Filled with sorrow, I didn’t notice the hardness of the chair I was sitting on. I was at the funeral
of my
16
. The hurt was so intense, and I found it hard to
17
at times.
Suddenly,
I
heard
a
18
open
and
slam
shut
at
the
back
of
the
church.
Quick
19
hurried along the floor. A young man looked around in a
20
and then sat next to me. His eyes
were full of tears.
“I’m
21
,” he explained, though no explanation was
22
. After several eulogies (
悼文
),
he
leaned
over
and
commented,
“Why
do
they
keep
23
Mary
by
the
name
of
‘Margaret’?”
“Because that was her name, Margaret. Never Mary,” I
24
. “No, that isn’t correct,” he insisted.
“Her
name
is
Mary,
Mary
Peters.”
“That
isn’t
25
this
is,”
I
replied.
“Isn’t
this
the
Lutheran
church?” “No, the Lutheran church is across the street. I believe you’re at the
26
funeral, sir.”
The
solemnness
(
庄严
)
of
the
occasion
27
with
the
realization
of
the
man’s
mistake
bubbled (
充溢
) up inside me and came out as
28
. I peeked at the misguided man seated beside
me. He was laughing,
29
. I imagined Mother laughing. At the
30
“Aman”, we darted out
a door and into the parking lot.
“I do believe we’ll be the
31
of the town,” he smiled. He
said his name was Rick and that
32
he had missed his aunt’s funeral, he asked me out for a cup of coffee. That afternoon began a
lifelong
33
for me with this man who attended the wrong funeral. A year after our meeting, we
were
34
at a country church. This time we both arrived at the same church, right on time.
Whenever anyone asks us how we
35
, Rick tells them, “Her mother and my aunt Mary
introduced us.”

I had the meanest mother in the world
．
While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have
cereal
（麦片粥）
,
eggs
and
toast
．
Others had
cokes
and
candy
for
lunch,
while
we
had
to
eat a
sandwich

As you can guess, my supper was different than the other kids'

alone in my suffering

My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did

My mother insisted on knowing where we were at all times
．
She had to know who our friends
were and what we were doing

Other kids always wore their
clothes for days
．
We reached the height of disgrace
（
丢脸）
because she made our clothes herself, just
to save money

The
worst
is
yet
to
come

We
had
to
be
in
bed
by
9:00

night
and
up
at
7:45

next
morning

while
my
friends
slept,
my
mother
actually
had
the
courage
to
break
Child
Labor
Law

She
made
us
work

I
believed
she
lay
awake
all
night
thinking
up
mean
things
to
do
to
us
．
Through the years, our friends' report cards had beautiful colors on them, black for passing, red
- 4 -
- 5 -
for
failing
．
My
mother,
however,
would
merely
be
content
with
black
marks
．
None
of
us
was
allowed the pleasure of being a dropout
．
She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults
．
Using this as a background, I'm now
trying to bring up my three children
．
I'm filled with pride when my children think I am mean because
now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the world

Elephants scored a big win in 2010. Representatives from 175 countries at the United Nations’
Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) in Doha, Qatar, rejected a bid
to allow the sale of ivory. Two African nations, Tanzania and Zambia, had asked to open the ivory
trade.
Conservationists
feared
that
weakening
a
21-year-old
ban
on
the
sale
of
ivory
would
have
encouraged illegal hunting and hurt elephant populations. African elephants once numbered in the
millions. Today, there are fewer than 500,000.

born
in
100
years
should
be
able
to
see
an
elephant,
