完形填空School Counselors (辅导员) MatterOverwhelmed (压垮) by homework? Worried about a friend? Feel like you don't fit in? Sometimes it's impossible to 1 tough times alone. Problems can build up and you may suffer from insomnia (失眠), have difficulty concentrating, or even become depressed. It's time for you to talk to someone. Your school counselor can be a great place to start.A high school counselor who is a licensed professional offers a variety of 2 to high school students. He or she often provides advice and resources to students regarding their future college and 3 plans. A counselor may also help students who are 4 behavioral problems, family issues and stress. He or she often acts as a grief counselor to students in the event of an accident or other 5 situations. The job is quite demanding. 6 , high school counselors are often very knowledgeable about developmental and family psychology, and skilled at providing direct therapy for troubled individuals.Counselors meet with students individually or in small groups. Group meetings can really help people who are dealing with 7 issues. Not only do you get great ideas in a group setting, but it can also help to know that other students are experiencing the same thing and that they understand. How 8 you meet with your counselor depends on the issue. Some concerns are dealt with in a one-time meeting. Others require regular meetings for a while.School counselors are all about helping to make your school experience the best it can be. The role of the school counselor today is very 9 what it was like in the past. Instead of just focusing on schoolwork and careers, today's counselors are there for students in a broader way. They help students address almost any problem that might get in the way of learning, guide students to productive futures, and try to create a 10 environment for everyone at school.1.A.get off B.get through C.get in D.get to 2.A.services B.activities C.opportunities D.arguments 3.A.housing B.career C.training D.family 4.A.accustomed to B.sticking with C.committed to D.struggling with 5.A.unfamiliar B.unreasonable C.unforgettable D.unexpected 6.A.Otherwise B.However C.Therefore D.Rather7.A.difficult B.personal C.similar D.emergent 8.A.long B.soon C.much D.often 9.A.different from B.dependent on C.close to D.famous for 10.A.competitive B.positive C.social D.workingIt was 4 o'clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 11 in with severe burn on his face, neck and arms. We have called for a(n) 12 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.” Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 13 .The doctor described the 14 , which caused the burns. At 6 a.m., our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment. When they 15 the charcoal(木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much petrol. The flames 16 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to well over his head.17 , one of the boys was quick-minded, gasped my son, and 18 him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was in not enough 19 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars.After he 20 from the treatments, the doctors told him they would not do plastic surgery(整容) for 6 months 21 it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling. So, he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns.When I was a child, my mother told my sister who had a 10-inch very 22 scar on her arm, “Nancy, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It does not mean they will not23 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”I 24 this wisdom on to my son. He took my advice to 25 and returned to school with his head held high-glad he was alive. By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not 26 , so he made the 27 to give up any plastic surgery.We all have “scars” that we believe 28 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better. But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judgingyourself by these same 29 standards. Put your imperfections out of your mind and concentrate on what you value 30 yourself, and your beauty will shine through. 11.A.brought B.given C.turned D.showed 12.A.doctor B.hospital C.aircraft D.ambulance 13.A.serious B.terrible C.dangerous D.important 14.A.event B.process C.reason D.accident 15.A.got B.lit C.burned D.moved 16.A.took B.held C.caught D.attracted 17.A.Fortunately B.Surprisingly C.Happily D.Slowly 18.A.pushed B.threw C.dropped D.rolled 19.A.shape B.place C.fact D.time 20.A.benefited B.recovered C.suffered D.relaxed21.A.if B.while C.because D.although 22.A.normal B.violent C.obvious D.popular 23.A.mention B.notice C.laugh D.hide 24.A.sent B.kept C.handed D.passed 25.A.heart B.life C.practice D.considerate 26.A.grow B.matter C.exist D.appear 27.A.mistake B.effort C.decision D.request 28.A.invite B.cause C.allow D.remind 29.A.false B.strict C.moral D.general 30.A.by B.over C.beyond D.withinFrom Disappointment to PurposeI’m known for my determination. If I want something, I 31 for it; I refuse to give up 32 I succeed. Over the years this attitude has worked well for me and helped me achieve my goals. For example, when I wanted to be on the dance team at school, I learned all the dances and practiced until I could hardly 33 . And when I wanted money for a new computer, I washed cars, babysat, and walked dogs for all my neighbors.34 this year everything changed. I had set my sights on a summer 35 that I wasdetermined to get at the Water Zone, because the employees there could go on the water rides after their work and get free food at the snack bar. It was the 36 job to have on hot summer vacations. So just as I had achieved every goal in the past, I set out to 37 the job. I completed the application in my neatest handwriting, carefully prepared for my interview, and gathered a pack of 38 letters. I was certain that nothing could keep me from my dream job.But after my 39 , the manager of the Water Zone told me that he could hire only those with experience in water safety. I was 40 . I felt like a failure.On the last weekend before school ended, my teacher, Mrs. Keller, asked me 41 I would be interested in the kids’ summer day camp. I decided that I had nothing to 42 , so I called the manager and 43 an interview. She was 44 by my babysitting experience and employed me. In less than a week, I had completely 45 about wanting to work at the water park. Each time I comforted a little boy who missed his mother or a little girl who needed to help tying her shoes, I felt I was doing something 46 . I realized that I had discovered my life’s 47 : to work with children. I now have a new goal. I’m going to study to become an elementary school teacher.Sometimes in life we don’t get 48 what we want. Our dream guy or girl may not be interested in us. The coach may not select us for the team. A certain employer may not choose to hire us. It’s natural to feel 49 ; I sure did. But I also learned an important lesson. Occasionally, when we don’t get what we want, something even 50 is waiting for us around the corner!31.A.go B.apply C.cheer D.wait 32.A.when B.until C.since D.once 33.A.smile B.speak C.think D.move 34.A.Otherwise B.So C.But D.Therefore 35.A.day B.course C.job D.camp 36.A.perfect B.tough C.regular D.potential 37.A.land B.quit C.change D.keep 38.A.instruction B.application C.recommendation D.invitation 39.A.practice B.interview C.expectation D.experiment 40.A.promoted B.punished C.selected D.refusedthemselves to their task, and surrender to the journey.51.A.thoughts B.balance C.hands D.position 52.A.blamed B.interrupted C.frightened D.moved 53.A.found B.cheered C.dropped D.taught 54.A.abandoning B.raising C.shaking D.hiding 55.A.pride B.trust C.love D.fear 56.A.plan B.promise C.mistake D.difference 57.A.corrected B.repeated C.described D.discovered 58.A.driving B.fixing C.riding D.covering 59.A.slowly B.secretly C.helplessly D.frequently 60.A.heard B.shared C.wrote D.read 61.A.problems B.costs C.efforts D.choices 62.A.depending on B.replying to C.worrying about D.meeting with 63.A.money B.food C.time D.room 64.A.equipped B.supplied C.decorated D.filled65.A.set off B.broke down C.headed for D.held on 66.A.rest B.help C.understanding D.practice 67.A.volunteers B.members C.tourists D.reporters 68.A.purpose B.question C.decision D.lesson 69.A.introduced B.expected C.experienced D.examined 70.A.turn B.limit C.compare D.devoteThe structure in organizations has changed. It has transformed from a boss to a leader being at the top and from method directing to cooperation, 71 how many of us have actually made this 72 within ourselves?Let's not get personal about any person or connect this to any 73 organization. Consider the 74 pattern on a social media website such as LinkedIn. We often see good articles written by junior-level employees which 75 new enthusiasm and new perspectives, but how many senior-level 76 go and "Like" the article? Not 77 read it, but actually "Like” it. More often than not, the answer is none. Leaders read such articles, but they 78to press the "Like" button due to some fear!A friend of mine, who holds the 79 of Director of Human Resources in a reputed organization, happened to mention an article that his team member had written. I casually enquired 80 the absence of a "Like" or comment from him. His answer really 81 me! He said: "You know what my 82 is? I cannot be commenting or liking his article in public!" Amazed by this behavior, I did my research on this pattern on a few social media platforms. Yes, people want to “Like" or comment on articles and photos that are published by people with a(n)83 level and do so as well.While we are 84 the "Like" button on a junior-level employee's one — year anniversary, we jump to be one in a few hundreds to offer 85 on a senior-level leader's one — year completion. However, I think our precious “Like" for the employee 86 a lot and encourages him, while, on the other hand, it is 87 many hundreds and is not 88 noticed by the leader.Encourage new talents and 89 them. If we do not exhibit this socially, I am sure we will not 90 it in our job either.71.A.so B.otherwise C.yet D.while 72.A.organization B.method C.cooperation D.transformation 73.A.unusual B.ordinary C.common D.particular 74.A.behavioral B.online C.popular D.personal 75.A.oppose B.contain C.promote D.lack 76.A.leaders B.writers C.employers D.readers 77.A.precisely B.barely C.merely D.thoroughly 78.A.stop B.hope C.hesitate D.regret 79.A.name B.title C.faith D.honor80.A.for lack of B.on account of C.in need of D.with regard to 81.A.confused B.astonished C.dissatisfied D.annoyed 82.A.team B.level C.habit D.reputation 83.A.superior B.different C.average D.junior 84.A.pressing B.missing C.skipping D.considering 85.A.congratulations B.suggestions C.opinions D.remarks96.A.strong B.clever C.weak D.thick 97.A.small B.heavy C.full D.cheap 98.A.stood up B.went away C.gave up D.worked out 99.A.sad B.delighted C.annoyed D.excited 100.A.mind B.hope C.face D.weight 101.A.kept B.threw C.held D.caught 102.A.walking B.offering C.turning D.calling 103.A.stopped B.left C.removed D.arrived 104.A.rapidly B.silently C.suddenly D.carefully 105.A.jump B.climb C.enter D.run 106.A.build B.achieve C.complete D.search 107.A.slowly B.hardly C.easily D.successfully 108.A.success B.surprise C.tears D.anger 109.A.received B.saved C.contributed D.started 110.A.talked B.spoke C.wrote D.rememberedPam Bales,an experienced hiker,stepped onto snow-covered Jewell Trail. The hike up the lower part of Jewell was 111 . But less than an hour later,the weather was showing its teeth. Bales began to think about calling it a day. Then she noticed something: a single set of 112 in the snow ahead of her. She'd been 113 unclear tracks all day and hadn't given them much 114 ,because so many people climb Jewell Trail. But these,as a volunteer of the Valley Search and Rescue Team,she115 ,had been made by a pair of sneakers,which was surely not for this kind of trail. Strong wind screamed,and 116 was just hours away. If Bales continued to follow the tracks,she'd add 117 to the journey. But the tracks ahead meant someone might be in 118 She could not let this go. She silently scolded the absent hiker for 119 normal safety rules and struggled to walk carefully in the direction of the 120 .After about tracks to 30 yards,she rounded a corner and saw a man sitting motionless. He wore tennis sneakers and a light jacket. She checked him for any sign of 121 . There was none. Bales had been trained in search and rescue and knew that he was hypothermic (体温过低的)and would 122 soon if he didn't get out of there. The man said he had lost his way and was extremely 123 . Bales brought a pair of soft-shell pants,a winter hat,and a jacket from her pack. She helped the man 124 the warm,dry layers onto his body and offered him some hot cocoa. 125 he stood. She offered continuous encouragement—“ Keep going! You're doing great." Just before 6 p. m.,they arrived at the trailhead very 126 . Her climb up to the spot where she 127 the man had taken about four hours. Two hours had passed since then.A week later,the president of Bales' rescue group received a letter in the mail. It read:“ On Sunday October! 17,1 went up my trail,Jewell. 128 was to be bad. But without thinking too much I was dressed to go quickly. Next thing I knew this lady was talking to me,changing my clothes,making me warmer. She just kept 129 me. Finally,I learned her name was Pam. The entire time she treated me with compassion (同情心),confidence,and one hundred percent commitment..."In the nine years since she saved John,Bales has become something of a hiking legend (传奇人物).

This year, however, her parents announced a new 131 no phones allowed for the entire week. “No distractions,” they said. “But my friends will be 132 updates,” Madeline protested. “They’ll have to 133 ,” her mom said. “What if something bad happens?” Madeline changed her 134 Her mom shook her head as she opened a drawer. Madeline saw that her parents’ phones were already in it. Madeline had to 135 her phone in, too. The drive to the beach house took most of the day. That night after dinner, Madeline wandered into the kitchen, where her father was 136 dishes. “Still hungry?” he asked. “No,” she answered. Then she gave him a 137 look and said in her sweetest voice, “Couldn’t I have my phone back? Just so I can tell everyone what a(n) 138 time I’m having?” “Can’t,” he said. “It’s not here. Remember? 139 out the bookcase in the living room,” he suggested. “Might find something you like.” She walked into the living room and spotted a jigsaw puzzle (拼图玩具) on the bookcase. She took it, put the pieces on the table, and began to 140 them. After what seemed like minutes, she looked up. It was past ten o'clock. She had been 141 for almost two hours! The puzzle was less than half done. It would have been nice to 142 a picture of the puzzle with her friends, she thought. The next morning, a golden sun was rising over the blue ocean. The sky was cloudless. The scene 143 Madeline of a photo that Brandi had shared. Her friends had oohed and ahhed over it. This view was even better. It would leave everyone 144 Madeline’s hand 145 to the bedside table, but there was nothing there.That evening, Madeline lost herself in the jigsaw puzzle again. She felt a little excited every time the shapes 146 . Soon, all that were left were a few gaps. She quickly put the remaining pieces into place. The puzzle was 147 .She stepped back to 148 the finished puzzle. The picture showed an old painting ofseveral farmhands working in a brown field and there was a giant rainbow arching across the sky.Madeline enjoyed the puzzle for a few minutes, trying to 149 the image in her mind. Then, she quietly started taking it 150 .

It was the fifth day of a 6-day walk. The guide, who was waiting for them at the nearest camp, had 151 them about the slippery and potentially dangerous conditions. Colleen, an experienced adventurer from Sydney, was a naturally 152 walker. She walked in front of her husband and carefully checked the safety of the track when they were going down a steep slope (陡坡). Suddenly she heard a cracking sound from 153 .“When I realized what was happening, I was 154 to a deep ditch (沟壑), my pack on my back.” Colleen’s fall was only 155 by the presence of a branch that stretched across the ditch and 156 her from a fall that could otherwise have been deadly.Colleen hit her head badly and went into 157 . She soon woke up and turned around to see her husband sitting stunned on the side of the track. He had 158 fallen from the top. He had first slipped above Colleen, and his full weight, with his pack, 159 down on top of her. He was uninjured, and Colleen was suspended on the branch. He 160 out to grab Colleen’s arm. Colleen felt so 161 , the worst physical suffering she had ever felt in her life. She knew 162 that her arm was broken.Her husband took her pack along with his own and together they 163 for the final three kilometers to the camp. Once they reached the camp, the guide gave her first aid and called for the rescue helicopter immediately.Colleen was 164 to the nearest hospital by helicopter. She was 165 in the hospital and was told that her head and neck were okay, but her arm had been broken in four places.Later, Colleen 166 with emotion. “After this personal 167 of near-death and being saved, I realized that in some situations there’s absolutely no 168 to get to hospital, and the rescue helicopter was the only way. At that moment, the most 169 noise was hearing the helicopter come. The helicopter rescue workers were so generous, so highly skilled as well.

She realized she could also be stubborn when she felt ____9____, and that her negative connection to her father made her less trusting of other people in her life. “I never allowed myself to dive deeply into relationships.

But after my diagnosis with a brain cancer, I loved the idea of having something green and 21 around us.Last year, my friend Mitch gave me a lucky bamboo plant. Tending to the plant gave me a sense of 22 at a time when I sometimes felt useless because my ability to move was limited. As a physician, I was used to being the one who 23 care. Watering the plant 24 me to a core part of my old identity and taught me I could still be a caregiver.However, after several weeks growing in perfect condition, the plant 25 began to show signs of stress. No matter what I did, the leaves kept 26 and dropping to the floor.“I can’t even care for a simple plant!” I yelled. “If my lucky bamboo dies, I might die too!”Identifying with the green and growing plant had offered me comfort. But when the tree was struggling, I felt increasingly uneasy and 27 .It was several months later when I recovered from surgery that I realized I had wrongly linked my careful nurturing of the plant—something over which I had at least some control—with my own 28 —something over which I had no control.As my 29 lessened, I began to study online tutorials to figure out how to care for the tree. I transplanted it to a larger pot, and when it was back in the sunny window, we both began to thrive (旺盛) again.Now whenever I look at the tree in its new pot, I make a point to relax and think of the things I can 30 .21.A.alive B.primitive C.delicate D.mature 22.A.warmth B.relief C.achievement D.security 23.A.valued B.needed C.provided D.lacked 24.A.added B.connected C.adapted D.compared 25.A.casually B.interestingly C.genuinely D.mysteriously26.A.spreading B.browning C.waving D.dancing 27.A.fearful B.innocent C.faithful D.dishonest 28.A.dream B.success C.capability D.survival 29.A.discontent B.anxiety C.doubt D.sympathy 30.A.give B.share C.decide D.preserveOne of the best feelings is knowing that I have made a(n) 31 impact on another person’s life.During my freshman year, I got my first real job at Dunkin’ Donuts. I quickly became aware that customers’ 32 was important, so I tried to provide the best service that I could. I still remember one customer vividly, an elderly gentleman named Frank. He came in every Sunday afternoon and ordered a medium coffee with two old-fashioned donuts. Immediately after I saw him pull into the parking lot, I 33 his order, having it ready by the time he walked in. If I had no other work to do, I sat and talked with him. We learned a lot about each other. I could not help feeling sorry for him because his wife had recently passed away.After a year of working every weekend, I eventually decided to leave and turned in my two-week notice. The most difficult part of 34 was not telling my boss, but informing Frank. I felt like I was 35 him. When I finally brought it up, he 36 replied, “Oh, that’s too bad. I’m sure that the staff will miss you.” I began to think that our visits held no real importance to him, and that he would be just as 37 enjoying his food alone. 38 , on my last day, Frank came in with a card that simply read, “Your kindness during the time we have spent together is heartwarming. You had no 39 to speak a word to me, let alone show a real interest in our conversations. Few things have brought me more pleasure than our weekly visits. Thank you.”A amount of 40 I received for such minor efforts is mind-blowing. Giving up my weekends for a year was a small price to pay to grasp the remarkable effects of kindness. 31.A.obvious B.simple C.immediate D.positive 32.A.condition B.appearance C.satisfaction D.behavior 33.A.took B.prepared C.followed D.accepted 34.A.quitting B.agreeing C.remembering D.serving35.A.embarrassing B.ignoring C.cheating D.abandoning 36.A.firmly B.calmly C.angrily D.sadly 37.A.confident B.excited C.content D.interested 38.A.Meanwhile B.Therefore C.Moreover D.However 39.A.duty B.right C.excuse D.intention 40.A.admiration B.expectation C.appreciation D.instructionEveryone can do something for their community in their own way, just like what Damian has done. Every weekend, 41 with a chair and some tools, Damian sets up a stand in the neighborhood.The young man likes to offer free 42 to street vendors (摊贩) in the community and share nice conversations with them. One day, Pacheco, the ice cream vendor, went to the stand. Damien was very excited at the sight of this old friend, who 43 him of so many sweet memories of the past. The ice cream bar brought him a lot of 44 when he was a child. Now Damian can still remember those wonderful moments.When Damian was cutting Pacheco’s hair, he noticed that Pacheco was 45 this time. As they talked, Pacheco 46 his smile. In fact, he lost two teeth last month and was unwilling to smile 47 for fear of some of the comments his clients have made about his teeth. Pacheco had been living alone and had no intention of going to the 48 because he had never been there before.Learning of Pacheco’s current situation, Damian was determined to do something for him. After that, he was busy 49 Pacheco to the dental appointments. For three months, Damian drove Pacheco to the dentist and made sure that Pacheco could receive his much - needed artificial teeth.Now, Pacheco feels more 50 and doesn’t hesitate to give his new shining smile to the people in the community.

Please send me a letter in response.” In mid-November, Joyce wrote a letter to the local department of animal care and control with a(n) 51 request.Director Annabelle Bradshaw wrote back a few weeks later with good news. She said the department does in fact license unicorns under certain 52 . Those include polishing the unicorn’s horn (角) at least once a month, giving it 53 access to sunlight, moonlight and rainbows, and feeding it watermelons at least once a week.54 that Joyce would meet all the requirements, Bradshaw sent her a “preapproved unicorn license” for her future pet. “It is always55 to hear from young people who consider providing a loving home to animals.” Bradshaw wrote. She deals with a lot of “emotionally exhausting” issues on the job. So Joyce’s letter has 56 brightened her spirits. The first-grader also 57 her for wanting to ask permission in the first place, and doing her research to figure out how to go about that.Joyce’s mother didn’t want to 58 her when she asked for a unicorn at first, so advised it might come down to getting approval. Joyce agreed and she 59 and an hour later she came back and said, “Will you help me 60 this?”While the letter was received and replied to in a matter of weeks, Joyce thought the license would be a perfect present for her birthday this month.51.A.special B.urgent C.reasonable D.silly 52.A.structures B.conditions C.systems D.programs 53.A.regular B.similar C.fair D.instant 54.A.Upset B.Concerned C.Confident D.Surprised 55.A.useful B.rewarding C.necessary D.important56.A.normally B.gradually C.greatly D.carefully 57.A.impressed B.admired C.amused D.challenged 58.A.comfort B.punish C.excuse D.discourage 59.A.gave up B.fell over C.stood out D.marched off 60.A.test B.mail C.record D.downloadDave King is in his second winter of snowplowing (铲雪) people’s driveways for free.April Frazier is one person who has benefited from King’s kindness. She is a single mother. After one storm last year, she was busy looking after her kids and just knew she was not going to be able to get out there and 61 the snow.Frazier saw a post online in which King invited people to contact him if they needed help with that day’s storm. She 62 to him and offered to pay him, but he refused.Frazier was grateful — and has been 63 to see, with every storm since, King has reported to her house and plowed her driveway, never 64 a penny (一分钱). Now he also plows her parents’ driveway for free. And one time, he 65 plowed her parents’ neighbors’ driveways without anyone asking him. “He is loyal and 66 ,” said Frazier.King got the idea when he overheard a neighbor complaining she was having difficulty with the snow in her driveway. It occurred to King that he could plow the driveways of people in need for free.King went online and invited anyone who needed their driveways plowed to get in touch with him. People were 67 at first, as though he had some kind of dishonest plan going. But they were quick to find out he was 68 and started taking him up on his offer.King hopes to 69 this kindness and generosity and set up a whole network of volunteers to help people in need.“King is making a positive difference in the community,” Frazier said. “He is an unsung hero for this town.

We live in a 71 area up in the hills. Our driveway is barely wide enough for one car, with a ravine (深沟) on one side. While I was starting the car slowly, a flash of sunlight 72 me. I put my hand up to block the sunlight. Suddenly, the car slipped in the soft soil, and rolled down the ravine. After several rolls, we 73 upside down. I was stuck and felt a sharp pain in my chest. I looked over to find Honey. Luckily, she was okay.We were at least 50 feet down. Just as I’d 74 , my cellphone couldn’t get a signal.Calm down! It old myself. At least I could get Honey out of here. Painfully, I reached over and picked her up and 75 put her through a broken window. “Go home, baby.” She jumped to the ground and raced up the side of the ravine.I could do nothing but sit there for hours. The last bit of light faded away.Slam! Was that a car door? “Help!” I shouted with all my 76 .“Mike! Where are you?” It was Robin, my closest neighbor, who lived two miles downhill from me.Half an hour later, the rescue crew 77 and rushed me to the hospital.The next day Robin brought Honey to the hospital. She got right up next to me on the bed and snuggled (依偎) close.

There he could only be fed through a tube. I hated the tube. The lovely dreams I had of nursing my baby were entirely 81 .On the fifth day, I 82 about the tube, saying that I wanted to feed him with a bottle. The doctors agreed to let me try. My son’s feedings would be closely recorded to see if he was able to get 83 milk intake without the tube. After eighteen hours, it was determined he could not do that and the tube was back. This meant he wasn’t getting stronger. The 84 felt so dark.Seated outside the NICU, I started crying. Just then, a young nurse came and sat beside me. When I had 85 my sorrow a little, she handed me a tissue and asked if I wanted to talk. I asked again if we could remove the tube.The nurse replied, “Not today. But remember, tomorrow is a new day.”She seemed much younger than me, but her words were 86 and hope-filled, and I held on to them. I remembered her advice and repeated it to myself multiple times a day. The nurse changed my perspective away from current 87 to see the hope of tomorrow. Gradually, things started to 88 . On day eight, my son drank half of his milk without the tube. On day ten, the doctors approved taking off the tube 89 . “Tomorrow” came. It just came a few days later than expected.
