The night of graduation, I was afraid. Two hundred people were sitting out there. I felt tense and I wanted to run away,
1 I couldn¡¯t! After all, my own children were sitting in front of me with many other persons. I couldn¡¯t be a coward(ų·ò) before
2 .
When I ended the speech, I was
3 at the cheering. And I never forget the first time I received the cheering in my life.
Flowers arrived
4 my brothers and sister. My husband gave me silk roses. The reporters came with
5 and recorders and lots of questions. There were tears and hugs and congratulations.
Sometimes, I sit down and
6 the tape of my graduation speech. I hear myself say to the audience, ¡°Don¡¯t¡¯ give up your
7 in life. Anything can happen if you believe. It means hard work, but
8 sure that you can do it, with God¡¯s help.¡±
And then, I remember mother¡¯s
9 to me , a young girl: ¡°Hurry, Gin, you¡¯ll be late for school.¡±
Yes, Mom, I was late
10 school, but it was sweeter for waiting. I only wish you and Dad could have been there to see your daughter and granddaughter in all their show and speech.
