When I was a child, my father had to do three jobs for a family of seven. Every time I saw him come back late, looking 1 I promised myself that someday I would show my 2 to my father for what he had done.

    Over the next twenty years, my father worked hard to 3our big family and suffered a lot from a heart problem. One morning, my father's old car broke down and he asked me to 4him up after his medical examination. He had 5 refused when I offered to replace (取代) his old car. He said that he did not want something that he couldn't pay6.

    7he stepped out of the doctor's office, he looked serious. We drove in silence and he made me promise to keep the medical report as a8. I did this with a heavy heart.

    At that time, I was 9a new car. I asked my father to go with me to pick10out. When I started talking with the salesman, I noticed my father11a brown car. I12chose a white car. My father took one final look at the brown car and seemed kind of 13before leaving. I heard him muttering (嘀咕) to himself, “14like that car. Wish I could 15it.”

    Several days later, I asked my father if he could go with me to pick up16new car. As we arrived, the salesman17him a key to a new car - the brown one - and18that it was for him, from me. My father looked at me in great19 I told him it was my childhood20and smiled at this man, who had given up everything for his family.

Last year, I worked in a middle school near my mother's house, and I stayed with her for a month. During that time, I helped her do some {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (家务活） and buy some food. 

After the first week, I noticed that the food was eaten up very quickly. Then I began keeping an eye on my mum. I was so {#blank#}2{#/blank#}（惊讶的）to find that she would put some of the food into a paper bag and go out with it at about nine every morning. And finally, I decided{#blank#}3{#/blank#} （跟着）her. I saw her taking the food to the street children. She would also spend a lot of time talking and {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（玩耍）with them. 

One day, I talked to a {#blank#}5{#/blank#}（邻居） and found out that my mum was well-known in the area. The children were very friendly with her and even thought of her {#blank#}6{#/blank#}（当作） their own mother. Then it hit me—why wouldn't she want to tell me about it? Was she worried that I would stop buying food if I found out?

When Mum got home, I told her she didn't need to keep it a {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(秘密）from me. And she told me something about the children. Some of them lived with an old lady in a small house, and the{#blank#}8{#/blank#}（其他的）children slept on the street. For years, she was helping the poor street children by giving them food. After she told me everything, I was so moved by how great she was. She helped them in need. Being her son, I took{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (骄傲）in my mum. 

I {#blank#}10{#/blank#}（继续） to buy food for my mum after that. But I always added one more bag for her.
