The first event of my life to be printed into my memory occurred when I was three. My mother stands, working in the 41 and then glances at me with a 42 smile. Two feet down the table, I knock on a chair with a bowl and a spoon, 43 my own invisible (无形的) powder. We wear 44 dresses, mine the leftover 45 from hers, sky blue — mommy’s favorite color. I am her shadow.
However, by 14 I could not 46 my mother. All that I heard every day was NO. I wanted to dye my hair and she said no. I wanted to 47 late with my friends and she said no. I didn’t understand why she said no. She was trying to 48 me from aches and pains and mistakes 49 in her teens. Several years later, I finally understood her, but it was too late. She became ill. I cried and 50 , “Don’t take her, God, please! She is my mother, my mommy, ma, the woman who gave me life. All my years, 51 the hard times and the good, she has been there, 52 to me forever by an invisible umbilical cord (脐带) that lasts longer after birth.”But this cord, this love could do nothing to stop the cancer from 53 .
A few years later 54 I myself lay in the hospital bed, my newly born daughter was 55 in my arms. I cried and smiled and prayed. Please help me to 56 her into a wonderful girl. And looking down 57 her eyes, I could see the message they held, “Your 58 would be proud.”
I stand in the kitchen now, and these thoughts flashed through my mind. I glance at my young daughter. A 59 feeling rushes through my soul as I take in the familiar 60 .

Every year mobile phones develop. Imagining what they will look like and be able to do in 2020 is really a challenge. To help, experts have outlined three major mobile trends that they believe will have become reality by then.
Our phones will be so smart in 10 years’ time that they’ll know everything about our situation and warn us when something needs our attention. This is the top prediction of both Nokia and Google. They predict that our cars and home appliances will be able to communicate with our mobile. For example, fridges will tell your mobile to tell you to pick up milk on the way back from work. While driving, your mobile will suggest that you take a different route because there’s a road accident up ahead.
The second trend is in gesture-based controls. People who know the iPhone’s touch-sensitive screen are already familiar with the technology. It translates hand movements into actions on-screen. But gestural communications will make the phone more convenient to use and may completely replace touchpads. According to industry insiders, the most immediate step forward in gestural technology will be in voice recognition. It’s believed voice recognition technology will speed up communications. It is quicker to speak than type. Eventually, phone screens will disappear.
The third major development will change our understanding of a mobile phone. From a single phone, the mobile will be developed into multi-part devices. It is opposite to the current trend in which mobile phones are combining the functions of cameras, music players and game consoles. The prediction is based on the idea that the world will become more wireless and all these—cameras, music players and game consoles—will be wirelessly connected. Mobile phones won’t need to contain these devices because users will be able to control them wirelessly through their phones.
