Love is more powerful
Many years ago, my dad decided to volunteer at the local children hospital. My dad loved kids. It was the perfect job for him. He would talk to them and play with them and do arts and crafts with them.
There was a girl, Karen, who had been admitted with a rare disease that paralyzed(使麻痹,使瘫痪) her from the neck down. I don’t know the name of the disease, but I do know that it was very sad for a girl around eight or nine years old. She couldn’t do anything, and she was very depressed(沮丧的). My dad decided to try to help her. He started visiting her in her room, bringing paints, brushes and paper. He stood the paper up against a backing, put the paintbrush in his mouth and began to paint. He didn’t use his hands at all. Only his head would move. He would visit her whenever he could and paint for her. All the while he would tell her, “See, you can do anything you set your mind to.”
At the end of the day, she began to paint using her mouth, and she and my dad became friends. Soon after, the little girl was discharged(允许出院) because the doctors felt there was nothing else they could do for her. My dad also left the children hospital for a little while because he became ill. Some time later after my dad had recovered and returned to work, he was at the volunteer counter in the lobby(门厅) of the hospital. He noticed the front doors open. In came Karen, only this time she was walking. She ran straight over to my dad and hugged him really tight. She gave my dad a picture she had done using her hands. At the bottom it read: “Thank you for helping me walk”.
My dad would cry every time he told us this story. He would say sometimes love is more powerful than doctors, and my dad who died just a few months after the little girl gave him the picture --loved every single child in that hospital.
1.The writer’s father decided to volunteer________.
A.at the children bookstore B.in the shopping mall
C.in the community D.at the local children hospital
2.How did the writer’s father help the paralyzed little girl?
A.He helped her practice walking. B.He painted special pictures for her.
C.He visited her and made a toy for her. D.He showed her she could still do things.
3.Why did the little girl give the writer’s father a picture?
A.Because he was badly ill. B.Because he liked pictures very much.
C.Because she wanted to thank him for his help. D.Because her mother wanted her to do that.
