A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eye.
One 36 , when the boy was around two, the husband saw an opened medicine bottle. It was 8:30 am and he was almost 37 for work, so he asked his wife to 38 the lid on the bottle and put it in the cupboard. Busy in the kitchen, the mother 39 forgot the matter. Seeing the bottle, the boy picked it up playfully and 40 the liquid in it. It was a medicine 41 for adults to be taken in small dosages （剂量）. When the boy fell down, the mother hurried him to a(n) 42 where he died. The mother was terrified. How could she 43 her husband?
When the heartbroken father returned and saw the dead son, he 44 his wife and said just four words. What do you think those four words were? The husband just said, “I 45 you, darling.”
