問題詳情：

    It was a normal summer night. Humidity(潮濕) hung in the thick air. The only sound was my sister's heavy   16   from the bed next to me.

I couldn't go to   17  , partly because of my cold and partly because of my  18   for the next day. My mum had said that tomorrow was going to be a   19  .

Sweat stuck to my aching body. Finally, I gathered enough   20   to sit up. I looked out of my small window into the night. There was a big bright   21   hanging in the sky, giving off a magic glow.

My sister turned over as though she was as light as air. Why could she sleep soundly? Why wasn't she   22   too? Did she know about tomorrow?

I couldn't stand the   23   anymore, so I did what I always do to make myself feel better. I went to the   24   and picked up my toothbrush and toothpaste. Pouring the red paste onto the brush, I cleaned back and forth, up and down.

Then I walked downstairs to look for some   25   of movement, some life. Gladiator, my cat,   26   me as he meowed(貓叫)his sad song. He was on the old orange couch,   27   on his front legs, waiting for something to happen. He looked at me as if to say, “I’m   28  , pet me. I need a good hug." Even the couch begged me to sit on it.

In one movement I settled down onto the soft couch. This couch   29   my birth, my parents' marriage, and hundreds of other little  30   .

As I held Gladiator, my heart started beating heavily. My mind was   31   with questions: What's life? Am I really alive? Are you listening to me? Every time I moved my hand down Gladiator's body, I had a   32   thought; each touch sang a different song.

I forgot all about the   33   and the next day's surprise. The   34   was so full of warmth and silence that I sank into its arms. Falling asleep with the big cat in my arms, I felt all my worries   35   move away.
