She said, "I love you, but I know this other woman loves you too, and she would love to spend some time with you.”The other woman that my wife wanted me to visit was my MOTHER, who has been a widow for 19 years, but the demands of my work and my three children had made it possible to visit her only occasionally. That night T called to invite her to go out fbr dinner and a movie. "What's wrong, are you well?” she asked. My mother is the type of woman who suspects that a late night call or a surprise invitation is a sign of bad news.“I thought that it would be pleasant to spend some time with you J I responded. "Just the two of us." She thought about it fbr a moment, and then said, "I would like that very much.”That Friday after work, as I drove over to pick her up, I was a bit nervous. When I arrived at her house, I noticed that she, too, seemed to be nervous about our date. She waited in the door with her coat on. We went to a restaurant that, although not elegant, was very nice and cozy. My mother took my arm as if she were the First Lady. After we sat down, I had to read the menu. Her eyes could only read large print. Halfway through the entries, I lifted my eyes and saw Mom sitting there staring at me. A nostalgic smile was on her lips.During the dinner, we had an agreeable conversationnothing extraordinary but catching up on recent events of each other*s life. We talked so much that we missed the movie.As we arrived at her house later, she said JT11 go out with you again, but only if you let me invite you." I agreed.A few days later, my mother died of a massive heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn't have a chance to do anything for her. Some time later, I received an envelope with a copy of a restaurant receipt from the same place mother and I had dined. An attached note said: "I paid this bill in advance. I wasn't sure that I could be there; but nevertheless, I paid for two plates one for you and the other for your wife. You will never know what that night meant for me. I love you, son."At that moment, I understood the importance of saying in time: "I LOVE YOU” and to give our loved ones the time that they deserve. Nothing in life is more important than your family. Give them the time they deserve, because these things cannot be put off tilF'some other time”.24. When the mother heard it was the son's call, she was.A. surprisedB. worriedC. suspiciousD. puzzled25.

This sounds simple, but you have to take some time to think it over.I said invest.I did not say give.Let me explain.Purely giving material things to your siblings （兄弟姐妹）and friends may appear to be the right decision. You love them, and they were always there for you growing up, so it's only right that they should share your success and all that comes with it. You buy them a car, a big house, and pay all of their bills. You want them to live a comfortable life, right?But the day will come when you realize that as much as you believed you were doing
