Hearing the front door open, I ran down to the kitchen and waited. I saw may dad come in, with the white envelope in his hand. I had waited all day for this, so I reached over him for it as soon as he set foot into the house. Angrily, he   41   the envelope on the table and said it was nothing to get excited about, and that it was just a piece of paper. I grabbed (抓取) it and ran upstairs. I wondered why my dad did not understand how   42   I was to see my mid-year report card for my first year inmiddle school. I was really   43   by how he refused to consider all my hard work.

I saw my class rank (等级) :1/139. I did not believe what I saw. I felt my lip ( 嘴唇) form a smile and wanted to run downstairs to tell everyone. Then I   44   what my da had said----it was nothing to get excited about. I wanted to share my happiness with someone, but felt lonely.

I realized that I had become distant (远离的) from my family. We used to   45   late watching Disney movies,and my brothers, sisters and I would play tennis in the backyard all the time. I wondered when all that   46  . I just no longer took part in them. My school work   47   all my time and energy

While I had been busy with my study, I had also built a   48   between me and my familly. I was only trying to become a person everyone could be   49   of.

I wanted to go downstairs, say sorry for my rude behavior and for every refused movie and tennis game, and be   50   of my family again. I knew I had to do something ----because without their support, my achievement meant nothing.

Wang Ling, a middle school girl, felt angry with her parents after getting a boy’s phone call. “A classmate called me to discuss homework. We talked   41   just a few minutes before my parents got mad,” said the girl. “They asked whether I liked the boy. I said I didn’t,  42   they wouldn’t believe me.”

Wang’s trouble is not strange at all because puppy love (早恋) becomes a big headache for  43  parents and schools. They worry that puppy love will be bad for  44   . Her school makes it a rule not to allow any talk or any physical contact (身体接触)  45    one boy and one girl alone.

Many students say they understand  46   parents and teachers are so nervous about puppy love. But some think they are going too far. “We have our own thoughts and we know what to  47   with it,” said Wang Ling.

  Another girl, Jiang Ting, liked making friends with boys. “Boys and girls can learn from each other,” she said. “My mother asks me to study hard. However, she  48  stops me from making friends with boys.” Once Jiang told her mother she might fall in love with a boy. Her mother let Jiang make  49  own decision. Soon Jiang found that she didn’t like him any more because the boy was not as   50  as what she had thought before. And she did worse and worse in her subjects because she spent much on it. At last she understood the worry from schools and most parents about puppy love.

When I was small, my mum used to give the family something special for meals —she would make breakfast food for dinner.  

I still remember one night my mum   31    some bread in front of my dad, something very burnt. I waited to see if anybody noticed. To my surprise, my dad just took his    32   , smiled at my mum and then turned to ask me how my day at school had been. I've   33   what I told him that night.   34   I do remember watching him put some butter on that bread. He  35   as usual, every single bit. 

 After dinner, my mum said   36  to my dad for burning the bread. And I never forget what he said, "I    37    burnt bread, dear. It doesn't matter at all. "

38    , I went to kiss Dad good light. I asked him if he really liked his bread burnt. He held me in arms and   39  , “Your mum worked very hard all day. She's really _40_. And you see—a bit of burnt food never hurt anyone!”

    Now I know life is not perfect. _41_ is perfect, either. As for me. 1 often forget birthdays or some other special days. But I've learned something _42_ over these years. What we really need is the understanding of each other, whether between a husband and wife, a parent and _43_ or just between two friends. This is the key to a happy  44  .

So don't get angry if the bread gets burnt. Remember.    45  bread never hurt anyone. Be kind to those around you and a happier life will surely come closer to you.
