Dear Dad,
Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet as I selected and read, it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.
You'll soon be 84 years old, Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together. I haven't always been with you on Father's Day but I've always been with you in my heart.
You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.
The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear ( 档位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the Chevy whether you liked it or not. The police officer who sent me home, after you reported the Chevy stolen, didn't have much tolerance for a stubborn 16 year old, while you were so tolerant about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.
Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine.
But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car. It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day.
I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and it's wishing that never had to end.
I love you, Dad.
Love,
Jenny

It was Sunday, so Dad and I were at the second-hand goods market, looking for tools, appliances(家用电器), and other things that needed cleaning.Some were broken; others, like silver cups, just needed to be cleaned and polished.It was 1974, and the Depression(经济大萧条) was very serious.Dad worked full-time at a factory, but the money wasn‘t enough.Dad had tried a second job for a while, but he found it was too hard on the family.One day, he had an excellent idea that set me on a lifelong course of making money to support myself.Standing beside a crowded table at the second-hand goods market, I looked over an ancient manual sewing machine.Someone had changed it to run on electric power.It was much older than Mom‘s machine, but it looked like it had quality and a long life built into it.“Dad!” I called.“This is a beauty!”
Dad walked over, pulling a cart full of audio equipment, tools, worn-out appliances, and what appeared to be a block of dull kitchen knife.“What have you got, Son?” I described what I saw and what I figured I could do to x the beauty up.Dad paid for my discovery, and we headed home.
Every day after school I worked on the ancient machine, and every night Dad and I sharpened tools and knives, sanded off rust, polished metal, and replaced missing parts from various items.The next Saturday we headed off, as we did every weekend, to that same market, where we sold the treasures we‘d purchased the week before—at a tidy profit.My antique beauty brought in more money than anything else, and Dad let me keep every penny.
Dad‘s gone now, but I can never thank him enough.Even if we hadn‘t needed the extra money Dad and I brought in, I wouldn‘t have traded those weekends for all the picnics or Little League games in St.Louis—not in a million years.
1.Dad‘s good idea was .
A. getting a second job for a while
B. having his son get an after-school job
C. saving money by buying only used items

We arrived at the hospital only to find Dad weak, but his smile was as sure as ever. My husband and I had to work, so our relatives would help him get home from the hospital and look after him. But I wanted Dad to know that we cared about him, too, even when we weren’t with him.
Then I remembered a family tradition (传统) when our children were small. When leaving their grandparents’ home, each child would write a love note for their grandparents to find after we were gone. They hid notes in the food box, or even in the fridge. For days their grandparents would smile as they discovered these notes of the children’s love.
So as I cleaned Dad’s room downstairs before he got home, I began writing notes. Some showed my love. Most notes were in his room downstairs where he would be able to find, but one note was hidden upstairs under his pillow. “Dad, if you have found this note, you must be feeling better. We are so glad!”
My notes were a reminder (提醒的事物) of our love for Dad. Just like his medicines made him better physically (身体上), these would improve his mental (精神的) health. Several weeks later, I made a phone call to Dad and asked what he was doing. He said, “I’ll tell you what I’m doing. I am just reading the note you left under my pillow upstairs!”
64. Which of the following did the author NOT do for her father?
A. Writing notes. B. Driving her father home.
C. Making phone calls. D. Helping to clean her father’s room.
65. The underlined word “these” (in Paragraph 4) refers to “______”.
A. medicines B. the relatives’ care and help
C. notes D. delicious foods
66. The author hid most notes _____.
A. in Dad’s room downstairs B. in the food box
C. in the fridge D. under Dad’s pillow upstairs
67. From the passage we can know the author’s notes couldn’t ______.
A. show her love for Dad B. make Dad remember something
C. make Dad healthier mentally D. improve Dad’s physical health
