After Father＇s Death
November 4, 1996 was a day I shall never forget.
At 9 o＇clock that night, I was told that something serious had happened in my family. I hurried home from school. When I saw many of my father＇s fellow workers in his bedroom, I knew the worst thing had happened . I pushed my way into the room and saw Father lying in bed , covered with a white sheet①. I rushed to him, lifted the white sheet with trembling hands, and caught sight of his pale face with his eyes tightly closed. In despair I shook his shoulders, crying, “Dad! Dad! ” But his mouth never opened. Tears began running down my cheeks.
During the following two days I was deep in sorrow. When I was arranging Father＇s funeral②, many classmates and friends came to comfort③ Mother and me.
On the day I returned to school, my classmates again tried to comfort me . When I opened my desk , I found in it a lot of letters and notes, in which were many comforting and encouraging words. I was so moved that I coudn＇t keep my tears. Then a teacher told me that my classmates had contributed④ a large amount of money to help me pay living and school expenses⑤. I was very thankful to them and tears again filled my eyes . I covered my face with my hands though I was a big boy. I could find no words to express my feelings at that moment. Their love for me gave me much courage. I was proud of such a warmhearted⑥ class.

【写法指要】
本文写得真实、清楚，表达了三种感情：悲痛之情，友爱之情和感激之情。悲痛之情和感激之情是通过两种眼泪表达的：悲痛的眼泪夺眶而出，泪如泉涌（crying，began running down）；感激的眼泪情不自禁“couldn＇t  keep back my tears, tears again filled my eyes”。友爱之情的表达主要是通过重复动词“comfort”，“contribute”和分词“comforting”，“encouraging”实现的。最后，作者为有这样富于同情心的班集体而骄傲，并要化悲痛为力量，表达对同学、老师们关怀的谢意。
