Soon Tommy’s parents, who had recently separated (分居), would arrive for a meeting on his failing schoolwork and      behavior. Neither parent knew that I had called up      . 
Tommy, an only child, had     been happy, cooperative, and an excellent student. How could I make his father and mother      that his recent failing grades       a brokenhearted child’s reaction to his respected parents’ separation and possible      ?
Tommy’s mother came in and     one of the chairs I had placed near my desk. Then the father       and was surprised to see his wife. They pointedly ignored each other.
As I gave a detailed     of Tommy’s behavior and schoolwork, I prayed for the       words to bring these two together to help them see what they were doing to their son.       somehow the words wouldn’t come.
I found a crumpled (弄皱的), tear-stained      in the back of Tommy’s desk. Writing covered both sides, a single      scribbled (乱写) over and over.

At last he folded the paper carefully and     his wife’s hand. She wiped the tears from her    and smiled up at him. I also couldn’t keep back tears, but    seemed to notice.
In this way I used the words to      that family. On the sheet of yellow copy paper       with the painful outpouring of a small boy’s troubled heart, it said, “Dear Mother; Dear Daddy; I love you. I love you. I love you.”
