"Paige, go down to the office," said my teacher, There was a strange tone(语气)in her 1. I was never known to get into trouble, so I knew something was 2. It got even more 3 when my teacher said my mom was on the phone. Did something happen to my 4? I picked up the phone; I was barely breathing and my hands were 5. "Honey, there was a bank robbery today and your dad was 6 in the car chase that followed. He is doing okay, but shots were fired at his squad(特别行动小组)."
My dad has been a 7 for over 25 years. Every day of my life, I have lived with the 8 thought that something could happen to him. I have always been 9 to my dad, and I do not know what I would do if he was taken away from me, I am so 10 of his job, but I must admit it would be 11 if he had a normal job. On April 28, my dad got the call to go to a bank robbery. The robbery 12 a car chase. My dad was driving fast to 13 the robber. Over the radio, a fellow officer was yelling at him 14 him the robber was pointing a gun towards his squad. Three shots were fired. My clad narrowly escaped those bullets. All I had to hear was that my dad was involved in a shooting, and I was 15 his funeral (葬礼). I thought the day would never end.
My mom and I sat at home waiting for my dad to walk through the door. The second he did. I rushed up to him and gave him the biggest 16 in the world.
Life is about 17 it with the ones you love. What is the 18 of life if you do not have your friends and family? This experience has taught me a 19. I have learned to live my life to the 20 and never to take anyone or anything for granted.
