When I was growing up， I do not recall 1 （hear） the words “I love you” from my father. When your father never says 2 （they） to you when you are a child， it gets tougher and tougher for him 3 （say） those words as he gets 4 （old）. To tell the truth， I could not honestly remember 5 I had last said those words to him， either. I decided to set my ego （自我） aside and make the first move. After some 6 （hesitate）， in our next phone conversation I blurted out （脱口说出） the words， “Dad… I love you！”
There was a silence at the other end and he 7 （awkward） replied， “Well， same back at you！”
I laughed and said， “Dad， I know you love me， and when you are ready， I know you will say what you want to say.”
A few weeks later， Dad concluded our phone conversation 8 the words， “Paul， I love you.” I was at work during this conversation and the tears were rolling down my cheeks 9 I finally “heard” the love. As we both sat there in tears we 10 （realize） that this special moment had taken our father-son relationship to a new level.

As a working mom with three young sons， 1 （keep） the house clean is a big challenge. Though we clean the house every week， one hour later after cleaning our bedrooms and bathrooms are back to their 2 （mess） look. When asked， my boys will help neaten their room， clear their plates from the table and pick up their school junk. But I need to remind them 3 it again and again.
If I don’t remind them， I will step over all the things that make my house look like a garbage can. This is quite 4 change from my pre-kid years when I never 5 （leave） any waste in the house. 6 seems that I cannot get these days back again at my own house.
When last week I found a program 7 （call） “Share a Healthy Habit” on a newspaper， I saw a great chance to engage 8 （I） sons in cleaning chores. Why not encourage these behaviors during the summer， while school is out and their life is 9 （relax）？
The goal for my boys is 10 （clean） their own dorm room themselves when they are free. The rewards for cleaning habits start young， so I need to start my plan as soon as possible.

One day a farmer’s donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously （可怜地） for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally， he decided the animal was old， and the well needed 1 （cover） up anyway； it just wasn’t worth saving the donkey. He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel （铲） and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first， the donkey realized 2 was happening and cried horribly. Then， 3 everyone’s amazement， he quieted down. A few shovel loads 4 （late）， the farmer finally looked down the well. He was 5 （astonish） at what he saw. With each shovel of what hit his back， the donkey was doing something 6 （amaze）. He would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon， everyone was amazed as the donkey 7 （step） up over the edge of the well and 8 （happy） ran off！
Each of our troubles 9 （be） a steppingstone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not giving 10 ！ Shake it off and take a step up.

Some people are right-handed and some are left-handed. No one knows the reason 1 a person becomes right-handed or left-handed. It’s not true that it is caused by the way in which his parents educate him. 2 other words， a person is born to be right-handed or left-handed. Moreover， the left-handed and the right-handed think 3 （different）. Having to use the hand you’re not used to can be very 4 （upset）.
One day I tried an experiment： changing hands 5 eating rice with chopsticks. Being a right-hander， I hoped it would not be too hard for me 6 （take） the food with my left hand. Soon after I started， I 7 （realize） I didn’t know what I was doing. So I moved in front of a big mirror. Looking at 8 （I） in the mirror， I found I looked like a man who had never used chopsticks before.
My experience shows that 9 （force） to use the hand one is not used to affects a person’s mind. So we should not try to change a left-hander to a right-hander. Some people still think being left-handed is bad， but luckily this idea is 10 （change）.

I was once asked to deliver a speech 1 （title） “A Real Test in My Life” before the whole class. Just imagine how 2
（terrible） shy I was the moment I thought of that with so many eyes fixed upon me. I had no other 3 （choose）， though. First I was to draft the speech and that was just a piece of cake for me. But the hard part 4 （lie） in my oral presentation； I had to give the speech 5 my memory. A real trial began when I stood on the platform with my legs 6 （tremble） and my mind blank. How much time had passed by， I didn’t know. My listeners were still waiting. Gradually I found myself back， giving out my speech with difficulty. Finally I finished. After 7 seemed to be a hundred years， I found my audience applauding. I made it！ From then on， my fear of 8 （talk） before an audience disappeared. Actually with my confidence building up， I now turn out 9 （be） a great speaker. Looking back， I know the greatest difficulty on our way to success is our fear； overcome it， 10 we will be able to achieve our goals.

One hot summer day， my family spent our vacation in Hawaii， 1 （enjoy） the beaches. Both of my daughters played all day in a boat. Later the little one got tired. Therefore， I took her to our spot on the sand as my elder girl continued to play in the boat. But the boat with my elder daughter in it was 2 （gradual） moving far out from the shore. I called to her to come closer to the shore and she seemed 3 （frighten）.
I stood far out in the water， shouting 4 （instruct） to her. Fortunately， some teenagers in a boat not far from her noticed what was happening and started 5 （head） her way immediately.
I’m not a good swimmer but I determined to have 6 try. I continued swimming until I no longer knew 7 could feel that I had legs， but I always kept my eyes on her. 8 （Help） by the teenagers， I finally made my way back pulling her and calming her.
I’ve learned 9 the experience maybe we think we are not strong enough sometimes， but if we trust ourselves enough and take the 10 （one） attempt， we’ll have all the strength we need.
