As he was digging, other helpless parents arrived, 43 : “It’s too late! They’re all dead!
44 , face the reality, there’s nothing you can do!” To each parent he responded with 45 : “Are you going to help me now?” No one helped. And then he continued to dig for his son, stone by stone.
Courageously he went on alone because he needed to know 46 : “Is my boy 47 or is he dead?” He dug for 8 hours...12 hours...24 hours...36 hours...then, in 48 hour, he pulled back a large stone and heard his son’s 49 .

You promised, ‘No matter what happens, I’ll always be there for you!’ You did it, Dad!”
“What’s going on in there?” the father asked.
“There are 14 of us 52 53 33, Dad. We’re scared, hungry, thirsty and thankful you’re here. When the building collapsed, it made 54 , and it saved us.”

my parents. I am sure my dream will true one day with the 10．
money through my hard work.
I’ll call my father tomorrow which is Father’s Day． Every other 1 I call，Morn answers and Dad quietly picks up the 2 and listens in to our conversation．But 3 Father’s Day, we will talk a little about my job，my family and the weather． Then Dad will say，“Thanks for 4 ,son ,”and hang up．
5 it is almost summer, every year after our Father’s Day talk，I’m left with images of my father and the cold．As a boy I watched him out of the kitchen window 6 our lane（道） of snow with the first snow blower（旋转式清雪机）． First，he’d do our walk and then he’d blow the lanes of the shut-ins（不能出门的病人），the single morns，and poorer folks， 7 could not seem to get it together．
I 8 him and learned from him，but I 9 not remember my father and me ever having much of a conversation．Nothing that he 10 shared、vim me in a heart-felt way showed that he may be 11 ，upset or ready to climb the wall．
The last time I saw my father, I asked him to go out for a 12 with me．The sun was setting over the lake and I said，“Come on．We don’t 13 much time together any more． Let’s go． ”Father looked at me meaningfully and said，“ 14 ． ”
That visit to my father was about a week before September 11 th．I was near Ground Zero on that day and for five hours 15 the first plane struck, my family did not know of my whereabouts（下落）． 16 for me I arrived back at our home in Brooklyn．My biggest 17 was that my wife told me my father was 18 to drive from his home on Lake Huron to Ground Zero to find me．
To love the remote father is to face this paradox（矛盾）：to accept his refusal of my 19 for a sunset walk with his worry that I might have died with thousands of others last September； to deeply know, if not accept，that is his way, the way a man of 10 words，snowblower of shut-ins and lonely hearts，can best show a father’s love．

David Beckham made a losing start to his second season in Major League Soccer when his Los Angeles Galaxy team were crushed 4 – 0 by the Colorado Rapids on Saturday.
Beckham, in his first game since reaching 100 international caps for England in a friendly against France on Wednesday, played in a variety of different positions as head coach Ruud Gullit tried in vain to find a successful formation.
The former England captain and his Galaxy team mates struggled to cope with playing at altitude, just outside Denver.
“It is always going to be tough when you travel when you have got international games,” Beckham told reporters. It is always tough when you are back from England and you are adjusting to the time difference.
“I felt ok for most of the match but I was maybe not at my sharpest and maybe the altitude had something to do with that.”
Former Manchester United winger Terry Cooke opened scoring for Colorado after 10 minutes.
The Galaxy went further behind after an hour when defender Abel Xavier was adjudged to have fouled Rapids forward Omar Cummings inside the penalty area(罚球区). Christian Gomez converted the spot-kick after they argued fiercely.
“I find it hard not to criticize some of the decisions tonight but I’ve been told I’ll be fined if I do,” said Beckham. “But certain decisions change games. I think that has happened tonight.”
Cummings added Colorado’s third goal on 67 minutes before Colin Clark scored the fourth with 10 minutes left.
Xavier was sent off late in the game for using abusive language towards referee Abiodun Okulaja and Colorado substitute Ciaran O’Brien was also dismissed after a foul on Carlos Ruiz.

A．carried out judgment in the Galaxy’s favor
B．could do anything he liked on the football field
C．carried out judgment in the Rapids’ favor
D．might have received money from the Rapids
