五、完形填空
One night I was sitting in my kitchen as my 15-year-old son Tommy fought with his brother Kevin. I didn't pay attention when Kevin went upstairs with a look of 1 on his face.
About 20 minutes later,as I was walking upstairs,I 2 Kevin crying in his room. I knocked on the door and asked,"Kevin,do you want to 3 ?"
No 4 . I tried again. Still nothing happened.
So,I took a piece of paper from a notepad and wrote,"If you don't want to talk,we can write 5 to each other." And I slipped(使滑动)it under the door.
An hour later,I was still sitting on the floor outside his door with a stack of(一摞)notes in my hands. As I read one of Kevin's notes,I couldn't help crying. It said,"Nobody in this family loves me. I am neither the youngest nor the oldest,and I am not the 6 . Tommy thinks I am too weak,and Dad wishes he had another Kevin as a kid 7 he's better at study. You're never around to even 8 me."
He was right about my part. Feeling sorry for him,I wrote back,"Kevin,I do love you,and you are 9 in this family." He didn't reply for a while,but I could hear him crying softly. Kevin 10 paper,so he wrote "Thanks" on a paper cup. I wrote back "For what?" It was returned to me with the reply "Loving me" written on it.
Since then,I have tried my best to care about my family members. When one of us notices that another is unhappy,we'll smile and say,"Write it on a paper cup."
