"It was too difficult, Dad. I'm really sorry," Ali said sadly.
" 1 yourself. You can do it," Mr Yagoob replied.
Mr Yagoob worked in a bank and wanted his son to become a 2 of a top business college (商学院). However, Ali had no 3 in Maths. What he really loved was 4 and he dreamed of becoming a writer in the future. But, at the same time, he didn't want to make his father 5 .
To his sadness, Ali had failed the entrance exams(入学考试) twice. That night, Mr Yagoob asked Ali to 6 a third time. Ali wanted to talk about his dream of becoming a writer, 7 he found he didn't have the courage(勇气) to say anything.
Later that night, Ali called his 8 Zain. Zain decided to 9 . So, the following day, he went to talk to Mr Yagoob 10 . Zain told Mr Yagoob about Ali's 11 for writing and his worry about letting his father down. Mr Yagoob was very sorry that he knew 12 about Ali's interest and dream.
"I'm 13 Ali has a true friend. Thanks, Zain," Mr Yagoob said. "I also wanted to be a writer, but my parents didn't 14 . Now I won't make the same 15 as they did." From that day on, Mr Yagoob tried his best to help Ali. They worked together to make Ali's dream come true.
