“This Friday we'll have the yearly Egg Drop Challenge,” said our science teacher, Mr. Baker. “You can work alone or with a partner.”
My friend, Cassie, and I smiled at each other. We always worked on projects   36 .
The   37  of the challenge was simple—to build a protective container to keep an egg from breaking when   38  the stadium wall.
I made my sandwich that afternoon while waiting for Cassie.   39   the butter-cream gave me an idea.
“I have a brilliant design for our   40  container!” I said when Cassie arrived. “We can 41 the egg with some butter-cream.”
“Why not put the egg in a basket with a parachute   42 ?” Cassie rolled her eyes. “The parachute is better than that stupid idea.”
I couldn't believe it. Of course we'd had our little   43  in the past, but she'd never called any of my ideas “  44  ” before.
“Then I’ll build mine and you build yours!”
  45  words had been out, our friendship was challenged.
When Friday finally arrived, I had to   46   Cassie’s Egg Force One looked pretty good. 47, my Egg-cellent Egg Cream didn't look quite scientific. We kids carried our containers up three stadium steps and dropped them over the side wall. Those whose eggs broke were out; those whose eggs survived   48  three more steps and dropped them again. This would go on till the last egg broke.
After four rounds, only Cassie and I were   49 . I let go of my box. I heard someone say “ew” after seconds. Had my egg broken? I raced down the   50 . The sidewalk was dotted with egg shells(蛋殼) from those   51  drops. Finally I found my little Egg-cellent Egg Cream.
“That looks like egg drop soup, Laura,” Cassie said. She was holding her Egg Force One. My 52  raced. Had she won? I looked at her basket.   53 .
“My egg bounced (彈起)   54 ,” she explained, pointing to a broken shell.
“A tie（平局）,” Mr. Baker said.
Cassie looked at me, and her glare（瞪眼） 55 . I laughed. She smiled…

My husband hasn’t stopped laughing about the thing that happened to me. It’s  16  now but it wasn’t that time.
Last Friday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I  17  a rest before catching the train, so I bought a   18  and some chocolate and went to the station coffee shop that was a cheap, self-service place with long   19 to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to   20  a place and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the   21   seat. It was one of those   22  young man, with dark glasses and torn clothes, and hair colored bright 23  at the front, not so unusual these days. What did   24  me was he’d started to eat my chocolate! Naturally, I was annoyed. However, to avoid trouble—then really I was rather uneasy about him—I just   25  down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee, and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me    26   . then he took another piece of my chocolate. I could hardly   27  it. Still I didn’t want to start an argument. When he took a  28    piece , I felt more  29  than annoyed. I thought, “ Well, I shall have the last piece.” And I  30  it.
The boy gave me a   31  look, and then stood up. As he left, he shouted out, “This woman is mad!” Everyone   32  . That really made me feel silly, but it was   33   when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave. My face went red—as red as his hair when I   34    I’d made a mistake. It wasn’t my chocolate he’d been taking. There was mine, unopened, just under my  35   .

I was walking down the road one day when my cellphone rang. I heard a little girl on the other end 36 ,“Dad, please come back soon. I miss you so much!” Because I just have a little 37 , I knew it was a wrong number. So I rudely 38 “you’ve dialed the wrong number!”and then 39 .

Mom said you were too busy to take 43  of me. But, Dad ,please 44  me again, OK?” The kind of 45  was difficult to reject. I made a loud kiss on the phone and heard the 46  voice say, “Thank you … Dad , I am so … happy…”
Shortly after this, I became 47  about who had been on the other end of my phone. So I called back, and a woman answered, “Sorry, sir. I am really sorry to have 48  you. My daughter has suffered from bone cancer 49  she was born. And her father … died in a(n) 50  last week. I 51  not tell her the news. Poor  baby.

“How is your daughter now?” I couldn’t 54  to ask.
“She has 55 . You must have kissed her on the phone, because she went with a smile,” she said, “and I am glad that she gets rid of the pain and stays with her father forever.”
I couldn’t keep my tears back.
