阅读理解 My daughter(now 18)was born with a tumor(肿瘤)on her eyelid.At first it was small, and hardly noticeable.After five months, it was about the same size as a coin.Every time I took her out, people could not help commenting, “Who hit her?”, “Is that a mosquito bite?” and so on.I could never think of a proper response to these people's comments.I was taught to be kind and understanding, and thought that other people had been taught these attributes(特性)too.One day I was in a shopping center with my daughter.A woman approached me. She said that God must not have wanted my daughter to leave him, as He left her with a kiss.She went on to say that babies with these kisses were always surrounded by angels.I was shocked.What a kinder, more loving approach to someone with a problem! My daughter will graduate this year from high school.She is beautiful.Her early years were spent in and out of hospital.Finally the tumor was removed.It is not noticeable except in the bright sun.She danced for 4 years on the dance team.She had received many scholarships(奖学金).Her life is wonderful.The woman in the shopping centre made me a better parent.Perhaps, this story will help make someone else a better parent, too. |
