People can hardly believe that Fred Carey is one of the best students in his class. He used 1 a trouble maker and often drove his teacher mad.

Fred's father died when he was just a 2 boy. Life became 3 for him. His mother had to work to pay for his education. As a result, she was seldom at home. She tried to look 4 him well, but Fred caused a lot of problems for himself and his family. He had no 5 in studying and often got into trouble with the police. Luckily, his mother was very patient and didn't give up 6 him. 7 the end, she made a difficult decision 8 him to a boys' boarding school. Fred hated it at first and caused even 9 trouble. He told his teacher he wanted to leave the school. Even the teacher agreed that Fred was wasting his time.

The headmaster suggested that Fred should have a talk with his mother. "It was exactly 10 I needed." he said. "My mother helped me understand how much she had given to me. She also told me that 11 my father was no longer with us, he was watching me and would always be proud of everything good I had done. That's the time when I decided to change. I realized that since my father 12 , I had been afraid of being alone, and had tried to make my mother 13 more about me."

Now Fred has 14 changed. He has been working hard. How was he able to change? His mother's love helped him to feel good about himself, and as Fred himself says, "15 very important for parents to be there for their children."
