Several days ago, I came to London for a business meeting. My nephew Jordan is studying in Oxford University. Originally, I    1     (not see) him until the meeting was over. But he called to say he wanted to meet me as soon as possible. As a result, we met each other at a restaurant last night. Jordan told me that a big company     2     (offer) him a position as soon as he graduated, which surprised me a lot. I thought it     3     (give) a great surprise to his parents too. Jordan also told me that he    4     (take) part in the coming basketball match to be held in his university that weekend and invited me to watch it. I accepted his invitation happily and said I     5     (go) there to cheer him on.

3 . I grew up in the 1950s with very practical parents. My mother washed aluminum foil (铝箔纸) after she cooked in it, and then she reused it.She was the earliest recycle (回收利用) queen before people had a name for it.

My father was no different.He preferred getting old shoes fixed to buying new ones.Their marriage was good and their dreams were focused (集中).Their best friends lived just a wave away.Though my parents have passed away,I can see them now-Dad in trousers,a T-shirt and a hat and Mom in a house dress,lawnmower (割草机) in one hand and dishtowel in the other.

It was the time to fix things-a curtain rod (挂帘杆) the kitchen radio, the screen door, the oven door, and so on. They fixed all things we had.It was a way of life,and sometimes it made me crazy.All that re-fixing and renewing made me want to scream.I wanted just once to be wasteful.Waste meant being rich.Throwing things away meant you knew there’d always be more.I often thought like that.

But then my mother died,and on that clear summer night,in the warmth of the hospital room,I learnt that sometimes there isn’t any more.Sometimes,what we care about most gets all used up and goes away and it will never return. So, while we have it, it is the best that we love it,care for it,fix it when it’s broken and cure it when it’s sick.

This is true for marriage,old cars,children with bad report cards,dogs with bad hips and aging parents and grandparents.We keep them because they are worth it and because we are worth it.
