The day before my daughter Norah's fourth birthday, I picked her up from preschool. On the way, she said, “I like old people best because they walk slowly like I walk slowly and they have soft skin like I have soft skin.”What she said marked a 1beginning.

    The following day—her birthday—again on the way home, she asked 2 we could stop at the store to buy cakes for her. How could I say3 to a birthday girl? After paying for the bill, I noticed that Norah was standing up in the cart,4announcing, “Hi, old person! It's my birthday today!” However, the old man in front of her didn't show he was5 by my talkative child. He 6 with a smile, “Well, little lady! And how old are you today?” After a few minutes' chat, Norah offered to take a photo with the old man called Mr. Dan, his expression changed from surprised to delighted. We exchanged our phone numbers. There was magic happening in the store that day, and we could 7 feel it.

    During our first visit in Mr. Dan's home, We walked with him to his front door. He pulled out a knife and 8the only blooming red rose. He spent ten minutes cutting every thorn（刺）9 the stem（茎）before handing it to his new friend. Norah keeps that rose, now10as a bone, under her pillow for a long time.

    Norah asks about Mr. Dan every day. She worries about him. She wonders if he's 11 or cold. She wants him to be OK. She wants him to feel loved. Mr. Dan thinks about Norah too. After 12 recent visit, he said that he had 13 had a whole night's sleep since his wife died. “Norah has healed me since meeting her.” he said. That left me 14 and my eyes wet with tears. Somehow, their hearts and souls seem to recognize each other from long ago. Sometimes talking to strangers can 15 beautiful new beginnings.

A daughter graduated from college. Her father planned to teach her a 1 . He said to her," My darling, you have grown up. Now I'm considering 2 my car, and can you help me get a good price for it?" The daughter agreed. Then the father asked her to take the car to 3 places and then choose the best 4 .

The daughter knew that her father's car was a good one. She was 5 that the car was worth a good price although it looked pretty old. She went to the first place—a used car market, and they offered her $1,000. Then in a pawn(典当) shop, she was told the car was worth just $200, which really 6 the daughter. Finally, she went to a car club. The workers there told the daughter 7 that the car was very hard to 8 in the market because it had been no longer in production and that they wanted to buy the car any time at $50,000 and even more.

The daughter told these 9 to her father. The father said," Don't be surprised. The value of the car is different in different places. Only the right place can give you the right value. Therefore, if you are not appreciated(赏识) by someone, do not be angry. It just means you are in the 10 place. You should move on and go to a better place where you can certainly go far."

Hangzhou is a good city to live and visit. Many places like the West Lake and Lingyin Temple are very 1 . There are millions of people visiting them every year. But to me, I 2  Xixi Wetland Park. It is about ten kilometres from the West Lake. And it is China's first national wetland 3 . I didn't go there until last year 4  I have worked in Hangzhou for about 7 years. 

Last June, I got ill and had to have a 5  for days at home. The doctor saidI should get close to 6  often. He said the natural world would be better for my 7  than medicine. I listened to him and 8  the park with my husband for the first time. 

Tall trees, green grass and fresh air made me 9 . I forgot my busy work and illness. When I saw fish 10  freely in the river, I felt like I was a fish. My 311  said, "There are many rivers, 12  and marshes(沼泽) in the park. In fact, the waterways are over 100 km 13 . Over 50 kinds of fish and aquatic(水生的) animals are 14  here. This park is home to many animals. "

I'm not sure if the plants, fish and birds like the wetland park, but I 15  it. It really makes me relax.
