Question

My dad was a fisherman. He worked hard and stayed out until he caught enough    36   to feed the family nearly every day. When the weather was bad he would    37   me to school. An old truck was used in his fishing business. When we got to the school, he would give me a big   38   on the face and tell me to be a good    39  . It was so embarrassing for me. I was 12 years old, and my dad would still kiss me goodbye!

I remember the day when I decided I was too    40   for a goodbye kiss. When we got to the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean (傾斜) toward me, but I put my hand up and   41  , “No, Dad.” It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way. He had a surprised look on his face for a long time, and his    42  started to be wet. He turned and looked out of the windshield (擋風(fēng)玻璃). “You’re   43  ,” he said.“You are a big boy—a man. I won’t kiss you any more.”

It wasn’t long after that when my dad went out to   44   and never came back. It was a day when most of the fishermen stayed at home except Dad. He had a big family to feed
