籾朕双燕(淫凄基宛才盾裂)
Yesterday, after telling my brother, Rhys, and me to stop playing like wild animals, Mom went to take a bath. We were having a pillow fight when 36 one hit a vase. Mom 37 the loud crash. Wasting no time, she came 38 into the room. I was sure that she was going to shout at us, but instead she just knelt by the 39 and began to cry.
This made Rhys and me feel pretty 40 . We went over and put our arms around her, and she explained to us why she was so upset. In the pieces 41 a broken glass rose, one petal (雑郁)gone, which was given by Dad on their first wedding anniversary. Dad had said that if he ever forgot to bring flowers home 42 an anniversary in the future, Mom was to look at that one. It was like their love!it would last a 43 .
We began crying, and 44 to glue it. But Mom said that wouldn¨t really fix it. 45 it had been broken, the 46 of the ^limited edition ̄ had reduced. As Mom 47 began to pick up the mess, we tried everything we could think of to 48 her up, but even our best funny faces didn¨t 49 . Tears kept coming down her cheeks. Everything was picked up. Seeing Mom going back to the bath, I 50 her and put both hands on her shoulders, saying, ^All things can be 51 ��Mom. The only thing that cannot be broken is our 52 . It¨s the only thing that can never be broken.  ̄
Mom hugged me very tightly and 53 smiled. After dinner that night, Mom glued the petal back onto the rose. Then she softly said, ^My rose is truly unique. Its tiny damage reminds me of 54 more important��the realization that love 55 forever.  ̄

We have so many first days in our lives. First days are milestones(戦殻窺) in our lives. They 36 the beginning of a new experience or journey and they are also filled with 37 feelings. They can be a little frightening as we step into the unknown, but they can also inspire us as they give us fresh 38 for the future.
I want to share a 39 that perfectly shows this point. Trisha was told that 40 is the key to knowledge. She watched her older brother 41 he read his schoolbooks and could hardly 42 the day when she would learn to read.
But after Trisha 43 started school, she found that she was not able to understand words like the other boys and girls. However hard she 44 , she saw only confusion. Trisha 45 , the teacher and the other children laughing at her, and she began to believe that she was not 46 .
By the time Trisha entered the fifth grade, she had lost the 47 in herself. That was the year when she met Mr. Falker. He was 48 . He praised Trisha¨s talents, and he wouldn¨t tolerate the other children laughing at her. After some time, Mr. Falker 49 that Trisha didn¨t know how to read, but he knew she could 50 some help.
He found an expert, and together they 51 with Trisha after school. They 52 her to understand words 53 one day Mr. Falker handed her a book and she could read it all by herself. She didn¨t even notice the tears in his eyes.
This is a true story. The little girl is Patricia Polacco, a famous 54 , and Thank you Mr. Falker is the twenty-sixth book that she has written. Mr. Falker gave her a fresh new 55 and made a difference in her life.

When we are unfamiliar with something, we may feel nervous and fearful. The help of others is a good 31 to help us pull through.
I write for a big newspaper, and I wanted to 32 a story about parachute jumping��柳鼻��. To make it a realistic as well as exciting 33 , I decided that I had to make a jump myself 34 . Unluckily, I¨m not good at any 35 , let alone�┯�音喘傍��parachute jumping.
My friend Mr. Smith was willing to give me a 36 . He took me to a ground school. The first day¨s 37 included several hours of instruction but not my first drop from a(n) 38 . For this, I had to wait until the following 39 .
The next morning, I was taken to the airfield. 40 , a heavy parachute was put on my back. Then I was 41 to make my way to a small plane which had just stopped slowly on the runway. Once on board, the plane was soon 42 . I began to feel nervous. As we reached one thousand meters, Harry, my teacher, hooked�┨械�a 43 from my parachute to a steel ring inside the plane. The line was to pull my parachute 44 after I jumped.
^Get 45 , Henry, ̄ Harry said. I moved carefully to the door. I wanted to 46 , ^NO, no, no! ̄ But no word came.
^Jump! ̄ Harry called 47 . ^Jump! ̄
Away from the plane, and down, down I fell, arms stretched. It worked. All at once I was very happy. Then I felt a quick 48 . My big parachute had opened! It was the best 49 I ever had. I looked down. There were rivers, trees, fields and houses. I heard the soft sound of the air. This was 50 .

Last Christmas was a very difficult time for me. My family were all back home in Florida, leaving me 36 in a rather cold California. I was working at the Southwest Airlines ticket counter. It was about 9:00 P.M. on Christmas Eve, and there were a few of us 37 and very few customers waiting to be 38 . When the next person came to the counter, I 39 to see a very old man, whose leg was wrapped in a bandage(荏揮) ,standing with a stick. He walked very 40 over and in a low 41 told me that he had to go to New Orleans. I tried to explain to him there were no more 42 that night and that he would have to wait till the 43 .
Later, I 44 this old man was Mr. MacDonald and that his relative 45 him off at the sidewalk on Christmas Eve and told him to go to New Orleans, where he had his family. He was given some 46 and told just to go inside and buy a ticket. When 47 if he could come back tomorrow, he said that he had no place to 48 in here and he would wait at the airport until tomorrow. I felt a little ashamed. The poor old man now 49 me of what being alone really meant.
I never really had a 50 like this, and I was feeling really miserable inside. I went back and told my supervisor(麼砿) about it, who promised to 51 everything. To my great 52 , the next morning we 53 to get him a ticket and took him to wait for the plane. As he left he said, ^Thank you ̄; then he 54 his head and started to cry. Seeing this, my homesickness began to disappear.
From the experience I learned a 55 : He who helps others gets helped himself.
