As I grew, Mother her    48   her spare time to    49  in a river near our house; she hoped that from the fish she caught, she could give me a little bit more     50  for my growth. Once she caught just two fish, she made fish soup. While I was eating the soup, Mother sat beside me and ate what was still kept on the    51   of the fish I had eaten. My heart was       52   when I saw it. So I gave the other fish to her but she immediately   53  it and said, “I don’t 54    like fish.”
Then, in order to pay for my    55    , Mother went to a match factory. This helped her get some money to cover my school fees. One wintry night I awoke to find Mother filling the matchboxes by candlelight.    56   I said, “Mother, go to sleep; it’s late; you can     57  working tomorrow.” Mother smiled and said, “Go to sleep, son! I’m not      58     .”

Mother said, “I’m not thirsty!”.
Now , I’m an employer and my     64   now is to work hard and to repay my mother for all the    65    that she gave me.

In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to     41    a different life. It was a transitional（过渡的）time in Daniel's life. I wanted to     42    him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the     43     time I had let such moments pass.
When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked     44     the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar     45      played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him     46     and confidence as he started this new stage of life. Again, words     47     me.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those     48    opportunities. How many times have I let such moments     49    ? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have     50     to me. Or what he might     51     to face in the years ahead. Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.

My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always     53    never hearing him put his    54     into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so    55   to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world    56    , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I was    57     of was the stubble（短须）on his chin as his face pressed    58   mine. What I had said to Daniel was    59   . It was nothing. And yet, it was   60    .

Students and Technology in the Classroom

I love my blackberry — it’s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop computer，as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices（设备）and truly communicate with others.

On occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule — no laptop, iPads, phones ,etc .When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.

Most students assume that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students assume that I am anti-technology. There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.

The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course the material and the class discussion.

I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.

I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change, I’m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.

1.Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with _______.

A．the course material	B．others’ misuse of technology
C．discussion topics	D．the author’s class regulations

2.The underlined word “engage ”in paragraph 4 probably means _______.

A．explore

B．accept

C．change

D．reject

3. According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may _______.

A．keep students from doing independent thinking

B．encourage students to have in-depth conversations

C．help students to better understand complex themes

D．affect students’ concentration on course evaluation

4. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author _______.

A．is quite stubborn

B．will give up teaching history

C．will change his teaching plan soon

D．values technology-free dialogues in his class

Is it so important? He just asked me casually about it ________ a drink．
