Luke didn’t know what to do. He wanted to yell at Kyle, his        , because Kyle continued to         with his mom, Jane. She didn’t demand very much from him---“Study hard, and get the best        you can,” she told him. She tried to get it into his head that she didn’t have the         for his college education. Not a cent could be expected!          studying harder, Kyle spent hour after hour playing video games on his computer. He always waited until the last minute to study for school           , and stayed up all night cramming(强记硬背) for them. When Jane tried to         him that he needed good grades to get a        , he would turn a deaf ear to her or even get angry. He said it was her        to take care of him financially          he graduated from college.
“Where did he get that         ?” Luke asked. “You’ve        him for 10 years all by yourself. You don’t          him a thing. He should be glad you haven’t kicked him out of the apartment. When I was in the eleventh grade, my father made it           to me that when I graduated from high school, I was expected to leave home.            Kyle thinks you have to pay his way through college!”
Jane would          Luke to talk to Kyle. “He says you’re not his father, so why should he have to listen to you?”
“Well, his father’s dead. He should appreciate that I’m        to try to help him. ”Luke said.
“Kyle will be able to learn to accept your help and advice           . But before that, Luke, we need to try hard to get him to accept you in his heart, close to the        of his own father.”
“I agree and we surely have every confidence in him.” said Luke.
“Yes. And in           , too!” Jane reminded him.
