As a young man, Al was a skilled artist. He had a wife and two fine sons. One night, his older son developed a severe stomachache. Thinking it was only some ______ intestinal(肠内的) disorder, neither Al nor his wife took the condition very seriously. But the boy ______ suddenly that night.

Knowing the death could have been ______ if he had only realized the seriousness of the situation, Al's emotional health became worse under the huge burden of his ______. To make matters worse, his wife ______ him a short time later, leaving him alone with his six-year-old younger son. The hurt and pain of the two ______ were more than Al could handle, and he ______ to alcohol. In time Al became an alcoholic.

____ the alcoholism progressed, Al began to lose everything he ______-his home, his land, his art objects, everything. ______ Al died alone in a San Francisco motel room.

When I heard of Al's death, I thought that Al's life was a complete _______.

As time went by, I began to re-evaluate (重新评价) my earlier judgment. I knew Al's now ______ son, Ernie. He is one of the kindest, most caring, most loving men I have ever known. I ______ Ernie with his children and saw the free flow of love between them. I knew that kindness and caring had to come from somewhere.

I hadn't heard Ernie talk much about his ______. One day I worked up my ______ to ask him. "I'm really ______ by something," I said. "I know your father was ______ the only one to raise you. What on earth did he do to make you become such a special person?"

Ernie sat quietly and ______ for a few moments. Then he said, "From my earliest ______ as a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, 'I love you, son.'"

Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to ______ Al as a failure. He had not left any material possessions behind. But he had been a kind loving father, and he left behind one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.
