My father was in the navy, which meant that my mother was married to both my father and the sea. As was often the case, we had to pack our belongings into boxes and 41 those we had grown to love. We would arrive at our new home and find ourselves once again 42 at the pier（码头）waving good-bye to my father as his 43 pulled him away from us. My mother would turn my brother and I around before the ship was out of 44 , wipe our tears, and take us back home to start the process of 45 in the new environment again.
Throughout the years of changing 46 , schools and friends, there remained one constant in my childhood—my mother. For both my 47 and I, she was the cook, maid and teacher. She played these roles while 48 some type of part-time job. Leaving a promising career is just one of the 49 which my mother made for my family as we moved around the world with our father every three years or so. 50 she had to deal with only a small budget, my mother 51 managed to make each house to be the very home that is safe and 52 .
This probably sounds like a depressing way to live, 53 with two small children: “single” parenthood, short-term friendships, and the inability to 54 a career or establish a home. But it was not for my mother. She turned this 55 into adventure for us all! Each relocation was a chance to 56 another part of the world. My mother greeted each new culture, climate and neighborhood. Each new house was a 57 to rearrange furniture, make curtains and 58 pictures. Every part-time job was an opportunity to learn something new and work with interesting people.
No matter how difficult the life was, she was always having a 59 attitude. She always had strength in the face of struggle and change. My mother was so 60 all those years of my childhood—she was my island in a sea of change. She is my hero.

Ban the Band(乐队)？
Every year,our school has a dance for all the students.It’s a little funny seeing friends in clean shoes and trousers or colorful 36 ,instead of the usual school uniform.
Most of us think the dance is great 37 —even the teachers enjoy being there.38 ,two weeks ago someone said that there would be no 39 band this year—only CDs.
“I don’t 40 it!”Amy cried out during the lunch break.
“Someone said the school couldn’t 41a band,and they think it’s too noisy anyway,”added Daniel.
“Well,I don’t think it’s 42 enough without a band!”declared Angela,“and I’m going to see what can be done.”
Angela was as good as her 43 .In the afternoon she went to see the school headmaster who agreed to give the 44 some more thought.And he suggested that one 45 for having a band was to increase the price of each ticket from $5 to $10.Angela had to 46 out whether the students would like to do that.
“I need all of you to help me,”she 47 to our group before school the next day.“Mr.Berry gave me a list of all the names,and suggested we ask each one their 48 about the band and the extra cost.”
49 the day we asked around as Angela suggested,and wrote down people’s feelings about the band and the cost.We were amazed how much 50 there was for the band and everyone agreed to pay the extra $5.
“I’m surprised,”smiled Mr. Berry,when we gave him the 51 .“I really thought that only a few people 52 their band and that the cost would be too high.OK,Angela,your next 53 is to find a good band and line them up for the dance.”
Angela was all smiles and 54 the news to Amy and Daniel.“You’re 55 ,”smiled Daniel to Angela as he thought how close they came to having a less than perfect dance.
