Red roses were her favorites, her name was also Rose. And every year her husband sent them, tied with pretty bows. The year he died, the roses were still 26 to her door.
Each year he sent her roses, and the 27 would always say, “I love you even more this year, than last year on this day.” My love for you will always 28 , with every passing year. “She knew this was the last time 29 the rose would appear. Her loving husband did not know that he would 30 . he always liked to do things early. Then, if he got too busy, 31 would work out fine.”
A year went by, and it was 32 to live without her mate. Then, the very hour, as on Valentines before, the doorbell rang, and there were roses, sitting by her door. She brought the roses 33 , calling the florist shop. The owner answered, and she asked him , if he would explain, why would someone do this to her, 34 her such pain?
“I know your husband passed away, more than a year ago,” The owner said, “I knew you’d 35 , and you would want to know. “ “ The flowers you received today, were 36 in advance.” “Your husband always planned ahead, he left nothing to chance.”
She thanked him and 37 the phone, her tears now flowing hard. Her fingers shaking, as she slowly reached to 38 the card. Inside the card, she saw that he had written her a note. This is what he wrote: “Hello my love, I know it’s been a year 39 I’ve been gone, I hope it hasn’t been too hard for you to overcome.” “I know it must be lonely, and the pain is very 40 . for if it was the other way, I know how I would feel. The love we shared 41 everything so beautiful in life. I loved you more than words can say.”
“You were my friend and lover, I know it’s only been a year, 42 please try not to grieve. I want you to be happy, 43 when you shed your tears. That is why the roses will be sent to you for years.”
“ When you get these 44 , think of all the 45 that we had together, and how both of us were blessed. I have always loved you and I know I always will. My love, you must go on, you have some living still.”

Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are 36 reasons for this.
Some people blame the fact 37 we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, _38 fried chicken and ice cream, 39 low price. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups 40 seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there 41 fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.
There is another argument that 42 parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I _43 this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate 44 healthy food, or are always allowed to choose 45 they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this 46 throughout their lives.
There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days 47 very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they 48 home, they sit in front of 49 or their computers and play computer games. 50 is this an unhealthy pastime (消遣),it also gives them time to eat more 51 food. 52 they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.
The above 53 the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to 54 young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and 55eating habits.
