完形填空（一）I was tired and hungry after a long day of work. When I walked into the living room, my 12-year-old son looked up at me and said, “I love you.” I didnt know 1 to say. For several seconds all I could do was to stand there and stare 2 at him. My first thought was that he must need 3 with his homework or he was trying to prepare me for some news. Finally I asked, “What was that all about?” “Nothing.” he said, “My teacher said we should 4 our parents that we love them and see what they say. Its an experiment.”The next day I called his 5 to find out more about this “experiment” and how the other parents had reacted. “Basically, most of the fathers had the same reaction as you did.” The teacher said, “When I first 6 we try this, I asked the children what they thought their parents would say.
