“BANG！” the door caused a reverberation （回声）. I was just standing there， with father standing on one side， and I on 1 side.

We were both in great anger. “Never

2 foot in this house again！” stormed father. With tears in my eyes， I 3 out of the flat and ran along the street.

A young father 4 held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my 5 from another space： happy and carefree.

But now ... I dont know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We are different in the ways of

6 . He always puts his opinions on me. We are just like two people from two different worlds. It feels like there is a door 7 us that can never be opened.

I wandered the streets， without knowing where to go. My heart was 8 on this hot summer night. As I walked on there were fewer and fewer people in the streets， until I had only the street lights to keep me 9 . When I finally reached where I lived， I saw that the light was 10 on.

All the lights were 11 except fathers.

Dad was always like this. Maybe he didnt know how to express himself. But I know， 12 shouting at me or an argument， he will see me quietly in my 13 and then tuck me in the quilt.

The light was still on. “Am I wrong？” I whispered， maybe ... With the 14 in hand， I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last， I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door， tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the door that I had 15 between us did not exist at all. Love—it was second to none.

My attitude towards Mrs. White， my English teacher， began to change after one afternoon. It was raining heavily and I didnt go to her lecture. Then after school was over， I received a call. “Are you all right？” said someone in a quiet voice. Immediately I recognized that it was Mrs. White， I became nervous and prepared to excuse myself for my absence from school. “Yes？” I replied， voice trembling.

She continued， “You see， it was raining cats and dogs. I was doubting that an accident might have happened on your way to school. Well， if you are OK ...” On hearing her words， I was surprised and my heart was flooded with mixed feelings. She was showing her concern for me even though I had not been nice to her！Why？ Was she just acting？ Or should I stick to the past misunderstanding？

I had never considered how to respect and understand her before. I once doubted the answer she gave to a question， and even asked， “Are you sure？ Have you asked other teachers about it？” How embarrassing that must have been for her！ Still she explained the point patiently.

Also， I believed that I could do well in English without a good teacher， which drove me to work like a dog. Since I was getting on well with it， I became conceited （自负的）. But it was her who made me less dependent on teachers.

The more I reflected， the guiltier I felt. If she could see my past faults， then why couldnt I try to accept hers？ If a teacher really cares about her students and work， that is enough.

Now， I am present in class again and I grab （抓住） any chance to practice. It was her tolerance （宽容） that removed all the misunderstandings.

Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida， a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house.

To dive into the cool water， he ran out of the back door， leaving behind shoes， socks， and shirt as he went. He flew into the water， not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake， an alligator was swimming toward the shore. His mother， who was in the house， was looking out of the window—saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In utter fear， she ran toward the water， crying to her son as loudly as she could.

Hearing her voice， the little boy realized the danger and returned to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her， the alligator reached him.

The mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs. The alligator was much stronger than the mother， but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by， heard her screams， raced from his truck and shot the alligator.

Luckily， after weeks and weeks in the hospital， the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the attack of the animal and， on his arms， were deep scratches（抓痕） where his mothers fingernails dug into his flesh （肉）.

When someone asked the boy if he could show his scars （疤痕）， with obvious pride， he said， “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms， too. I have them because my mom wouldnt let go.”

You and I may have scars， too. Some of those scars， seen or unseen， are painful and ugly. But some scars， my friend， are because God has refused to let go. In the midst of your struggle （挣扎）， hes been there holding on to you.

（ ）27. We can infer from the passage that _______.
