| D |
She is quiet, soft-spoken and has a kind face and a strong heart. She is my mom, Lili.
When I was nine, Lili quitted her job and started her own business. She said she didn’t want to stay at home and work as a housewife: “It’s a waste of life.” Lili became so busy that she spent less and less time with me. She didn’t help me with my schoolwork. It was, in her words, “so that you can develop your independence”. We quarreled because she rarely showed up at parents’ meetings.
Like mother, like daughter. I have many things in common with Lili. I want everything to be under control. I want to be perfect and I don’t expect other people to help me. I push myself hard to achieve my goals.
After I started to go to high school, Lili and I were too busy to communicate much with each other.
In biology class I began to be depressed. When the teacher showed us a picture of a butterfly, I was scared and screamed. I had a vision of thousands of butterflies flying toward me.
That night I told Lili about it. The next morning, I saw that she had red eyes with black circles around them.
She took me to see a therapist (治疗师). Three hours later, the therapist told Lili that my life was like a wheel spinning (旋转) faster and faster and that was the reason for what had happened to me. I only realized it when my body couldn’t stand the pressure anymore. At these words, Lili burst into tears. “It’s all my fault, she’s just a kid and I didn’t have time to take care of her….” To be honest, I had never seen Lili cry before.
After that, Lili began to spend more time at home, cooking and dragging me to do sports. I realized she was the one who would always be there when I was in real trouble. No mom is perfect, but she is the one who really cares about her kid.

This particular Saturday when they met for lunch, WHEN 17 IF wasn’t in a great mood（心情）. After they sat at the usual table 18 for them, WHEN asked IF, “You don’t seem your usual 19 self?” IF replied,“Yesterday I saw a course I wanted to take. If only I 20 the time.”
WHEN knew exactly how IF felt and said, “I too saw a 21 and I’ m going to register when I get 22 money.” WHEN then questioned IF, “What about the new job you were going to apply for?” IF answered, “I would have applied, but my 23 broke down. I couldn’t type my resume(简历).”
“Don’t worry. I’ve been thinking about looking for another job also, 24 I’ll wait and when the weather gets 25 I will look then. I hate this awful weather.”
