After 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner. 36 woman was my mother, who has been a widow for 19 years, but my work had made 37 impossible to visit her very often. That night I called to 38 her to go out for dinner.“What’s wrong? Are you 39 ?”she asked. “I thought that it would be 40 to spend some time with you. Just the two of us,”I answered. She thought about it 41 moment, and agreed.
That Friday after work, 42 I drove to pick her up, I was a bit nervous. When I arrived at her house, I 43 that, she, too, seemed to be 44 about our date. She had curled her hair and was wearing the dress that she had worn to 45 her last wedding anniversary.
We went to a restaurant that, 46 not elegant, was very nice and cozy. When I read the menu, Mom sat there 47 at me. A nostalgic(怀旧的)smile was 48 her lips. During the dinner, we had a(an) 49 conversation—nothing special but catching up on(了解)recent events of each other’s life.
A few days 50 , my mother died of a heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn’t have a chance to do 51 for her. Sometime later, I received an envelope with a note 52 “You will never know what that night meant to me. I’m looking forward to the 53 dinner. I love you, Son.”
At that moment, I understood the importance of saying in time“I LOVE YOU”. Nothing in life is more important than your 54 . Give them the time they deserve, because these things cannot be 55 till“some other time”.

今年年初我国政府对法定节假日作出如下调整:
1. 五一节由3天调整为1天.
2. 清明节(Tomb-sweeping Day )、端午节(Dragon Boat Festival )、中秋节增设为国家法定节假日(legal holidays).
假如你是王平,是江苏省南京市育才中学高三8班学生。最近,你班举行了一个班会,对此法定节假日调整进行了一次热烈的讨论,讨论结果如下:
75% 学生支持 | 25%学生反对 |
理由: 1.作为一个有着五千多年悠久历史的古国,我们的传统节日是中华民族文化遗产的一部分; 2. 每个传统节日都有着它的特定的含义。如每年农历五月初五端午节之际,人们以包粽子、赛龙舟的方式纪念古代大诗人屈原。清明节,人们以不同方式祭祖或向已故亲人好友和英雄寄托哀思、表达崇敬之情。 | 理由: 1.五一黄金周的取消使很多人尤其是年轻人不能去长途旅游;三天时间度假不够尽兴。 2.黄金周的取消对于旅游业是个不小的损失。 |
参考词汇: 粽子: zongzi; 黄金周: golden week;取消:cancellation n.
(注:本篇字数已大大超过了高考要求,内容仅供同学们做写作时参考。另外,提醒同学们注意完整的书信格式。)
