语法填空
Just several days ago,
a violent storm hit our community. I looked out of the window and witnessed a tree
being abused by the fierce winds. The branches bent, and swayed (摇摆) back and forth, thanks to their1to
avoid breaking. The leaves desperately stuck to the branches because their life2the
tree. The powerful trunk that held the tree upright bent slightly backwards from
the force in a battle to3its position.
After the storm passed,
the tree gracefully returned to its4position standing tall in chaos. It managed
to5the storm. It didn't look the same as leaves
had been shed from its branches, but what6was that the tree won the fight
for its life. For a long time I couldn't understand why this tree7my
attention the way it did. As time passed, it became8that
it wasn't just about the tree but about the roots, which, although unseen, went
deep into the soil providing stability and nutrition. The roots allowed the tree
to be able to take a9because they were there to support it.
I can't but ask myself
how deep the roots are in my life. Accordingly, the next time you catch your kids10,
the job is driving you crazy, you are underpaid and the11is
tight, and the storms of life are heavy, go back to your roots. Life is full of12.
They will make you sway, make you13and make you lose some leaves. But the deeper
your roots are, the stronger you stand.
Faced with14you
might bend but don't get depressed. No matter how hard the wind blows don't let
life15you into an uncomfortable position. Your
strength lies in your roots.
