Coming home from school that dark winter day so long ago, I was filled with excitement of having the weekend off. But I was  41  into stillness by what I saw. Mother was seated at the far end of the sofa,  42 , with the second-hand green typewriter on the table. She told me that she couldn’t type fast and then she was out of work. My shock and embarrassment(尷尬) at finding mother in tears was a perfect proof of how  43  I understood the pressures on her. Sitting beside her on the sofa. I began very  44  to understand. “I guess we all have to  45  sometimes.” Mother said quietly. I could  46  her pain and the tension(緊張) of  47  the strong feelings that were interrupted by my arrival. Suddenly, something inside me  48 . I reached out and put my arms around her. She broke then. She put her face  49  my shoulder and sobbed(啜泣). I held her  50  and didn’t try to talk. I knew I was doing what I should. What I could  51  it was enough. In that moment, feeling mother’s  52  with feelings, I understood for the first time, her being so easy to  53 . She was still my mother,  54  she was something  55 , a person having the ability of bearing fear,  56  and failure. I could feel her pain as she must have felt mine on a thousand occasions when I sought  57  in her arms.

A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station  58 . “It’s a job I can do, though,” she said simply. But the evening practice on the old green typewriter continued. I had a very  59  feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her tapping  60  across the paper. I knew there was something more going on in there than a woman learning to type.
