When my daughter, Sophie, was admitted to a college we were very happy, but a little worried about becoming empty nesters(空巢老人). I knew I had to do something, starting with the summer before she was away from home.
Sophie had a pack of colourful blouses. I knew she wouldn't wear them anymore, so I decided to make a quilt(被子) out of them. I tried to work on the quilt when Sophie 1 – which turned out to be often. She was very busy with her friends. Even when she was at home, her door was shut more than usual. This made me feel a bit hurt.2 we didn't have much time together before she went to college.
When we arrived at the college, a wave of emotion flooded me. Sophie saw it in my face. She took a beautiful 3 from her bag. "I made this for you, Mom," she said. Then I knew why she had been staying behind a 4door that summer. It was an album of photographs recording the life of our family over the last 17 years.
I broke into tears. Some of it was sadness at having to let her go, but some of it was 5I knew that our connection was more 6 than ever as we would always be connected by the strongest link, the love that went into every stitch(针脚) of her quilt and every photo in my album.
In Sophie's dormitory room I unfolded the quilt on her bed. For a moment she was speechless. Then she threw her arms around me. "Mom, I love you," she said. One of her new friends was calling her outside. Sophie turned, and I let her go.

When children play games, they don't need a referee(裁判). They have their own rules in playing games. They seldom find it necessary to keep scores because they don't worry about who wins or loses. They even don't c if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their aare not so important. They also enjoy games that move in stages in which they choose leaders and pick up sides.
Grown-ups rfind children's games exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for some important r. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a upartner to someone who is more popular in real life. When it is his turn to be the leader, everyone follows his orders. This makes him feel more c.
It seems that when children play a game, they ia situation under their control. Unlike real life, in this situation they make the rules themselves, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.
Donna Reid had just finished her training as a children's doctor. A famous research hospital in New York had offered her a job with good pay. And her boyfriend, Tony, had a clinic in their hometown and hoped she could work with him. At the same time, a small hospital, Backwoods Hospital, in a very poor area had also offered Donna a position. Now it was time for her to decide where to work.
Dad: Donna, that research hospital in New York has a good reputation for children's medicine. Some of the best children's doctors in the country work there and you can learn a lot from them.
Mom: Yes, I agree it's a good hospital and the pay is good, too. But, that's not the point.
Dad: Then what's the point?
Mom: It's in New York, too far away! Let me tell you what, dear Donna. Tony's clinic is just several blocks away. You don't need to travel far if you work there. Tony is a nice young man and I guess you'll get married soon.
Dad: Ha! It's hard enough to live with a husband or wife. Working with them, too? That's a choice for trouble. Well, Donna, what do you think?
Donna: I'm thinking about accepting the offer from Backwoods Hospital.
Dad: But Donna, look at their offer! You'll be on call six days a week, 24 hours a day. That's really a hard job.
Mom: Oh, Donna, the pay is another problem.
Donna: It isn't a dead-end job, Mom and Dad. But anyway, I didn't __.
Dad: No? Then why did you become a doctor?
Donna: I want to help people. You know that. And Backwoods serves a very poor and needy population. Backwoods, here I come!
