　[2010·河北唐山市二模]

词数：323　 体裁：夹叙夹议　 难度：4

Tears clouded my eyes as I stood in our washing room, holding Brett’s jeans and full of burn holes.

Tired and defeated, I　 21　 to the floor. The clothes were just one more thing Brett had　 22　 .He often got almost everything in the house out of　　 23　 .Many windows in our house needed repair due to his breaking　 24　 to steal money when he chose to live on the street. Yet none of this could compare to the emotional　 25　 　　　Brett had done to our once quiet home.

Brett came to live with us when he was 12 years old. During the next few years I had dealt with Brett a　 26　 as possible, but inside I was shouting.“I don’t want him in my house another day, Lord! I just can’t　 27　 him!” Having wiped my tears, I continued　 28　 him as before.

When Brett was nearly 18, he landed again in Juvenile Hall(少管所).After that, my husband and I had to send Brett to a boarding school for helping　 29　 teens.

At the　 30　 ceremony, each graduate held a white rose to give to the person who had　 31　 the most to him or her.

Brett spoke　 32　 to his parents and then spoke to me, “You did so much. You were always there, no matter　 33　 .My mom and dad, I was their kid. But you,　 34　 　　　troubled enough by me, always　 35　 me such love. And I want you to know I love you for it.”

　 36　 , I stood as Brett placed the white rose in my hand and hugged me　 37　 .

　　 At that moment, tears　 38　 in my eyes again, this time not for disappointment but for　 39　 . Although I had struggled with silent　 40　 toward my stepson, Brett had seen only my actions. Love is action. We may not always have positive feelings about certain people in our lives, but we can love them.
