The flower before me was dead. But I knew I must 3 it, or he might never leave. So I reached for the flower and replied, "Just what I need." But 4 placing the flower in my hand, he held it midair without reason. It was then that I noticed for the very first time, that the boy was blind.

Do you really care about your parents? Hearing this question, most people may give a quick answer "Of course, I do." But maybe you don't.
It is true that all parents can remember clearly when to c 1 their children's birthdays. However, it is a p 2 that few children know exactly when their parents birthdays are. Most parents can e 3 name the food their children favor. The other way round, some students don't know w 4 their parents like most of all.
Sometimes we can hear parents c 5 that their children don't talk with them as often as before. Children are growing and the generation gap（代沟）is widening. If you love your parents well, let them feel your love. Give them a birthday gift on their s 6 day, help them do some housework as often as possible, bear in mind what your parents like or don't like. Don't always say things a 7 your parents. Talk with them more often and understand them more.

with them .
Humans believed the 4 were a help to them in many ways. They helped humans to hunt. They could smell and hear dangers 5 people could. They helped keep people warm on cold nights. So it was useful to raise the dogs.
Now, there are many different kinds of dogs 6 they may look quite different from each other. Dog trainers think there are more than 400 different kinds in the
