My mother used
to ask me what is the most important part of the body. Through the years I
would 41 the correct answer. When I was younger I
thought 42 was very important to us as humans，so I said，“My ears, Mummy.” She said，“No. Many people are 43 . But you keep thinking about it and
I will ask you again soon.”
Several years
passed before she asked me again. Since making my first 44_ , I had often thought over the question.
So this time I told her, “Mummy，it must be our eyes.” She looked at me and said, “You are 45 fast，but the answer is not correct because there are many people who are
blind.”
__46 the years, mother asked me a couple more 47_ and always her response to my answers
was, “ No, but you are getting _48
every year, my child,” Then
last year, my Grandpa _49_ .
Everybody was heart broken. Everybody was crying. My mum looked at me when it
was our _50_ to say our final good-bye to Grandpa. She
asked me, “Do you know the most important body part ?”
I was _51
when she was asking me this now. I always thought this was a _52_ between her and me. She saw the _53_ on my face and told me, “This question is
very important. It shows that you have really _54
your life.” I saw her
eyes well up with tears. She said, “ My dear, the most important body part is
your _55_ .” I asked, “Is it
because they hold up your head?” She replied, “No, it is _56
on them a crying friend
or loved one can rest their head. I only hope that you have enough _57
and friends that you
will have a shoulder to cry 58 when you need it.” Then and there I
understood the most important body part is not a _59_ one. It is sympathetic(同情的) to the pain of _60_ .
