問題詳情：

“Remember, your father is only one year 61 (old) than you.” That was Mum’s usual excuse when Dad said the wrong things or did something 62 (fool).

Dad quitted drinking exactly one year before I was born. He joined a group of other people. He said they 63 (stop) drinking, too. I loved my dad 64 I hated the way his weekly meetings took him away 65 me. It seemed that they were more important to him than I was. But with my birthday coming up I thought Dad would make an 66 (except). “Can’t you miss it just this time? Saturday is my birthday! ” I begged him but 67 (refuse). He said “I am chairing the meeting this Saturday. We will have your party on Sunday.”

Saturday evening I sat on my bed, 68 (feel) sorry for myself. Dad started to leave, then paused and said,” Why not come with me together tonight? It’s an open meeting. All are welcome”. 69 would I do at a meeting? But maybe I needed to see why something Dad every week mattered so much.

After we arrived, Dad announced the the theme of the meeting was going to be gratitude. He told his story a bout giving up smoking. Later, a man70 (call) Dave also told his story. Only then did I know it was Dad that saved his life from drinking. Showing up week after week and meeting with people, Dad was changing lives. Shame washed over me.
