Many Tuesday mornings. I have coffee with my father. Although my father is a man of few words, I really   1 the time along with him.
One recent Tuesday, I found it a bit  2 when I rang the doorbell, no one seemed to be home. I climbed in through the window, noticing the lights that shone from the kitchen, and  3 that my dad must be there, but he wasn’t. I  4 through his home, checking every room. I tried not to   5 . Yet, upstairs, downstairs, no Dad anywhere.
I was worried .   6 , my father was seventy-one years old. Anything could have happened to him. Then, I got in my car and drove to my mother’s aerobics(有氧运动)class.
On the drive, I thought a lot about my father and our  7 together. Suddenly, I was three years old and he was   8 me up to the living room window to see the Christmas lights. In his  9 , I was safe and secure. At age ten, he used to wake me up with warm breakfast in bed. Then I was twelve and my dad was   10 all the kids at my birthday party with his magic tricks. I was so   11 of my father for being so  12 and talented. He’d made my party a  13 .
As I entered my mother’s class. I was nervous. My mom looked at me in   14.
“Mom, where’s Dad?” I asked, “He’s working in the   15 on the side of the house!” she answered.
And I hurried to my car and   16 back to the yard. “Hey, Dad!” I yelled out and told him about my fears of the last half hour. My dad  17 laughing his typical laugh that was always  18 . I was so thankful that I still had my daddy. And so , as I  19 the door to my father’s house, we went inside for our usual cup of coffee.
Thanks, Daddy, for all the   20 and more importantly, for all your love.

The first   37   I have of him--of anything, really--is his strength. To a little boy right after World War II , a father seemed a god with strange strengths and powers   38   him to do and know any things in the world, such as putting a bicycle chain back on, building a hamster cage or guiding a jigsaw(拼板玩具) so it   39   the letter F. In fact, I learned the alphabet that way in those pre-television days.

There were, of course, rules to learn. First came the handshake.    40   of those fishy (冷冰冰的) little finger grips, but a good firm squeeze   41   by an equally strong gaze into the other’s eyes.

As time passed, there were other rules to learn. “Always do your best.” “Do it now.” “Never lie!” And most   42  , “You can do whatever you have to do.”

By my teens, he wasn’t telling me   43   to do anymore, which was scary and exciting at the same time. He   44   perspective (视角), not telling me what was around the great corner of life but letting me know there was a lot   45   just today and the next, which I hadn’t thought of.

With father, I   46   became a grown up.

There seemed to be a   51   between us, which I found   52   to fill in.

After much thought and practice (“You can do whatever you have to do.”), one night last winter, I sat down by his bed. I told my father how much I   53   him and talked of some of my advice on him.

He said he knew how hard my   54   had been to say and how proud he was of me.

“I had the best teacher,” I said. “You can do whatever you have to do.” He smiled a little. And we shook hands once again,   55     .
