Question

Peter was a potter (制陶工). He had a wife and two fine sons. One night, his older son got a stomachache. At first, Peter and his wife thought the boy just got a bad cold, so they didn’t take it        . But it was not a cold. It was terrible appendicitis(阑尾炎), and the boy died suddenly that night. Knowing the         could not happen if he had taken the ill seriously, Peter was very        and was       of guilt. Then his wife couldn’t stand the thing, so she left him alone with his six-year-old         son.
Peter lost his two favourite persons. He felt no hope in the world and         to alcohol(酒精). Then Peter became an alcoholic(酒鬼). As he drank more, Peter began to lose       he had---his home, his land and his work. Finally, Peter died        in a San Francisco room. When I heard of Peter’s death, I thought he was a        and wasted his life. As time went by, I began to know         I once thought was wrong. I knew Peter’s little son, Ernie. He is one of the kindest, most caring, most loving men I have ever known. I watched Ernie with his children and saw the love         them. I knew that kindness and caring had to         somewhere. I never heard Erine talk much about his father.
One day I asked him, ‘ I’m really puzzled by something. I know your father was the only one to raise you. What on earth (究竟) did he do to make you become such a special person?’ Ernie sat quietly and smiled for a few         . Then he said, “When I was a child, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, ‘I love you, son.’ ”
Tears came into my        .Al had not left any money       , but he had been a kind, loving father, and he left behind a legacy(遗产) of love.
