My mother often asked me, “what is the most important part of the body?” Through the years I would guess at   1  I thought was the correct answer. When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as humans, so I said, “My   2 , Mommy.”  She said, “No. Many people are deaf. But you   3  thinking about it and I will ask you again soon.”
Then last year, my Grandpa   4 . Everybody was hurt. Everybody was crying. My Mom looked at me when it was our   5  to say our final goodbye to grandpa. She asked me,  “Do you know the most important body part yet, my dear?”  I was shocked   6  she asked me this now. I always thought this was a game between her and me. She saw the confusion(迷惑) on my face and told me, “This   7  is very important. It shows that you have   8  lived your life”. I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, “My dear, the most important body part is your shoulder.” I asked,  “Is it because it holds up your head?”
She replied, “No, it is because it can hold the head of a friend or loved one when they   9 . Everybody needs a shoulder to cry on sometime in life, my dear. I only hope that you have enough love and   10  that you will have a shoulder to cry on when you need it.”

My now 7-year-old grandson, who lives 100 miles away, has kept my phone number in his mind since he was 4. Since then, he has been  1  me every night before he goes to bed to tell me about his day or just to say “Good night, Grandma.”
He also often calls me at other times during the day just to  2  a happy or sad moment. Many times he’s playing a basketball with one hand, or laughing with a friend about something that I  3  quite understand, or crying about something he may or may not want to talk about while I’m on the other end of the phone. I just listen and empathize (同情) or laugh with him—just share his current (当前的)  4 . I always let him control the  5  , and the time he’s on the phone with me. Many times I just listen to him play, or play games we’ve made up together that we can play over the   6  .   
The only time I take control of the  7  is when he’s ready to say goodbye at night. Often there are four special   8  I say to him every night. One night I thought maybe he was tired to hear those, so I didn’t say them. He  9  called me back and told me that I forgot to say those sentences! I haven’t missed saying them since then!
My friends all know that he is the most important for me.  10  I’m in church(教堂), or some place where I really can’t take his call, I always politely excuse myself and talk to him, even if it’s just for a minute to tell him I’ll call him back in a few minutes.
He knows that he takes first place in my heart.
