Four days passed，but no one came to see his father．The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him，so he burnt it that evening．
The next afternoon，someone knocked at the door．The boy opened it．A man was standing at the door and said，"Where is your father？"The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper．He could not find it．He suddenly remembered he had burnt it，so he shouted，"No more．"

"Burnt yesterday evening．"

点评 本篇文章都是细节推理题，答题的已给选项也一般不会和短文相关词语完全相同，需要考生自己理解句子，延伸推理出题目答案，比一般细节理解题偏难．
