It was Mother’s Day. Sun Zheng thought he should do something for hismother. He decided to help his mother do some housework. After school he went toa shop to buy some food on his way home.
When he got home, he did his best to cook some nice food,though he couldn’tdo the cooking well. Thenhe cleaned the room. He felt very tired, but he wasvery happy.
When his father and his mother came back and saw the clean rooms and disheswhich weren’t so nice, they were very happy.They had their supper together. Hismother said, "Thank you,my child!"
Mom,I love you! Mothers are great. They’re always there for you. Whenyou’re hungry, they’re there for you with food. When you’re sad, they’re therefor you with words of encouragement.
And when you’re lying comfortably in your bed, mother is there...tellingyou to get up,telling you not to be so lazy, to tidy your room, to do yourhomework. And later, she’s there telling you that the style of clothes you wearis awful, and your friends are no good, and “Why can’t you be more like yourcousin, the brilliant student?”
Yes, mothers are great, sometimes too great. No one in your life is goingto know more about you and care more about you than your mother. In many ways,mothers are the centres of their children’s universe. We depend on them for somany things and theygive us so much. That can lead to feelings of being“smothered” by mother; of being too dependent on her; of being loved too much.And sometimes we just take “good old”mom for granted. We think she has nothingbetter to do than take care of our every little need. That she must stopwhatever she’s doing and bring us food or sew on a button.
My mother is sixty-three years old, and for the last forty year she hasbeen the village doctor. She has a small clinic that she prepares medicine andtreats small injuries,and also sells canned powder milk.
Our house has people in and out at all hours of the day and night.
The villagers always like to come to her clinic to see the doctor and tomeet their neighbors, too.
Almost all the villagers come to my mother when their baby is due. Mymother is very good at predicting the day the baby will come.
Sometimes my mother will not get enough sleep if the babies come late atnight or early in the morning.
There are special rooms for the mother and baby, and usually they stay atthe doctor's house about twenty-four hours.
We always like to see the new babies get their first bath because they lookso red and small.
All the village people know and trust my mother because she is such aquiet, kind,and experienced friend of theirs.
