Question

Michael O’her lived alone with his father, and the two of them had a very special relationship. The father believed in encouragement.
Though Michael was the    21   of the class when he entered high school, his    22  continued to encourage him, but also made it very clear that he did not have to play    23   if he didn’t want to.
However, Michael loved football and was    24  to try his best at every practice. All through high school, he never   25  a practice or a game, but remained a bench warmer(替补队员) all four years. His   26  father was always in the stands, with words of   27  for him.
It was the end of the football season, and as Michael ran slowly onto the practice field shortly    28  the big final game, the coach met him with a telegram. Michael    29   the telegram and became deathly silent—his father died that morning, and the sad man left for    30  immediately.
In the third quarter,  when the team was ten points   31  , a silent young man eagerly 32 onto the sidelines. The coach and his players were shocked to see their team-mate back so    33 .
“Coach, please let me  34 . I have to play today,” said Michael. Feeling sorry for him, the coach   35  . Before long, nobody could believe their eyes. This small bench warmer played like a(n)    36 . He helped his team win finally.
When the team was cheering for their    37 , Michael was sitting in the corner all alone. The coach came to him and said, “You were fantastic! Tell me   38  you did it?”
Tears in eyes, Michael said, “Well, you knew my dad died, but did you know he was blind?” He    39  a smile, “Dad came to all my games, but today was the first time he could    40   me play, and I wanted to show him I could do it!”
