which reminded me of my girlhood.
It was my second day of 1 and it was raining heavily. I could not 2 the habit I had at home, so I fell
asleep right at my 3 . I woke up to find myself not in the classroom but carried on Dad"s back. We were
4 home. It was the last time I felt 5 to him.
After that, he never carried me or hugged me as other fathers did to their children. I was not bothered
much by this 6 . I was proud of it. for I felt 7 and "grown up". However,there were times when I felt
depressed by not having searched for 8 from him.
One day. I was writing Chinese characters as homework. I hated doing this more than anything. Dad
came and stood behind me for a moment, 9 me scratching (勾抹) the paper. Then he said,"This kind of
writing needs 10 .Your writing is not strong enough. Press harder." I followed his 11 for the next two
weeks. but 12 I could see little improvement.
I followed my own method-the 13 way. His advice did not improve my writing but our 14 . As I grew
older, I found out that he had finished his 15 in Grade 6,which was the highest grade in town then, so he
was considered to be a 16 .People used to ask him to write something to put on the walls. but he never felt
very useful.
He often said to me," As you can see, this family is going to count on (指望) you. We are 17 to improve
you anything for your future. You have to get 18 to change the life for yourself."
As a result of his 19 , I have 20 it through high school and through college.

| A story tells that a senior villager led some other villagers carrying salt day and night to a town in order to trade rice as food the winter. One night they camped in a wilderness with a starry sky above. The senior villager, obeying the tradition passed down from forefathers, took out three blocks of salt and threw them into the campfire, probably to predict the changes of weather in the mountains. All eagerly waited for the old man"s" weather report":if the salt in the fire produced crackling sound, they would have good weather in store；if no sound was produced, it then meant the good weather would soon end and a storm would come at any moment. The senior villager looked serious. The salt in the campfire made no sound at all. Convinced by this bad sign, he urged (催促) the whole team to set out immediately after daybreak. A young man in the group, however, insisted that they should not start in such a hurry, considering it superstitious to" forecast weather by using salt. It was not until the next afternoon that the young man caught up on the wisdom of the old man when the weather suddenly changed, with cold winds blowing and a snowstorm raging. In fact, the method used by the clan head could be well explained by modem science:whether or not salt produces sound in campfire depends on air humidity (湿度).That is to say, when a storm approaches, due to high humidity, the dampened salt blocks will not produce any sound in fire. | ||||||||||||||

| Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading. After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window.I would say to myself,"I wonder why that woman doesn"t wash her window. It really looks terrible." One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside. Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean! Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window. That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings? Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, "Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?" Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly. | ||||||||||||||

| In life, people come across many experiences, which they remember throughout their lives. I had a similar experience, too. I was very excited. It was the day of my last paper of the final examination. My mind was full of thoughts of how I would spend my vacation. I was especially excited of the invitation that my uncle had given me to stay with him for a few days in Cambridge. I was prepared for the subject, physics. My friends and I were on the ground doing the last minute revisions and also discussing the questions that were supposed to come in the paper. Suddenly the bell rang and we got into our classrooms. The teacher came and quickly handed out the answer paper and the question paper. The paper was of two hours and some of the expected questions came. I finished it almost forty-five minutes earlier. But since it was a rule not to collect the answer paper before the allotted (规定的) time. the teacher was not collecting and I had to sit till the time was over. I checked my paper twice and corrected some of the mistakes in it. I started thinking about the place my friends and I had planned to go after the paper. Though I was thinking for a long time, the time seemed to be endless. So I thought of drawing something on the question paper and turned it overleaf. I was shocked to see that the page which I had supposed to be blank had four more questions on it which carried 20 marks and would take at least half an hour to complete. I had a quick glance at my watch. There were only 10 minutes left. I was so nervous that I was hardly in a state to write anything. They were the sub-questions (小题) of the last question. Suddenly our physics teacher came in and told all of us that in the last question, out of 6 sub-questions only 2 had to be solved. I felt very much relieved. Thereafter I never made such mistakes again. But I realized that my anxiousness and excitement could have cost me to lose 20 marks and decided never to make such a mistake again. | ||||||||||||||
