Once when I was a teenager, my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus. One family between us and the ticket counter made a big impression on me. There were eight children, all probably under the age of 12. The children were standing in line, two-by- two behind their parents, holding hands. They were excitedly jabbering about the clowns(小丑), elephants and other acts they would see that night.

The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He proudly responded, "Please let me buy eight children's tickets and two adult tickets so I can take my family to the circus."

The ticket lady told him the price. The wife's head dropped, and the man leaned a little closer and asked, "How much did you say?"

The ticket lady again told him the price.

The man didn't have enough money. How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight kids that he didn't have enough money to take them to the circus?

Seeing what was going on, my dad put his hand into his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground. (We were not wealthy in any sense of the word!) My father reached down, picked up the bill, tapped the man on the shoulder and said, "Excuse me, sir, this fell out of your pocket."

The man knew what was going on. He wasn't begging for money but certainly appreciated the help in a difficult, embarrassing situation. He looked straight into my dad's eyes, took my dad's hand in both of his, and he replied, "Thank you, thank you, sir. This really means a lot to me and my family."

My father and I went back to our car and drove home. We didn't go to the circus that night, but we didn't go without.

56.   The underlined word “jabbering”( in Para 1) can be best replaced by “        ” .

A. imagining     B. talking     C. expecting     D. asking

57.   When the ticket lady told the price, the wife        .

A. hardly hear    B. hardly understand    C. was disappointed    D. was relaxed

58.   Which of the following words can be best used to describe the writer’s father?

A. Honest.        B. Kind.        C. Wise.        D. Faithful.

59.   We can infer from the last paragraph that?

A. The author and his father returned home with regret.

B. The author and his father were unhappy about missing the circus.

C. The author and his father were very happy with helping a man in a circus.

D. The author and his father returned home with another kind of joy and comfort.
