This is a story from 28 years ago. My dad was a used car salesman. Every Thursday night, he would head off to Shreveport, LA for an auction. Most of the time, I drove a car over there for him so he could sell it at the auction.

One day, I was riding with my dad when he noticed a hitch-hiker with a backpack. Without hesitation, he pulled the car over and offered him a ride. Dad asked him his name, and proceeded to talk to him about all sorts of things. Dad asked him where he was going. The hitch-hiker told him he was heading for the west. I can’t recall why but he told Dad a lot of things that had occurred to him and that persuaded him to make that decision. He talked about the tragic events that occurred to him several years before. He was low in spirits, but I could see that the hitch-hiker’s attitude was changing as someone was really listening to him.

We drove 45 minutes before the hitch-hiker got off. We pulled over and Dad told him to keep his head up and things would start looking up for him soon. He reached into his pocket and handed the hitch-hiker a twenty-dollar bill. The guy smiled. He nearly lit up right there on the cold, dark highway.

We drove on and my dad did not say a single thing. I was still completely amazed by what I had just witnessed. I was always told by everyone never to pick up a hitch-hiker and yet my dad did it every single time he saw one. While reflecting upon that story I came to understand that just one single kind act could change someone’s life, and I am sure that my father’s deed made that poor man’s day.

The underlined words “that decision” in Para. 2 refer to ___________.

A. catching the car                 B. heading for the west

C. talking about his experiences       D. driving 45 minutes

What made the hitch-hiker become less upset?

A. The writer’s father offering him a free ride

B. The writer’s father really listening to him

C. The writer’s father agreeing to driving him to his destination

D. The writer’s father talking to him about all sorts of things

C. admired his father               D. couldn’t understand

Which of the following words cannot be used to describe the father?

A. willing to help     B. easy-going    C. far-sighted   D. full of sympathy

C. prove his father is the best teacher

D. advise people to learn from their fathers

Last Sunday I made a visit to some new neighbors down the block. No specific purpose in mind, just an opportunity to sit at the kitchen table, have some tea and chat. As I did so, it occurred to me how rare the Sunday visit has become.
When I was a kid in the New Jersey of the 1960s, Sunday visits were routine. Most stores were closed, almost nobody worked, and the highways, as a result, were not the desperate steeplechases(障碍赛跑) they have become today. My family normally traveled eight city blocks to the home of my grandmother—the same house my father was raised in, where adults would sit on the front porch and chat while we children played hide-and-seek.
The Sunday visit was something to desire strongly. It was the repetition to church, our reward for an hour of devotion, an opportunity to take advantage of the fact that Dad was not at work, we were not in school, and there were no chores that couldn’t wait until Monday. Sunday was, indeed, different from all the other days of the week, because everyone seemed to be on the same schedule, which means that there was one day when everyone seemed to have time for everybody else.
Sunday as a day of rest is, or was, so deeply rooted in the culture that it’s surprising to consider that, in a short span of time, it has almost entirely lost this association. In my childhood, it was assumed that everyone would either be home or visiting someone else’s home on Sunday.
But now the question is, “What do you plan to DO this Sunday?” The answer can range from going to the mall to participating in a road race to jetting to Montreal for lunch. If one were to respond, “I’m making a Sunday visit to family,” such an answer would feel sepia-toned, an echo from another era.
I suppose I should be grateful to live in Maine, a state of small towns, abundant land and tight relationships. Even though folks work as hard here as they do anywhere else, the state’s powerfully rural cast(特质)still harbors at least remnants of the ethic of yesterday’s America, where people had to depend on one another in the face of economic vagaries(反复无常的情况)and a challenging environment.
【小题1】The writer’s general impression of the Sunday in the past was a day when _______.

A.everyone was paying a visit to some relative far away
B.everyone seemed to be free and could have some leisure
C.Dad was not at work while Mom was busy cleaning the house
D.nearly every adult would go to church and children were not at school
【小题2】In the fourth paragraph, the writer compares the response “I’m making a Sunday visit to family” to an echo from another era because _______.
A.people nowadays prefer staying at home on Sunday
B.such answers are rarely heard in our modern society
C.people in the city dislike being disturbed on Sunday
D.visiting someone on Sunday might take a lot of time
【小题3】From the last paragraph we may infer that _______.
A.people in Maine suffer more from economic depression and the changed environment
B.people in Maine has abandoned their tradition and lived an absolute new life
C.land in Maine is short, thus the relationship between people is tense
D.people in Maine always help each other when they are in need
【小题4】.Which word we may use to describe the writer’s attitude towards the Sunday today?
A.Unsatisfied.B.Anxious.C.Treasured.D.Teased.

He was 50 years old when I was born, and a "Mr. Mom" long before anyone had a name for it. I didn't know why he was home instead of Mom, but I was young and the only one of my friends who had their dads around. I considered myself very lucky.

  Dad did so many things for me during my grade-school years. He asked the school bus driver to pick me up at my house instead of the usual bus stop that was six blocks away. He always had my lunch ready for me when I came home----usually a peanut butter and sandwich that was shaped for the season. My favorite was at Christmas. The sandwiches would be covered with green sugar and cut in the shape of a tree.

  As I got a little older and tried to gain my independence, I wanted to move away from those "childish" signs of his love. But he wasn't going to give up. In high school and no longer able to go home for lunch, I began taking my own. Dad would get up a little earlier and make it for me. I never knew what to expect. The outside of the bag might be covered with his way of a mountain scene (it became his trademark)or a heart with the word "Dad-n-Angle" in its center. Inside there would be a note with that same heart or an “I love you”. Many times he would write a joke or a riddle. He always had some silly saying to make me smile and let me know that he loved me.

   I used to hide my lunch so no one would see the bag or read the note, but that didn't last long. One of my friends saw the note one day, caught it, and passed it around the lunch room. My face burned. To my astonishment, the next day all my friends were waiting to see the note. From the way they acted, I think they all wished they had someone who showed them that kind of love. I was so proud to have him as my father. Throughout the rest of my high school years, I received those notes, and still have a majority of them.

    And still it didn't end.When I left home for college(the last one to leave), I thought the messages would stop.But my friends and I were glad that his action continued.

    I began getting letters almost every Friday.The front-desk worker always knew who the letters were from----the return address said, “The Hunk.” Many times the envelopes were addressed in crayon, and along with the enclosed letters were usually drawings of our cat and dog, pictures of him and mom and if I had been home the weekend before, of me racing around town with friends and using the house as a hotel.He also had his mountain scene and the hearten-cased inscription (题词),“Dad-n-Angie”.
