Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches (沟渠)along the highway. I travel daily to work. There is one particular    26    flower that has    27   caught my eyes. I’ve noticed it blooms only in the morning hours; the    28    sun is too warm for it. Every day for about two weeks. I see those beautiful    29   .
This spring I    30   a wildflower garden in our yard. “I can look out of the   31   window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I’ve often thought those lovely blue flowers from the   32  would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Everyday I    33  past the flowers thinking, I’ll stop on my way home and    34   them.” “gee (哎呀), I don’t want to get my good clothes dirty…” whatever the reason, I    35  stopped to dig them.
One day on my way home from work in my car, I was    36    to see the highway department had moved the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were    37  . I thought to myself, “You    38    too long. You should have done it when you first saw them  39   this spring. ”
A week ago, we were shocked and saddened to learn my older sister-in-law had a terminal brain tumor (肿块). She is 10 years    40   than my husband and unfortunately, because of age and distance. We haven’t been as    41   as we all would have liked. I couldn’t help but see the   42     between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband’s    43  and us. I do believe god has given us some time left to    44  some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us.
And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, I’ll    45   and transplant them to my wildflower garden.

Four Simple Keys to Transform Your Life
The Power of Choice.Every one of us makes countless choices every day.Every choice we make has an impact on our lives.Even insignificant choices can affect what we experience and how we feel.When hunger strikes, we can reach for a healthy, nutritious snack, or we can choose the sugar high of junk food.The more important the decision, the greater its effect.For instance, how do I act towards that person who treated me badly? Do I generally choose to be passive, or do I actively set clear intentions and create what I want in my life? Every choice we make, however big or small, affects us in some way.
How Do You Make Choices? If you are interested in living a richer, fuller life, there is a foundation upon which you can base all of your decisions which can make life better not only for you, but also for those around you.This foundation is to choose based on what"s best for all.Imagine a world where every parent, spouse(配偶), friend, teacher, business person, and politician truly did their best to choose what"s best for all involved in every decision they made. We would certainly live in a more caring, supportive world.
It"s the Intention."But how do I know what is really best?" you might ask.The answer is simple.It doesn"t matter.What matters is not the choice you make, but rather the intention beind your choice.What matters is that whatever decision you make, you are clear in your intention of choosing based on what"s best for all.If it later turns out that you made what appears to have been a bad choice, there"s no need for guilt.Knowing that you did your best to choose with a sincere desire for what"s best for all, your conscience stays clear and open.This then allows you to more easily learn from your mistakes, and to live with a clear heart and mind.
What"s Best for Me, Too! Choosing what"s best does not mean you have to always sacrifice yourself for others.An overly(过度的) exhausted mother can lose her temper easily.Some time off for this mother might seem selfish, yet in the long run, it can help her to be a better mother to her children.So as we move through each day of our lives, let us remember to include ourselves as we do our best to choose what"s best for all.
小题1:Which of the following is FALSE?
A.Whenever hunger strikes, we will reach for a junk snack
B.Every choice, however big or small, has an influence on us.
C.Even small choices affect how we feel..
D.We make choices every day.
小题2:How should we make choices?
A.To be interested in a richer, fuller life.
B.To make life better for ourselves.
C.To imagine a world where everyone did their best.
D.To choose based on what"s best for all.
小题3:Why does the author say, "What matters is not the choice you make, but rather the intention behind your choice."?
A.Because the choice you make is not important.
B.Because you may have made a bad choice.
C.Because this allows you to stay clear and improve.
D.Because there is no need for guilt.
小题4:How to choose what is best for us?
A.We need to devote all our life to others.
B.We need to put away some time for ourselves.
C.We need to sacrifice ourselves for others.
D.We need to be selfless every minute.

What makes a gift special? Is it the price you see on the gift receipt?Or is it the look on the recipient"s face when they receive it that determines the true value? What gift is worth the most?
This Christmas I was debating what to give my father. My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming, and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, a lone dandelion (蒲公英) standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me. My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid. That may even be the reason why I love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.
I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe;my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood, I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate. Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dad’s face as he unwrapped those black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.
