完形填空
The
earliest memory I have of my father is one of me as a young boy holding his
hand by his two last fingers as we walked together.
As
I grew older I remember us listening over a radio to high school ball games
together. I would1how many points each player would score
as the game went on. Too small to stay awake for the2game,
I always fell asleep3the game ended. But the next morning I
would find by my pillow the score sheet filled out with the 4score
on; it was 5by my father.
In
high school I became very interested in athletics. My father would6all
my games. Good 7 in my senior year entitled our football team
to the state championship game. The night before, my father8announced
he had to 9 the bread to the stores and the site of the
games was a three-hour drive from his route. Back then I wasn't fully noticing
his 10.
The
next day as game time approached, I couldn't help thinking about Dad. Suddenly,
I saw a bread truck pulling into the stadium. 11completed,
he made the long drive in time to at least see 12of
my championship game.
Years
later, I was awakened early one morning by a ring at 5:30 A. M. As I 13to
answer the phone, I'll never forget the sound of the sheriff's voice — my dad
had just been killed in an automobile accident on his way to work. It felt as
if my heart had been torn away.
For
long I tried to remain strong14it and pretended I didn't
care until one day in the playground a little boy walked up to me and grabbed
my hand by my last two fingers. I completely lost it — I just let go and cried.
And I felt a sense of15.Sometimes you just have to cry and
there's no need to hold back anymore.
