题目内容

Mom noticed that something was wrong when I started getting so thirsty, I’d have a lot to drink before bed, which was unusual for me. One time, I opened a big container of apple juice and kept refilling my glass. Before I knew it, I’d drunk the entire container! My mom call my doctor. I then had a few blood tests, and the results were certain ------ I had diabetes, which meant that the amount of sugar in my blood was very high. That can be dangerous, so I had to learn how to control my blood-sugar level.
My eating habits had to change in a big way. With diabetes, I can’t eat a lot of sugar or carbohydrates. I have to figure out exactly how much sugar I plan to eat, and then I get an injection of insulin before the meals to help my body process the food. Also, I test my blood-sugar level often. I’m always trying to keep my blood sugar at a healthy level. The level can drop when I exercise, but that doesn’t keep me out of gym class or off the basketball court ------ I just keep some juice boxes around to boost my blood sugar if I need to.
It’s a lot of work ------ and not a lot of fun ------ to keep track of everything, but I’ve gotten used to my new habits. I was a little scared at first because I wasn’t sure how my life would change. Once I knew what I needed to do, though, it wasn’t a big deal. My life is different now from what it was before, but it has become completely regular to me.

This morning, I received a phone call from one of my close friends, Nikko, which immediately changed this bright sunny day into a dark terrible pit of endless sorrow. He told me that Diane’s dad had just 36 , at 12:00 on January 3,2008.
Nikko told me that Diane had 37 everything about her dad on her blog, so I 38 right up from bed and got to her blog instantly. Her blog, always so 39 and nice, is suddenly filled with sorrow and grief.
She must have been writing with 40 streaming down her cheeks, with eyes so 41 from the sleepless night, and with a heart so 42 and regretful and yet, she wrote the post, full of determination and will, 43 strength and love. She showed no 44 of weakness and retreat. She 45 that she didn’t notice how her father was feeling before the sudden stroke (中风)   46 him on his sleep. I feel so sorry for her , as her close friend, that I am not able to give her my support and a shoulder to 47 because I live so far away. But I know she will be 48 . She had determined to become the pillar(支柱) of 49 for her mom and her brother.
Although Diane’s father is no longer 50 , his memories would always be with his family. I gave Diane my deepest condolence（吊唁）for her 51 of her most beloved one.
I have known Diane and her family ever since we were in primary school. 52 can be really cruel sometimes, 53 someone or something you have learned to love and rely on. A(n) 54 death like Diane’s father is the most sorrowful. Destiny didn’t even give his family the 55 to say their last goodbyes.
Diane wanted everyone to cherish their loved ones and do not wait until it’s already too late. Tell them you love them and let them know how you feel before it’s too late.

B
People come in all shapes and sizes，colors and races (种族). Some speak differently while others act differently.
My mother is in a wheelchair. I would like to say something about this special woman I call "Mommy".
My mom does what a mom needs to do every day. She picks me up from school，drives me to meetings，cooks dinner，and helps me with my homework. This is just part of what makes her great，though.
She is my best friend and can immediately notice when I am unhappy. She helps me solve problems that my friends do not understand. Mommy makes me laugh when times are tough. I look forward to coming home because I know there is someone there who cares about what I have done.
Mommy has always tried to be like a "normal" mom. But I think my mother is a wonderful woman and she doesn’t need to change. She teaches me life lessons that no teacher or friend can. She shows me how to accept everyone for what is inside，rather than what is on the outside.
You may have realized that all the qualities (品质) I admire have nothing to do with what she looks like. Everyone could be the way she is，but most are not.
I want everyone to look beyond the surface and see what is inside others. You may fail to notice someone who is very special like my mom because you cannot accept their outside features.

My daddy doesn’t know how to express love. It is my mum that makes everyone happy and calm in

our family; while Daddy only works day and night, never looking us in the face. But Mum makes a

wrongdoing list of us for Daddy scolding us. She was a spy!

Once, I stole a candy. Daddy asked me to put it back and told the shopkeeper I would like to carry

loads for her. Well, Mum told him I was jut a child.

I broke my leg on the playground. It’s still Mum that held me tightly in her warm arms. Daddy

drove us right to emergency room. He was asked to move the car away for that space was for

ambulance. Daddy got angry, “What do you think of it? A touring car?”

On my birthday party, it was, again, my mum that took over the cake for me. And my dad was busy

with blowing balloons and setting the table and doing the housework.

While looking over our album, my friends always ask, “What does your father look like?” God

knows. He photos others all the time. So there are many photos of my mum and me, pretty and lovely

photos.

And I still remembered the day when dad taught me riding. I asked him not to let his hands away,

but he did the opposite. And I certainly fell onto the ground. I got angry and decided to get on the bike

and rode. But he smiled again.

Mum wrote every letter to me while I was in college. He, except checks, did write a letter, but

extremely short, just a few words, saying, “Without your playing on the lawn, my son, my lawn grows

prettier than before.”

Every time I phoned, it seemed that he wanted to talk, but he would say, “I will get your mum.”

On the day of my wedding, Mum cried as if we would never meet again, while dad went out with a

nasal sound.

From very young, I heard him saying, “Where have you been?” “When do you go home?” “Did you

get oil for your car?” “…” Dad really knows nothing about showing love. Unless…

Maybe he showed while I didn’t notice.

One Sunday morning in June 1959 my mother walked into my room. “Surprise!” she said, proudly holding up a yellow dress. “I made it just for you. What do you think?”

I bit my tongue. How could I tell Mom it was the ugliest dress I had ever seen?

“It’s perfect for church,” my mother continued delightedly.“I wish someone had made a dress like this for me.”

Too bad you can’t wear it, I thought. But I knew Mom had spent a lot of time on the dress. No one should refuse.

Unwillingly I put it on.

All through church I prayed（祈祷）,Lord, let me get out of here without anyone seeing me. Especially Dennis Pearce, the boy I had a crush on, one of the coolest boys at Neptune High School. Although we were in some of the same classes, Dennis had never taken any notice of me. Every time I got near him, I became tongue-tied.

At the end of the service I rushed for the door. But I had to wait on the steps while my parents chatted with their friends. Just a little while longer…Then out of the corner of my eye I saw the Pearces coming near. Before I could escape, Dennis was right beside me.

I started talking, hoping if I kept it up he wouldn’t notice my ugly dress. “I’m going to college in September,” I said.

“That’s great,” Dennis replied “I got accepted to police academy（学院）.”

“Wow!” I said. Somehow I kept the conversation going. The next thing I knew Dennis had asked me out on a date!

We courted（恋爱）through college, and eventually got married. Months after our wedding I asked Dennis if he remembered the day he had first asked me out.

“Certainly I do,” he said.“You were always quiet in school. I didn’t think you’d be much fun. But you were so lively when we talked on the church steps, I wanted to get to know you better.” Maybe that yellow dress wasn’t what I would have chosen, but that day it was the perfect dress for me.
