Question

  It was a(n) 3        time in Daniel's life a step from college into the adult world. I wanted to 4        him some meaningful words. But 5        came from my lips (嘴边) .I stood quietly looking into the searching eyes of my son.

  It was 6        to say something to my son. I knew this was not the first time I had let such a moment 7        . When he was five I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergartea I felt he was very 8        as the bus came near. I saw his face turn red as the bus 9        . He looked at me as he did now.

  My father and I loved each other. Yet I always regretted (后悔) never hearing him put his feelings into words and 10        having the memory of that moment. Why is it so hard to tell his 11        something from his heart? My mouth turned dry and I knew I would be able to say only a few words 12        .

  "Daniel " I said "if]could have picked I would have picked you. " I wasn't sure whether he understood 13        I meant or not. Then he came toward me and threw his 14        around me. For a moment the world and all the other people 15        and there was just Daniel and me in our home by the sea.
