I’ll call my father tomorrow which is Father’s Day． Every other 1 I call，Morn answers and Dad quietly picks up the 2 and listens in to our conversation．But 3 Father’s Day, we will talk a little about my job，my family and the weather． Then Dad will say，“Thanks for 4 ,son ,”and hang up．

5 it is almost summer, every year after our Father’s Day talk，I’m left with images of my father and the cold．As a boy I watched him out of the kitchen window 6 our lane（道） of snow with the first snow blower（旋转式清雪机）． First，he’d do our walk and then he’d blow the lanes of the shut-ins（不能出门的病人），the single morns，and poorer folks， 7 could not seem to get it together．

I 8 him and learned from him，but I 9 not remember my father and me ever having much of a conversation．Nothing that he 10 shared、vim me in a heart-felt way showed that he may be 11 ，upset or ready to climb the wall．

The last time I saw my father, I asked him to go out for a 12 with me．The sun was setting over the lake and I said，“Come on．We don’t 13 much time together any more． Let’s go． ”Father looked at me meaningfully and said，“ 14 ． ”

That visit to my father was about a week before September 11 th．I was near Ground Zero on that day and for five hours 15 the first plane struck, my family did not know of my whereabouts（下落）． 16 for me I arrived back at our home in Brooklyn．My biggest 17 was that my wife told me my father was 18 to drive from his home on Lake Huron to Ground Zero to find me．

To love the remote father is to face this paradox（矛盾）：to accept his refusal of my 19 for a sunset walk with his worry that I might have died with thousands of others last September； to deeply know, if not accept，that is his way, the way a man of 10 words，snowblower of shut-ins and lonely hearts，can best show a father’s love．
