5．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 （36）B to make his experience wonderful．In spite of being asked to book train tickets，I got them air tickets．

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 （41）A，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 （42）B my life．How many （43）C did our parents have？Did they come true？Without understanding the financial situation，we，as children，（44）B 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 （45）C 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 （46）A 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 （47）D everything．They have wishes，too．
