                 When studying at the University of Pittsburgh, I went home to Virginia to see my family one

             weekend. “Look, I got a best sportsman  s jacket!” I said. Dad   1   took his eyes off the TV. I had

             wanted Dad to   2    me all my life, but nothing ever seemed   3   enough. I shook off my   4   and

             went back to Pitt. A month later, Mom called and said that Dad  s diabetes(糖尿病) had gotten worse.

             “I  m coming home,” I said. “You  re going to need help. ”

                 I   5    a college near home. Every Sunday, I went home and helped Dad. To my sadness, he

               6   everything I did. “It  s not you,” Mom explained to me. “What   7     him makes him feel bad

             about himself. His anger was   8   his frustration(挫败). ” I was so surprised to hear that. Now I saw

             his pain went beyond the   9   pain, and that made me try harder to   10    him.

                 One day we were watching a football game. “I  ll bet you $2 million that Dallas wins,” I said. Dad

             looked at me. “You don  t have $2 million,” he   11  . After that, every time we watched the game,

             we made   12     bets. Dad laughed more easily and he was more willing to accept my help. Our

             relationship was   13  .

                 That spring, a week before the National Football League draft ( 选拔), we had a party at our

             house. After everyone had gone, Dad and I were sitting in the living room. He caught my eye. “ It

             doesn  t   14   if you make it or not,” he said. “ I  m proud of you. ” Maybe our relationship would

             never be perfect, but I would never   15   that he wanted the best for me.
