My parents passed away ten years ago and I miss them terribly. But I know they are with me every day in what they taught me and in the 36 they gave me.

At that time, though part of me was 41 up in that band, another part of me was the oldest son in the Clark family, 42 of my origin and a dedicated student busy applying to colleges. Without even telling my parents, I applied to Harvard. I didn’t think I had much chance of getting in, 43 I wanted to try. So I was riding around being Mr Cool Rock Musician half of the time, and the other half I was focused on family and 44 goals. I was running on parallel 45 .

The bicycling craze came in when we were just about at the right age to enjoy it．At first even “safety” bicycles were too dangerous and improper for ladies to ride, and they had to have tricycles．My mother had(I believe)the first female tricycle in Cambridge；and l had a little one，and we used to go out for family rides，all together；my father in front on a bicycle． and my poor brather Charles standing miserable on the bar behind lny mother．I found it very hard work．pounding(轰隆隆行进)away on my hard tyres；a glorious，but not a pleasurable pastinle．
Then, one day at lunch, my father said he had just seen a new kind of tyre，filled up,with air，and he thought it might be a success．And soon after that everyone had bicycles，ladies and all; and bicycling became the smart thing，and the lords and ladies had their pictures in the papers，riding along in the park，in straw hats．
My mother must have fallen off her bicycle pretty often，for I remember seeing the most appalling cuts and bruises(青肿)on her legs．But she never complained，and always kept these accidents to herself．However，the great Mrs. Phillips，our cook, always knew all a hout them；as indeed she knew practically everything that ever happened．She used to draw us into the servants' hall to tell us privately：“Her Ladyship had a nasty fall yesterday；she cut both her knees and sprained her wrist．But don't Iet her know I told you．”So we never dared say anything．Similar little accidents used to occur when，at the age of nearly Seventy，she insisted on learning to drive a car．She never mastered the art of reversing(倒车)，and was in every way an unconventional and terrifying driver． Mrs．Phillips used then to tell us：“Her Ladyship ran into the back of a milk-cart yesterday；but it wasn't much hurt”；or“A policeman stopped her Ladyship because she was on the wrong side of the road；but she said she didn't know what the white Line on the road meant，so he explained arld Let her go on．”Mrs．Phillips must have had an excellent Intelligence Service at her command，for the stories were always true enough．

All her life,my mother wanted busy children.It was very important that her house should remain at all times clean and tidy.

You could turn your back for a moment in my mother’s house,leave a half-written letter on the dining room table,a magazine open on the chair,and turn around to find that my mother had “put it back where it belonged,”as she explained.

My wife,one of her first visits to my mother’s house,placed a packet of biscuits on an end table and went to the kitchen to fetch a drink.When she returned,she found the packet had been removed.Confused(疑惑的),she set down her drink and went back to the kitchen for more biscuits,only to return to find that her drink had disappeared.Up to then she had guessed that everyone in my family held onto their drinks,so as not to make water rings on the end tables.Now she knows better.

These disappearances had a confusing effect on our family.We were all inclined to(有……的倾向) forgetfulness,and it was common for one of us,upon returning from the bathroom,to find that every sign of his work in progress had disappeared suddenly.“Do you remember what I was doing?”was a question frequently asked,but rarely answered.

Now my sister has developed a second-hand love of clean windows,and my brother does the cleaning in his house,perhaps to avoid having to be the one to lift his feet.I try not to think about it too much,but I have at this later time started to dust the furniture once a week.

We have all become busy persons.

A.she had already finished them

B.my mother had taken them away

C.she forgot where she had left them

D.someone in my family was holding them

3.The underlined part in the fifth paragraph suggests that my sister _______.

A.is happy to clean windows

B.loves to clean used windows

C.is fond of clean used windows

D.likes clean windows as my mother did

4.This passage mainly tells us that _______.

A.my mother often made us confused

B.my family members had a poor memory

C.my mother helped us to form a good habit

D.my wife was surprised when she visited my mother
