Coming home from school that dark winter day so long ago, I was filled with excitement of having the weekend off. But I was 31 into stillness by what I saw. Mother, seated at the far end of the sofa, was 32 , with the second--hand green typewriter on the table. She told me that she couldn't 33 fast and then she was out of work. My shock and embarrassment at finding Mother in tears was a perfect proof of how 34 I understood the pressure on her. Sitting beside her on the sofa, I began very slowly to understand. "I guess we all have to 35 something," Mother said quietly. I could 36 her pain and the tension of 37 the strong feeling that were interrupted by my 38 . Suddenly, something inside me lit up. I reached out and put my arms around her. She broke then. She put her face 39 my shoulder and sobbed. I held her 40 and didn't try to talk. I knew I was doing what I should, what I could and that was 41 . At that moment, feeling Mother's 42 with feelings, I understood for the first time her being easy to 43 . She was still my mother, 44 she was something 45 : a person like me, capable of fear, 46 and failure. I could feel her pain as she must have felt mine on a thousand occasions when I sought 47 in her arms.
A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station 48 .
"It's a job I can do, though." She said simply. But the evening practice on the green typewriter continued. I had a very 49 feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her 50 away across the paper. I knew there was something more going on in there than a woman learning to type.

As a saying goes, every bean has its black. It is impossible to make no mistakes all one’s life. My grandpa Nybakken, a carpenter(木匠), is no 41 . Several decades ago he made a mistake – a perfect mistake, 42 .
On a cold Saturday, Mother’s father was building some wooden cases for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage (孤儿院) in China. On his way home, he reached into his shirt pocket to find his glasses, but they were gone. He remembered putting them there that morning, so he drove back to the church. His search proved fruitless.
When he 43 replayed his earlier actions, he realized what happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the cases, which he had nailed shut. His brand new glasses, having 44 him £20 that very morning, were heading for China! He had to drive home 45 .
Several months later, the director of the orphanage came to give a report on Sunday night at my grandfather’s church, which Grandpa and his family also attended.
“But most of all,” he said, “I must thank you for the 46 you sent last year. You see, the bandits(土匪) had just 47 through the orphanage, destroying everything, including my glasses. I was desperate.”
“ 48 I had the money, there was simply no way of 49 those glasses. 50 headaches every day. Then your cases arrived. When my staff 51 the covers, they found a pair of glasses lying on top.”
Then, still gripped (吸引注意) with the 52 of it all, he continued: “When I tried on the glasses, it was as though they had been made just for me! I want to thank you for being a part of that!”
The people listened, 53 for the miraculous(奇迹的) glasses. But the director surely must have 54 their church with another, they thought. There were no glasses on their 55 of items to be sent overseas.
But sitting quietly in the back, with tears streaming down his face, an ordinary carpenter realized the Master Carpenter had used him in an extraordinary way.

Friendship is unconditional and uncritical, based only on mutual respect and the ability to enjoy each other's company. These authority figures never saw the way one of us could do something outrageous(令人不可容忍的), and the rest of us would joke about it for days. We could have fun doing absolutely nothing at all—because the ____ 21____ we provided each other with was enough. Rather than discussing operas, Lewinsky, or the weather, we enjoyed just ____22____ each other without any one of us trying to outsmart the others. Still, I realize that these adults had a____23____ to be concerned about the direction my friends were____24____; I also was concerned for them, but I wasn't about to ____25____ them.
Many times I would advise my friends that some activity may be ____26____ or to think things through before doing something, but I would never claim to hold the moral high ground and to condescend(屈尊) to them. When Marvin would begin rolling joints, when Alisa would tell me she skipped school because of a hangover, or when Merriam would tell me that her new boyfriend was in a street gang, I expressed my discomfort with their ____27____. However, I never ____28____ them with the threat of taking my friendship away. Contrary to the commercials on television, you can have ____29____ who use drugs. In fact, probably everyone does without ____30____ it.

Teaching my first child, Danae, to share her toys was the biggest challenge. To 36 this, we started inviting other children to play, which could help Danae discover that it’s 37 to share with others – a lesson I needed to 38 myself as well, as it 39 .
One evening Danac had 40 a friend, Natalie, to play with her. Their favorite was a children’s 41 game called Go Fish. That evening, 42 Natalie left, Danae came to me and said, “Mommy, I’d like to give these to Natalie tomorrow. They’re her favorites.”
She help up three cards from the Go Fish game. I tried to 43 that I didn’t want her to give them away because then our 44 wouldn’t be complete. “But I really want her to have them!” Danae 45 . I thought perhaps she didn’t understand that when she gave something away, it was gone 46 . So I tried again, saying, “ 47 you give the cards to her, you can’t 48 them back tomorrow.”
A look of 49 came over Danae’s face. For a moment I was happy that she seemed to 50 . But then she smiled and said. “Well, that’s okay, I want her to have them anyway.”
What could I say to that? I sat 51 for a moment and then I realized I had been trying for so long to 52 her to share. Did it 53 that our Go Fish set would be 54 ? What mattered was that my daughter was learning the 55 of giving, that she was thinking about others instead of herself, and that she was trying to make her friends happy. Isn’t that what life is all about?

Every summer a great many students travel to other countries looking for work and adventure. Most of the 26 are in seasonal work, mainly connected with wourism and 27
The pay is usually poor, but most people work abroad for the 28 of travel. You can pick grapes on farms in France, entertain kids on American summer camps, and, of course, there are 29 jobs in hotels and restaurants.
But it is not easy now to find work. “ 30 you speak the language of the country well, there will be very few openings,” says Althea Ellis, an adviser in 31 for students.
“If you work with a family in Italy, you’ll have to speak Italian. When you wash dishes in a restaurant in Pairs, the owner will expect you to speak 32 . British students only have a language 33 for jobs in the USA and Australia.”

The pay was 39 and it really was a 24-hour-a-day job. The kids never slept!”
“The troubles is, students expect to have a(n) 40 time of it.” Althea Ellis points out. “After all, they see it as a 41 .In practice, 42 ,you have to work hard. At the same time, all vacation work is casual (临时的) work. You’ll have a job when the hotel, the restaurant, or the campsite is busy. In the other words, you’ll work if it’s convenient for the company that 43 you. But you have 44 employment rights. As soon as the holiday season 45 ,they’ll get rid of you.”
