Every year on my birthday, a white gardenia (栀子花) was   31  to my house. But no card or note came with it. Calls to the flower shop were always   32  －it was a cash purchase. After a while I stopped trying to  33  the sender’s identity and just  34  in the beauty and heady perfume of that one magical，perfect white flower lying in  35  pink paper．

    But I never stopped  36  who the giver might be．My mother  37  to these imaginations．She asked me if there was someone for whom I had done a special  38  who might be showing appreciation．I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy I fell in love with or one who had  39  me even though I didn’t know him．

    One month  40  my high-school graduation．my father died．My feelings  41  from sorrow to fear and  42  ：my dad was missing some of the most important events in my life．I became completely  43  in my coming graduation，the senior-class play and the ball．But my mother would not hear of my  44  any of those things．Mother and I had gone shopping and found an impressive dress，but it was the  45  size．When my father died，I forgot about the dress．

    The day before my ball，I found that dress——in the right size——over the living room sofa．It was  46  to me so lovingly．I didn’t  47  if I had a new dress or not．But my mother did．She wanted her children to feel  48  ，filled with a sense that there was a beauty even in the face of  49  ．In truth，my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia——lovely，strong and perfect——with an aura of magic and perhaps a bit of mystery．

    My mother died ten days after l was married．The following year the gardenia stopped  50  ．

When you are learning English, you find   21   wrong to translate a sentence word for word into your   22   language. Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an   23  . If you look   24   each word in the 25  , one at a time, what is your   26  ? It must be a   27   sentence in your native language. Languages do not only have different sounds, they are also   28  in many other ways. It is very   29  to master the rules of word   30   in the study of English, too. If the   31   puts words in a very unusual order, the listener doesn’t   32  the speaker’s sentence easily.
Another thing we must always   33  is that there are a lot of   34   in the English language. For example when we say “look out!” to a man who is in danger, we   35   mean “Be careful!”
When people are parting, they often say “Good—bye   36  ” “Bye—bye!” But sometimes they   37  say “Good morning!” or “Good afternoon!” or “Good evening!”  38  “Good night!” to one another   39  “Good—bye!” You will find few people   40  who know that “Good—bye!” is a short way of saying “God be with you!”

Our children grew up on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, although my husband and I sometimes sneak one late at night with a glass of milk. I believe that the success of this 31 lovedconcoction(混合物) lies not in the brand of peanut butter,  32  in the jelly. The right jelly  33  the palate, and homemade is the only choice.

My mother-in-law was the jelly maker in this family. This limited choice was a welcome   34  in the days of toddlers, siblings and puppies. All I did was to  35  baby food jars, which my mother-in-law would seal with wax(蜡) and  36  back home with us.  37  I wanted to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich , all I had to do was reach for one of little jars. Jelly making was just a way of 38   for my mother-in-law. She always did it, setting the 39  jelly on the shelves .

My father-in-law died several years ago and this past December, she also  40 . Among the things in the house to be divided by her children were the  41  canned goods.

The other day I reached my pantry(储物间) for jelly for a quick sandwich. Sitting all alone on the far side of the shelf was a small jar of grape jelly, whose lid was  42  in places.  43   on it were “GR” for grape and the year when the jelly was made.

As I picked up the jar, I suddenly realized something that I had  44  to see earlier. This was the last jar we would ever have from the  45 , loving hands . We hardly ever opened a jar of jelly at table without  46  about those thousands of little jars she had filled. It seems like such a small thing, and most days it was something that was  47   for granted.

No longer was it just a jar of jelly. It was the end of a family  48 . We have hundreds of pictures and many more memories that we expect to   49  the years and to pass on to our children. The jar of jelly won’t keep that long. It will either have to be eaten or  50  ...but not today.
