Complete gap 1. Many years ago, I 1 ___ to spend New Year's Eve with my family. I 2 ___ new year with my parents but I had nowhere to go, and being with my family seemed preferable to being on my own. When my parents 3 ___ the door I could see they 4 ___ , and that they were genuinely happy to see me. I 5 ___ addicted to alcohol for 10 years, and for them, seeing me was the confirmation that I wasn't dead in an alley. Unfortunately, I 6 ___ nothing new or exciting to tell them, just the same sad old stories. I 7 ___ from crappy job to crappy job, being invariably sacked, and I 8 ___ to crime whenever I was out of money. Same old, same old. During dinner, I 9 ___ a few glassfuls of whisky. I 10 ___ something to ease the pain, because for the whole evening my sisters 11 ___ at me with such contempt that it was unbearable. My own sisters 12 ___ me. Then I had a moment of realisation; I 13 ___ that they would never hate me as much as I hated myself. When we finished dinner I 14 ___ one last glass of whisky. "I'm going into rehab," I said. My parents 15 ___ at me with some kind of hope. Parents never lose hope. But my sisters just 16 ___ down with disdain. They 17 ___ perfectly well that I had been in rehab centres many times before, and that this time wouldn't be different. But this time, it was different. After that day, I 18 ___ that look in my sisters' eyes every day, every time I 19 ___ to drink. Ten years later, on a New Year's Eve, I thanked my sisters because they 20 ___ my life. They kissed me with their new look in their eyes, the look of love.

Complete gap 19. Many years ago, I 1 ___ to spend New Year's Eve with my family. I 2 ___ new year with my parents but I had nowhere to go, and being with my family seemed preferable to being on my own. When my parents 3 ___ the door I could see they 4 ___ , and that they were genuinely happy to see me. I 5 ___ addicted to alcohol for 10 years, and for them, seeing me was the confirmation that I wasn't dead in an alley. Unfortunately, I 6 ___ nothing new or exciting to tell them, just the same sad old stories. I 7 ___ from crappy job to crappy job, being invariably sacked, and I 8 ___ to crime whenever I was out of money. Same old, same old. During dinner, I 9 ___ a few glassfuls of whisky. I 10 ___ something to ease the pain, because for the whole evening my sisters 11 ___ at me with such contempt that it was unbearable. My own sisters 12 ___ me. Then I had a moment of realisation; I 13 ___ that they would never hate me as much as I hated myself. When we finished dinner I 14 ___ one last glass of whisky. "I'm going into rehab," I said. My parents 15 ___ at me with some kind of hope. Parents never lose hope. But my sisters just 16 ___ down with disdain. They 17 ___ perfectly well that I had been in rehab centres many times before, and that this time wouldn't be different. But this time, it was different. After that day, I 18 ___ that look in my sisters' eyes every day, every time I 19 ___ to drink. Ten years later, on a New Year's Eve, I thanked my sisters because they 20 ___ my life. They kissed me with their new look in their eyes, the look of love.
