Question

Do you think of your parents? “Yes, of course.” you may answer, “I buy a present for my mother on     . And I give my father a present on Father’s Day, too.” Then what about the other days of a year? Always      to think of your parents, not just on some     days.

I have a friend. She     alone, because her parents live in another city. One day I went to see her. We had a nice talk. Then she wanted to make a telephone call. She dialed(拨) the number, but then she put the phone     . After about ten seconds, she dialed the number again. “Hi, Mom …”

Later, I asked, “Why did you dial the number     ?” She smiled, “My parents are old. They can’t get    the telephone quickly. I always do so when I call them. I just want to give them     time to answer the call.”

My friend is a good girl. She is always     her parents, so why not     her? You’ll also be a good child.
