I didn't cry when I learned I was the parent of a mentally(脑力地) disabled(残疾) child. I just sat still and didn't say anything while my husband and I were told that two-year-old Kristi was --- 36 we thought ---retarded(弱智的).
At seven, Kristi attended school and everything went on well. However, during her second year in school, she faced a very painful experience. The big public 37 of the term was a competition based on the year's music and physical education activities.
On the day of the program, Kristi 38 to be sick. Hopelessly I wanted to keep her home. Why let Kristi fail in a gym filled with parents, students and teachers? What a simple solution(解决办法)it would be just to let my child stay at home. Of course, 39 one program couldn't matter. But my conscience(良知)wouldn't let me off that easily. So I insisted Kristi go to school and take part in the activity.

The performance went surprisingly well, 44 , until it was time for the sack race(跳袋比赛). Now each child had to climb into a sack from a standing position, 45 to a goal line, return and climb out of the sack.
I watched Kristi 46 near the end of her line of players, looking anxious. But as Kristi's 47 to participate came, a change took place in her team. The tallest boy in the line stepped 48 Kristi and placed his hands on her waist. Two other boys stood a little ahead of her. 49 the player in front of Kristi stepped from the sack, those two boys seized the sack and held it 50 while the tall boy lifted Kristi and 51 her neatly into it. A girl in front of Kristi took her hand and 52 her carefully until Kristi gained her balance. Then off she jumped, 53 and proud.
Among the 54 of teachers, schoolmates and parents, I walked off by myself to thank God for the 55 , understanding people in life who make it possible for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings.
Then I finally cried.

Every morning my father’s message to me was: Remember that 37 you walk out of this door, you carry responsibility, the good name of this family, the hopes and dreams of your mom and dad. My mother often urged me to 38 the high standards she set for me.
When I was in high school, I played in a rock band with friends in my class. We were devoted and practiced constantly. We moved past the guys – in – a – garage stage and 39 to be pretty good, doing getting – paid gigs (演奏会) most weekends, which made me 40 . At that time, though part of me was 41 up in that band, another part of me was the oldest son in the Clark family, 42 of my origin and a dedicated student busy applying to colleges. Without even telling my parents, I applied to Harvard. I didn’t think I had much chance of getting in, 43 I wanted to try. So I was riding around being Mr Cool Rock Musician half of the time, and the other half I was focused on family and 44 goals. I was running on parallel 45 .

My bandmasters were 51 . They thought I was crazy to withdraw 52 the peak of real success. But however successful that band got, I knew it wasn’t in line with my 53 , with my feeling of what I was 54 to do, with who I was – it simply wasn’t me.
In that instant and in many others throughout my life, my parent’s advice has helped me recenter and 55 . I could remember who I was – the hopes and dreams I carried.
