To a chorus of angry shouts and insults, a 【C1】______ (wealth)Chicago couple have been charged with child cruelty after leaving their daughters, aged four and nine, alone at home while they spent Christmas on the Acapulco, Mexico.
Acapulco, is a city, municipality and major seaport in the state of Guerrero on the Pacific coast of Mexico, 380 kilometres south of Mexico city. Acapulco is located on a deep, semicircular bay and has been a port since the early colonial period of Mexico history. It is a port of call for shipping and cruise lines 【C2】______(run)between Panama and San Francisco, California, the United States. Acapulco is in the state, far larger than the state capital Chilpancingo. Acapulco is also Mexico’s largest beach and resort city.
The city is one of Mexico’s oldest beach resorts, 【C3】______ came into prominence in the 1940s through 1960s as a getaway for Hollywood stars and millionaires. Acapulco is still famous and still attracts many tourists, although most are now from Mexico itself.
The couple enjoyed themselves in the city during Christmas. David Schoo, aged forty-five, and his wife Sharon, aged thirty-five, were handcuffed by waiting police, surrounded by reporters and insulted by onlookers after their return 【C4】fl______from Mexico landed at Chicago’s O’Hare airport. The couple were immediately taken to jail, where they’ll stay until their trial.
Police said the daughters, Diana, aged four, and Nicole, aged nine, had been left on their own in the Schoos’ suburban Chicago home on 20 December when their parents set off for their ten-day 【C5】ho______. Before they left, the couple had pinned up a note in the kitchen telling the girls exactly what to wear on snowy days. It also included a strict 【C6】______ (remind)to Diane and Nicole about the time they should go to bed. They even remembered to tell them when and where to leave the Christmas cookies for Santa Claus.
There is clear evidence to show that the Schoos were quite determined to have an uninterrupted , trouble-free holiday, even if this meant neglecting their children. " Who could ever think that as parents they would go away to enjoy themselves for ten days?" The elder daughter Nicole told a local television station, " For a long time I felt really bad, wondering what they were doing and where they were, and how I’d get 【C7】______touch with them if I needed to. "
"How could anybody ever do this to their kids especially at Christmas time?" asked Connie Stadelmann, a neighbour. As soon as the Schoos’ plane landed, police boarded it and arrested them before they had unfastened their seat-belts.
Ms Stadelmann discovered the girls’ plight on 21 December after the children accidentally set off a home fire alarm. Although they had left a fully-stocked refrigerator, they had not given their children an emergency telephone 【C8】con______in Acapulco. "I asked them where their mom and dad were. They said Mexico".
The girls were looked after by another family, while, unable to trace their parents, Chicago police were forced to monitor passenger lists on all flights from Mexico. She said the girls had run screaming and barefoot 【C9】th______the snow to her house.
The sun-tanned couple were led through a crowd of reporters, but declined to comment. According to one of the arresting 【C10】______(office), they didn’t even ask how their children were. The Schoos have been charged with child abandonment as well as cruelty.
