Not long before, my daughter's shoes were scratched with a knife.She burst into 36 .I took them to the shoemaker to get them 37 .
The young apprentice (学徒) glanced at the opening and said, " 38 I can do except replace the upper." His master looked at them and said to me, "If you 39 me, I will add more scratches on both of the shoes."
I was 40 and asked why.
He explained, "As if the openings were made 41 for the sake of special style and reuse."
Two days later I found there were indeed more scratches on 42 shoe, but all the openings were patched (打补丁) by soft red leather with edges sewed by thick thread, 43 more unique and interesting than ever.I couldn't help but 44 the master's skill.
Another time, my wife's sister's white blouse had been torn, leaving a large opening on the back.My wife 45 the blouse carefully, and then said, "Let me take it 46 _ and mend it."
Seeing the blouse again, I was shocked: all the torn parts had been sewed up by thin and 47 thread and they 48 a look of ice crystal (冰晶) hanging from a winter's branch. 49 , she had attached a snowman and a cabin made of flowery cotton rags onto the shirt.I 50 with praise, "It's just as beautiful as a piece of 51 !"
"I was inspired by that craftsman.Patches are supposed to be 52 , but a skillful craftsman can make it take on a kind of perfection," replied my wife.
Her words inspired me even more: Perfection is 53 to achieve in everything; Patches are unavoidable, so is human's life.Since you can't 54 the existence of wound, you should not expect people's 55 by exposing the wound, which reveals nothing meaningful.

I was in the queue for the supermarket checkout(付款台) earlier today.All of the checkouts were 46 , and the woman behind me was not happy! Every word that came from her mouth was a(n) 47 ! She wasn’t happy with the number of checkouts 48 ; she wasn’t happy with the amount of shopping some people had in their baskets; she wasn’t happy because this supermarket didn’t have a stand where she 49 scan her own shopping.
I listened to her 50 looking around as I loaded(装) my stuff onto the conveyor belt (传送带).I didn’t want 51 to do with that kind of attitude, and if ever I’d felt like letting someone go 52 of me, it wouldn’t be such a woman!

I couldn’t 56 it.I pushed my shopping back to the end of the conveyor belt, 57 a space.“After you,” I said to the woman and the girl, and 58 them to a big 59 .The woman was delighted, and even 60 to complain ---- until she was walking away.
So, 61 bother(麻烦,费事) having helped?

"Is she Lily? She is much ___39______ than Lily!" It was my turn to be shocked this time. I stared at her for several minutes. "My God! She is Lily. ___40______ can one person change so much?"
I was eight years old then. Looking __36__ I remember the time in a baseball field passing the team that we had just __37__ . We shook their hands and said, "Good game!"
It is __38__ to do that when you win! When you lose, you have a tendency(倾向) to slap (拍) the hand — instead of shaking it — and __39__ the ground instead of the eyes. This is not only true for an eight-year-old; it is true for adults, too.

I was wrong to do this. I'm happy today as a(n) __45__ that I have learned this __46__ : There is something to be said for losing well.
__47__ it is a baseball game or an important examination, you can __48__ a lot about a person by now they deal with defeat. The person who deals with defeat as an __49__ blow is not allowing the event to define (定义) him, while someone who cannot __50__ defeat is allowing the event to __51__ his self-worth. In my opinion, when you __52__ in something— though it may be __53__ — look at your opponents in the eyes, and shake their hands in a __54__ way as you say, "Good game!" __55__ to allow the event to define your life. You might find yourself winning the next game.

CHILDREN AND GAMES
As we all know, games play a very important role in the growth of children. Children should grow along with playing games; 31 , through playing, they can not only acquire knowledge, but also cultivate their abilities to get along with others.
However, most children are 32 ( face ) with a completely different situation. Most parents fear that games will prevent children from increasing new knowledge and 33 the children will fail in the future examinations. So, instead of 34 ( let ) the children 35 find and learn naturally from their surroundings, they force their children to take part in various kinds of classes, learning English, playing 36 piano or practising drawing, etc. What’s more, some parents put 37 the children’s toys which are very useful in developing children’s imagination and practical abilities.
38 is a piece of good advice to those parents: 39 you want to expect your child to be able to accomplish something, you must first of all develop his ability to adapt to the new surroundings. That cram education can lead to nothing 40 a failure in the children’s growth.

For almost 18 years, my mom has given time from her life to devote her care to my growth. She has ashed 36 clothes. She’s planned doctors’ appointments 37 all parts of the body, cut hair, taken icures, bought presents, 38 vacations and basically kept a small boy’s life 39 smoothly.
When I was 12, I got into 40 arguments with my older and wiser parents. The 41 never led a any achievement for me, but I still took part. Many times strong feeling of anger caused tears 42 to in my eyes by the end of the quarrel with them. 43 , I’d return to my room and stay for as long as my parents allowed. Then I’d 44 a knock and hardly manage a weak, “Come in.” My mom, acting as a peacemaker, 45 slowly enter and sit next to me on the bed. I’d again try to 46 what I had said was true, 47 this time less angrily. Then mom calmly, strictly and lovingly showed to me her voice of 48 . After that she’d hug me and I’d stop crying; all would be 49 in my family again.
Hugs will 50 be her trademark(标志): warm hugs for goodnights, good-byes and a thousand other such situations. “You’re never too old to 51 your mother.” I’ve heard those eight words since I came to the world. They ring true. For some reason, those words possess the unbelievable 52 to reduce anxiety, cool an angry head, 53 fears and put wrong things right.
Perhaps my mother, now worthy of the title “Mom” can be an example to mothers everywhere. Being a mother is not so 54 . Any female has the ability to become one. The challenge isn’t in becoming a “mother”, but instead , a “mom”. Mine does that quite 55 .

Dear Professor Liu Kai,
I want to thank you for offering me such useful advice during my research. I have completed my article about advertisements, and I’m quite satisfied 58 it. It has just been published on our school website. I never knew that advertisements were so interesting! The information I found will really help me to educate others. I hope that after they 59 my article, my schoolmates will understand that PSAs 60 intended to educate us about public welfare issues, and 61 commercial ads are meant to promote products or services. Before our talk, I did not think very much about how an advertiser might be trying to trick customers 62 buying a 63 or a service. Now I think I will be much smarter about what things to buy. Even if there are lots of exciting images and persuasive language. I will remember to think about the things I buy. I will also pay a 64 more attention to the nationwide public service ad campaigns because now I know how helpful they can be. I will encourage my friends 65 pay attention to them as well.
