Just home from work, Daddy stopped in the kitchen where Mother and I were preparing supper. From the look on his face, we knew something was 1 him.
“Mr. Roth is worse,” he said. “The doctor says it’s only a 2 of time now. The old man can 3 his pain, but not the long hours he has to spend along. His eyes are 4 bad that he can’t read, and he doesn’t get much 5 . He keeps begging for a big dog to be his companion, 6 he can reach out and touch as he sits in his wheelchair in the sun.”
“Why don’t they 7 him a dog?” I asked.
“Honey, with Mr. Roth in the hospital so much of time, there are a lot of 8 . There isn’t enough money.”
“They could go to the animal shelter and get one,” I 9 .
“Yes,” Daddy said. “I suppose they could. But it has to be a 10 dog, one they can trust to be gentle. Not all big dogs are.”
After supper, I 11 back where my big German shepherd(牧羊犬), Dan, was dozing under a tree. He jumped up and ran to meet me 12 he always did when I came into sight. There were no other 12-year-old girls in our neighborhood, so I 13 Dan for companionship. When I rode my bicycle, he ran behind me; when I roller-skated on the sidewalk, he trotted(小跑)behind. It had been that way since Daddy 14 him home four years before.
Now, I couldn’t forget Daddy’s words in the kitchen. I threw my arms around Dan’s neck and buried my face 15 his stiff hair.
“I love you,” I whispered to him. “I’d be 16 without you, but …oh, Dan, I know what I should do, 17 I don’t want to do it .”
I thought about Mr. Roth. He was old, sick and almost 18 . It seemed to me that he was just about out of blessings. I got up 19 . I knew what I had to do, and if I didn’t do it right now, I’d 20 myself out of it.
I went to my father and said, “Mr. Roth can borrow Dan.” Tears started down my face.

Dad came in the midnight. We heard every sound, but we pretended to be asleep.
Next morning he looked weak and thin, sitting in a chair by the kitchen fire. The light of the fire shone through his long empty sleeve. Everything went as usual. Grandma found something to do in the bedroom. Grandpa went out for some water. Mother, with her back to us, was getting the cakes ready for breakfast.
But nothing was right. When grandma came out of the bedroom, she walked on tiptoe. When grandpa came back, he said nothing about the weather. At breakfast Mother passed us the fruit and said something, but her voice was too high.
At last my sister, Lou, pushed back her chair. “It’s your turn to wash the dishes.” But I had washed the dishes the night before. I said nothing because it was not right to quarrel in front of Dad just home with the empty sleeve.
“It is your turn,” Lou said again. I looked at her in surprise.
“It is not,” I said because I suddenly remembered Mother had told us to go on as usual.
“Children, children,” Mother said in a quiet, glad kind of voice.
And Dad was smiling because he felt at home at last.
