This was the morning, when Jeremy, l4 years old, was to begin his duck shooting. He had   31  the whole idea ever since his father had bought him  32  and had promised him a __33__to this island. But he loved his father and wanted to  34  him.
They came to the beach. To ease the sense of fear, he took a  35   of his father, then he put the camera aside and picked up the gun. His father said happily, “I’ve been  36  a long time for this day. I’ll let you  37 .” He leaned (屈身) forward, eyes narrowed. “There is a small flight(一群) now. Keep your head down; I’ll give you the  38  .”
Jeremy’s heart was beating  39  . “No, don’t let them come, please!” But they came, closer, closer... “Now, take them!” cried his father. Jeremy felt his body  40  . He stood up, leaned into the gun the  41  his father taught him. In the same distance, the ducks saw the gunners and flared (突然飞去) wildly. For a second he hung there balanced between life and death. There was no sound. Jeremy stood  42  , seizing the gun.
“What happened?  43   didn’t you shoot?” his father said in a controlled voice. The boy didn’t answer. His lips were trembling.
“Because they were so  44  ,” he said and burst into tears. He sat down, face buried in his hands and wept. All  45  of pleasing his father was gone. He had his chance and he failed  .
For a moment his father was  46  . And then he said, “Let’s try again.” Jeremy didn’t lower his hands. “It’s no use, I can’t.”
“Hurry, you’ll miss them. Here!” Gold metal touched Jeremy. He  47  up, unbelieving . His father was handing the camera to him, and said softly, “Quick!,” Jeremy stood up and pressed his shutter release(快门) button in a flash. “I got them!” His face was bright.
Jeremy saw that there was no disappointment in his father’s eyes,  48  pride and love. “I’ll always love shooting. But that doesn’t mean you  49  . Sometimes it takes as much   50  not to do a thing as to do it.”  He paused. “I think you could teach me how to operate that camera .”

Family traditions were important in our house, and none was more appreciated than the perfect Christmas tree.

“Dad, can we watch when you trim(修剪) the tree?” My eldest son, Dan, nine, and his seven-year-old brother John, asked.

“I won’t be cutting this year,” my husband Bob said. “Dan, you and John are old enough to measure things. Do it all by yourselves. Think you boys can handle it?”

Dan and John seemed to grow six inches in their chairs at the thought of such an amazing responsibility. “We can handle it,” Dan promised. “We won’t let you down.”

A few days before Christmas, Dan and John rushed in after school. They gathered the tools they’d need and brought them out to the yard, where the tree waited. I was cooking when I heard the happy sounds as the boys carried the tree into the living room. Then I heard the sound that every mother knows is trouble: dead silence. I hurried out to them. The tree was cut too short. John crossed his arms tight across his chest. His eyes filled with angry tears.

I felt worried. The tree was central to our holiday. I didn’t want the boys to feel ashamed every time they looked at it. I couldn’t lower the ceiling, and I couldn’t raise the floor either. There was no way to undo the damage done. Suddenly, a thought came to my mind, which turned the problem into the solution.

“We can’t make the tree taller,” I said. “But we can put it on a higher position.”

Dan nodded his head sideways. “We could put it on the coffee table. It just might work! Let’s try it!”

When Bob got home and looked at the big tree on top of the coffee table, Dan and John held their breath.

“What a good idea!” he declared. “Why didn’t I ever think of such a thing?”

John broke into a grin. Dan’s chest swelled with pride.
