Working from Home
My family recently had the bright idea that I should spend a day working from home. When I mapped out such a day,

Evenings with Dad
Some of my earliest memories involved sitting with my dad in his study every night when he came home. I’d watch
as he put his personal items away. His watch, wallet and 19 would always occupy(占据) the same spot on
the table as if there were lines drawn specifically for them.
He bought the comb when he married Mom. Every night, he would smile and 20 me his comb, “Be a
comb
good girl and help Daddy clean it, OK?”
At age five, this simple task brought me such joy. I would excitedly brush the comb with a used
toothbrush. Satisfied that I’d done a good job, I would 21 return the comb to Dad. He would smile at me, and place it
on top of his wallet.
About two years later, Dad left his sales job and started his own business. That was when things started to 22 .
Dad’s business wasn’t doing so well, and he didn’t come home often. And when he did come home, it was always late. I
started to get mad. Why take the risk and place the family in trouble? Over the years, I 23 going downstairs to check
on him when he was back.
Now 28, I’ve got a job and Dad’s business has done better. Yet the uncomfortable silence between Dad and me
stayed.
Last Thursday, Dad came home early. I helped him carry his bags into his study. When I turned to leave, he said,
“Hey, can you help me clean my comb?” I looked at him a while, then took the comb to the sink. It 24 me then: why,

as a child, helping my dad clean his comb was such a happy thing. That meant my dad was home early to spend the
evenings with Mum and me. It meant a happy and loving family.
I passed the clean comb back to Dad. He smiled and carefully placed his comb on top of his wallet. His smile was
still as heartwarming as before, the smile of a father who just wants a good life for his family. After so many years, I’m
glad some things never change.

My First Marathon(马拉松)
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was hurt and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me
only two weeks to train. Yet, I decided to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. After my first P.E. class, the teacher told me that I was “not athletic”. The
idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a fight
against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the fight against my own body and
mind. A test of wills!
