My life is always full of sadness and little joy. However, no matter(无论) what happens, I can always face it bravely.

   Last year,  I couldn’t believe the        that I could enter the only key high school in my hometown. Then I rushed to my home and told my parents. But my father didn’t seem as       as I was. He just kept smoking without saying a word and my mother put her head down and couldn’t help      .

   I knew very well what my family was     ___ . My mum had been ill in bed for 2 years. We lived a hard life and I couldn’t continue my schooling. I felt so upset(心烦意乱) but I could say        to my parents. I decided to help my father with his work       my family.

  To my surprise, things completely changed         the beginning of the new term. My head teacher came to my family        some money, which was raised by my schoolmates. He encouraged me, “Always have a dream.” With tears in my eyes, I stepped into the key high school.

  I have been studying hard since I entered the high school. No matter when I meet difficulties, I always         my teacher and schoolmates. I have a college dream and I must work hard for it, no matter how       life is. Just as a great man says, “When one door shuts, another opens in life.”

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  15  you. I wish I didn’t hurt you,” said the man.
We were very    16  . We said good-bye and went on our way.
But at home we often    17   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 around, I nearly    18  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   19   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   20  by the door of the kitchen. At that time my tears began to fall. I quietly went and got down on my knees by her   21 . She woke up and put her arms around my neck when I kissed（接吻）her. Then I asked, “Did you pick these flowers for me?”
She smiled and said, “I found them out by the tree. I picked them   22    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,” I said.
“That’s OK, Mom. I   23   you anyway,” she said.
I suddenly realized what a clever way it is to explain the word   24   like this: Father And Mother, I Love You!
