Last weekend,my kids along with a few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car. My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of 1    other people's cars as well. It was pretty 2   outside and I had no plans to 3   staying in the bright sun. She 4    wanted to give lemonade (柠檬汽水) to passers-by for free. I had seen little kids 5   and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free. Although I felt 6   ,I decided to help her.

7   she asked me, "What if we 8   this a smile car wash? " I couldn't hold back my tears and 9    her and the other kids to go outside the house and come up with 10    ideas. While I kept myself busy drying the car,the gang walked up to me with a(n) 11    with beautiful images of smiles. They had "Free Car Wash" written on it and the 12    of their exercise was "smile". It was pretty moving to see a team of kids ranging 5-11 years with the 13    to do something for others.

All that seemed 14    and came right from their heart. Nothing seemed to 15    to them: their playtime, the heat outside―they just wanted to 16    others and do something nice in the community!

I helped them make some fresh lemonade and brought out some additional 17   to help clean cars. Passers-by were 18   and one even shouted back to them saying "God Bless You,my kids..." One of them even tried giving them 5 dollars,which they refused. A pretty heartwarming 19    

I feel blessed by being 20   by such wonderful and loving souls.

"It was all his own idea," says Pat Peters, the 38-year-old wife of Palo Alto,California high school football coach Bob Peters,39. Bob had just drawn up a "motherhood contract" ―a document stating that for 70 days this summer he would take over the care and feeding of the couple' s four children,plus all household chores. Although he didn,t even know how to make coffee when he signed, he was quite confident. (He thought the experience would make a nice book.)

After 40 of the 70 days,he was ready to give up. "I was beaten down,completely humbled," admits Peters. Three weeks later he spoke to the local press (also part of the bargain) ,stating,"Not only is motherhood a difficult task,not only is it never-ending,it is an impossible job for any normal human being."

Bob and Pat were high school sweethearts. After they were married in 1960, she worked as a

secretary to help put him through university. Since then Bob has been the football and wrestling coach at Palo Alto,s Cubberley High School while Pat raised the kids.

Then two years ago Pat went back to work as a secretary at Cubberley. "I had been around children so much, "she sighs, "I couldn't talk to a grown-up." She continued to run the household,however until Bob signed the contract,whereupon she decided to relax and enjoy it. Although Peters had consulted (咨询) with his school' s home economics teachers and the head of the cafeteria(食堂) ,his meals were sometimes a disaster."1 tried to slip the butter I,d forgotten under the eggs after they were fiying," he says. For the last three weeks,the family ate out a lot.

As for housekeeping, a home economics teacher had told Bob that a room always looks clean if the bed is made."1 found an easier way―I shut the doors," he says. Soon the kids were wearing the same clothes for a week. I made them wear their shirts inside out,and when we went to pick up Pat at work they turned them right side out so they would look clean.

Now that Bob has publicly admitted he was wrong,and he is routinely(曰常地) sharing the child-raising and household tasks with Pat. The tentative(暂定的) title of his book about the sum?mer is taken from something he shouted at the kids one day.

     A.  Pat complained a lot about her doing the housework all by herself

    B.  Bob loved taking care of children and wanted his wife to have a good rest

    C.  they agreed that husband and wife should share household tasks

     A.   pay a certain amount of money

    B.   admit publicly he was wrong about motherhood

    C.   say sorry to his wife

    D.   do all the housework for years

(   ) 10. What can we learn about Pat Peters?
