My father didn’t have to say anything. I knew he was upset from his ________.

I cheated on a unit test in math class this morning during second period with Mr. Burke. Afterward, I was too sick to eat lunch just thinking about it.
I came straight home from school, went to my room, and lay on the floor trying to decide whether it would be better to run away from home now or after supper. Mostly I wished I was dead. It wasn't even an accident that I cheated.
Yesterday Mr. Burke announced there'd be a unit test and anyone who didn't pass would have to come to school on Saturday, most particularly me, since I didn't pass the last unit test. I did plan to study just to prove to him that I'm plenty smart—which I am mostly—except in math.
Anyway, I got my desk ready to study on . Just when I was ready to work, Nicho came into my room with our new rabbit and it jumped on my desk and knocked the flashcards all over the floor. What a mess! Nicho and I finally took the rabbit outside but then Philip came to my room and also Marty from next door and before long it was dinner.
After dinner my father said I could watch a special on television if I'd done all my homework. Of course I said I had. That was the beginning. I felt terrible telling my father a lie about the homework.
It was nine o'clock when I got up to my room and that was too late to study for the unit test so I lay in my bed with the light off and decided what I would do the next day when I was in Mr. Burke's math class not knowing the 8- and 9-times tables. So, you see, the cheating was planned after all.
The next day, I'd go into class as usual, acting like things were going just great. I'd sit down next to Stanley Plummer—he is so smart in math it makes you sick—and from time to time, I'd glance over at his paper to copy the answers.
Lying on the floor of my room, I begin to think that probably I've been bad all along. It just took this math test to clinch it. I'll probably never tell the truth again. I tell my mother I'm sick when she calls me to come down for dinner. She doesn't believe me, but puts me to bed anyhow. I lie there in the early winter darkness wondering what terrible thing I'll be doing next when my father comes in and sits down on my bed.
"What's the matter?" he asks. "I've got a stomachache," I say. Luckily, it's too dark to see his face. "Is that all?" "Yeah." "Mommy says you've been in your room since school." "I was sick there too," I say. "She thinks something happened today and you're upset." That's the thing that really drives me crazy about my mother. She knows things sitting inside my head the same as if I was turned inside out.
"Well," my father says. I can tell he doesn't believe me. "My stomach is feeling sort of upset." I hedge. "Okay," he says and he pats my leg and gets up.
Just as he shuts the door to my room I call out to him in a voice I don't even recognize as my own. "How come?" he calls back not surprised or anything. So I tell him I cheated on this math test. To tell the truth, I'm pretty much surprised at myself. I didn't plan to tell him anything.
He doesn't say anything at first and that just about kills me. I'd be fine if he'd spank me or something. And then he says I'll have to call Mr. Burke. It's not what I had in mind. "Now?" I ask surprised. "Now," he says. He turns on the light and pulls off my covers. "I'm not going to," I say.
But I do it. I call Mr. Burke, and I tell him exactly what happened, even that I decided to cheat the night before the test. He says I'll come on Saturday to take another test, which is okay with me, and I thank him a whole lot for being understanding and all.
"Today I thought I was turning into a criminal," I tell my father when he turns out my light. Sometimes my father kisses me good night and sometimes he doesn't. I never know. But tonight he does.

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．”

    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
