籾朕双燕(淫凄基宛才盾裂)

I walked into the grocery store, not really wanting to buy anything. I just wanted to stay there quietly ! the pain of losing my  11 was still too great. And this supermarket held so many sweet  12 . He often came with me, and always bought me yellow roses.

Standing  13 the meat, I searched for the perfect small steak  14 my husband used to love it.  15 a woman came up beside me. I watched as she picked up a large pack of T-bone steaks, dropped them in her basket,  16 , and then put them back. She turned to go and once again  17 for the pack of steaks. She saw me  18 her and she smiled. ^My husband loves T-bone steaks, but they are so expensive. ̄

^My husband  19 away eight days ago, ̄ I told her, and  20 to control the sadness in my voice, ^Buy him the T-bone steaks. And  21 every moment you have together. ̄

22 by my words, she placed the steaks in her basket and walked away  23 . But several minutes later she came towards me again,  24 a package in her arms. She was  25 the brightest smile I had ever seen.

As she  26 , I saw what she held. ^These are for you, ̄ she placed three beautiful yellow roses in my hands. I wanted to tell her what the roses  27 for me, but, unable to speak, only watching her walking away.

Looking down at the roses, I wondered  28 she knew it. Suddenly the answer seemed so  29 . I wasn¨t alone. There were  30 many people caring for me and willing to help me. Just be thankful for what you have and who you are.

In the middle of the night, Peter¨s wife suddenly fell ill. She couldn¨t help crying, ^Oh, my stomach! Get the   1    ! ̄

Peter, awaking from a deep sleep, thought his wife was only having a    2    dream.

^Stop that noise,  ̄ he said to her. He turned over and tried to go to   3   again, but his wife still cried out, ^On, help! help! I¨m sure I¨m   4    .  ̄

Peter got out of bed and started   5    , but he could not find him any clothes.

^Where is my shirt?  ̄ he asked. His wife was   6    ill to tell him, and she could only cry, ^Oh, my    7   stomach! ̄

As soon as he had put his clothes    8    , he said, ^Now, my dear, are you quite   9  

that you need the doctor?  Surely you can wait   10   morning, can¨t you?  ̄

^No, I can¨t. Go, go, go,  ̄his wife shouted, ^    11    you will find me dead    12

^I¨m   14   again now, and I shall not want the doctor,  ̄ she said, softly.

Hearing this, he started running as   15    as he could towards the doctor¨s. When he arrived there, he knocked at the door loudly enough to wake   16    around.

The doctor put his sleepy head out of the bedroom window and said, ^Er?  Who¨s there?  ̄

^Oh, Doctor,  ̄Peter called up to him, ^I¨ve very   17    news for you. My wife    18

  ^But I don¨t have enough money to pay 6 your fare and my fare, ̄Mark Twain said.

  The friend didn¨t know 7 to do.He was very sad. ^We can do this. ̄said Mark Twain.^We can 8 the train and when the conductor comes to take the tickets you can hide 9 my seat. ̄

  Later, 10 ,on the train,when the conductor came to take the tickets,Mark Twain gave him two tickets 11 for Mark Twain and one for his friend.Then 12 a loud voice,Mark Twain explained.

  ^My friend here is a 13 strange man.When he travels on a train he doesn¨t like to sit 14 a seat.He prefers 15 on the floor under the seat. ̄

  Of course,everybody in the train then looked at the poor friend under the seat and laughed at him loudly.

If you asked high school girls to name their favorite sports, most would probably say basketball or volleyball. I happen to be one of the few girls who would    1   :surfing(喝惜塰強). But isn¨t that a boy thing? Some people    2    . Most certainly not.

I started surfing about five years ago and    3     in love with the sport on the very first day. Riding that first   4     was the best feeling I had ever experienced.

When I try to   5    surfing with other things, I find it very difficult because, in my

    6   there¨s nothing like it. It involves(韮膚欺)body,   7    , and soul. There¨s sand between my toes and cool, salt water all   8     us. The feeling I get when I¨m surfing across that    9    , becoming one with the    10    , is like I¨m weightless.

The one thing I can   11     from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge(薬媾). You can never be the ^best surfer ̄ because the ocean    12     an uncountable variety of waves that nobody can ever master. The variations of surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and flowing; others are very aggressive(試埔嗤薦議)and   13    . All of these things attract me to surfing and make it    14     from any other sport.

I¨ve   15     to tell every girl I know to do something that people don¨t think girls can do. It's part of being human to advance to new    16    , so shouldn't it be expected that girls should step up and start    17     the limits of things boys and men used to dominate(麼墸)?

There¨re women   18     side by side with the President of our country, so why not side by side with the boys   19    the football team or out in the water surfing? Give girls a chance to    20    , and they will.
