Frank used to live with his mother. They were poor and could just meet their living needs. His mother had only one eye and because of that, Frank used to see her 1 a shame (耻辱) . One day when his mother went to his school, everyone in school laughed at him. 

Because of this, Frank started to hate his mother and he didn't want to live with her. So he decided that he would study really hard and would leave his mother. Frank 2 his studies with good grades and landed a good job in another city. He left his mother, bought a big house, got married and had kids. He was living a happy and 3 life. 

One day his mother came to see him. When his kids saw her, they felt scared and went to him. When he came to see who was at their door he found that it was his mother. Seeing her, he said, " 4 " Mother understood that her son didn't want to see her and quietly answered, "Oh, I am so sorry. I may get to the wrong 5 . " Then she left.

My dear son,

I won't be able to visit you anymore. But would it be too much to ask8 I wanted you to come visit me once in a while after my death? I'm sorry for being your shame. You see, when you were very little, you got into an accident and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn't stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye so I gave you 9 . I was so proud of you because you were seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that 10 . I was never upset at you for anything you did.

I love you.
