| The lady with the white fence (篱笆) taught me to leave the gale to life open... My husband died in an accident and I became very angry. I hated being alone. One day, as I was 1 down a busy street, I suddenly noticed a new fence around a house. I pulled off to really watch it. It was such a good 2 that I was deeply touched. I could not send 3 away. The fence still smelled of fresh paint. "Hello!" I came up and said to a lady in the back garden,"I came to see the fence. It's so beautiful!" "Oh! The fence is not there for me," the lady explained to me in a calm voice,"I live alone. 4 so many people pass by every day, and I think they may be pleased to see something really attractive. 5 stop like you and come up to have a chat." "But weren't you sad when they expanded (拓宽) the road and everything changed so much?" "Change is part of life and takes part in 6 us who we are. When something we do not like happens to us, we have two choices-to become a 7 person or to become a better person." Her reply changed my life. I carefully left the gate open and drove on 8 a new feeling inside me. I could not tell 9 it was, but I could feel the thick stone wall around my angry heart breaking off. And 10 a pretty white fence was built. I decided that I would keep the gate open for everything and everyone that came my way. | ||||
