As the hot tears rolled down her cheeks, I knew I had asked the wrong question. The 21 reverberated(回荡)in my mind: Widowed or divorced? I looked into the lady’s 22 , now dampened （使潮湿）with the 23 tears my words had caused.
“ Well, you could call me widowed,” she replied. “ My husband 24 five months ago .”
“ I am so 25 ,” I mumbled. “ I need it to fill out your credit application.”
“Don’t worry about it, honey,” she 26 . “if I never thought about it, I would not 27 the love and the memories we shared. Even after 50 years of 28 ,each passing moment would bring a deeper meaning to the word love. Now, trust me, I know how 29 that sounds. We had our share of challenging times, but in the end 30 of that mattered.”
Unsure of what to say, I laughed 31 . I picked up the phone to relay her information. After finally pleting the credit application, I _ 32 to find myself riveted（固定） to the lady’s face again.
Her eyes began to sparkle 33 she continued in a heart-to-heart way. I couldn’t believe someone could open up to a perfect stranger, but it was not my place to 34 . I enjoyed listening to her just as much as she 35 having somebody to talk to.
“ Have you ever been 36 ?” she asked.
I couldn’t help but 37 . “Ah, no.” I replied. “I’m only 16.”
“Sixteen?” she murmured. “That’s a great age, an age of 38 . There’s so much worth learning.”
She then spoke in a whipser, “Never take anyone for granted. If you are in 39 with someone, let it known. Otherwise, life may pass you by. Don’t spend your life angry . The ridiculous arguments which you think are important won’t even be remembered in a short time.”
Then, she hugged me and thanked me for letting her talk. As she turned to walk away, I could see that tears still hung in her eyes, but the smile that lit her face was amazing. After that, I have never seen that woman again, but her words of inspiration still live in me. At that time, the words were only little bits of advice. Now, 40 , they are the words which I try to live by, words that will always remind me of my special friend.
