang. I walked 37 through the cold into the overly heated school building. Twenty-two smiling faces 38 me at the school bus stop. I forced myself to 39 their smiles. Back into the classroom, they 40 , comparing plans for the 41 . I had to remove one student from each arm 42 I could take a seat at my desk for my morning duties. Before I could find my roll book（点名册） my desk was covered with 43 and gifts followed by a 44 of “Merry Christmas” wishes.
“Oh, thank you,” I must have 45 a million times. Each gift was truly special to me, except my 46 mood（情绪）. It was kind of them to 47 me. After a while, I heard a small nervous 48 say my name. I looked up to see Brandon standing 49 by my desk, holding a small, round gift. “This is for you.”
“Thank you, Sweetheart.” I laid it on my desk with the others.
“Um, could you 50 it now?”
I gently tore at the paper and tape. “ 51 ,” he said, “it’s breakable.” Slowly I opened a small, green Christmas tree ornament（装饰物）, complete with a hook already 52 . It dawned on me what he had done. Then a nearby student said that he just pulled that off his own tree. I tried to keep my 53 back.
Later that day, I sat 54 the ornament in my hands. Was I really so important to this child that he had searched for something to give me? Now every year as I 55 pull a green Christmas ball from my ornament box, I remember the deep influence my students have on me.

When the curtain dropped, so did my __12__ for the evening. I __13__ bitterly, tasting the salt from the tears that streamed down my face. I ran backstage, but no one could __14__ me down.

Just not a long time ago did I finish my blog about the unforgettable snowy storm that I had on Monday night in November. I got another big 36 in Seattle again. But this time, it's not snow, but the wind and rain. I have 37 seen such a strong wind before even though I had 38 the typhoon every summer when I was still in my home country.
That 39 storm was so powerful that it 40 the whole big Seattle area out of 41 . 700,000 people had no electricity, and 42 13 people have died. Seattle is famous for its evergreen trees, but those trees made a big 43 this time. They broke down the power line above the ground, 44 the road and streets, and 45 the houses.
As the last storm was still 46 in my mind, I had another personal 47 about this new storm. 48 , this time, it was not good either. I was 49 to have my TOEFL test on the second day of the stormy night. Since the whole city had no electricity, my test had to be 50 off, and I had to prepare for another one later. It was my last test for the 51 , and I already made a plan for the time after the test, but now 52 is changed.
I guess sometimes, the way that the thing 53 is not always what you 54 . And what I can do now is to fit for it. 55 , we got a free hotel room from my husband's cousin and met my lovely nephew from San Francisco.
