Do you know what love is? Do you really think that love is unilateral (单方面的)? Here is one story.

A father sat at his desk looking at his monthly bills carefully_________his young son rushed in and _________，“Dad, because today is your birthday and you're 55 years old, I'm going to give you 55 _________, one for each year！”   When the boy started _________ his words, the father exclaimed, “Oh, Andrew, don't do it now; I'm too _________！” The youngster immediately fell _________ as tears welled up in his big blue eyes._________ the father said, “You can finish later.”

The boy said _________ but quietly walked away, with _________ written over his face. That evening the father said, “Come and finish the kisses now, Andrew！” But the boy didn't __________.

Unfortunately, a few days later after this incident, the boy had an __________ and was drowned. His heartbroken father wrote，“__________ I could tell him how much I regret my thoughtless__________, and could be assured that he knows how much my heart is__________.”

Love is a two－way street. Any loving act must be warmly accepted__________ it will be taken as rejection and can__________ a scar (疤痕)．If we are too busy to give and__________ love, we will regret it! Nothing is more important than__________ with love to the cry for love from those who are near and__________ to us, because there may be no__________ at all as in the case of the little boy.

My daughter, Beth, hurt her knee in the soccer practice again. Her _________ was to play soccer in college. She had suffered a severe knee injury one year earlier and _________ back from surgery.

But now Beth was _________, “I’ll be out the whole season. I won’t make a college team. It’s over!” The doctor didn’t sound encouraging about a(n) _________to soccer but there was still a(n) _________ chance. She disappeared into her bedroom as soon as we returned home. All the comfort from my husband and I was _________ with silence. She became low in _________ and even stopped singing, something she’d always done when _________ in something she loved.

We _________ her through the hard times. The __________ process was awful at first, but with our encouragement, Beth started walking with sticks, then __________ walked on her own, and she even __________ running in the afternoons. To our relief, her doctor finally __________ her recovery. As the end of her senior year approached, Beth was named the speaker for her class.

On the graduation ceremony, I watched proudly as Beth marched to the stage and began her speech. “It has been a tough but memorable year for me. What I learned was to be so incredibly __________ for the love and devotion from my family.” My daughter truly __________ it.

While warming up to a cheerleading competition, 17-year-old Keianna Joe experienced a scary medical event. She _______ suddenly and went into cardiac arrest (心脏骤停).

Andrea Joe, Keianna’s mother, said her daughter’s cheer coach ran madly, _______ for help, and asked someone to call a/an _______. Andrea Joe then witnessed her beloved daughter _______ and without a pulse. Andrea, a certified medical assistant, _______ into action, working to save her precious daughter’s life. “I just _______,” Andrea said. “I know CPR. I know how to do this. This is my baby and I have to _______ her.”

For about ten _______, this loving mother worked to save her cheerleader daughter in cardiac arrest. She _______ CPR (心肺复苏术) on Keianna, hoping to get her heart beating again.

Then, a portable defibrillator (除颤器) arrived on the scene. Thankfully, Andrea had received training on these ________, but there was something different about this one.

“The machine said, ‘Shock required’,” Andrea said. “And I mean, I’ve trained on these AED (自动体外除颤仪) devices before and they’ve never told me, you know, ‘Shock required’.” Nevertheless, Andrea used the defibrillator to ________ Keianna’s heart back into rhythm and performed even ________ CPR on her. Finally, a heartbeat returned! Andrea had saved her daughter’s life!

After a 10-day hospital stay, Keianna is out, but with a mini defibrillator in her ________. It still remains unclear what on earth ________ Keianna to go into cardiac arrest. Andrea stated, with tears ________ up, that on the way home from the hospital, she made Keianna hold her hand.

“She’s with me, she’s here, she’s right next to me and I’ve got her,” Andrea said. “And it’s the best feeling ever.”
