When I was thirteen, my family moved from Boston to Tucson, Arizona.
36
the move, my father
37
us in the living-room on a freezing January night. My sisters and I sat around the fire, not
38
that the universe would suddenly change its course. "In May, we're
39
to Arizona."
The words, so small, didn't seem
40
enough to hold my new life. But the world changed and I awoke on a tram moving across the country. I watched the
41_
change from green trees to flat dusty plains to high mountains as I saw strange new plants that
42
mysteries(奥秘) yet to come. Finally, we arrived and
43
into own new home.
44
my older sisters were sad at the loss of friends, I
45
explored(探索) our
new surroundings.
One afternoon, I was out exploring
46
and saw a new kind of cactus(仙人掌). I crouched (蹲) down for a closer look. "You'd better not
47
that."
I turned around to see an old woman
"Are you new lo this neighborhood?" I explained that I was,
48 , new to the entire state.
"My name is Ina Thorne. Have you got used to life in the
49 ? It must be quite a
_50
after living in Boston."
How could I explain how I
51
the desert? I couldn't seem to find the right words.
"It's vastness," she offered. “That vastness
52
you stand on the mountains overlooking the desert -- you can
53
how little you are in comparison with the world.
_54 , you feel that the possibilities are limitless.”
That was it. That was the feeling I'd bad ever since I'd first seen the mountains of my new home. Again, my
55
would change with just a few simple words.
"Would you like to come to my home tomorrow? Someone should teach you which plant you should and shouldn't touch."
