It was a Saturday morning, a day I believed would end in victory. For weeks, I had been preparing for the match at the county fairgrounds, sponsored(赞助) by our local riding club. My horse, Tonka, and I could run faster than any kid in the county, and I hoped to bring home a blue ribbon.
My mother usually drove me to the riding events, but on this day, my father planned to drop us off at the fairgrounds with the horse trailer(马车) .
Although we never discussed it, my father’s struggle with alcoholism had become the silent center of our family life. My mother was paralyzed (瘫痪的) with fear and indecision. Her salary as a part-time nurse couldn’t possibly support four children. No one talked about alcoholism in those days, and it was my family secret.
We climbed on the trailer and my father pulled out of our driveway and headed toward the fairgrounds, picking up speed once we hit the main road. It wasn’t until we felt a big bump that I realized the trailer was out of control. The dream of my riding winner disappeared. Tonka lay on the floor, completely still. No words were possible. I knew he was dead.
Suddenly a man appeared. “Are you all right?” he asked. “Yes.”I answered, although I knew that nothing was all right. “Sit here on the grass,” he said. He bent down to look into the trailer. Tonka remained still. He touched Tonka and then turned to face me. “He is going to be OK. He has just been knocked unconscious.” He rubbed Tonka’s cheeks and gently pulled his ears. Tonka rose to his feet.
Our father was talking to a police officer. He was upset and in pain and took little notice of me. I looked back; the man was gone.
I never forgot him. He gave me strength and a sense of hope in a dark and frightening moment.

It was a day I’d been waiting for. I had seen a few lift-offs(升空)on vision before, but this one was special. It was Apollo 11. The astronauts were headed for the Moon, just to orbit, as Apollo 8 and Apollo 10 had done a few months earlier. This time, people would actually walk on it!
I had a hard time getting through the next three days until Apollo 11 reached the Moon. I was glued to the television. Finally, Sunday morning arrived. After eating dinner, my family gathered in the living room. Our new television offered the best picture of the upcoming events. Luckily, I had read many books on space flight. I was familiar with the technical phrases, being discussed between Mission Control Center and the astronauts.,
Then, we heard the countdown to the undocking(出舱)of the Eagle, the Lunar Module (LM), from the Columbia, the Command and Service Module. None of us paid much attention to the background chatter. If we had, we would have realized that the descent(降落)was not going well. A loud master alarm kept sounding inside the LM. If it continued, the astronauts would have to stop the descent. But in our excitement, we didn’t realize what was happening. Then we saw that the astronauts had reached the Moon. We all gave a loud cheer when Armstrong said his famous words as the LM touched down: "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed."
Even though I was only eight years old, I sensed the importance of that moment. Looking back at it, I feel a little sad that there has been nothing quite like that since. But we have our sight set on Mars now. To get to Mars, we will need to visit the Moon again. That excites me. I’d love to see another moonwalk. I hope that kids will watch, as I did, the images(影像)of humans on another planet. Perhaps the next moonwalkers will change the lives of those viewers, as Armstrong and Aldrin changed my life 50 years ago.
1.What can we learn about the author when he was young?
A.He liked watching TV B.He was crazy about reading.
C.He wanted to be an astronaut. D.He was interested in space flight.
2.Why did the author ignore the background chatter?
A.He didn’t know the technical phrases. B.He paid his attention to the alarm.
C.He was too excited. D.He was too young.
3.What would be the best title for the text?
A.A magical moment. B.A happy childhood.
C.A return to the Moon. D.A goal of visiting Mars.
