It was freezing outside my car. I did not want to get out of it when we passed by a small grocery shop. Suddenly I 1 a tiny figure, bent and covered with some bits of cloth, trembling with the 2 from the harsh winds that were blowing so 3 that night. It was only 5 degrees that evening, which was freezing cold indeed. Here was an old man of 75, 4 in the corner of this store, waiting for anyone who would think of 5 him a single coin or a cup of hot tea. I asked my 6 to go over and hand this old man 7 . He looked into my husband"s face and smiled, and said, "Thank you." I felt so 8 and I prayed for the old man to live 9 the cold night. I was sure to visit again and find out 10 he was the next day, as I have to pass this way every day. I did so the 11 evening, and he remembered the car and came up to my 12 and smiled at me. This time I 13 him a bag of food. He reached out for the bag 14 I gave him my hand. He held it and smiled and said, "May God bless you." I looked at the old man and asked my husband, "Doesn"t he 15 you of someone? With that cap on his head and the 16 in his eyes and the warmth of his hand, I could tell you this: he reminds me of my 17 ." At a closer look, I saw my Daddy in this old man, waiting for anyone to show him some mercy or 18 . I do hope all of you who read this, will remember that maybe one day, it could happen to one of us, so please do not 19 by a poor person without offering at least a word of love and a kind smile or a(n) 20 of kindness of any kind. |

In divorce, you gain something and you 1 something. I"m thirteen years old, and I know what it 2 like when parents split up, because mine did last fall. My parents had been 3 for years. When my father started cheating my mom things went downhill, I 4 they would divorce instantly. I tried to picture my life after my parents 5 up-living at my mom"s house during the week, and my father"s house on the weekend. But my mom decided to be the bigger person and try to 6 it out, so that my siblings and I would know 7 it was like to have a family. Things didn"t get better, 8 . I would always strain to hear the quiet 9 they didn"t want me to hear. They weren"t getting along and they weren"t happy, My father has never really been there for me. He was there physically but not emotionally. He yelled a lot and never really showed any 10 in going to my piano recitals or watching my dance performances, 11 we asked him to do and he had another 12 -a lie. We just ignored it and went on with our lives as if nothing was the matter. Then last summer, there was real 13 in paradise. My siblings and I want out to Los Angeles to pursue acting and while we were out there, my father 14 my mom again, and this time my brother, sister, and I all found out. We decided to stay in L.A and leave my father in Florida. Our 15 resulted in divorce. We didn"t know if we were making the right 16 or not. My mom went back and forth. She wanted what was best for her children. She asked me if I thought we should go back to Florida or stay in Los Angeles, I replied mom "There is nothing in Florida for us any more. Out here in L.A, we have so many 17 , that can come true. We shouldn"t let him abuse us any more." Finally, we are free. The 18 was the best thing that had ever happened to me and the rest of my family. I now know that taking chances is the best thing to do. I accept that 19 doesn"t always. If, in your heart, you can feel something that is not right, then follow your heart. In the end it"s going to be your only true guide, to have and to hold, for richer or poorer, your heart will never 20 you down. | ( )1.A. lose ( )2.A. smells ( )3.A. happy ( )4.A. hoped ( )5.A. got ( )6.A .keep ( )7.A. how ( )8.A. though ( )9.A. talk ( )10.A. dislike ( )11.A.

I would sit in front of the TV all day and not think about anything except the next 1 . At that time, I didn"t know how 2 it was to have a passion in our life.

He looked happy and held a radio as if it was the most 8 thing he had. Seeing all this 9 me. "Mom, why does that man have a radio even though he"s homeless?" I asked. "He bought it," she replied. I was still 10 . "But if he"s homeless, why doesn"t he use his money to buy clothes? He 11 his money on something he doesn"t need. He should buy food."
