A few days ago, my sister Liz and I talked about Dad, and we decided to get him a little something for Father's Day. We talked about the times when we were 　 　　 　 up and how Mom and Dad used to play the ‘good cop, bad cop’ thing on us. Dad has been a person of few words since we were 　　 　　 　　 . He raised us more by 　　 　　 　　 than anything else. When he spoke, though we listened, he was always mysterious and difficult to understand. There was always a(n) 　　 　　 　　 meaning that I never got, but Liz always 　　 　　 　　 to decipher(破解) him. By the time I got to high school, I had wanted a skateboard and I 　 　　 　　 I was too old to ask money from my parents, so I worked at a burger joint (美式汉堡店). One day, I was really angry about annoying burgers. I came home huffing and puffing(气喘吁吁). Dad saw me and asked me what was the 　　 　　 　　 . I told him that I was fed up with annoying burgers. He said that we all have to start somewhere, that we may not know it now, but the skills we learn even in a burger joint might come in handy __　 　　 　 __in life, ‘Who knows, you might end up having to run a 　 　　 　　 or even own one when you grow up,’ said Dad. He 　　 　　 　 me down and I kept what he said in mind, even though I really didn’t agree with it.

A couple of years later, when I got to college, I worked in a restaurant. During one of the really 　　 　　 　　 days that we had, we were short on kitchen staff. Our customers were getting impatient and the 　　 　　 　　 were getting delayed. We were sure any minute something terrible would　 　　 　　 out. I couldn’t stand the 　　 　　 　 any more, so I rolled up my sleeves, got myself a hair net and helped out in the hot kitchen. We caught up with the orders 　　 　　 　　 . The owner saw what I did and called me over around 　　 　　 　 time. He said that he was very 　　 　　 　 . He raised my salary and made me the assistant manager even though I could only go part-time. That was 　　 　　 　　 I realized that what my dad said to me all those years before was absolutely true.

I’ve never forgotten what my dad said that day. And whenever I have to do something that requires new skills, no matter how insignificant or 　　 　　 　　 it seems, I have a new perspective(看法) that it might really help me later on or even right now and I just don’t know it. Experience is everything and it 　 　　 　　 a lot when you take lessons from it. That’s my life’s philosophy.

My trip with my sister and my daughter to Manhattan wedding gown(长袍，长外衣) shop, cannot be understood without further focusing on Marina, my 14-year-old daughter I’ve asked to try on dresses.

This was the girl I took to Kleinfeld, the fancy store featured on the television program “Say Yes to the Dress”. As the trip approached, I asked Marina if she was excited. “Sure, Mom.” she’d say, shrugging. Marina was more excited about getting a tattoo(文身) on her ankle to represent my fight with ALS(肌萎缩性脊髓侧索硬化症) than trying on $ 10,000 wedding gowns.

My sister, Stephanie, had arranged for a car with a wheelchair lift to drive us from the hotel to Kleinfeld. The car driver wheeled me in.

At Kleinfeld with flower arrangements ten feet high, I felt like rolling into a dream. “Wow!” I said. I was wearing a new black outfit. Marina wore jean shorts, a sleeveless(无袖的) shirt, and sneakers. She stood with her hands crossed over her chest, like this was the last place on the planet she wanted to be. The kind Kleinfeld ladies pointed out rooms like tour guides, naming the designers one by one on display: Alita Grham, Pnina Tornai… With Marina walking beside me, Stephanie pushed my chair up and down rows and rows of dresses that made Princess Diana’s dress look modest.

Marina didn’t say a word. We turned a corner into the storage room, where hundreds of dresses hung in plastic protector sleeves. Marina and I were overwhelmed.

“Want to try one on ?” I said, touching Marina’s hand.

“OK,” Marina said in her sharp, unsure voice.

“Tell them the style you’d like.”

Marina stood silent. I felt bad for bringing her, for forcing such an adult experience on a child.

Marina picked an A-line dress. Or, more precisely, the ladies of Kleinfeld picked it for her. Marina was too shocked to do more than nod. As she took the gown into the dressing room, I tried not to think of my little girl on her wedding day or of her as a baby in my arms. I tried not to think of her with her own baby in her arms one day.

I tried not to think of Marina right now, embarrassed by her mother’s plans, by things she could not and should not yet understand.

I am leaving money in my will for Marina’s wedding dress. Stephanie has promised to bring her back to Kleinfeld to purchase it.

“No pure white!” I said to Stephanie. “Ivory. Not too much tulle(薄纱). Think lace.”

“Think royalty when picking a dress,” I advised Steph as we waited outside the dressing room. “Think Princes Kate. Elegant. Think long sleeves. They make dresses more formal.”

Marina came out, sleeveless, flared(下摆宽大的). She looked like a 14-year-old girl in the middle of a giant cupcake.

“I don’t like the loose gown.” she said.

That’s my girl!

“How about trying on one with long sleeves?” I asked her.

The ladies brought out a dress with long lace sleeves, an Empire collar, a ruched(有褶饰的) fitted waist, and a long, smooth silk skirt.

Marina disappeared into the dressing room. When the door opened, she looked a foot taller and a decade older. I could clearly see the beautiful woman she will be one day. I simply stared.

What do you do when you glimpse a moment you will not live to see?

I dipped my head. Breathe, I told myself. I looked up. I smiled. Marina smiled back.

I worked my tongue into position to speak. “I like it,” I said.

In that dress, Marina stood straight, shining brightly, and tall.

“You are beautiful,” I whispered, my tongue barely cooperating. I don’t know if she heard me. We took some photos. And moved on. A memory made.

If you are ever planning to buy a telescope and want to get yourself involved in astronomy it is always a good idea to know a bit of the sky.Get acquainted with a few constellations(星座) so that it will be easier for you to spot the constellations when you are using your telescope.

It’s a good idea to buy a few magazines on astronomy to help you to get familiar with the constellations in the sky and also read a few reviews on the different types of telescopes in the market.This will help you gather all the information that is out there regarding telescopes and what people have to say about them.

It’s advisable to go in for a pair of binoculars(双筒望远镜) before you buy your first telescope so that you can get used to spotting constellations before your view of the sky is narrowed down.This will also help you know if you really want to get involved in astronomy.Many people buy a costly telescope and then discover that they’re not actually interested in astronomy.

Experience has no substitute，and there certainly is nothing better than using different telescopes before you buy one.This will help you to get the feel of all the types of telescopes and you will know which one is easier for you to use.A large aperture(光圈) refractor(折射) may give you an excellent image but you may not be able to keep a steady hand while using it resulting in a blurry image.

There are three types of telescopes that are available in the market.If you want a more elegant looking telescope you can always choose to buy a fine brass telescope.It’s good to become acquainted with each type before going for the plunge of a first telescope.The first type of telescope is the refractor telescope，which uses lenses to gather light to a focus at the eye piece.The use of lenses helps the telescope have a superior image.A refracting telescope is not as portable as the other two types of telescopes and so you will have to buy one with a small aperture.

The second type of telescope is the Reflector.Made by Sir Isaac Newton，this telescope functions by focusing the light back at the front of the tube，which is where the eyepiece sits，by using parabolic(抛物线的) mirrors and another smaller mirror to deflect the light.There is no added color in the image caused by refraction of light since this telescope does not use lenses.These are the cheapest of all telescopes and are more portable than refractors.

1.According to the text，a telescope is intended to be bought for ________.

A．getting experience

B．watching stars

C．studying the climate

D．learning about a bit of the sky

2.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?

A．One must know something about astronomy and telescopes.

B．One can’t buy a telescope without buying several astronomy magazines.

C．One should check the telescopes in the market and try to find a better one.

D．One must be familiar with new information of astronomy and space instruments.

3.Why does the author advise buying a pair of binoculars first?

A．The telescope is too expensive.

B．The binoculars are easier to use.

C．You may gain plenty of experience in astronomy.

D．Your view will be narrow by using a pair of binoculars.

4.What do we know about the refracting telescope?

A．It looks very elegant.

B．It refracts light by an eye piece.

C．It has clear images without any lenses.

D．It is not convenient to take along for its size.
