Coming home from school that dark winter day so long ago, I was filled with excitement of having the weekend off.But I was 1 into stillness by what I saw.Mother, seated at the far end of the sofa, was 2 , with the second-hand green typewriter on the table.She told me that she couldn’t type fast and then she was out of work.My shock and embarrassment(尴尬)at finding Mother in tears was a perfect proof(证明)of how 3 I understood the pressure on her.Sitting beside her on the sofa, I began very slowly to understand.“I guess we all have to 4 something,”Mother said quietly.I could 5 her pain and the tension(紧张)of holding back the strong feeling that were interrupted by my 6 .Suddenly, something inside me lit up.I reached out and put my arms around her.She broke then.She put her face 7 my shoulder and sobbed.I held her tightly and didn’t try to talk.I knew I was doing what I should, what I could 8 was enough.At that moment, feeling Mother’s 9 with feelings, I understood for the first time her being easy to 10 .She was still my mother, 11 she was something more:a person like me, capable of fear and 12 and failure.I could feel her pain as she must have felt mine on a thousand occasions when I sought 13 in her arms.

“It’s a job I can do, though.”She said simply.But the evening practice on the green typewriter continued.I had a very 15 feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her tapping away across the paper.I knew there was something more going on there than a woman learning to type.

A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness.His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move.What was the 1 was he found himself unable to ask for help-his mobile phone went out of 2 as a result of exhausted(用尽的)battery.Nothing could be done but to 3 in cold wilderness.It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the 4 of the rescue.
It is almost 5 that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long.Even more surprising was his 6 :“First of all I checked up my 7 conditions and found myself not in mortal(致命的)danger.As there was no 8 to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from 9 .In this way I dozed(打盹)off.”
His story put an end to my regret for the 10 of an exploration adventure that happened last year.A group of young men 11 to explore a mountain cave and got lost. 12 to find a way out in the dark cave, they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of 13 .Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion(筋疲力尽).According to the 14 people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the 15 of the cave.If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to 16 themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering(闪烁)not far away.
Don’t you think that you can compare it with 17 itself?When you meet with obstacles(障碍)in life and work, you are lost in darkness. 18 you it’s unclear yet and you needn’t put up struggle 19 .It seems to be a negative(消极的)attitude, 20 a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as a great courage in the first place.

It’s difficult for doctors to help a person with a hurt brain. 1 enough blood, the brain can live only three to 5 minutes.Usually doctors can’t fix the hurt 2 such a short time.
Dr.Robert White thinks he knows a way of help.He thinks doctors should make the hurt brain 3 to live for 30 minutes without blood.This gives the doctor a longer time to do something for the brain.Dr.White experimented his 4 on fifteen monkeys. 5 he taught them to do different jobs.Then he operated on them.He made the monkeys’ blood go through a machine.When the brains’ 6 was 10 ℃, he stopped the blood to the brain.After 30 minutes, he turned the blood back on.He 7 the blood again.After their operations, the monkeys were almost 8 before.They were healthy and busy.Each one could still do the job the doctor 9 them.
