Time changes everyone. My grandparents slowly began to forget small things, and it made me feel worried. I didn’t want to lose the happy    21    with them, so I planned to do something for them.

My grandfather is 72 and last month my grandmother celebrated her 70th birthday. I first noticed they had difficulty    22    things when I visited their apartment for dinner — my grandmother forgot a fish in the oven and burnt it. The burnt fish still sat on a plate when we    23    it. But I didn’t think much of it, since everyone    24    forgets things.

Another time we planned to go out for dinner. We told    25    to meet us at the station, but he and grandma weren’t there upon our arrival. Mum texted them, and grandpa said they were at    26    waiting — they remembered the dinner but forgot the time. It turned out they almost forgot simple things, so I started thinking how to    27    them.

Though my memory is good, I    28    things to bring to school the next day before I go to bed. I told my grandparents to write down things, and no matter how small a thing was, take notes of it. They nodded. Then, I talked to our school nurse. She told me that eating fresh fruit and fish is    29    our memory. I wrote the    30    in a notebook and gave it to them.

I also searched online and found staying    31    helps. They used to love dancing, so I found a club in the neighbourhood — now they go there often and find    32    in it. Several weeks later, their memory became much    33   . They even make jokes about their old forgetfulness now, and it’s    34    to see them doing well.

We can’t stop time, but we can reduce (减轻) the worries of our elders with our love. Time may take away some of their memories, but our love will stay with them. I should    35    more time with my grandparents and help them more. Every small act of care tells them they are never alone.
