Sometimes I really doubt 36 there is love between my parents.Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me.They don’t act in the romantic ways 37 I read in books or I see on TV.In their opinion, “I love you” is 38 luxurious for them to say.Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question.Finally my father has a bad temper.When he’s very tired from the hard work, it is easy for him to lose his temper.
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt.I silently sat down beside her and looked at her.
“Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low 39
My mother stopped her work and 40 her head with surprise in her eyes.She didn’t answer immediately.Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.
I was very worried because I thought I had 41 her.I was in a great embarrassment and I didn’t know what I should do. 42 at last I heard my mother say the following words:
“Susan,” she said 43 , “Look at this thread.Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt.The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable.If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread.It can hardly be seen 44 or anytime, but it’s really there. 45 is inside.”
I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her 46 the next spring.At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously.My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.When they returned from the hospital, they both looked very pale.It seemed both of them had had a 47 illness.
After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road.My father had 48 been so gentle.It seemed that they were the most harmonious couple.Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees.The sun gently glistened 49 the leaves.All of these 50 the most beautiful picture in the world.
The doctor had said my father would recover 51 two months.But after two months he still couldn’t walk 52 .All of us were worried about him.
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
“Susan, don’t worry about me.” he said gently.“To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.I like this kind of life.” 53 his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
Once I thought love 54 flowers, gifts and sweet kisses.But from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life.Love is inside, 55 life strong and warm..

The simplest way to say it is this: I believe in my mother. My 【小题1】 began when I was just a kid. I 【小题2】 becoming a doctor. My mother was a worker. Through her work, she observed that 【小题3】 people spent a lot more time reading than they 【小题4】 watching television. She announced that my brother and I
【小题5】watch two to three TV programs during the week. With our free time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and then 【小题6】 her written book reports. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a 【小题7】 . My mother was illiterate (文盲的).
When I entered high school I was an A-student, but not for long. I 【小题8】 the fashionable clothes. I wanted to 【小题9】 the guys. I went from being an A-student to a B-student to a C-student. One night my mother came home after 【小题10】 at one of her several jobs and I complained about not having enough Italian knit shirts. She said, “Okay, I’ll give you all the money I make this week scrubbing (擦洗) floors and cleaning bathrooms, and you can buy 【小题11】 food and pay the bills. With the money that is 【小题12】 , you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want.” I was very 【小题13】 with that plan, but once I had finished paying for all of the important things, there was 【小题14】 left. I realized that my mother was always dealing with money well to be able to 【小题15】 a roof over our heads and to put food on the table. I also realized that immediate satisfaction wasn’t going to get me anywhere. _【小题16】__ required intellectual (智力的) preparation. I went back to my 【小题17】 and became an A-student again. Finally, I 【小题18】 my dream and I became a doctor. My story is really my mother’s story — a woman with 【小题19】 formal education who used her position as a parent to change the lives of many people around the globe. Now I believe that there is no job more 【小题20】 than parenting.
