26、When I was a senior in college, I came home for Christmas vacation and expected a fun-filled week with my two brothers. We were so excited to be together and we volunteered to watch the store so that my mother and father could take their first day off in years. The day before my parents went to Boston, my father took me quietly aside to the little den behind the store. He took out a cigar box, opened it and showed me a little pile of newspaper articles.
“What are they?” I asked.
Father replied seriously, “These are articles I’ve written and some letters to the editor that have been published.”
As I began to read, I saw at the bottom of each article the name Walter Chapman. “Why didn’t you tell me you’d done that?” I asked.
“Because I didn’t want your mother to know. She has always told me that since I didn’t have much education, I shouldn’t try to write. I wanted to run for some governmental office also, but she told me I shouldn’t try. I guess she was afraid she’d be shameful if I lost…”
He watched me as I read over a few of the articles and when I looked up, his big blue eyes were wet. “I guess I tried for something too big this time,” he added.
“Did you write something else?”
“Yes, I sent some suggestions in to our church magazine on how the national nominating committee could be more fairly(公平). It’s been three months since I sent it in. I guess I tried for something too big.”
This was such a new side to my fun-loving father that I didn’t quite know what to say, so I tried, “Maybe it’ll still come.”
The next morning our parents left on the bus to the railway station where they took a train to Boston.
Early that evening I looked out the store window and saw my mother get off the bus—alone.
“Where’s Dad?” We asked together.
“Your father’s dead.”
She told us they had been walking through the Park Street Subway Station in the crowds of people when father had fallen to the floor. A nurse bent over him, looked up at mother and said simply, “He’s dead.” Mother had stood by father, not knowing what to do as people tripped (绊倒) over him in their rush through the subway. Mother told us the shocking tale without running a tear. We didn’t cry either and we took turns waiting on the customers.
On the morning of the funeral (葬礼), I noticed the church magazine on the table. Normally I would never have opened it, but maybe that special article might be there—and it was. In the magazine I also found a two-page letter to my father from Henry Cabot Lodge, Sr., thanking him for the campaign suggestions. I took out the box and put them in it.
I didn’t tell anyone about the box.
【1】What may be the direct causes of Father kept the box hidden?
a. Father received little education.
b. Some suggestions father made to magazine might bring danger to the family.
c. Mother considered it a shame to make the box go public.
d. Father knew he would die soon.
A.ab
B.ac
C.bc
D.bd

c. My father’s article to the church magazine was published.
d. I came home for Christmas vacation.

27、 On the Labor Day, I went back to my hometown in Hunan Province with my parents. We visited our relatives, enjoyed natural view and tasted many kinds of delicious food that can only be found in the countryside. However, the most exciting thing was catching fish.
That was a wonderful afternoon. The weather was pleasant and the wind was soft.
After having a big meal, my uncle and my two cousins decided to catch some fish for lunch the next day. They invited me to join them and see how they catch fish to earn money. They put on special coats and boots, and then headed to the pond. The bottom of the pond was filled with thick mud, so I thought it was difficult to catch fish there.
My uncle and my cousins jumped into the pond. The pond had a special drainage(排水) system so they could lead some water into another place, which made it easier to catch fish. After a while, the water level dropped and big fishes appeared. I was so amazed to see that the fishes here were two times bigger than regular ones. Out of breath, the fishes couldn't do anything but kept jumping. A great amount of mud splashed out(溅出) from the pond onto our clothes. My uncle and my cousins caught some fish skillfully. The basket was full of fishes two hours later, and they were then sent to the market.
I will never forget this interesting and pleasant afternoon.

Gmail
Personally, I really like the Gmail app because it automatically puts emails, based on different items, into different categories. The important mail goes straight to my inbox (信箱), while l【5】 important mail is put into other categories.
