  In one class, my teacher   6   a Father's Day essay contest for us and the winners' essays would be read in front of all the parents and students.After school I walked home,   7   my father, who I would write about in my essay.

  He sat with me in the   8   when I was a little kid and had a nightmare.He   9   me with a new puppy at my eighth birthday party.He sat and tried to   10   death to me when Grandpa Bob died.To me, he wasn't a world-famous astronaut, just my dad.

  I wrote about all these   11   in my essay.

  One of our neighbors said, “I   12   you'll win the contest, David.You're the only one in town who could write about being the son of an astronaut.” I just shrugged(耸耸肩).

  I hadn't shown anyone the essay, but now I almost hoped I wouldn't win.I didn't want to win just because my father was an astronaut.

  I won the second prize.When I finished reading my essay, the   13   applauded.I saw my father blowing his nose.I went back to my seat.

  Dad nodded to me,   14   his throat, and put his hand on my shoulder.“Son, this is the proudest moment of my life,” he said.

  It was the proudest moment of my life, too.Maybe I'll never be a great hero or win a Nobel Prize, but just then, it was   15   just to be my father's son.
