He moved there a few years ago,and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.
My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his
work and his family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him, he seemed
unhappy with me unless I got straight A"s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers
were not as "successful" as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to
struggle to think up things to say , feeling on guard.
On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father"s friends for lunch at an
outdoor cafe. We talked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table,
and laughed over my son"s funny facial expressions. Cone was my father"s critical air and
strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and
interesting to be around? What had held him back before?
The next day dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories
about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years , I
never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I"m at last seeing another
side of my father. And in so doing, l"m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new
home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was.
B. He was too proud of himself.
C. He did not love his children.
D. He expected too much of her.

B. the author"s father
C. the friend of the author"s father

举一反三
Saturday morning. We decided to stop at a local gas station to get coffee and something
to snack on since it was a good hour and a half before we got home.
When we were done, we got back into our car and before I started it, we noticed a
man standing outside in front of the building. He was a homeless man with worn clothes
and it looked like he had gone in and gotten himself some coffee or something warm to
drink since it was cold this time of the year. He must have not had enough money to get
something to eat.
Then a dog walked up to the front of the building. I could tell she was a female,
because you could see that she had been feeding puppies ( baby dogs) . She was terribly
in need of something to eat and I felt so bad for her. I knew if she didn"t eat soon, she
and her puppies would not make it.
I and my wife sat there and looked at her. We noticed that people walked by and
didn"t even pet her, like most people do when they walk by an animal in front of a store.
We still did not do anything. But the homeless man, who I thought did not buy himself
anything to eat, went back into the store. And what he did brought tears to me and my wife.
He had gone into the store and with what money he may have had,bought a can of dog
food and fed that dog.
This story plays a great part in our lives. You see, that was Mother"s Day weekend.
And a lot of people forget that some animals are parents too.
It took a homeless man, to show me what I should have done. He made me a better
man that day.
B. he was thirsty only
C. the store only provided drinks
D. he felt cold that day
B. were greatly moved
C. regretted they hadn"t done anything
D. were indifferent
B. have to attack people
C. not have to die
D. lose their homes
B. A Lucky Mother Dog
C. Mother Day"s Weekend
D. Animals Are Parents Too
I came out of the kitchen,complaining,"Mom,I can"t peel potatoes.I have only one
hand."
Mom never looked up from sewing."You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those
potatoes," she told me."And don"t ever use that as an excuse for anything again!"
In the second grade,our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race
across the monkey bars,swinging from one high steel rod to the next.When it was my turn,
I shook my head.Some kids behind me laughed,and I went home crying.
That night I told Mom about it.She hugged me,and I saw her "we"ll see about that"
look.The next afternoon,she took me back to school.At the deserted playground,Mom
looked carefully at the bars.
"Now,pull up with your right arm," she advised.She stood by as I struggled to lift myself
with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow.Day after day we
practiced,and she praised me for every rung I reached.I"ll never forget the next time,
crossing the rungs,I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open.
One night,after a dance at my new junior high,I lay in bed sobbing.I could hear Mom come
into my room."Mom," I said,weeping,"none of the boys would dance with me."
For a long time,I didn"t hear anything.Then she said,"Oh,honey,someday you"ll be
beating those boys off with a bat." Her voice was faint and cracking.I peeked out from my
covers to see tears running down her cheeks.Then I knew how much she suffered on my
behalf.She had never let me see her tears.
