My crippled（瘸腿的）grandmother was dancing. I stood in the living room doorway, looking at her beautiful movements, completely        . Do you know she'd had her accident. I had read that in an old newspaper article．
‘‘So．．．Your leg? I mean,         did your leg heal(治愈)?"
“To tell you the truth my legs have been well all my life,” she said．
“But I don't understand!” I said, “Your dancing career．．．You         all these years?”
‘‘Very much so, and for a very good        .”
She thought for a while and then continued. “Your grandfather and I were talking about engagement（订婚）        he had to go to war. I was so afraid of losing him that the only way I could stay normal was to dance. I put all my heart          practicing and I became very good. The public loved me, but all I could feel worried about not knowing whether the love of my life would          return. One day a letter came, There were only three sentences: “I have lost my leg. I am no longer a        man and now give you back your freedom. It is best you forget about me.”
“I made my decision there and then. I traveled away from the city. When I returned I had bought        a stick. I told everyone I had been in a car crash and that my leg would never completely heal again. No one doubted the story l had learned to limp（一瘸一拐地走）. And I made sure the first person to hear of my accident was a         I knew well. Then I went to the hospital. The nurses pushed your grandfather outside in his         ．I took a deep breath, leaned on my stick and limped to him.”
I showed him newspaper articles of my accident. “There is a whole life waiting for us out there! But I am not going to         you. You are going to walk yourself.”
I limped a few steps toward him and showed him what I'd taken out of my pocket. “Now show me you are          a man.” I said．He bent to take his stick from the ground and struggled(挣扎) out of that wheelchair．He managed it on his own and walked to me and never sat in a wheelchair          in his life.”
“What did you show him?” I had to know. Grandma looked at me and smiled. “Two engagement rings, of course. I had bought them the day          he left for the war and I was not going to waste them on any other man.”
