Dear son,

The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me．

If I get dirty when eating, if I can not dress, have patience and remember the hours I   36   teaching it to you．If, when I speak to you, I   37   the same things thousand and one times, do not   38   me, listen to me．When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story   39   you got to sleep．When I do not want to have a   40  , neither shame me nor scold me．Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I   41  , in order that you wanted to bathe．When you see my   42   little about new technologies, give me the necessary time and do not look at me with your mocking(嘲弄) smile．I taught you   43   to do so many things: to eat good, to dress well, to confront life…．When at some moment I lose the memory or the   44   of our conversation, let me have the necessary time to remember, and if I cannot do it, do not become nervous, as the most important thing is not our conversation but surely to be with you and to have you   45   to me．

If ever I do not want to eat, do not force me．I know well   46   I need to and when not．When my   47   legs do not allow me to walk, give me your   48  , the same way I did when you gave your first   49  ．And when someday I say to you that I do not want to   50   any more ---- that I want to rest forever, do not get angry．Someday you will understand．

As I sat beside the window that afternoon, my heart began to sink further with each passing car. This was a day I’d looked forward to for weeks: Miss Pace’s end-of-the-year party. I had   21   volunteered my mother when Miss Pace

requested  22   volunteers. By two o’clock other mother had come with their offerings, but there was no   23  of her. As the noisy party went on, I wouldn’t  24    the window, watching outside and holding out hope that Mum would come soon. The three o’clock bell soon woke me from my thoughts and I took my book bag and  25    out of the door for home.

On the walk home, I planned my revenge(报复). I would shut the front door angrily upon entering,  26   to return her hug when she rushed over to me, and vow(发誓)   27   to speak to her again. The house was    28  when I arrived. I was lying face-down on my bed, shaking with a mixture of heartbreak and 29  .

When she returned, entered my room and sat beside me, I didn’t   30   but instead

stared into my pilliow refusing to accept her presence. “I’m so sorry, honey,” she said. “I just   31  . I got busy and forgot.” I still didn't move. “Don't    32  her,”I told myself. “She forgot you. Make her   33  .” Then my mother did something completely   34  . She began to laugh. I rolled over and faced her,   35  to let her see the anger and disappointment in my   36  . But soon I found my mother wasn’t laughing at all, actually. “I’m so sorry,” she said, in tears, “I let my little boy   37  .” she sank down on the bed and began to cry like a little girl. I was shocked   38   I had never seen my mother cry . To my understanding, mothers weren’t supposed to. “It’s okay, Mom,” I said, “we didn’t even   39  those cookies. Don’t cry. It’s all right. Really.” My words made my mother sit up. She    40  her  eyes,and a slight smile appeared. I smiled back awkwardly(局促不安)， and she pulled me th her.
