College was the best of times and the worst of times for me. I met the best friends of my life, had 21 experiences, but I also folded under more 22 than I ever had to deal with before. 23 bad grades, I ended up being asked to take a semester off at the end of the first semester of my senior year.
So I went back home to 24 with my father and stepmother. To their credit, they understood me and were very cool about my coming back. I felt their 25 from the moment I walked in the door. They 26 to let me feel like a failure.
One morning not long after I had come home, my father woke me up saying that my stepmother 27 on the kitchen floor. I went downstairs trying to perform CPR on her 28 it was too late. She was already dead of a massive heart attack.
I’ll never 29 the look on my father’s face when he was given the official news of her passing. I knew at that moment that I had to be 30 because he needed someone to lean on. It was as if our roles had 31 and I was being the protective parent while he took the time to 32 .
I guess the lesson I took from it is that even in our 33 moments we can still be of help to someone who is 34 something much harder. It’s so easy to close ourselves off to the things going on around us, and 35 feel that we are the only ones 36 . Helping someone else could actually help us 37 ourselves.

“They not only make it 38 to sleep at night, but they are 39 damage to our houses and shops of historical interest,” said John Norris, one of the protesters.
“ 40 we must have these noisy trucks on the roads,” said Jean Lacey, a biology student,“why don’t they build a new road that goes 41 the town?Burlington isn’t much more than a 42 village.Its streets were never meant for heavy traffic.”
Harry Fields also studying 43 said they wanted to make as much 44 as possible to force the 45 to realise what everybody was having to 46 .“Most of them don’t 47 here anyway,” he said,“they come in for meetings and that,and the Town Hall is soundproof(隔音), 48 they Probably don’t 49 the noise all that much.It’s high time they realised the 50 .”
The fourth student,Liza Vernum,said she thought the public were mostly on their side,and even if they weren’t they soon would be.
51 asked if they were afraid that the police might come to 52 them.
“Not really,” she said,“actually we are 53 bell-ringers.I mean we are assistant bell-ringers for the church.There is no 54 against practising.”
