From the time each of my children started school, I packed their lunches. And in each lunch I packed, I included a note. Often written on a piece of small paper, it might be a thank-you for an unusual moment, a reminder of something we were happily expecting, or a bit of encouragement for the coming test or sporting event.
In early grade school they loved their notes. But as children grow older they become self-conscious(有自我意识的), and by the time he reached high school, my older son, Marc, informed me he no longer enjoyed my daily notes. Telling him that he no longer needed to read them but I still needed to write them, I continued until the day he graduated.
Six years after high school graduation, Marc called and asked if he could move home for a couple of months. He had spent those years well, graduation from college, completing two internship(实习)in Washington, D.C., and finally, becoming a technical assistant in Sacramento. However, he had lived away from home except for short holiday visits. With his younger sister leaving for college, I was especially happy to have Marc back. Since I was still making lunch for his younger brother, I packed one of Marc, too. Imagine my surprise when I got a call from my 24-year-old son, asking about his lunch.
“Did I do something wrong? Don’t you love me any longer, Mom?” he asked.
“Of course I love you, dear!” I laughingly said. “What’s wrong?”
“My note, Mom,” he answered. “Where’s my note?”
1.The writer wrote the daily notes in her children’s exercise books, didn’t she?
2.What kind of note did the writer give her children before a test?
She gave them a note __________________________________________.
3.What did Marc suggest his mother do when he reached high school?
4.When did Marc visit home during the six years after he left high school?
5.Why did the writer feel especially happy to have Marc back?
6.How do you understand the underlined part “Don’t you love me any longer, Mom?” and why?

Millions of children in the United States ride safely to and from school on school buses each day. Although school buses are the safest way to take them to school, about 33 school-age children die in school bus-related(与巴士有关的) traffic accidents each year.
