I've spent most of my career as a traveling salesman, and so I know that 36 is an occupational disease．But one year, my 37 gave me the cure for my homesickness．
It had black bright eyes, a red bow tie and orange feet—a stuffed penguin（企鹅）that 38 about five inches tall．Attached to its left wing 39 a little sign with the hand-painted declaration I Love My Dad! ．I 40 the penguin at once on my table．
On my next trip, I put the penguin in my suitcase．That night when I 41 home, my daughter Jeanine was 42 because the penguin had disappeared．Honey, he's here with me, I explained, I brought him 43 .
44 , the penguin came with me—as necessary as my briefcase．And we 45 along the way．In Albuquerque, I checked into a 46 , dropped my bag and ran to a meeting．When I returned, the maid had 47 the bed and stood the penguin on the pillow．
One night, I discovered the penguin 48 , and after a mad phone call, I learned I' d 49 it in my previous hotel room, 50 it had been rescued by a maid．I 51 a hundred miles to get it, and when I arrived at midnight, the penguin was waiting at the front desk．In the hotel lobby（大厅）, other tired business travelers were 52 at the reunion of my penguin and me---I think with a bit of 53 ．
Jeanine is in college now, and I don't travel 54 . The penguin sits on my table, a reminder that love is a wonderful traveling companion．All those years on 55 , it was the one thing I never left home without．
