 (浙江省温州中学2007届高三第三次模拟考试)

In Glasgow, Scotland, a young lady, like a lot of teens today, got tired of home. The daughter objected to her family’s __21__ lifestyle and said, “I don’t want your God. I am leaving!”

She left home. Before long, she was disappointed and unable to find a job, so she took to the streets to do everything she could to __22__. Many years passed by, her father died, her mother grew __23__, and the daughter became more and more stubborn（顽固） in her way of life.

       No contact was made between mother and daughter during these years. The mother, not having __24__ her daughter’s whereabouts (下落), went to the poor part of the city in __25__ of her daughter. She stopped at each of the rescue missions (救助团) with a simple __26__. “Would you allow me to __27__ this picture?” It was a picture of the smiling, grey-haired mother with a handwritten __28__ at the bottom: “I love you still …come home!”

       One day the daughter wandered into a rescue mission for a hot meal. She sat __29__ listening to the service, all the while letting her __30__ wander over to the bulletin board. There she saw the picture and thought, could that be my mother?

       She couldn’t __31__ until the service was over. She stood up and went to look. It was her mother, and there were those words, “I love you still…come home!” __32__ she stood in front of the picture, she wept. It was too __33__ to be true.

       It was night, but she was so __34__ by the message that she started walking home. __35__ the time she arrived it was early in the morning. She was afraid and __36__ her way timidly (胆怯地). As she knocked, the door __37__ open on its own. She thought someone must have broken into the house. Concerned for her mother’s __38__, the young woman ran to the bedroom and shook her mother awake and said, “It’s me! It’s me! I’m home!”

       The mother couldn’t believe her eyes. They fell into each other’s arms. The daughter said, “I was so worried and __39__ someone had broken in.” The mother replied gently, “No, dear. From the day you left, that door has never been __40__.”
