During my second year of nursing school, our teacher gave us a quiz (小测验). I was a hardworking student and I did well    26   all the subjects. I finished the questions successfully until I read the last one, “What is the first name of the    27  who cleans the school?”
I saw the cleaning woman every day. She is short and about 60 years old. She has dark hair. But    28   would I know her name? I have    29  talked with her before. In fact, I’ve never even thought about talking to her! I stared at (盯着) my paper and started to feel rather guilty (惭愧的). Finally, I handed in my paper   30   writing the answer to the last question.
Before the class ended, one student    31   the teacher if the last question would count (计入) into our grade. “In your life,” the teacher said, “you will meet many people. All are    32 . They deserve (值得) your attention (注意) and care, even if all you do is just smiling and saying hello.”
I’ll never    33   that lesson. Everyone deserves our attention and we should try to get to know all the people who work and live around us. That was the most important    34 of my life. Later that day, I    35  that the cleaning woman’s name was Dorothy.

One morning it was shining brightly when I woke up. I looked at the alarm clock. It said 3:45! It had stopped! What time was it? I climbed out of bed and went downstairs to the kitchen. The kitchen clock said 8:30—I was late! My parents were away. My aunt had gone to work without checking if I was up. The school bus went at 8:00. I had missed it. I rang my friend Tony on his mobile phone.

“Tell the teacher I’ll be in as soon as I can!” I said.

“Come on your rollerblades,” Tony said. “It will be faster than the bus.”

I washed and dressed in a hurry. I grabbed an apple to eat on the way. That was my breakfast! Then I put on my rollerblades and set off for school. It took half an hour to get to the school. I took all the shortcuts I knew. I went across the park — even through some backyards! When I got to school, I was very hot and my legs ached. I had missed math, our first lesson of the morning. But I made it just in time for history, our second lesson. I was very happy because history is my favorite subject.

My tears run down from my cheeks (面颊) when I talk to my parents on the phone. What are they doing when I call them? Dad works from seven o’clock in the morning to nine o’clock in the evening. My mum does all the housework, she also has to work in the field. But I can’t do anything for them.
Every day she gets up at around 4 o’clock in the morning. When I sometimes call her at 7:30 in the evening, she tells me that she is still in the field and doesn’t have supper. I tell her I’ll study hard in the school. I also ask her to take care of herself and dad because I can’t live without them.
Mum says that the happiest time for dad and her is when my sister and I come back home.
We play cards in the room, watch TV, or do anything we like, with dad and mum making delicious food in the kitchen. It is also the happiest time for me.
Love, sometimes, doesn’t need many words. Love your parents like they love you. Give them a call, tell them you miss them.
