After my dad died on Aug.30, 2001, my mother made sure we marked each anniversary. At first, my brothers and sister and I would travel hours to get home, but eventually we got to the point where just one or two of us would make it back to go to Mass with her and spend the day together.

The great love of her life, the man who broke up with her right before her college graduation, only to return two years later claiming he’d traveled the world and hadn’t found anyone to compare with her, remained a daily presence in her life. She spoke about him so often and kept his memory so alive that people were sometimes surprised to learn that he was gone. She took over the garden where he’d planted and made it her own.

When the 10th anniversary of his death approached, my mom began talking about it and planning for it weeks in advance. The date on her kitchen calendar was circled and marked R.I.P. (Rest in Peace). Of course she wanted all of us there and settled the dates for our coming back.

On Monday — the day before the anniversary — she went to morning Mass and walked downtown for lunch with friends, and later told my sister on the phone that she felt Dad still so close that as she was walking back home, she heard someone yell and thought, “Oh, there’s Dick.”

That evening she went out to water flowers, just as my father, 10 years before, had gone out to the garden to pick vegetables before he died. A neighbor heard the tin watering can strike the ground as she fell and hit her head. My mother died within hours, on Aug.30, 2011, the 10thanniversary. She needed to mark that anniversary, she wanted us all home and my dad had waited long enough.

1.From the second paragraph we know that the author’s father______.

A．traveled around the world and left her mother

B．left her mother first but returned two years later

C．had a quarrel with her before her graduation

D．was not the right man her mother wanted at that time

2.We can infer from the passage that the author’s mother _____.

A．knew her last day was coming on Aug.30

B．kept everything of her father’s home

C．missed Father though he had passed away

D．remained a daily presence in his life

3.Which of the following statements is true EXCEPT that _____.

A．Mother died the day before the anniversary of Father’s death

B．Mother died in the garden as Father did ten years ago

C．Mother died because she fell to the ground accidentally

D．Mother died on the same date when Father did ten years ago

4.What does the writer imply in the underlined part of the last sentence?

A．She wanted us to stay at home.             B．Mother missed us very much.

C．Mother expected us to get back.            D．That day was her last day.

The summer before my dad died, we moved house. Up until that point, our family had our own space to spread out. Money was tight, so there was no television set, but we owned a turntable on which my dad’s records played constantly. Mostly, it played Bob Dylan. Tracks from The Basement Tapes and Desire became an important part of our new life. My brother and I, aged 8 and 10, climbed trees, built hideaways and learned the words of Clothes Line Saga. We would chant over the, lost in our own joy.

It was January when my dad left us forever because of the cancer. He was 36 going on 37 then, the same age as Dylan. Afterwards, our laughter disappeared, but we kept on playing the records, which became our only ritual of remembrance. The two men became so intertwined in my head, I struggled to tell them apart.

Dylan was my dad’s gift to me. What child wouldn’t be fascinated by songs full of pirates and seasick sailors? How did it feel to have No direction home? Farewell, Angelina became my party-piece. I would sing this at church cheese and wines to the assembled audience. A lot of donations were made.

Growing up, I remained a fan of the music, but I wasn’t obsessed with Dylan until one day in early 1995, my brother bought us both tickets to see him play at Brixton Academy. London felt like a long way to go. But finally seeing Dylan step out onto the stage brought a sudden rush of excitement.

I have seen Dylan a couple of times since. My brother is not around so much these days. But he was up for a visit recently. We passed a happy evening laughing and drinking, while his son, aged nine, performed his party—piece Subterranean Homesick Blues for us. He sang it word-perfect. And so it goes on: Dylan’s music as a gift, passed down the generations.

1.What’s the author’s purposed of writing the passage?

A. To praise his late father.　　 B. To tell about his family history.

C. To express his longing for family reunion.　　 D. To show his love for Bob Dylan.

2.The underlined word “ritual” in the second paragraph means “________”.

A. passion　　 B. ceremony

C. memory　　 D. belief

3.How did the author raise money in his childhood?

A. By singing a Dylan’s song at church gatherings.

B. By providing cheese and wines to church prayers.

C. By playing a private in church performances.

D. By accepting donations from the church.

4.The recent visit of the author’s brother indicates that ________.

A. his nephew was ever invited to play in Dylan’s concert

B. his brother has never seen a live performance of Dylan

C. Dylan’s music has influenced three generations of his family

D. Subterranean Homesick Blues is always his favourite song

That summer an army of crickets(蟋蟀) started a war with my father. Dad didn’t care for insects much more than Mamma, but he could tolerate a few living in the basement. Mamma was a city girl and she said a cricket was just too noisy. Then to support her point she wouldn’t go to bed. She drank coffee and smoked my father’s cigarettes and paced between the sofa and the TV. Next morning she threatened to pack up and leave, so Dad drove to the store and hurried back. He sprayed poison from a jug. When he was finished he told us that was the end of it.

For a couple of weeks we went back to find dead crickets in the laundry. He suggested that we’d all be better off to hide as many as we could from Mamma. I fed a few dozen to the cat who I didn’t like because he scratched for no reason.

However, soon live crickets started showing up in the kitchen and bathroom. Mamma was upset because she thought they were the dead crickets coming back, but Dad said these were certainly new ones. He fetched his jug of poison and sprayed all over until the whole house smelled of poison, and then he sprayed the basement again.

A couple of weeks later, when both live and dead crickets kept turning up, Dad emptied the basement of junk. Then he burned a lot of old newspapers and magazines which he said the crickets had turned into nests.

While we ate supper that evening, the wind lifted some flames onto the wood pile. The only gasoline was in the lawn mower’s(割草机) fuel tank but that was enough to create an explosion big enough to reach the house. Once the roof caught, there wasn’t much anyone could do.

After the fire trucks left, Mamma took the others to Aunt Gail’s. I helped Dad and Uncle Burt carry things out of the house and pile them by the road. We worked into the night and we didn’t talk much, while all around the noise of crickets broke our silence.

1.What do we know about the author’s mother?

A. She didn’t like insects at all.

B. She liked insects more than his father.

C. She cared for insects very much.

D. She could only tolerate a few insects.

2.The author’s father drove to the store to buy _______.

A. cigarettes for himself                                                   B. some poison

C. more coffee for his wife                                              D. some gasoline

3.The author’s father burned the old newspapers and magazines because he thought ______.

A. they were no longer useful

B. the crickets were afraid of fires

C. they became the home of crickets

D. the dead crickets came back to life

4.We learn from the last paragraph that ________.

A. the author’s family lost their battle against the crickets

B. the author’s parents learned to put up with insects

C. the author’s family didn’t suffer much in the fire

D. the author’s parents got divorced
