My 8-year-old son took it upon himself to plan a 10th anniversary     1     (celebrate) for my husband and me this weekend. He planned the whole day,     2    (start) with what he thought to be the     3    (good) breakfast to prepare for my husband as a surprise. Then he suggested going on     4     romantic picnic on the beach,     5    (follow) by a family game time to celebrate the family that resulted from our happy marriage in the first place.

He     6    (thoughtful) included a “card-making” station he had set up with markers and construction paper to help each of his parents to privately create loving anniversary cards     7         each other. He also recreated the special moments from our wedding day, with music he     8    (select) beforehand and foods and drinks.

He had also spent all week before the anniversary making paper hearts. He then     9    (ask) me to string them all over the house on the morning of the anniversary, so that he and I could surprise his dad/my husband with all the love. It was such a kind gesture for a little boy to think of. I left the whole thing in his little hands,     10     turned out beautiful! He told me he wanted to make an “unforgettable” day for his parents.

As     7     result, your parents feel     8    hard to get used to the new situation without     9    (know) your latest news. What kids should keep in mind is that in most cases, your parents can understand what you are going through (经历) because they     10     (be) teens once.

This way, not only     7       (be) the deaf children learning to read, but also they are entertained.

“Many   deaf children struggle    8       (learn) to read, often due to lack of resources that       bridge the gap between sign language and written text. The app     9       (perfect) gives them this   tool to make it much    10     (easy) for them to read.” said Andrew Garrihy, Huawei’s CMO for Western Europe.
