Love Is Just a Thread

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the  ? 36 ? tuition for my brother and me. They don't ? 37 ? in the romantic ways that I read in books or  I see on TV. My father has a bad temper; it's easy for him to lose his temper.?

One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I ? 38 ? sat down beside her and looked at her.

“Is there any ? 39 ? between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.

My mother stopped her work and raised her head with ? 40 ? in her eyes. She didn't answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.

? 41 ? at last I heard my mother say the following words:?

“Susan,” she said ? 42 ?.“Look at this thread. Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable(耐用的).If life is a

? 43 ?,then love should be a thread. It can ? 44 ? be seen anywhere or ?anytime, but it's really there. Love is ? 45 ?.”?

I listened carefully but I couldn't understand her until the next ? 46 ?.At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. After they were ? 47 ?,every day in the morning and dusk(黄昏),my mother helped my father walk ? 48 ? on the country road. My father had never been so ? 49 ?.Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees. The sun gently shone through the leaves. All of these ? 50 ? the most beautiful picture in the world. The doctor had said my father would ? 51 ? in two months. But after two months he still couldn't walk alone. We were all worried.?

“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.?

“Susan,”he said gently.“To tell you the truth, I just like ? 52 ? with your mom. I like this kind of life.” ? 53 ? from his eyes, I knew he loved my mother deeply.

Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this ? 54 ?,I understand that love is just a ? 55 ? in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

Cooler temperatures, attractive colors, smaller crowds autumn is the perfect time for travel and tourism. Here, three places are listed as the best fall trip destinations. Don’t worry if you can’t go to these places. By reading this page, we hope to take you on grand tour and let you experience fun and culture around the world.

Cannstatter Volkfest, Stuttgart, Germany

Stuttgart’s Cannstatter Volkfest is listed as the world’s second largest beer-drinking event–following Munich’s Oktoberfest. But it is considered Germany’s more authentic celebration of local heritage and, of course, beer.

Started as an agricultural fair in 1818–a symbolic 24-meter-high “fruit column” pays homage to the past–the three-week festival (from September 23 to October 9 this year) features live music, a re-created Alpine village, and carnival(狂欢节) rides.

In addition, Stuttgart is recognized as a global car capital. Both the Mercedes-Benz and Porsche museums are worth a visit.

 

 

Churchill, Manitoba, Canada

Here in the northern Canadian town at Hudson Bay, visitors can see the area’s most famous fall residents–polar bears.

More than a thousand of the world’s largest land carnivores migrate through the “polar bear capital of the world” during October and November, when the first ice forms on the edge of Hudson Bay. 

The frozen conditions make it easier for hungry bears to hunt for seals (by walking instead of swimming).

Under the snowy, winter weather, visitors can hardly have too many clothes to put on. Insulated boots, jackets, and gloves; layered clothing; thermal underwear; and woolen socks and hats are required.

 

Dublin, Ireland

The Ireland’s capital and largest city is a center for arts, entertainment, culture and commerce.

With few tourists and lower temperatures, fall is the ideal season for walking the historic Georgian streets and cruising the River Liffey.

Visitors can explore the city’s 20 square kilometers of public gardens, nature reserves, and parks, including St. Stephen’s Green, which borders Grafton Street, one of the world’s most expensive retail locations.

  Along the way, enjoy traditional, paper-wrapped fish and chips at Leo Burdock.

  Healthier eats will be on the menu on October 31, when more than 12,000 runners are expected for the National Lottery Dublin Marathon, named “the Friendly Marathon” for the affable crowds cheering there.
