As a teenager, I didn’t get along well with my mother before. She 36 every aspect of my life, leaving me unable to have my 37 space.
About two years ago, I had a 38 with her. I just couldn’t control my bad temper that day. I said something 39 to mum. Mum was hurt, but she went away without saying anything.
When I was 40 at home. I started to recall the happy time we spent together and realized that I should 41 . But when I saw mum, the 42 moments pushed all the thoughts of saying sorry out of my head. I came back to my bedroom, feeling distracted (心烦意乱的). That night I didn’t’ 43 well.
The next day, I got up earlier than usual. And I 44 a letter beside my bed. It was mum! In this letter, mum 45 how she loved me and how she worried about me. The 46 of mum’s love raced through my mind when I read it. I couldn’t help crying out. I went out of the bedroom and saw mum standing there 47 me.
“I am sorry, mum, Please 48 me!” I said with a guilty conscience (愧疚感). Then I saw tears of 49 coming into mum’s eyes. We embraced (拥抱) emotionally. That moment was totally in my 50 forever.

By telling my story, I just want 53 people to know that if you have problems with you parents, try to find the 54 . Never think that you have nothing to talk with them.

When the mills and mines were still open around Hebden Bridge, a northern English town, playing children showered the streets with sparks from the iron plates on their woodenclogs (木底鞋), the only shoos they could afford.
“At one time, they were the cheapest kind of footwear, ”said master clog-maker John Merrick, 62. “They used to use clogs in the mills. You would walk to Work in the morning and all you could hear was the chick-clock of the sales.”
Merrick, who has been making clogs since he started as a teenage apprentice (学徒) 47 years ago, can remember when he was paid just 1.50 pounds (US $ 2) for a dozen pairs of the shoos, whose leather tops and iron bottoms are nailed to wooden soles. Three decades ago, he sold 500 pairs of metal tipped industrial clogs a week to the Ford Motor Company for workers to wear in their factories.“That’s before they got all those robots,(机械设备)” he said, swinging his arms to imitate automation (自动控制). “We used to be really, really busy.”
Today, clogs cost 30 pounds (US $ 42) to 50 pounds a pair. Merrick, who can nail together a shoe in minutes, makes about 100 pairs a week.
One of the last clog-makers in Britain-he knows of only two others-Merrick says he does not know when he retires. He will have to train his successor (继承者)at Walkley’s Clog Factory in Hebden Bridge how to pull leather over wooden soles an tap on the traditional horseshoe-shaped irons underneath.
In his workshop by a canal, Merrick sells wooden-soledpatent leather (漆皮) clogs, open-toed sandals (凉鞋),industrial steel-toed work boots and mini-clogs that customers can hang over the dashboards (汽车的仪表板) of their cars. Enthusiasts can pick up a clog purse or even a pair of clog earrings(耳饰). Merrick said he still gets orders from brickyards(砖厂)and glass companies for industrial clogs.
1.When Merrick was an apprentice, a pair of clogs cost ________.
[ ]
2.The word“shower” ( in Para. 1)most probably means ________.
[ ]
3.Today, Merrick sells his clogs to ________.
[ ]
4.Comparing to 3 decades ago, the different situation in making clogs is ________.
[ ]
A.more and more people become enthusiastic about clogs
B.Merrick becomes busier and busier
C.clogs cost more and mare
D.Merrick got mare. and more orders from brickyard
5.which of the following statements is true?
[ ]
A.Merrick is the only one who masters the skill of clog-making.
B.Merrick will give way to his successor very soon.
C.Merrick can make different kinds of clogs.
D.The children in the past liked clogs more than the children today.

A broken antique radio – a wedding gift, Guan says – sits on a crumbling concrete bed, untouched for decades.

Guan Yifan,Mo’s father,says that Mo does not come hack home often,but when he does,“we just talk about what’8 happening our home hew the tomatoes are growing,that type of thing.”Inside the house,faded family pictures hang on newspaper-covered walls;outside,his courtyard over-flows with corn,the fruits of a good harvest.
Although Guan says that he has never read his son’s books,he is proud of Mo’s achievements.“We’re all just happy,”he says.“Very,very happy.”
