    During my second year at the city college. I was told that the education department was offering a "free" course (课程) called Thinking Chess for three credits (学分). I jumped at the idea of taking the class because, after all, who doesn't want to 1 a few dollars? More than that, I'd always wanted to learn chess. And, even if I weren't excited enough about free credits, news about our instructor was appealing enough to me. He was an international grandmaster (大师), which 2 I would be learning from one of the game's best. I could hardly wait to him.

    The instructor Ashley was kind and smart, a former graduate returning to teach, and this meet was no game for him. He meant business. In his introduction, he made it job real that our credits would be hard—earned. In order to 3the class, we had to write a paper on how we plan to 4 what we would learn in class to our future professions and, finally to our lives. I managed to get an A in that 5 and learned life lessons that have served me well beyond the 6.

    Ten years after my chess class with Ashley, I'm still putting to use what he 7 me: The most important 8 that you learn when you play chess is how to make good 9. On every single move you have to analyze (分析) a situation, process what your opponent (对手) is doing and evaluate (评估) the best move from among all your choices, these words still ring true today in my 10 as a journalist.

    The end of my sophomore(大学二年级)year was near. One day, Mom called me, hoping my 1 break would be spent with grandparents. They were both in their2, and I knew they really needed help around the farm.

    So I packed my car 3 the final exam and started my life on the farm. As weeks passed, I 4 daily work with Grandpa gradually. Grandma often told me 5about her childhood, family and the early years after she and Grandpa had married.

    On the last Saturday in June, I went fishing with my grandfather. 6, we saw one of the swans was dead by the pond. Grandpa had given the pair of swans to Grandma on their fiftieth anniversary of marriage. "Why don't we buy another one?" I suggested. But grandpa said, "no... it's not that 7. Because swans mate for life. There's 8we can do for the one that's left. He has to work it out for himself." A few 9 later, we drove by the pond and found the other swan lying near the same place where we had found the first one. It, too, was dead.

    Then July 3 came. That was the day Grandma 10. She died of a stroke(中风) suddenly that morning. The funeral was held the next day. Grandpa had insisted on 11 it as soon as possible.

    After the funeral, Grandpa asked all the people to get back to their own lives. Grandpa was not a man who could share his sadness with others, and we were all 12 about him. During the rest of the summer, we stayed busy working. I thought there was something different about Grandpa but couldn't tell exactly 13 it was.

    September was near, and I had to leave. 14 I drove down the driveway, he waved to me and then walked to the gate to start the morning check.

    One and a half months later, Mom called me at university on a windy 15 day to tell me Grandpa had died. He died of a stroke, the same as Grandma.
