A few years after I was born, a stranger appeared in our small town. Dad liked this attractive newcomer very much and soon invited him to live with our family. The stranger was quickly accepted and was around from then on.
As I grew up, I never questioned his place in my family. In my young mind, he had a special position. Mom taught me how to tell good from bad, and Dad taught me to follow orders. But the stranger was our storyteller. He would keep us listening for hours with adventures, mysterious stories and comedies. If I wanted to know something about history or science, he always knew the answers. He knew about the past, understood the present and even seemed to be able to know what would happen in the future! With his help, my family even watched a national ball game for the first time.
Both my brothers and I enjoyed sitting around the stranger. He made us laugh; he made us cry, and he never stopped talking. Dad didn’t seem to mind. However , Mom thought he was too talkative. Sometimes she would go to the kitchen for peace and quietness.
My dad didn’t allow drinking, but the stranger encouraged us to try it. He also made us feel that smoking looked cool and manly. He talked freely (much too freely!).
Fifty years has passed since the stranger moved in and now I am fifty-four. I now know that my early childhood was strongly influenced by the stranger. Many times, he challenged the values of my parents, yet nobody stopped him or asked him to leave. What is his name? We just call him—”TV”. He has a younger sister now. We call her “computer”.
1.Who was the storyteller in the family?
A. Mom. B. Dad. C. TV. D. Brother
2.Why would Mom go to the kitchen while the rest of us were with the stranger?
A. Because the programs were not interesting.
B. Because she wanted to avoid the noise.
C. Because she didn’t like to be with her family.

B. the stranger always argued with the writer’s parents
C. the writer’s mother thought that the stranger was cool
D. the writer’s father brought the stranger to his family
