阅读理解

My dear son,

    Your letter of last week reached us yesterday, and I only have $13 left at present, which I will send to you with this letter. I may sell the other pig next week and meet the need of what you wanted. I will probably have to wear the old overcoat to meetings again this winter, but that doesn't matter as long as you are getting education(教育).

    I want you to be well educated so that you can go anywhere and spell the hardest word. I want you to be able to go among the Romans or the Medes and Persians and talk to any of them in their own language. I never had any advantages when I was a boy, but your mother and I decided that we would support(支持) your learning no matter how much it may take though it means cutting down our daily living costs.

    I hope you will get your education as cheap as you can, for it is a big job for your mother and me to pay the school fees. I knew education comes high but I didn't know the clothes also cost so much. Now look at that basketball suit, and that bathing suit, and that lawn-tennis suit, I don't care about the money, because you say a young man can't really educate himself successfully and completely without them, but I wish you'd send home what you get through with this fall, and I will wear them through the winter under my other clothes. We have much colder winters here than we used to, or else I am failing in bodily health. Last winter I tried to go through without underclothes, the way I did when I was a boy, but a Manitoba wave came down our way and picked me out of a crowd.

    I am not much of a mean man, so you will have to excuse this letter. We are all quite well, except your old grandpa, whose shoulders badly hurt, and hope this will find you enjoying the same great blessing.

Your father

A、ask his parents to wear more clothes in winter B、show his great concern about his grandpa's health C、ask his parents for money to buy some new clothes D、tell his parents about his present performance at school

(4)、What do we know about the father from the letter?
A、He is actually very mean with his money. B、He is quite worried about the high school fees. C、He likes to do whatever he can to support his son. D、He cares a lot about his son's grades at school.

 阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出能填入相应空白处的最佳选项。

One day, a(n) 1 woman came in the store where I worked. I welcomed her to the store, and she immediately started up a conversation, telling me her name was Barbara and asking me about my day. I stepped out to walk with her and nodded along while she 2 .

As we chatted, Barbara stopped to look at a shirt, "I really like the pattern. I used to wear colors like this when I was younger."

I asked, "Oh? What changed?"

Barbara chuckled (轻笑). "Well, as I started to get older, these sorts of clothes just didn't look good on me anymore. Maybe it will 3 for you, since you're a very pretty young girl."

"Don't say that, Barbara! You're still very beautiful."

Laughing, Barbara replied, "Thank you, sweet girl, but it's all right. I'll just 4 to what I normally wear. Patterns like this are made for young people like you."

I always hate it when older people believe their 5 is ugly. Older women buy wrinkle (皱纹) correctors, dye (染) the white and silver out of their hair, and do everything they can to cover their age until they 6 and say to themselves, "I'm just old and ugly now."

I don't see things that way at all. So, I 7 her to try it on.

When Barbara stepped out of the dressing room, I was 8 . The dress fit her 9 perfectly, the colors brought out the warmth in her skin, and most importantly, she looked really, really happy in it. She didn't just like the dress; she liked HERSELF in the dress, clearly feeling more 10 . She even turned in a circle to show us how the skirt flared (展开)!

Before Barbara left, she said, "Thank you for making me feel forty years younger today."
