My earliest memory of dad is grabbing(抓住)his hand while we walked
together. As I grew older, I remember my father and I listening to basketball
games on the radio. I always fell asleep 35 the
game was over. When I woke up in the morning, the score sheet with the 36 score
on it would be lying next to me. I’ll always remember that.
On cold mornings my father would bring his
bread truck by the house. I used to ride on the floor of that bread truck as he
delivered(分送)the
bread to the stores. The 37 and the warmth from
the bread made my mouth water and kept me warm. I’ll always remember that.
My father would be present at all my games.
One night before an important game my father told me 38 that
he wouldn’t be able to watch the game because he had to deliver the bread and
it was a three-hour 39 . The next day as the game drew
near I thought about my dad. I happened to look across the field and 40 saw
his bread truck pulling into the stadium. He managed to 41 the
game. I’ll always remember that.
Years later I had become a 42 .
I’ll never forget the voice on the phone early one morning telling me dad had
just been killed in a traffic accident. I could hear my heart 43 in
my ears. I 44 the phone and went back to my bedroom.
After that nothing really 45 to me. I still
taught in school but I couldn’t centre attention on my teaching. One day I was
on the playground when a little boy walked up to me and grabbed my hand. His
hand held mine the same way I used to hold my father’s by the last two fingers.
At that moment I found my 46 in life again. You see
even though my father was gone, he left something with me. He left me his
smile, compassion and touch. My purpose was to use those gifts as he did. From
that day on I started. I’ll always remember that!
