My father was left fatherless at the age of 12, and pretty much on his own then.
Because of that, he was never the loving type. He didn’t have time to offer a pat on the back or a loving hug（拥抱）. He was built for work, and work he did—7 days a week—expecting my brothers and me to do the same.
Growing up, I spent much of my free time laboring with him on jobs around the house. To him, working alongside someone was the best way to show you cared. The way you felt about a person was clear from the fact you spent time with the person; you didn’t need to express your feelings. As far as I know, he never did. Except once.
I was 22, graduated from college, and leaving home for the last time. He and I had loaded my things into the car and were talking in the garage. Without warning, he wrapped me in his huge arms and hugged me tight.“You were always my favorite,”he said.“I love you, and I’m going to miss you.”
With that, he shooed（用“嘘”声驱赶）me into the car and then left for the house, tears in his eyes.
I was floored by his response—and then felt proud, pleased and grateful. Yet some small part of me also wondered why it had taken him so long to express his love.
I can accept now that it wasn’t possible for him to be warm—his feelings were buried too deeply under the layers of a tough life. Thanks to my father’s once-in-a-lifetime hug, I’ve come to realize something he never could. A hug is more than simple physical touch. It is a lightning-like connection between two people. A link that expresses love, encouragement, comfort-all the emotions that can strengthen a relationship, even turn a life around.
1.According to the author, his father didn’t show his feelings easily because of all the following reasons EXCEPT _____.
A.he didn’t think it important to show his love
B.he always worked around the house and paid no attention to his kids
C.he himself grew up without love from his own father
D.he thought the best way to show feelings was to spend time together
2.The word“floored”in the passage can be best replaced by _____.
A.frightened B.flooded
C.hit D.confused
3.It can be inferred from the passage that the author will probably _____.
A.hide his feelings for his kids as deeply as his father did
B.offer physical touch like hugs to his own kids quite often
C.not spend time working around the house with his own kids
D.not understand his father’s love for him for the rest of his life
4.The purpose of the writing is to _____.
A.mention the importance of a hug in our life
B.tell us an unhappy childhood without father’s care
C.share a touching story of the author and his father
D.show the difficult relationship between child and parents

New York—the Statue of Liberty（自由女神像），the skyscrapers（摩天大楼），the beautiful shops on Fifth Avenue and the many theaters on Broadway. This is America’s cultural（文化的）capital.

Manhattan is the real center of the city. When people say“New York City,”they usually mean Manhattan. Most of the interesting shops, buildings and museums are here.
