My mum only had one eye. She cooked for students and teachers to   41   the family when I was young.

One day my mum came to 　42  hello to me in primary school. I was so embarrassed（尴尬的） that I threw her a hateful  43 and ran out.

The next day at school, one of my classmates said, “Your mum only has one eye!” and  44  at me.

I hated my mum and decided to leave her, so I studied very hard. Later I got a chance to go abroad to study and I left my mother.　45　graduation I worked, bought a house and got   46  there. Then I had kids of my own. I was happy with my wife and my kids. But one day someone knocked at my door. It was my 47  !When she stood by the door, my children laughed at her, and I  48  at her, “How dare you come to my house and scare my children! GET OUT OF HERE NOW!” And to this, my mum 　49  answered, “Oh, I’m so sorry. I may have got the wrong  50  ,”and she disappeared.

One day, a letter regarding a school reunion（聚会） came to my house. So I told a 　51  to my wife that I was going on a business trip. After the reunion, I went to the old house.

My neighbours said that she   52   . I did not have a single tear. They handed me a letter that she had wanted me to have.

My dearest son,

I am thinking  53 you all the time. I’m sorry that I came to your house and scared your 　54　 .

I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion. But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you. I’m sorry that I was still an embarrassment to you when you were growing up.

You see…when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn’t stand watching you grow up with one eye. So I gave you   55  .

  …  With all my love to you!

Your mother

The lady with the white fence（篱笆）taught me to leave the gale to life open.. .

My husband died in an accident and I became very angry. I hated being alone. One day, as I was　 43　 down a busy street, I suddenly noticed a new fence around a house. I pulled off to really watch it. It was such a good 　44　 that I was deeply touched. I could not send 　45 away. The fence still smelled of fresh paint.

“Hello!" I came up and said to a lady in the back garden, “I came to see the fence. It's so beautiful!"

“Oh! The fence is not there for me," the lady explained to me in a calm voice, “I live alone. _ 46_ so many people pass by every day, and I think they may be pleased to see something really attractive. 　　47　 stop like you and come up to have a chat. "

"But weren't you sad when they expanded (拓宽) the road and everything changed so much?"

"Change is part of life and takes part in 　 48　 us who we are. When something we do not

like happens to us, we have two choices—to become a 　 49　 person or to become a better person."

Her reply changed my life. I carefully left the gate open and drove on 　50 a new feeling inside me. I could not tell 　51 it was, but I could feel the thick stone wall around my angry heart breaking off. And 　52 a pretty white fence was built. I decided that I would keep the gate open for everything and everyone that came my way.
