I was tired and hungry after a long day of work. When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked up at me and said, “I   41   you.” I did not    42   what to say, and I just stood there, looking  43   at him. My first    44    was that he    45   need help with his homework. Then I asked, “What was that all      46   ?”

“Nothing,” he said, “My teacher said we should tell our parents we love them and   47   what they say.”

The next day I called his teacher to    48    more about what my son said and how the other parents had reacted（ 反应） . “Most of the fathers had the    49    response as you did,” the teacher said, ”When I first          50     that we try this, I asked the children   51    they thought their parents    52    say. Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble.”

Then the teacher   53   , “ I want my students to know that feeling love is an important part of    54   . I’m trying to tell them it’s too bad that we don’t express our feelings. A boy    55    tell his father or mother he loves him.” The teacher understands that sometimes it is   56    for some of us to say something that is good for us to say.

That evening when my son   57    to me, I took him in my arms and held on for an    58     moment, saying, “Hey, I love you,    59   .” I don’t know if saying that made    60    of us healthier, but it did feel pretty good.

Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum (口香糖) stuck to a brake. He  18   hits on the solution to his problem: he must   19   the brake.

Finally the solution is   20 . Sam does it and finds his bicycle works perfectly. In short he has solved the problem.
