Once upon a time , there was a child ready to be born. So    16   he asked God, “They tell me you are sending to    17  , but being so small and helpless,    18   am I going to live there?”

“   19    the many angels(天使), I chose the best one for you. She will be waiting for you and will take care of you. ” God replied.

 “But here in heaven(天堂), I do    20     else but sing and smile! That’s enough for me to be happy.”

God said, “Your angel will sing and smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel’s love and you’ll be   21  .”

The child said, “And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me   22    I don’t know the language that men speak?”

God told the child, “ Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweetest words you will ever hear, and with     23    patience(耐心) and care, your angel will teach you   24   .

The child said, “I’ve    25    that on the earth there are bad men, who will protect me?”

God said, “Your angel will protect you  26   it means risking her life(冒生命危險).”

“But I will always be sad because I will not see you any more.”

“Your angel will always talk to you about    27   and in face, I will always be next to you.”

“It is not hard to remember,” God replied    30  . “You will call your angel Mommy.”

Dear Mom and Dad,
I will go to Alice’s home with her after school, and I will have supper and sleep there. Don’t    21   about me. You know that Alice is one of my    22  friends. If you want to talk with me, you can    23   68610598 after 6:00 pm.
Please forgive me for not telling you first. I don’t think you will    24 me to do so if I tell you first.   25  I think teenagers should be allowed to stay at their friends’ houses sometimes. I am sixteen years old and I’m not a little kid    26 . I hope I can make decisions for    27  .
At home, there are too many   28  for me to obey: Don’t stay out so    29  ; don’t have meals before    30   hands; don’t watch TV without finishing homework, etc. Parents should be    31   teenagers, but we need freedom, too.
I don’t like doing my homework    32   at home. I’d love to study    33   Alice. We can learn a lot from each other.    34   please allow me to stay at Alice’s house once a week. If you    35  , Alice can stay at our house with me, too.
Yours,
Lillian
