Dear Daddy，
You’ve been gone for six years and I’ve had time to think.Now I’m ready to write this letter to you.
For a long time after Mom died，I thought I liked her more because I didn’t like your tough guy attitude and I thought that her softer side was more desirable.In my 15yearold’s mind，I thought you could have stopped my mother from drinking herself to death.Instead，you were off playing tennis and working.Later，I realized that no one could make someone stop drinking.Support is important，but at the end of the day，it is a choice.You were just doing your best.
What I have learned is that I am much like you.You taught me selfconfidence.I know if I am prepared to work hard enough for something，I will be successful.This is no small thing.What I’ve realized since you died is that you were always there for me.You fought to ensure that I got my place on the Quebec badminton team that I had earned.When I got divorced，you came up to see if I had what I needed to take care of the boys and you paid off my car.
You taught me not to spend money I don’t have.I’ve always kept to that rule.It has served me well.We always had a good home to live in，nice vacations，and everything we needed and most of what we wanted.
You were not a perfect parent and neither am I．My children are much more thankful than I ever was.I am thankful that I had you as my dad.I am still Daddy’s girl and I am proud of it.

Soon Tommy's parents, who had recently separated (分居), would arrive for a meeting on his failing schoolwork and 16 behavior. Neither parent knew that I had called up 17 .
Tommy, an only child, had 18 been happy, cooperative, and an excellent student. How could I make his father and mother 19 that his recent failing grades 20 a brokenhearted child's reaction to his respected parents' separation and possible 21 ?
Tommy's mother came in and 22 one of the chairs I had placed near my desk. Then the father 23 and was obviously surprised to see his wife. They pointedly(显然) ignored each other.
As I gave a detailed 24 of Tommy's behavior and schoolwork, I prayed for the 25 words to bring these two together to help them see what they were doing to their son. 26 somehow the words wouldn't come.
I found a crumpled (弄皱的), tear-stained 27 stuffed (塞) in the back of Tommy's desk. Writing covered both sides, a single 28 scribbled (乱写) over and over.
Silently I smoothed(弄平) it out and gave it to Tommy's mother. She read it and then without a word handed it to her husband. He 29 . Then his face softened. He studied the scribbled words for 30 seemed a future life.
At last he folded the paper carefully and 31 his wife's outstretched(伸出的) hand. She wiped the tears from her 32 and smiled up at him. I also couldn't keep back tears, but 33 seemed to notice.
In this way I used the words to 34 that family. On the sheet of yellow copy paper 35 with the painful outpouring of a small boy's troubled heart, it said.
"Dear Mother ... Dear Daddy ... I love you ... I love you ... I love you."

Ever since Jerusha started her college, she began to write letters. Through a series of letters, from freshman to senior in college, she shared her life and study with an unknown gentleman, who never wrote back. Here is the very first letter.
| Dear Mr. Kind, Here I am! I traveled yesterday for four hours in a train. It's a funny experience. I never rode in one before. College is the biggest, most confusing place — I get lost whenever I leave my room. I will tell you more later when I'm feeling less puzzled. Now I want to write a letter first just to get me familiar to you. It seems strange to be writing letters to somebody you don't know. It seems strange for me to be writing letters at all — I've never written more than three or four in my life, so please overlook it if they are not a model kind. Before leaving yesterday morning, Mrs. Lippett and I had a very serious talk. She told me how to behave, especially towards the kind gentleman who is doing so much for me. I must take care to be very respectful. I have been thinking of you a great deal this summer; having somebody take an interest in me after all these years makes me feel as though I had found a sort of family. It seems as though I belonged to somebody now, and it's a very comfortable feeling. I must say, however, that when I think about you, my imaqination has very little to work upon. There are just three things that I know: I .You are tall. II .You are rich. III. You hate girl. I suppose I might call you Dear Mr. Girl-Hater. Only that's rather unpleasant to me. Or Dear Mr. Rich-Man, but that's unpleasant to you, as though money were the only important thing about you. Maybe you won't stay rich all your life; But at least you will stay tall all your life! So I decide to call you Dear Daddy-long-legs. I hope you won't mind. It's just a private pet name — we won't tell Mrs. Lippett. The ten o'clock bell is going to ring in two minutes. Our day is divided by bells. We eat and sleep and study by bells. There it goes! Lights out. Good night. You can see how strictly I obey rules due to my training in the John Grier Home. Yours most respectfully, Jerusha Abbott |
| A．To get her familiar to him. |
| B．To present her thankfulness to him. |
| C．To share her brand-new college life with him. |
| D．To apologize to him for not writing letters too often. |
| A．burst into laughter | B．think it acceptable |
| C．criticize the writer | D．inform the man |
| A．the man she writes to is dull and boring |
| B．she is not familiar with the one she writes to |
| C．it is not interesting at all to write to a stranger |
| D．she lacks imagination when it comes to writing a letter |
| A．curious | B．light-hearted | C．serious | D．skeptical |
