Dear Mom and Dad,
I will go to Alice’s home with her after school, and I will have supper and sleep there. Don’t    21   about me. You know that Alice is one of my    22  friends. If you want to talk with me, you can    23   68610598 after 6:00 pm.
Please forgive me for not telling you first. I don’t think you will    24 me to do so if I tell you first.   25  I think teenagers should be allowed to stay at their friends’ houses sometimes. I am sixteen years old and I’m not a little kid    26 . I hope I can make decisions for    27  .
At home, there are too many   28  for me to obey: Don’t stay out so    29  ; don’t have meals before    30   hands; don’t watch TV without finishing homework, etc. Parents should be    31   teenagers, but we need freedom, too.
I don’t like doing my homework    32   at home. I’d love to study    33   Alice. We can learn a lot from each other.    34   please allow me to stay at Alice’s house once a week. If you    35  , Alice can stay at our house with me, too.
Yours,
Lillian

The flower was dry and   24  . I gave him a small smile and then turned my eyes aways so that he could take his dry flower and go off to play.

  25  , he sat next to my side and placed the flower to his   26   and said in surprise, “It smells sweet and it’s beautiful, too. That’s   27   I picked it.

So I accepted the flower, and replied, “This is just what I   29  .” Just then, for the first time I noticed that the boy could not   30   —he was blind.

Tears (眼泪) came down my face as I   31   him for picking the best one. “You’re welcome.” he smiled, and then ran off to   32  . I sat there and wondered how he was able to learn about my pain (痛苦).

Through the eyes of a blind child,   33   I could see the problem was not with the world; the problem was me. And for all those years I myself had been   34  . I decided to see the beauty in life, and   35   every second of my life. And then I held that dry flower up to my nose and breathed in the smell of a beautiful rose.
