My name is Tim. Daddy didn't know how to show love. He went to work every day and blamed (责备) me for the mistakes I had made when he came home.
Once I broke my leg and it was Mum who held me in her arms all the way to the hospital.
Later, Dad pulled the car right up to the door of the hospital.
They asked him to move it, saying the space was saved for the ambulance(救护车). Dad shouted, “What do you think this is? A tour bus?”
At my birthday parties, Dad always seemed out of place. He just kept himself busy blowing up balloons, setting up tables, and welcoming the guests. It was Mum who carried the cake with the candles on it for me to blow out.
When I learned to ride a bike, I asked him not to leave me alone, but he said it was time. I fell and Mum ran to pick me up, but he stopped her. I was so mad that I showed him that I could ride it myself. He just smiled.
When I went to college, Mum did all the writing. He just sent money and a little note about how great his garden looked now just because I wasn't playing football on it.
Whenever I called home, he acted like he wanted to talk but always said, “Wait, Tim. I'll get your mother.”

A few years ago, I worked at a church(教堂). Since my son was home schooling, he went with me to the church every day. Most mornings, we’d stop at a local store, and get a chocolate drink for him and a cup of coffee for me.
The clerk(店员) at the store made our lives more enjoyable each day, and so we returned again and again. She had found her own way of enjoying life and her job. I’m not even sure if she realized that her warmth and brightness put a smile upon the face of each customer(顾客).
When a customer brought cakes to the counter, any other clerk could have asked: “Would you like some milk with those cakes?” Instead, she asked: “Would you like a lottery ticket(彩票) with those cakes?”
She might have asked me if I wanted sugar with my coffee. But instead, she asked: “Would you like some batteries(电池) with that coffee?”
Yes, life is what you make of it. This clerk’s method of dealing with what some think is a boring job, and with the customers she met daily, made the hours in her day more enjoyable. In doing that, she also refreshed the lives of others and made them laugh.
Sometimes, if my day at the church had been very tiring, we’d stop at that store before going home. We’d giggle (咯咯笑) as we left the store, the clerk’s words echoing (回响) behind us.
“Would you like some shampoo (洗发香波) with that orange juice?”
1. When did the writer and her son usually stop at the local store?
A. In the morning. B. At noon.
C. In the afternoon. D. In the evening
2. Why did the writer and her son return to the store again and again?
A. Because the drinks were delicious there.
B. Because the food was cheap there.
C. Because they felt happy there.
D. Because there was only one store.
3.What was the clerk like?
A. She was serious. B. She was lively.
C. She was nervous. D. She was silly.
4.The clerk at the store may ask the customers, “_________”
A. Would you like some milk with the cakes?
B. Would you like some bread with the milk?
C. Would you like batteries with the toys?
D. Would you like pencils with the cake?

Once my father asked me to hold his hammer while he repaired something, so we could have some time to talk to each other.
For 22 years, after I left home for college, he called me every Sunday at 9 am. He was always interested in my life and how my family was doing, and I never once heard him complain about his own life.
Nine years ago when I bought my first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours a day painting it for three days. He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. All he asked for was a glass of iced tea and for me to hold a paint brush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy.
Five years ago, at age 71, my father spent five hours putting together a swingset (秋千组) for my daughter. Again, all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea and talk to him. But again, I was too busy.
Four years ago, my father drove all the way from Denver to Topeka, with an eight-foot Colorado blue spruce (蓝叶云杉) in his trunk, so that my husband and I could have a part of Colorado growing on our land. I was preparing for a trip that weekend and couldn’t spend much time with him.
Then, one day, my father telephoned me as usual, this time from my sister’s home in Florida. We talked about the tree he had brought me, “Fat Albert”, but that morning he called it “Fat Oscar”, and he seemed to have forgotten some things. I had to get to church, so I cut the conversation short.
The call came at 4:40 pm that day: my father was in hospital in Florida with an aneurysm (动脉瘤). I got on a plane immediately, and on the way I thought of all the times I had not taken the time to talk to my father. I realized that I had no idea who he was or what his deepest thoughts were. I promised that when I arrived, I would make up for lost time.
I arrived in Florida at 1 am. My father had passed away at 9:12 pm. This time it was he who did not have time to talk to me.
1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The writer arrived in Florida before her father passed away.
B. The writer didn’t find enough time to talk to her father all these years.
C. The writer noticed nothing unusual about her father’s health before he was put in the hospital.
D. The writer’s father brought them the Colorado blue spruce because it is an expensive kind of tree.
2.How did the writer feel when she was rushing to the hospital where her father was staying?
A. Hopeless. B. Sorry.
C. Frightened. D. Disappointed.
3.Which words best describe the writer’s father?
A. Honest and modest.
B. Strict and demanding (要求高的).
C. Talkative and positive (积极乐观的).
D. Caring and thoughtful.
4.What’s the best title of this passage?
A. What a good father! B. How busy I am.
C. Time keeps going. D. My father and our family.
