“I’m never allowed to have friends come to the house? Why, Mum?” James asked sadly, almost in _39__．
“I know it’s _40__ for you,” Mum said softly．“But I’m just worried other people might think we’re a little… strange．And then they would make fun of you．”
“No, they wouldn’t, Mum,” James protested．“We’re not _41__ at all．We’re just ordinary people．”
Mum sighed heavily．“To tell you the truth, James, my neck has been so painful that it’s given me a heavy _42__．And your poor father –he doesn’t feel _43__．He really needs a rest．”
“I can help, Mum!” James said．“_44__ I can make you and Dad feel better, can Brett come over? Please?”
“Well…”Mum began．
“Great! Thanks, Mum!” James almost shouted．“Just sit there, don’t move．” He rushed over to the kitchen drawer and _45__ what he needed –two spanners．“Hang on, Mum,” he said．“This won’t take a second．” After some _46__, James was finished．With a smile of _47__ on his face he said, “There! How does that feel?” “Oh, James,” Mum said．“That’s a much better! How did you do it?”
“Easy,” James said _48__．” Dad had tightened your neck bolts (螺栓) too much! I just_49__ them slightly! I learned that in robotic science at school．”
“What about you father? Can you ___ him?” asked Mum．
“I’ll try,” James replied．He __51_ up Dad’s hair at the back of his neck．and plugged the electric wire into Dad’s head．Then he turned the _52__on．Dad opened his eyes and _53__ immediately．“He just let his _54__run too low, that’s all,” James said, “Shall I tell Brett to come over straight after school tomorrow?”
“I guess so,” replied Mum．“Your friends will just have to _55__ that we are a very unusual family．Thanks, son!”
