My mom is a teacher.She finds a lesson in everything.I was watching Sesame Street by my second birthday so I’d   16   my ABCs and 123s.Our weekly family trips to the library began when I was three.And my mom had me spotting (认出) the historical markers with childlike   17   on family vacations by the time I was six.For her, life was all about learning.But the biggest lesson she   18   me was never to let my   19   define who I am, and never forget what is   20   in life.
I was born with Freeman-Sheldon Syndrome, an extremely   21   genetic bone and muscular disorder.There are only about 100 reported   22 .At birth, my knees were bent more than 90 degrees, and I had my first surgery to   23   them when I was just six weeks old.This surgery was the first of many in my   24 .I’d had 26 surgeries by the time I was 15.
Strange as it   25  , I have good memories of my medical days.One of my   26   is about my mom and me being in the hospital cafeteria(自助餐厅).We sat down for an ice cream sandwich dessert.It was   27   fancy, but at that moment, I knew I was   28 .
My parents pushed me to be as   29   as possible — even when I didn’t want to be.My mom taught me that I could do anything and that I should   30   let my disability stop me.In high school, I was a member of the National Honor Society, and in college, I was editor-in-chief of my school newspaper.I wouldn’t have had the   31   to push myself if my parents hadn’t been there,   32   me on and giving me a reality check when I got down on myself.
Every night before I go to bed, I   33   my mom for everything, for all the great help she’s given me.And   34   I get older, I know that “Thanks, Mom” is about so much more than the physical assistance.And that’s   35   matters the most.

举一反三
A long time ago, there was a seed and because he was only a seed, nobody noticed him.Thus, feeling inferior (低等的), the seed gave no importance to his existence (存在).
Then one day, a wind picked him up and threw him on an open field under the sun.Later, he was given rain.
Years later he saw a traveler sitting by his side.“Thank God for this.I really need some rest,” he heard the traveler say.
“What are you talking about?” the seed quickly asked.He thought the man was making fun of him.No one ever spoke to him like that.
“Who just spoke?” the shocked man asked.
“It is me.A seed.”
`“A seed?” The man looked at the big tree.“Are you joking? You are not a seed.You are a big tree!”
“Really?”
“Yes! Why else do you think people come here?”
“What do they come here for?”
“To feel your shade (树荫)! Don’t tell me you didn’t know you had grown over time.”
A moment passed before the traveler’s words brought him pride.
The seed thought and smiled for the first time in his life.The years of torture (折磨) by the sun and the rain finally helped him grow up.
“Oh! That means I’m not a little seed anymore! I was actually born to make people feel comfortable.Wow! That’s great!”

Years ago while lying in my hammock (吊床)and drinking JD from the bottle, I noticed my dog dragging something under the fence.Upon inspection, to my disappointment, I realized it was the next door neighbor" s 10 - year - old daughter" s rabbit.For years I had watched her come home from school and head straight out to its cage, free it and play with it in the yard.I knew that day would be no different and fearing for our dog, I had to think fast.
The rabbit was quite dirty, as if it had put up quite a struggle, so I washed it, combed it with the dog brush and blew it dry with the leaf blower.Upon finishing its grooming I jumped the fence and replaced it back in its cage hoping its death would be written off as "natural caused".

A beggar, carrying a shabby(破旧的) old wallet, was begging alone from house to house. As he complained about his 36 , he kept wondering that people who lived in 37 houses should always be unsatisfied, 38 rich they might be, and they should go so far as to 39 all they have.
“Here, for example,” he said, the former master of this house succeeded in trading, and made himself very rich. By then, instead of stopping, and handing over his 40 to another, and spending the rest of his years 41 peace, he took to(从事) equipping ships. He expected to get mountains of gold; but the ships were 42 , and his treasures were lost. Now they all lie at the bottom of the sea, and he has found his 43 disappeared like those in dreams. In short, examples of this are 44.
At this moment Fortune suddenly appeared to the beggar and said, “Listen! I have long wished to 45 you. Here are a lot of gold coins I have found. Hold out your wallet, and I will fill it with them; but only on this condition: All shall be gold that falls into the wallet, but if 46 of them falls out of the wallet to the ground, it 47 become dust. Consider this well. I have warned you I shall 48 keep my word. Your wallet is old, don’t fill it 49 its power.” The beggar was almost too overjoyed to breathe. He 50 felt the ground below his feet. A stream of coins were poured 51 it. The wallet soon became rather heavy.
“Is that 52 ?” “Not yet,” “Isn’t it 53 ?” “Never fear.” “Consider, you are a millionaire.” “Just a little more, just 54 a handful,” But at that moment the wallet broke, the gold coins 55 dust and Fortune disappeared. The beggar had nothing but his empty wallet and remained as poor as before.
