Three Boys and a Dad
Brad closed the door slowly as Sue left home to visit her mother. Expecting a whole day to relax, he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favourite TV talk show on his first day off in months. “This will be like a walk in the park,” he’d told his wife. “I’ll look after the kids, and you can go visit your mom.”
Things started well, but just after eight o’clock, his three little “good kids”—Mike, Randy, and Alex—came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted “breakfast, daddy.” When food had not appeared within thirty seconds, Randy began using his spoon on Alex’s head as if it were a drum. Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat(节拍). Mike chanted “Where’s my toast, where’s my toast” in the background. Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.
Life became worse after breakfast. Mike wore Randy’s underwear on his head. Randy locked himself in the bathroom, while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. Nobody could find clean socks, although they were before their very eyes. Someone named “Not Me” had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes. Brad knew the talk show had already started.
By ten o’clock, things were out of control. Alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter. Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his colour pencils. Randy, thankfully, appeared to be reading quietly in the family room,but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands. Brad Realized that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.
At exactly 11:17, Brad called the daycare centre (日托所).“I suddenly have to go into work and my wife’s away. Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes?” The answer was obviously “yes” because Brad was smiling.
【小题1】When his wife left home, Brad expected to ______            .

A.go out for a walk in the park.B.watch TV talk show with his children.
C.enjoy his first day off work.D.read the newspaper to his children.
【小题2】Which of the following did Randy do?
A.Drawing on the wall.B.Eating apple jam.
C.Feeding the fish.D.Reading in a room.
【小题3】Why did Brad ask the daycare centre for help?
A.Because he wanted to clean up his house.
B.Because he suddenly had to go to his office.
C.Because he found it hard to manage his boys home.
D.Because he had to take his wife back.
【小题4】This text is developed______       
A.by space.B.by comparison.C.by process.D.by time.

It was the golden season. I could see the yellow leaves falling with the cool wind. For others, it is a/an       season, while for me, it is an annoying season. Tired from preparing for Postgraduate Entrance Examination, I decided to have a       along the Yanjiang Road in my university.

  “Autumn is a lonely season and life is       . The days in this season always get me down ”, I was in deep thought when the sound of a guitar       into my ears, like a stream flowing from the mountains. I was so surprised that I ran to see what it was. A young girl, sitting on the lawn, was       in playing her guitar. The music was so attractive that I listened quietly.

   Lost in the music, I did not realize that I had been standing for so long. But my _  __ did not seem to disturb her. Leaves were still falling. Every day when I passed by the lawn, I would see her playing her guitar. During the rest of the days in the season, life became interesting and I could  _ _  the courses carefully. Though we did not know each other, I thought we were always good friends.

   Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening  _ _ , the sound suddenly stopped. To my astonishment, the girl came       to me.

  “You must like the music,” she said.

  “Yes, you play very well. Why did you stop?” I asked.

   Suddenly, a __ _ expression appeared on her face and I could feel something unusual.

    “I came here just to have a rest because I failed in the college entrance examination. I felt very disappointed. And it was your listening every day _ _ encouraged me,” she said, “and I have to go tomorrow.”

  “__ __, it was your playing that gave me a meaningful autumn and helped me believe that I have the ability to pass the Postgraduate Entrance Examination.” I answered, “I think it was God who gave us the chance to know each other and we should be good friends

   She smiled and I smiled.

   Since then, I have never seen her again. I no longer passed by that __ _. Only thick leaves were _     behind. But I will always remember the __ _ of the girl. It was her appearance that helped me passed the Postgraduate Entrance Examination.

   We may encounter many people in our lives. Some are like a shooting star, but      so much light that they guide you in the correct _   ; some are like _  in you, they are always with you, but do not understand you. Just as a famous saying, many people     in your life, but only true friends leave footprints.

   I shall always __ __ the autumn, the girl and the sound of her guitar. I know she will always be my best friend.
