 There is a fine line between being a concerned parent and one that doesn’t know when to let go.

      As my daughter, Nicole, prepares to leave home for college, I’m   36   how hard it is to stay on the right side of this line.   37   I tightly hold the string (绳) connecting us, Nicole,   38   to taste her independence,   39   hard at it, trying to get out of my control. We act as if we were dancing kind of tango (探戈舞). So we reached a(n)   40  . She accepted that as her mother, I had a right to express my idea and   41   suggestions. I accepted that I had to trust her   42   and respect her choices. I bit my lip a few times and Nicole shot me a few glares,   43   our agreement held.

      Thank God! She was finally accepted by a great university. When the time came for registration (注册), we went to an introductory meeting together, but then parents and students were   44  . “You may be paying the tuition (学费).” a university   45   told the parents, “but choosing classes really is the students’  46  . ”

      Obviously, I wasn’t the only parent having a hard time   47  . The night before, I had carefully read the course catalog (目录) and   48    classes I thought looked good. As Nicole went   49   to meet her adviser, we agreed to meet for lunch before registration. “  50   those courses I marked.” I called to her.

      We met three hours 1ater in the   51   hall. Nicole was excited and said to me, “Mum, I have my   52   schedule figured out. It’s great. Look at what I’m taking.” I examined the   53  . Nicole had not taken a single one of the classes I had   54  . Every class she had chosen exactly suited her interests. Though somewhat disappointed, I felt   55   that my daughter had grown into an able girl.

I fell in love with the minister's son the winter I turned fourteen. He was not Chinese. For Christmas I prayed for the boy, Robert. When I found out that my parents had invited the minister’s family over for Christmas Eve dinner, I cried in panic. What would Robert think of our shabby Chinese Christmas? What would he think of our noisy Chinese relatives who lacked proper American manners?

   On Christmas Eve, my mother created abundant Chinese food. And then they arrived—the minister’s family and all my relatives. Robert greeted hello, and I pretended he was not worthy of existence.

   Dinner threw me deeper into disappointment. My relative licked(舔)the ends of their chopsticks and reached across the table. Robert and his family waited patiently for a large plate to be passed to them. My relatives murmured with pleasure when my mother brought out the whole steamed fish. Robert made a face. Then my father reached his chopsticks just below the fish eye and picked out the soft meat. “Amy, your favorite,” he said, offering me the tender fish cheek. I wanted to disappear.

   At the end of the meal, my father leaned back and burped(打嗝) loudly, thanking my mother for her fine cooking. “It's a polite Chinese custom to show you are satisfied,” explained my father to our astonished guests. Robert was looking down at his plate with a reddish face. The minister managed to bring up a quiet burp. I was shocked into silence for the rest of the night.

   After everyone had gone, my mother said to me, “You want to be the same as American girls on the outside.” She handed me an early gift. It was a miniskirt. “But inside you must always be Chinese. You must be proud that you are different. Your only shame is to have shame.”

   It was not until years later that I was able to fully appreciate her lesson and the purpose behind her particular menu. For Christmas Eve that year, she had chosen excellent Chinese food.
