One day last month after I received my salary, I went shopping with my little son. 　21 　in the 　22 　store, I had my pocket 　23　 　and my whole salary was gone with it. I was so angry that I almost lost 　24　 　of myself. What could I do? We were not very rich. The money was really not a small sum for my family. It would　 25　 　our life greatly. How could I tell my wife?

I felt very sad and even 　26　 　for losing the money then I got home. To make up for my　 27　 mistake, I gathered all my strength to give our house a thorough cleaning and then prepared a wonderful meal and cooked a special dish my wife loved to 　28 　her.

When she came home, I 　29 　a smile to 30 　her. She was 　31 　to see the neat house and delicious meal. We sat at the table and began to eat. I told my story 　32 　. She did not　 33 　.It was as if she had not heard my words.

“I’ve lost my salary,” I murmured to her again.

“I see,” she did not shout at me as I had　 　34 　. She didn’t lose her　 　35 　. So I was afraid she was trying hard to　 36　 　her anger.

A moment later, my wife was still 　37 　and seemed to be enjoying her favourite dish. At last I could not keep asking, “I’ve lost the money. Why not shout at me?”She　 　38 　her eyes, looking at me and said, “oh, on the contrary, I’m thinking about how to　 　39　 　you. It’s　 　40　 　who is to blame.
