The end of my sophomore (大学二年级) year was near. One day, Mom called me, hoping my summer break would be spent with grandparents. They were both in their 1 , and I knew they really needed help around the farm.
So I packed my car after the final exam and started my life on the farm. Weeks passed. I 2 daily work with Grandpa gradually. Grandma often told me stories about her childhood, family and the early years after she and Grandpa had married.
On the last Saturday in June, I went fishing with my grandfather. 3 , we saw one of the swans was dead by the pond. Grandpa had given the pair of swans to Grandma on their fiftieth anniversary of marriage. “Why don’t we buy another one?” I suggested. But grandpa said, “no... it’s not that 4 . Because swans mate for life. There’s 5 we can do for the one that’s left. He has to work it out for himself.” A few days later, we drove by the pond and found the other swan lying near the same place where we had found the first one. It, too, was dead.
Then July 3 came. That was the day Grandma 6 . She died of a stroke (中风) suddenly that morning. The funeral was held the next day. Grandpa had insisted on 7 it as soon as possible.
After the funeral, Grandpa asked all the people to get back to their own lives. Grandpa was not a man who could share his sadness with others, and we were all worried about him. During the rest of the summer, we stayed busy working. I thought there was something different about Grandpa but couldn’t tell exactly 8 it was.
September was near, and I had to leave. 9 I drove down the driveway, he waved to me and then walked to the gate to start the morning check.
One and a half months later, Mom called me at university on a windy 10 day to tell me Grandpa had died. He died of a stroke, the same as Grandma.
