That day, my parents were leaving for our hometown and I went to see them off．In fact, my father had never traveled by air before, so I just took this 1 to make his experience wonderful．In spite of being asked to book train tickets, I got them air tickets．
The moment I handed over the tickets to him, he was 2 to see that I had booked them air tickets．The 3 was very obvious on his face, waiting for the time of travel．We went to the airport together, checked the baggage, asked for a window seat and then waited 4 for the security check-in．He was thoroughly enjoying himself and I, too, was filled with joy 5 him experience all these things．
As they were about to go in for the security check-in, he walked up to me with tears in his eyes and thanked me．He became very emotional and it was as if I had done something 6 , but the fact that this meant a great deal to him．I felt surprised at his behavior．But later, thinking about the entire matter, I 7 my life．How many 8 did our parents have?Did they come true?Without understanding the financial situation, we, as children, 9 cricket bats, dresses, toys, outings, etc．Did we ever think about the sacrifices they had to make to realize our wishes?Did we ever say thanks for all that they have done for us?
Instead of my dad saying 10 to me, I would want to say I'm sorry for making him wait so long for this small dream．I do realize how much he has 11 for my sake and I will do my best to give the best possible attention to all their wishes．Being old does not mean that they have to 12 everything．They have wishes, too．
With their shiny, grey bodies, dolphins(海豚)appear to be large fish． 1 , they are really warm-blooded mammals．Although they can stay under the water for up to 15 minutes 2 , the dolphins must come up to breathe air through a hole on top of their heads．
Dolphins are social animals．Many of them even 3 around humans．In addition to being playful; they are helpful to men．For example 4 400 B．C．the Great poet Arion was saved from 5 by a dolphin．From then until now, dolphins have been helping swimmers, 6 in trouble．Swimmers, however, are not 7 humans they help．In some parts of the world, they help men 8 fish．
Dolphins are very clever．Its brain is even larger than a human's．Therefore, some people think a dolphin 9 smarter than a man, but 10 , brain size is not the only measure of cleverness．Besides, measuring dolphin's cleverness in other ways is not possible 11 men cannot talk with them．But we can almost 12 that dolphins can talk with each other．They make different 13 which seem to be at least a form of language．Up to now men 14 able to find out how dolphins are talking．So no one really knows what they are thinking．If we could talk with them, perhaps they could teach us to be 15 they seem to be．

Cloze．
I sat in my car waiting in line at the gas station, but my mind was somewhere else completely．It was just a week 1 Valentine's Day．Only twenty-six months had passed by since my husband Robert Kirk's death, and I couldn't stop 2 him．
Valentine's Day had been twice as 3 for me and my husband of fifty-two years, Robert's birthday was the day after, February 15th．Every year, on the 14th of February he'd 4 me a card, signed at the bottom with“Xs(kisses)”and“Os(hugs)”．Then the next day we'd gather with the kids around a birthday cake and blow out the candles．After all those years, it wasn't 5 now to be alone．
Suddenly, out of the corner of my 6 , I could see a truck backing up towards me fast．I hit the horn(喇叭), but it was too late．Crunch!It had backed up 7 into the driver's side of my car．Looking at the damaged side view mirror and the plate-sized dent(凹痕)in the door, I almost felt crying．I made a claim on my insurance policy(按保单索赔)and 8 , the claim was pushed through．A week later, I brought my car in for 9 and rented one．I drove it home through rainy streets that seemed to 10 my feelings．
The morning of the 14th, I woke up and still had a feeling of unhappiness．I had to get out of the house．So I headed to the garage．When I got close to it, my eyes was fixed on a card on the window of the car．It was signed with“RK”, the first letters of Robert Kirk's name;“215”, his birthday; and 11 for“kisses”and“hugs”that I'd never forget．Who did this?
The next day I received a note from my elder daughter, 12 “It was a surprise!I just want you to be happy．”
