| Five people are at our table, including myself. I"ve already learnt a great deal about them in the short time we"ve been at sea,although we rarely meet except at mealtimes. First of all, there"s Dr Stone. He"s a man of about sixty-five, with gray hair and a friendly face. He gave up his work a short while ago and is now traveling round the world before he retires to some quiet country village. As a young man, he served for many years as a doctor in the army and visited many countries. He"s told us a great deal about the city to which we are going. Then there"s "Grandmother". I call her that because her name escapes me. In spite of being a grandmother, she looks remarkably young, not more than fifty. She"s on her way to visit a daughter who went to Australia some years ago. Naturally she is very excited at the thought of seeing her again, and her three grandchildren, whom she has never seen. Then there"s a man I don"t care for very much, an engineer by the name of Barlow. He has been on leave in England and is now returning to his work in Singapore. The other person who sits at our table is Mrs Hunt. I"ve found out hardly anything about her. She"s extremely quiet and rarely talks, except to consult the doctor about children"s various illnesses.She"s on her way to join her husband in India. | |||
| 1. What can we know about Mr Stone? | |||
| A. He is a doctor in the army now. B. He is going to give up his work. C. He knows a lot about the city the author is going to. D. He has been retired for many years. | |||
| 2. The writer calls the second person "Grandmother" because___________. | |||
| A. she looks old B. she has three daughters C. he respects her D. he can"t think of her name | |||
| 3. The underlined phrase "on leave" ( in Paragraph 4) means"________". | |||

| On Sundays my father always wore that dull gray apron - the one with the race cars all over it. The ritual began after breakfast when Dad always announced: "Go ahead everyone. I"ll take care of the dishes!" With that my mother disappeared into the folds of the Sunday paper. Off came the suit coat he had worn to church that morning. Up went the shirtsleeves. On went that apron. For the next hour Dad did the dishes, singing ballads like "I Had a Hat When I Came In" and "Who Put the Chow in Mrs. Murphy"s Chowder?" I suppose it was strange for a boy"s father to wear an apron - even one with race cars - but I neve r thought much of it until the day that Dad broke with tradition. It was the last Sunday in August. My father seemed in an expansive mood as we walked home from church together. "Tommy," he said letting my name roll off his tongue. My mind raced ahead of his words: The birds and the bees? A new bike? A part-time job? "There comes a time in every boy"s life when he must take on responsibilities." This was important. I might even get to back the car out of the driveway. "Responsibilities?" I asked. "Yes. It"s time you took a greater role in the household." Power tools? Boss my baby brother? "Starting today, I want you to do the dishes on Sunday morning so your mother and I can work the crossword puzzle together." "The dishes!?" "Anything wrong with taking over the dishes, son?" I started to say something about a man"s job or woman"s work, but I knew immediately that my protests would fall on deaf ears. I didn"t taste a bit of breakfast that morning. Dad seemed in a cheerful mood and was describing a wonderful baseball game he saw last night. Suddenly, everything grew quiet. My sister began to clear the table. My brother was finishing the last of the egg from his plate. And then that ancient family ritual (程序、仪式) that had filled so many Sunday mornings came to an end. My father announced: "Let"s go read the paper, Hon." "Aren"t you doing the dishes?" my mother asked in puzzlement. "Your oldest son has generously offered to fill the position." My brother and sister stopped cold. So this was what my life had come to. A dark angel sat on my left shoulder and reminded me that I could hit a baseball farther than anyone in my class. I could bench-press my weight. Ask me to run through a rainstorm. Command me to ride the roller coaster backward. These things I would do. But I could never do those dishes. There was nothing left but to refuse. People often say there is a special chemistry between a father and a son. He came back into the kitchen just as I was about to storm out. He had loosened his tie and rolled up the sleeves of his shirt- ready to relax. In his right hand was the old apron. "I want you to have this, Tommy. It"ll keep your clothes from getting wet." And before I could mount a protest, he had put the thing on me. "Thanks, Son. Your mother and I appreciate this." With that he disappeared into the Sunday paper. I looked down at the plastic. It had seen better days. I could see my dad reaching for the dishes. The dark angel flew off. Soon I was singing about Mrs. Murphy"s chowder. The words came out of nowhere. And out of nowhere I knew the kind of man I wanted to be. | |||

| Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson,Arizona. He moved there a few years ago,and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends. My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and his family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him, he seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A"s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as "successful" as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say , feeling on guard. On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father"s friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe. We talked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son"s funny facial expressions. Cone was my father"s critical air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before? The next day dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years , I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I"m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, l"m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was. | |||

| We were on our way home from Houston, Texas around the Weston Lakes area one Saturday morning. We decided to stop at a local gas station to get coffee and something to snack on since it was a good hour and a half before we got home. When we were done, we got back into our car and before I started it, we noticed a man standing outside in front of the building. He was a homeless man with worn clothes and it looked like he had gone in and gotten himself some coffee or something warm to drink since it was cold this time of the year. He must have not had enough money to get something to eat. Then a dog walked up to the front of the building. I could tell she was a female, because you could see that she had been feeding puppies ( baby dogs) . She was terribly in need of something to eat and I felt so bad for her. I knew if she didn"t eat soon, she and her puppies would not make it. I and my wife sat there and looked at her. We noticed that people walked by and didn"t even pet her, like most people do when they walk by an animal in front of a store. We still did not do anything. But the homeless man, who I thought did not buy himself anything to eat, went back into the store. And what he did brought tears to me and my wife. He had gone into the store and with what money he may have had,bought a can of dog food and fed that dog. This story plays a great part in our lives. You see, that was Mother"s Day weekend. And a lot of people forget that some animals are parents too. It took a homeless man, to show me what I should have done. He made me a better man that day. | |||
