  When I was 16 years old,I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn't the first time I had been abroad. Like most English children I learned French at school and I had often been to France,so I was used to speaking a foreign language to people who didn't un?derstand English. But when I went to America I was real?ly looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problems.

  How wrong 1 was!The misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to give my friend Danny a call and tell him that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.

  "Yes”, I said. "I want to give my friend a ring.”

  "Well,that's nice," he said. "Are you getting married? But aren't you a bit young?"

  "Who is talking about marriage?" I replied. "I only want to give my friend a ring to tell him I've arrived. Can you tell me where's a phone box?"

  "Oh!" he said,"There's a phone downstairs.”

  When at last we met, Danny explained the misun?derstanding to me.

  "Don't worry," he said to me. *' I have so many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from us British. You'll soon get used to all the funny things they say. Most of the time British and American people under?stand each other!"

My father and I loved each other. Yet I always 13      never hearing him put his 14      into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so 15      to tell a son something from the heart?

  My mouth turned dry,and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. "Daniel," I said, "If I could have picked, I would have picked you. " That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world 16      ,and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes,and I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I was 17      of was the stubble(短须) on his chin as his face pressed 18      mine. What I had said to Daniel was 19      . It was nothing. And yet,it was 20
