三，完形填空(满分20分)

　 　I was very tired and hungry after a long day of work.

　　 When I walked into the living room my 12-year-old son looked 36 at me and said, “I love you.” I didn’t know what to say. 37 several seconds all I could do was stand there and 38 　at him. My first thought was that he must need 39 with his homework or he was trying to 40 me for some news.

　　 Finally I asked , “What was that all about ?”

　　 “Nothing .” He said, “My teacher said we should 41 our parents that we love them and see what they say. It’s an 42 ”

　　 The next day I called his teacher to find out more about this “experiment” and how the other parents had 43.

　　 “Basically, most of the fathers had the 44 reaction as you did.” The teacher said , “When I first 45 that we should try this , I asked the children what they thought their parents would say. Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble . ” “The _46__ is ,” the teacher explained , “feeling loved is an important part of 47 . It’s something all human beings 48 . What I am trying to tell the children is that it’s too 49 that we all don’t express those feelings. A boy should be 50 to tell his dad that he loves him. ”

　　 The teacher, a middle-aged man , understands how 51 it is for some of us to say the things that would be good for us.

　　 When my son came to me that evening, I hold on to him for an extra second . And just 52 he pulled away, I said in my deepest , most manly voice , “Hey, I love you , too.”　 I don’t know whether saying that made either of us healthier, 53 it did feel pretty good . Maybe next time one of my children says, “I love you .” it would not take me a whole 54 to think of the right 55.
