Mum,it’s me.Hopefully,this Mothering Sunday you will get to hear those three words.I will,of course,try to phone you.I hope we will be able to speak for the allowed 10 minutes.But I suspect many inmates will be using the phone,so if I don’t call and if we don’t speak,then this is what I would have said:

It’s not your fault that I am here.I know that deep in your heart you have questioned whether my current circumstance is somehow your fault,if the reckless stupidity of my past is somehow a failure on your part.It is not.Only one person is to blame,only one person should hurt — me.You have always taught me that when the room goes dark,you can wait for the lights to be switched back on or you can search in the dark and turn the light on yourself.You are my light.You always have been and always will be.There is nobody I admire more,nobody I have strived harder to please in my life,which is why my current failure hurts me so much.

I am so sorry that I will not be there to see you,but I want you to know that now,as always,you are here with me.In my darkest hours,and in the coldest loneliness of my past few months,my mind has so often wandered to the past,to when it was you and me — and I have been able to smile.Yours is the strength that I draw upon.

A parent’s job is to make sure that they pass on the best of themselves to their children.You have done that.It is the inner you in me that will get me through this.

I have failed you so epically,but you have never failed me.If I think back to the tears I shed when Dad left,all those years ago,I see you through their misty glaze.You holding me and you telling me we’d be OK,and we will be.We are and always will be the best team.

Childhood heroes such as footballers,actors and rock stars are clichéd.If the job’s done right,a child’s heroes should be their parents — you are mine.The strength you showed after the divorce from Dad to find your biological parents,to go to university and get your teaching qualifications,to begin your life again,is the strength that I draw on now.It is the belief in myself,it is the belief you have in me,that tells me that once I am released I can and will rebuild my life.I will make you proud again.I will make you happy to have me as your son.Yours is the will that gets me through every day.

I don’t believe you can judge a person for the mistakes they make,as we all make them,but you can judge them for what they do afterwards.And after this,when it is all over,you will still have a son with the same hopes and dreams.They have not diminished.If you can dream it,then you have to believe it can happen — right?

So this Mothering Sunday,please think back to that morning in the 80s,the first Mother’s Day without Dad,when a six year old me got up early and made breakfast for you.Do you remember it?Could you ever forget?A slice of bread a doorstep thick and a wedge of cheese equally dense.You didn’t have to eat it,but you did,chewing every dry mouthful.I know now why you forced yourself — because it had been made with love.Well,things don’t change this year — this letter is that bread and cheese (it sure has plenty of the cheese!).

I love you so much.I am sorry I have let you down,but you have taught me that we will always pick ourselves up and become better than we were before.Thank you for everything and this year,more than ever:

Happy Mothering Sunday.

Love,your son

Compassion(同情,怜悯) is a desire within us to help others. With effort, we can translate compassion into actions. An experience last weekend showed me this is true. I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly. These old people are our main customers, and it’s not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. This untidy man walked up to my register(收款机)with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cash (现金), had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day.

I couldn’t help staring at him. I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world. I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn’t allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job.

Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable. “Change it to me, ” was all he said.

What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. Compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion.

1.The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits_________ .

A.hoped to have the food first and pay later

B.promised to obey the store rules

C.forgot to take any money with him

D.could not afford anything more expensive

2.Which of the following best describes the old gentleman?

A.kind and lucky B.friendly and helpful

C.poor and lonely D.hurt and disappointed

3.The writer acted according to the store rules because_________ .

A.he felt no pity for the old gentleman

B.he considered the old man dishonest

C.he expected someone else to pay for the old man

D.he wanted to keep his present job

4.What does the writer learn from his experience?

A.Wealth is more important than anything else

B.Experience is better gained through practice

C.Obeying the rules means more than compassion.

D.Helping others is easier said than done
