One morning, my son, Chilly, found a carpenterworm(毛毛虫) unexpectedly and put it in a jar. Each day he couldn’t 1 to visit the little guest. Few weeks later we discovered it 2 in a cocoon (茧).
Chilly surely knew a moth (蛾) or butterfly was about to be 3. He was 4 to know what gift nature was about to give him. Gradually we found it half transparent and we could 5 the wings of the unborn. Soon, a moth broke free, and then 6 eggs, completing its life cycle.
The next day, I 7 Chilly it was time to set it free. He took it 8 and opened the jar. It circled the yard twice, came back, and 9 on Chilly’s arm. He picked it up and threw it in the air. The moth repeated its 10 pattern. He tried over and over, but each time it would 11 to his arm so that Chilly had to give up.
The next day he attempted to set it free again, and after a few repetitions the moth finally12 into the grass.
Like a 13, I believe the moth was afraid to 14 what it was comfortable with. It wanted to stay with something 15, scared to move on and experience something unknown.
I was once that little moth. My cocoon was my mother’s 16, in which I was comfortable, and hated to fly too far away from it. I was 17 when my first job required me to move to a new city. Humans are creatures of 18. We resist change. However, if I hadn’t moved, I would not have experienced many 19 and wonderful things or met many of my friends. So each move gave me the 20 to learn and experience, but best of all, I met friends.

I was loading (装载) my truck to go to the market when I hurt my left eye. The pain was like a hot sword(剑) being shoved through my head. I fell down on my hands and knees, and I knew it was bad.
I was taken to the Erlanger Hospital in Chattanooga, and the doctors operated on me several times but couldn’t save my left eye. When they told me the news, I wanted to die.
Even after I got my fake(假的) eye, I couldn’t shake the sadness. To make matters worse, I lost my job as a transportation officer because of my lost eye. But one morning, I woke up and the TV was on, and there was a 16-year-old girl who had been badly burned on her face and legs. Her situation was much worse than mine. She wore a big smile and seemed to look right at me and said, “You can’t ever give up.” At that moment, I thought, “This is just an eye. Get over it.” And I did.
It’s been almost 12 years since my accident, and there’s nothing I can’t do now that I used to do. And although I didn’t get my old job back, I got my license again.
I read a story once. In that story, a man was feeling bad because he had no shoes until he met a man who had no feet. No matter how terrible your problem is, remember there’s always someone somewhere who’s worse off. So cheer up and smile at life!
