#005, Questions 1041 to 1050, VOCABULARY OF PRESIDENT BUSH

FROM THE PROCLAMATION MADE BY PRESIDENT MR. GEORGE BUSH, ON JUNE 12, 2008.
OCCASION: FATHER'S DAY.

Supply the missing letter in the blanks:

Fathers play a _nique (1041) and irrepla_eable (1042) part in the lives of their children and pass along values that help children grow into responsible adults. By providing their sons and daughters with a positive example, fathers help give their children the necessary foundation they need to make wise decisions throughout their lives. Fathers s_rive (1043) to inspire their children to lead lives of inte_rity (1044), honor, and purpose, and they pray for wisdom and the strength to give their children the love and support they need to ach_eve (1045) their dreams.

All Americans are thankful for the extra_rdinary (1046) efforts of our Nation's fathers, stepfathers, grandfathers, and guardians. Their de_otion (1047) and encouragement as men_ors (1048), providers, and role models help strengthen their families and our country. We are especially grateful for the fathers who serve in our Nation's Armed Forces. These de_icated (1049) fathers protect liberty so that all children can have a more promising future. We pray for the safe return of all those serving overseas, and we thank the fathers who support sons and daughters who are defending (1050) our freedom around the globe.

BLOGGER'S VIEWS
*Do all the fathers deserve the thanks? Are there black sheep?
*How about the role of the stepfathers? Whenever I think of stepfathers, immediately my mind is struck with the cruelty of the stepfathers in Charles Dickens' novel "Oliver Twist". Then, there may be exceptionally good step-fathers. But how many?
*"Grateful to" might have been more appropriate than "grateful for".
