He believed it was important for me to have those jobs to learn responsibility. Then, when I was 22, I found a job in Natchbill at a country music club called the Natchbill Palace, I washed dishes and cooked from 4:00 p.m to 9:00 p.m and then went on stage and sang until 2:00 in the morning.

When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering(递送) milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer (自动换币器) fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a coin out of his changer.
Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese and other milk products. If we needed to change our order, my mother would write on a note-“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery”-and put it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.
All of this was about more than convenience(方便). There was a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, as a result, making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.
Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch (门廊). Every time my son’s friends ask what it is, I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.
小题1: Why did Mr. Basille give the boy a coin out of his changer?
A.To show his magical power.
B.To satisfy the boy’s curiosity(好奇心)
C.To pay for the milk.
D.To win the family’s trust (信任).
小题2:What can be inferred (推断) from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy’s house?
A.He wanted to have tea there.
B.He was a powerful person.
C.He was treated as a family member.
D.He was fully trusted by the family.
小题3:Why is there no home milk delivery today?
A.Nobody wants to be a milkman now.
B.The government has stopped it by law.
C.It has been driven out of the market.
D.Its service is becoming worse and worse.
小题4:Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?
A.He missed the good old days.
B.He wanted to tell interesting stories.
C.He missed it for his milk bottles.
D.He used it to beautify the back porch.

I shook hands with my father in the truck, and for a long time he looked straight ahead and didn’t say a word. But I knew he was going to say a little to me. “I can’t tell     ,” he finally said. “I never went to college, andnone of your      went to college. I can’t say don’t do this and do that,      everything is different. And I don’t know      is going to come up. I can’t help much with money,     , but I think things will work out. ”
He gave me a new check-book(支票簿). “If you are short of money,      a small check. But when you write one, send me a letter and let me     how much. There are some things we can always sell.” In four years all the checks I wrote were less than a thousand dollars. My part-time jobs such as      to the blind student and sitting with the teachers’ kids filled in the financial gaps.
“You know what you want to be, and they’ll tell you what to take,” my father went on. “When you get a job, be sure it’s honest, and work hard.”
Then my dad reached down beside his seat and brought the old,      Bible that he had read so often. He didn’t say read this every morning. He just said, “This can help you if you will let it.”
Did it help? I got through college      being a burden on the family. I have been able to make money since.
