Everyone gathered around and Paddy read out loud, slowly, his tone growing sadder and sadder．The little  headline said: BOXER  RECEIVFS LIFF SENTENCE．

Frank Cleary, aged 26,professional boxer, was today found guilty of the murder of Albert  Cumming, aged 32,laborer ,last July．The jury （陪审团）reached its decision after only ten minutes, recommending the most sever punishment the court could give out．It was, said the judge, a simple case．Cumming and Cleary had quarreled violently at the Harbour Hotel on July 23rd and police saw Cleary kicking at the head of the unconscious Cumming． When arrested, Cleary was drunk but clear-thinking…

Cleary was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour ．Asked if he had anything to say , Cleary answered，“Just don't tell my mother．”

"It happened over three years ago, " Paddy said helplessly． No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do．“Just don't tell my mother,” said Fee numbly．"And no one did! Oh．God! My poor, poor Frank!"

Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said． “Fee dear, pack your things．We'll go to see him．"

She half-rose before sinking back, her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead．"I can't go ．"  she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there． "It would kill him to see me．I know him so well - his pride, his ambition．Let him bear the shame alone, it's what he wants． We've got to help him keep his secret． What good will it do him to see us? "

Paddy was still weeping．but not for Frank, for the life which had gone from Fee's face, for the dying in her eyes．Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune ,always stood between Fee and himself． He was the cause of her withdrawal from his hart and the hearts of his children．

Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away． But Paddy's love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank．

So he said． " Well, Fee, we won't go．But we must make sure he is taken care of． How about if Iwrite to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?

       The eyes didn't liven , but a faint pink stole into her cheeks  “Yes, Paddy, do that. Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out．Perhaps it would ease Frank to think for certain that we don't know．”

66．Which of the following is true according to the passage?

    A．Frank was found guilty of murder because he was a professional boxer．

    B．The family didn't find out what happened to Frank until three years later

    C．The jury and the judge disagreed on whether Frank had committed murder．

    D．Frank didn't want his family to find out what happened because Paddy disliked him．

67．Paddy didn't cry for Frank because he thought        .

     A．Frank did kill someone and deserved the punishment

    B ．Frank should have told Fee what had happened

    C．what had happened to Frank was killing Fee

    D．Frank had always been a man of bad moral character

68．Which of the following suggests that Fee was deeply shocked by what happened to Frank?

    A． " Her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead．"

     B． " Let him bear the shame alone , its what he wants．"

     C．"Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee , Frank took it away "

     D．"The eyes didn't liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks "

69．"She half-rose before sinking back…" （in Paragraph 6） shows that____．

    A．Fee was so heart-broken that she could hardly stand up

    B ．Fee didn't want to upset Paddy by visiting Frank

    C ．Fee couldn't leave her family to go to see Frank
