4 . I was tired and hungry after a long day of work.

When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son ________ up at me and said, "I love you." I didn't know what to say. For several ________ all I could do was to ________ there and look at him. My first thought was that he must need ________ with his homework or he was trying to ________ me for some news. Finally, I asked, "What was that all about?"

"Nothing," he said. "My teacher said we should ________ our parents that we love them and sees what they say. It's ________."

The next day I called his teacher to find out more about this "experiment" and how the other parents had ________.

"Most of the fathers had the ________reacting (反应) as you did," the teacher said. "When I first

________ we try this, I asked the children what they thought their parents would say. Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble. "The ________ is," the teacher explained, "feeling loved is an important part of ________. It is something all people ________. What I'm trying to tell the children is that it's too ________ we don't all express those feeling. A boy should be ________ to tell his dad he loves him."

The teacher, a middle-aged man, understands how ________ it is for some of us to say the things that would be good for us to say.

When my son came to me that evening, I held on to (抱着) him for ________ second. And just before he ________ away, I said in my deepest, most manly (有男子气概的) voice, "Hey, I love you, too."

I don't know if saying that made either of us healthier, but it did fell pretty good   (感觉很好). Maybe next time one of my children says "I love you", it would not take me a whole ________ to think of the right ________.

5 . 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

When I was young, I read many kinds of books, including fairy tales. In those     1    (book), heroes were handsome and heroines were beautiful. I, therefore, believed I had to be beautiful if I     2     (want)to become a great person.

As I grew up, I began to realize outer beauty was not so     3     (importance)to make someone excellent. I remember a friend of     4     (my). She believed that she could do everything she wanted    5    she was so beautiful, but she lost her friends one by one. What she learned was that inner beauty is more important than outer beauty.

Whenever 1 see TV advertisement, I feel they make us believe beauty     6     (be)very important. Although we say inner beauty is more valuable, we often look for plastic surgery(整形手术)     7     (make)us more beautiful. There seems to be a boom in plastic surgery. It is surprising to realize the number of people     8    try it is increasing day by day.

We know goodlooking guys usually get     9     (high)scores on job interviews than others. So, what is real beauty? I want to say that what does make one look like a     10     (real)beautiful person is inner beauty.

8 . When I was a little girl, I remember that when my dad was repairing something, he would ask me to hold the hammer, so we would have time for a conversation with each other. I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.

I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was to busy in those days.

Four years ago, my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend.

One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in the hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized how little I knew about my dad, his deepest thoughts and his dreams.

After his death I learned much more about him and even more about myself. All he ever wanted was my time. And now he has all my attention every single day.
