On my way home I knocked into a stranger as he passed by. “Oh. I’m terribly sorry,” I said. “That’s all right. Please excuse me too; I wasn’t even 26____ you. I wish I didn’t hurt you.”
We were very 27 . We said good-bye and went on our way.
But at home we often 28 our loved ones in a different way.
Later that day, while I was cooking the evening meal, my daughter stood beside me very quietly. When I turned, I nearly 29 her down. “Move out of the way.” I shouted. She walked away, tears (眼泪) in her eyes.
While I lay awake in bed, I realized how 30 I’d spoken. So I decided to get up to say sorry to my daughter. On the way to her bedroom, to my surprise, I found some 31 by the door of the kitchen.

Then I asked, “Did you pick these flowers for me?”
She smiled, “I found them out by the tree. I picked them 33 they’re pretty like you. I knew you’d like them. I stood quietly in order to give you a surprise.”“Oh dear, I’m really sorry for the way I acted today; I shouldn’t have shouted at you.”
“ That’s okay. Mom. I 34 you anyway.”
I suddenly realized what a clever way it is to explain the word 35 like this: (F) ather (A) nd (M) other, (I) (L) ove (Y) ou!

It is very important to stay healthy. I have a neighbor. She is an old lady. She can do all the housework, 41 newspapers, watch TV and search on the Internet to learn something new. I often see 42 do taijiquan in the morning and dance in the evening. She looks young and beautiful 43 she is over seventy. Last week a reporter from a magazine interviewed her and asked 44 she kept so young and healthy. She replied with a smile:
I have a secret of staying young and healthy. It is quite 45 . Keep your mind active, take an interest in the world 46 you, and learn at least one new thing every day. Try to do different kinds of housework and do sports as 47 you can. Don’t think you are too old to go back to 48 . I know a man who entered a medical college when he was 70 years old. He studied there for 6 years and now he is a doctor. Another man went to a tennis school at the age of 71 and now he is good at 49 tennis. Some people may say staying young is easy only for those who live in the future. In fact, no matter how old you are, you can make it.
Please tell the story to your family. It would be a good start to 50 the lady’s example. I hope all people will stay young and healthy.
