Bella arrived home late from school that day. When she walked past her mother’s room she found her mum was ________ in bed, and seemed to be very weak.

Bella entered her room and heard the cries from her little sister. She knew her dad was expect her to ________ her sister. And she also had to prepare meals for the whole family ________ her mum did before. Bella thought it was not ________ because she also had schoolwork to do, just like everyone else in her class. Why did she have to be the grown-up?

When she got out of the room, she saw her ________ sitting at the kitchen table, lonely and tired. Suddenly, something happened inside Bella. She ________ that her father, as well as a husband, must be really ________.

Then she heard a deep voice from her father, “Make the ________, will you, Bella?”

She was going to find a(n) ________ to meet her friends, but she stopped and said to herself, “It is a ________ time for everyone in our family. I guess making meals is just what I can do to help. “Then she ________ went into the kitchen and began peeling (削) potatoes.

“OK, Daddy.” said Bella. “Everything will be all right and we can ________.” At the moment, she saw a smile on her father’s face. She felt ________— grown-up, somehow. It was really good to ________ a smile to her father’s face, even for only a moment.

“Daddy, whatever happens, we will be OK. Right?”

“Yes, we will. If we ________ each other, we’ll always be all right.”

They both smiled at each other over the table.
