My mother used to ask me what is the most important part of the body. Through the years I would 　41 　the correct answer. When I was younger I thought 　42　 was very important to us as humans，so I said，“My ears, Mummy.” She said，“No. Many people are 　　　43 　. But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again soon.”

Several years passed before she asked me again. Since making my first 　44_ 　, I had often thought over the question. So this time I told her, “Mummy，it must be our eyes.” She looked at me and said, “You are 　45　 　fast，but the answer is not correct because there are many people who are blind.”

__46　 　the years, mother asked me a couple more 　47_ 　and always her response to my answers was, “ No, but you are getting 　_48 　every year, my child,” Then last year, my Grandpa 　_49_ . Everybody was heart broken. Everybody was crying. My mum looked at me when it was our 　_50_ 　to say our final good-bye to Grandpa. She asked me, “Do you know the most important body part ?”

It shows that you have really 　_54　 　your life.” I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, “ My dear, the most important body part is your 　_55_ .” I asked, “Is it because they hold up your head?” She replied, “No, it is 　_56　 　on them a crying friend or loved one can rest their head. I only hope that you have enough 　_57　 　and friends that you will have a shoulder to cry 　58 　when you need it.” Then and there I understood the most important body part is not a 　_59_ one. It is sympathetic(同情的) to the pain of 　_60_ .
