My best friend, Tom, and I live in a senior-citizen apartment in a lovely small town. Tom is a ten-year-old dog and I am a sixty-nine-year-old lady .
Years ago, I     36      when I retired I would get a dog to     37      my golden years. From the very beginning, Tom has always been     38_ and I never have to tell him anything more than once. He is extremely     39     and always puts back the toys where they were after     40    .He is a wonderful panion. We sometimes play a     41    together. He does many amusing things that make me laugh. As a result, I enjoy his    42    .
One afternoon, Tom started acting     43    . I was sitting on the floor playing with him,     44    he started sniffing at the right side of my chest. He had never done anything like this before, suddenly he threw his entire    45    at the right side of my chest, and I cried in    46    .
Soon after this, I felt a lump(肿块). After X-rays and tests, doctors told me I     47    cancer. When cancer started, for an unknown     48    , a wall of calcium(钙化壁) built. Then the lump or cancer _49     itself to the wall. When Tom     50    on me, the force broke the lump away from the calcium wall, which made me      51    the lump. Before that, I couldn’t see or feel it, so there was no way for me to know it was there.
I had a plete      52     and the cancer did not spread. The doctors told me if the cancer had gone unfound even six more months, it would have been too late.
Was Tom     53     of just what he was doing? I’ll never really know. What I do
know is that I’ m glad I made a promise to_ 54     my golden years with this wonderful creature---- for Tom not only shares his life with me; he has made sure that I will be     55    to share my life with him.
