  In Mr. Allen’ class, which is a high school of the New Jersey, all the students have to “get married”. However, the wedding

  21

  sometimes become so noisy -- Even the two students getting married often begin to laugh -- that the loud laughter drowns out the

  22

  of the “minister”.

  The teacher, Mr. Allen, wants young students to understand that there are many changes that must take place after marrying and believes that the

  23

  for these psychological and financial changes should be understood before people marry.

  Mr. Allen not only introduces his students to main problems faced in marriage such as illness or being out of work, but also

  24

  them to the difficult and particular problems they will face every day. He wants to introduce young people to all the worries that can bring the

  25

  point to a marriage. He even makes his students know the problem of

  26

  and the fact that divorced men must pay child support money for their children and sometimes pay their wives every month.

  It has been not easy for some students to see the problems that a

  27

  couple often faces.

  28

  they took the course, they had not worried much about the problems of marriage. However, both students and parents feel that Mr. Allen’ s course is

  29

  and have favored the course publicly. Their statements and letters supporting the class have asked the school to

  30

  the course again.

       That was it. That was the feeling I'd had ever since I'd first seen the mountains of my new home. Again, my  55  would change with just a few simple words.

       "Would you like to come to my home tomorrow? Someone should teach you which plant you should and shouldn't touch."

  I was tired and hungry after a long day of work. When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked up at me and said, “I

  41

  you.” I did not

  42

  what to say, and I just stood there, looking

  43

  at him. My first

  44

  was that he

  45

  need help with his homework. Then I asked, “What was that all

  46

  ?”

  “Nothing,” he said, “My teacher said we should tell our parents we love them and

  47

  what they say.”

  The next day I called his teacher to

  48

  more about what my son said and how the other parents had reacted( 反应) . “Most of the fathers had the

  49

  response as you did,” the teacher said, ”When I first

  50

  that we try this, I asked the children

  51

  they thought their parents

  52

  say. Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble.”

  Then the teacher

  53

  , “ I want my students to know that feeling love is an important part of

  54

  . I’m trying to tell them it’s too bad that we don’t express our feelings. A boy

  55

  tell his father or mother he loves him.” The teacher understands that sometimes it is

  56

  for some of us to say something that is good for us to say.

  That evening when my son

  57

  to me, I took him in my arms and held on for an

  58

  moment, saying, “Hey, I love you,

  59

  .” I don’t know if saying that made

  60

  of us healthier, but it did feel pretty good.
