My mother was a housewife. She thought that successful people spent a lot more time {#blank#}1{#/blank#} than watching TV. So she asked my brother and me to read two books every week in our free time. She would check them with marks, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} she couldn't read the books at all.
When I went to school, I was an A-student, but not for long. I wanted cool {#blank#}3{#/blank#} and hung out with friends. I went from being an A-student to a C-student, but I didn't care. One night, I complained about not having enough Italian T-shirts. Then my mother gave me all her money. She said I could get the money {#blank#}4{#/blank#} to buy shirts if I finished buying all things the family needed. I was very {#blank#}5{#/blank#} that, but after I bought those things, there was no money left. I got to know how {#blank#}6{#/blank#} it was for my mother to do all this. I went back to my studies and become an A-student again. Finally, my dream {#blank#}7{#/blank#} and I become a doctor.
My story is really my mother's story--a woman with little education greatly changed my life as a {#blank#}8{#/blank#} . So, I believe there is no job more important than parenting.

    In a tree in a jungle, there once lived many birds. They were  h{#blank#}1{#/blank#} in their small nests（鸟巢） and sang every day. Before the rainy season arrived, all the animals in the jungle repaired their homes. The birds a{#blank#}2{#/blank#}made their homes safer.

    Many birds brought twigs （细枝） and leaves and others wove（编织） their nests."We  s{#blank#}3{#/blank#}also store some food for our children," said one of the birds. And they collected food until they had enough to see them through the rainy season. They kept  t{#blank#}4{#/blank#}busy getting ready for the bad times.

    Soon the rain came. It was f{#blank#}5{#/blank#}by thunder and lightning. All the animals and birds stayed at their homes. It kept raining for many days. One day, a monkey wet in the rain came into the jungle. He sat on a branch（树枝）, shaking w{#blank#}6{#/blank#}cold.

    The poor monkey tried his best to get a place, but f{#blank#}7{#/blank#}. The leaves were not enough to save him from the rain."Brrr! Itis so cold!" said the monkey. The birds were watching all this. They felt sorry for the monkey,  b{#blank#}8{#/blank#}there was little they could do for him. One of them said. "Brother! Our small nests are not big enough to give you shelter." Another bird said, "All ofus prepared for the rainy season. If you had, you would not be in this difficult  s{#blank#}9{#/blank#}".

    "How dare you tell me what to do?" said the monkey, shouting at the "bird. The monkey  a{#blank#}10{#/blank#}hit the bird's nest and threw it on the ground. The bird and her babies were helpless.

    The poor birds thought, "Fool never value（重视） good advice. It is better not to advise them ".

    I took the bus to school every day when I was in primary school. Alvin, our bus {#blank#}1{#/blank#}, picked us up every morning. We were all from {#blank#}2{#/blank#} families. My parents could hardly sup-port the family with {#blank#}3{#/blank#} children.

    Once a month, Alvin stopped at the local bus stop. Then someone came out and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} each of us if we wanted an ice-cream or a drink. Alvin paid for it. At the end of the school year, he took us to {#blank#}5{#/blank#} home for dancing. The {#blank#}6{#/blank#} that he showed was amazing. We didn't get treats like that too often, so what he did for us was {#blank#}7{#/blank#} remembered.

    Twenty years later, I called him and {#blank#}8{#/blank#} him for all he did for us .I told him that he probably couldn't remember me, but I sure {#blank#}9{#/blank#} him! And I could hear smile in his voice when he said he was happy that I called.

    He is the reason why I do my {#blank#}10{#/blank#} to show kindness to everyone I meet. He has had a big influence on my life. And I am very pleased that I was able to tell him.
