(2010年成都第一次诊断)

I was fifteen months old，a happy kid until the day I fell.It was a__1__fall.I landed on a glass rabbit which cut my eye badly enough to make it blind.Trying to save the eye，the doctors stitched (缝合) the eyeball together where it was__2__，leaving a big ugly scar (疤痕) in the middle of my eye.The attempt__3__，but my mother，in all of her wisdom，found another doctor who knew that if the eye were removed__4__，my face would grow up badly distorted (扭曲)，__5__my scarred，sightless，cloudy and gray eye lived on with me.As I grew，this sightless eye in so many ways__6__me.

I walked with my face looking at the__7__so that people would not see the__8__me.Yet my mother would say to me，at every turn，“Hold your head up high and__9__the world.If you hold your head up high，it will be OK，and people will see your__10__soul.” She continued this__11__whenever I was trying to hide.

Mama’s words were of great help for me to face the world__12__.As a teenager，even though I tended to look down to hide my shame，I found that sometime when I held my head up high and let people know me，they__13__me.In high school，I was__14__both academically　 and socially.I was__15__elected class president.My mother’s words helped me begin to realize that by letting people look at my face，I let them__16__the intelligence and beauty behind both eyes，even if they couldn’t see it on the__17__.

Now I’m a happy wife and great mother.The message “Hold your head up high” has been__18__many times in my__19__home.Each of my children has felt__20__invitation，and the gift my mother gave me has lived on in another generation.
