My mother’s job is 【小题1】(sell) fruit in a supermarket. There are all kinds of fruits, 【小题2】(range) from common apples and pears to imported fruit. She often brings us some fruit 【小题3】(sell) well to let us taste it. Though some people think my mother’s job is 【小题4】(bore), I think it is meaningful.

Several days ago, I came to London for a business meeting. My nephew Jordan is studying in Oxford University. Originally, I【小题1】 (not see) him until the meeting was over. But he called to say he wanted to meet me as soon as possible. As a result, we met each other at a restaurant last night. Jordan told me that a big company 【小题2】 (offer) him a position as soon as he graduated, which surprised me a lot. I thought it 【小题3】 (give) a great surprise to his parents too. Jordan also told me that he【小题4】 (take) part in the coming basketball match to be held in his university that weekend and invited me to watch it. I accepted his invitation happily and said I 【小题5】 (go) there to cheer him on.

Happy birthday to you! On this special day, I would like to let you know how much I am【小题1】(thank) to you for【小题2】you have done for me in the past 18 years.

You’re not a rich man 【小题3】 a famous person. But in my heart, you are among the 【小题4】(great) men in the world. I’m proud of you. And I always feel lucky to have so good a father!

I want to thank you for all your efforts you have made【小题5】(support) the family. You’re successful【小题6】a son, a husband and a father. You take good care of Grandparents. You help me with my schoolwork and go【小题7】(shop) with Mum on Sundays. You always give me【小题8】(free) to do whatever I like. You never force me to do anything that doesn’t interest me. Nor do you ever forbid me to do anything I am 【小题9】(true) interested in.

I’m sorry to say I【小题10】(show) no respect for you before, but from now on I’ll share more time together with you.

Wish you happy forever, Daddy!
