问题     My father was【C1】______ a strong man who loved being active, but a terrible illness【C2】______ all that away. Now he can no longer walk. And he must sit quietly in a chair all day. Even talking is【C3】______. One night, I went to visit him with my sisters, we started talking about life, and I told them about one of my【C4】______. I said that we must always give things up as we grow—our youth, our beauty, our friends—but it always【C5】______ that after we give something up, we gain something new in its place. Then suddenly my father spoke up. He said, "But, Peter. I gave up【C6】______! What did I gain?" I thought and thought, but I could not think of anything to say.
    【C7】______ he answered his own question: "I gained the love of my family. " I looked at my sisters, and saw tears in their eyes, along with hope and thankfulness.
    I was also【C8】______ by his words. After that, when I began to fell irritated at someone, I would remember his words and become【C9】______ if he could replace his great pain with a feeling of love for others, then I should be able to give up my small irritations. In this way, I learned the power of acceptance from my father.
    Sometimes I【C10】______ what other things I could learned from him if I had listened more carefully when I was a boy. For now, though, I am grateful for this gift.
【C1】
