Jane’s mother worked on the farm from morning
till dark, supporting the family. To make Jane live a happy life, Mother was
very 26 about spending money. 27 , Jane
didn’t understand her. Every day Mother was busy with her work while Jane was
studying at school, so they had 28 time to enjoy
themselves.
One day, Mother realized Jane was unhappy and
even unfriendly to her, so she decided to go 29 with
Jane to make Jane happy.
On Sunday morning they went happily to the
snowfield. Since they were both in white clothes, the manager 30 them
to buy ski clothes. He said 31 there was an accident, they
might be easily found in their ski clothes. Mother couldn’t 32 them,
so she refused.
Then they went skiing in their white clothes.
They were skiing 33 on the snowfield when suddenly
the snowfield began to shake. It was the snow slide(雪崩). They ran a long way and escaped
the snow slide finally, but they couldn’t find their 34 .
Later, a helicopter was flying 35 , but people on it
couldn’t see or hear them. Jane was in danger because she had hurt her head
seriously and blood(血) dropped on the snow. Just then
Mother 36 an idea. She 37 her hand
at once and then bright red blood dropped down on the snowfield. A red SOS was
on the snow. 38 Jane was saved, but Mother died.
Every time I think of the blood dropping onto
the snowfield, I feel 39 . I believe anyone 40 hears
the sad story will admire（欽佩）Mother
for her selfless(無(wú)私的) love to her daughter.
