(2023·江苏省南京市第一中学高三一模)Lately, my 90yearold mother has been sleepier and sleepier. This is very strange and worrying. At the same time, my 92yearold father has been suffering his own health problems. It is a terrible thing to see my father struggle to get my mother to talk, say something, when she doesn't have the energy.

The other day, I recalled how my mother used to visit a woman named Mrs Demopolis, a Greek immigrant, who made the best baklava (果仁蜜饼) in the world! She gave lessons on baking it to my mother. Also, my mother often baked baklava at home. As I spoke of this over the phone, my silent mother perked_up and said how much she'd like to have one again.

Now, they live in Florida and I live in Wales, UK, so I can't go and bring her some baklava or even make some in her kitchen. But what I did suggest was that my father could buy some baklava at a Greek restaurant and I could do the same, and wouldn't it be fun to eat our baklava at exactly the same time and so, be together sharing the moment and the pleasure? My parents loved the idea and we decided to do it.

Two days later we both had our baklava and shared the experience. It meant a lot to my parents, and to me, to do this. My mother said she wanted to do this again, maybe with another food or even baklava again! Why not? And as she only keeps losing weight instead of gaining, it is good for her to find foods that appeal to her appetite. It is becoming harder to find ways to communicate over the phone, but this is at least a very good way to do so.
