    One day，I took my daughter to the park．As soon as we got there，my daughter {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（run） to the swing （秋千）and asked for a push．When I was helping my daughter，I noticed another girl trying to make her own swing {#blank#}2{#/blank#}（go） high by herself．Her old grandmother was sitting on the chair nearby and smiling at us．Gradually，my daughter {#blank#}3{#/blank#}（push） higher and higher by me．

    Then I walked towards the little girl．I asked if I {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（give） a big push to her．She smiled and said “Yes”． For the next hour，I pushed the swings，and played with my daughter and the little girl． When we went home，I {#blank#}5{#/blank#}（be） tired but very happy．

    One day two years later，after a day's work，I went to pick up my daughter before going home．

    While I {#blank#}6{#/blank#}（wait） outside the school gate，a little girl smiled sweetly at me and gave me a big hug．As I watched her {#blank#}7{#/blank#}（run） away，I realized that she was the girl whom I gave a big push in the park．

    So far，I {#blank#}8{#/blank#}（not forget） her sweet smile and the warm hug that she gave me．

    In fact，if we give love to others，love {#blank#}9{#/blank#}（find） its way back to us．It may travel from heart to heart or it may blossom （开花）in the heart．The love we share，the kindness we {#blank#}10{#/blank#}（give），and the happiness we create will come back to us with a pleasant surprise．

Dear Mary,

    How are you? It is two years since I saw you last time. I remember you were very busy helping your friend get ready for {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (she) wedding (婚礼) at that time. I hope it all went well and the weather stayed fine for you.

    I'm writing to tell you something {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (excite). My brother Andy finally decided {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (have) his wedding on 20 March.

    We'll send you {#blank#}4{#/blank#} invitation in a few weeks but this is just to let you know. We will invite relatives and close friends, so there {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (be) about forty people there. We look forward to {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (meet) you!

    I know it's quite a long way {#blank#}7{#/blank#} you to come, but Robbie is driving up from Manchester. So maybe you can {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (come) together. If not, I can meet you at the station-just tell me when your train arrives. In this way, you can get here even {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (early) than Robbie.

    I'm going away for two weeks from tomorrow, but you can call my parents at 0131-445892 {#blank#}10{#/blank#} send me an email. I really hope you can come!

Love from Marianne
