Question

 Do you think of your parents? “Yes，of course,” you may answer，“I buy a present for my mother on Mother’s Day．And I give my father a present on Father's Day， ①  .” Then what about the other days of a year? Always remember to think of your parents，not just on some important days.

I have a friend who lives alone，because her parents live in another city. One day I went to see her. We had a nice chat. Then she wanted to make a call．She dialed（拨）the number，but then she put the phone down．After about ten seconds，she dialed the number  ②   . “Hi，Mum…”

Later I asked，“Why did you dial the number twice?” She smiled，“My parents are old. They can't get close to the telephone quickly . I always do so when I call them. ③I just want to give them enough time to answer the call.”

My friend is a good girl. She is always thinking about her parents. You also want to be a good child, right? So why not learn from her?
