As is known to all, a positive parent-child relationship is     1     (benefit) to the physical and mental     2     (grow) of children, but     3     (keep) a healthy parent-child bond needs the efforts of both parties.

Parents should take the responsibility     4     (improve) their relationship with the children. What matters is spending quality time with their children,     5     tight their schedule is. For instance, they can eat meals together, go to sporting events together     6     watch their children’s favorite TV shows together,     7     can contribute greatly to making their children feel safe and loved. Children, on the other hand, should show     8     (appreciate) to their parents. If possible, they can give their parents a gift on a special day or help with housework     9     (regular).

No healthy parent-child relationship is     10     conflict. But as long as parents and children make a joint effort, they can settle the conflict and enjoy their time together.

Just as I began a new job in New York, I had to learn another important job: father. I was a businessman. At the office I had three new     1     (project), and at home I had a young son who was growing fast and     2     (need) me. I was puzzled and didn't know how to deal with the relationship between job and family until one day, during my business trip in Chicago, I came     3    an old family friend Dan,     4    was once a patient of my father. He told me something about my father.     5    was my father that helped him go through the cancer. When Dan knew he got cancer, he was very upset and wanted     6     (give) up, but my father, his doctor, encouraged him to go on     7     (fight) against the cancer. My father said to him, “You have     8     wonderful life and three fine children. Take some time with them. It's family that we live for－not just ourselves. Think of that    9     you will know life's worth the fight.” His words touched me, and I    10     (sudden) realized that family are the most important in the world.I should spend more time staying with them.

A reporter from Jiangsu Province went to Australia and some other countries with his father for a 3-month trip,    1    turned out to be a miracle (奇迹).

The reporter’s father spent most of his life     2     (work) on the farm. The son started these     3     (amaze) trips with his father because the father got cancer—a serious     4     (ill). The reporter wanted     5     (take) his father to travel in the hope that his father can find his younger self in his last days. They traveled more than 13,000 kilometers and took over 110,000 pictures on their trips to different     6    (country). Well, a miracle     7    (happen) during the “rebirth” trips.     8     their surprise, his father got     9     (good) and became more open-hearted.

He even taught himself to play     10    violin, and then he played it very well after practice. After that miracle trip, now he is expecting another trip to Africa. He is the most stylish dad ever. Time carves (雕刻) the old father’s face but youth flows in his blood. This is the real style.
