問題詳情:
In Kabul, it rarely rained in the summer. Blue skies stood tall and far, the sun like a branding iron blazing the back of your neck. Creeks 21 Hassan and I skipped stones all spring turned dry, and rickshaws(人力車) 22 dust when they roared by.
Summer meant long school days sweating in tightly packed, 23 air-conditioned classrooms learning The Koran(《古蘭經》),struggling 24 those tongue-twisting Arabic words. A hot breeze brought with it the smell of shit from across the schoolyard, rolling 25 around the worn basketball hoop.
But it rained the afternoon Dad took Ali and Hassan to the bus station. Gloomy clouds 26 , pained the 27 iron gray. Within minutes, sheets of rain were sweeping in, the steady flow of water swelling in my 28 .
Dad 29 offered to drive them to Bamiyan himself, 30 Ali refused. Through the rain-soaked 31 of my bedroom, I watched Ali drag the lone suitcase carrying all of their 32 to Dad’s car. Hassan carried his mattress, rolled tightly and tied with a rope, 33 his back. He’d left all of his toys behind in the empty house—I discovered them the next day, piled in a corner just like the birthday presents in my room.
I saw Dad shut the truck. Already 34 , he walked to the driver’s side. 35 in and said something to Ali in the backseat, perhaps the last effort to change Ali’s mind. They talked that way a while, Dad getting soaked, bending over, one arm on the roof of the car. But when he straightened, I saw in his drooping shoulders that the life I had known 36 I’d been born was over. Dad 37 in. The headlights came on and 38 the rain. I watched Dad’s car pull away, taking with it the person 39 first spoken word had been my name.
I stepped back and all I saw was rain through the window that looked like melting 40 .
