My mom taught me that life，like dinner，doesn't require a recipe. 39 she cooked the most complicated meals，she 40 cooked from a recipe.

It all happened in 46 motion. The bank manager 47 my father call him，but my mom said stubbornly，"Why? It's my loan." "Well，I can't give you a loan unless he co-signs，" replied the manager. But my mom didn't 48 hope，and responded sincerely，"I see. Then can you do me a favor，if he does? I' d 49 it if you'd put together the paperwork quickly. I need a shop in order to support my family."
Moved by her 50 ，the manager agreed to do as she asked. So 51 was I that I included that day into my DNA.
Through her influence，I've become someone who 52 what she wants until she gets it. If something or someone is in my way，I 53 how to overcome the difficulties. It's really that 54 . It's not about getting angry. It's about getting what you want，being very， comp
etitive，but also extremely 55 . I learned this in the ninth grade from my mom， and it burned itself into my brain.
