Bob,my younger brother, stays happy at home all day, staring at television.Because he has been brain-damaged from birth,he cannot 1 , hear and can see poorly through his remaining eye.
On a hot summer morning,Mum had written“VISIT GRANDMA”for Bob in large letters 2 we left for the nursing home.No one expected Bob to 3 the fact that this would probably be our 4 visit to my grandma.
We stepped into my grandma’s nursing room after getting off the car.The strokes(中風(fēng))had left Grandma trembling and she couldn’t 5 to anything around her-her mouth opened,her wide eyes shut and opened quickly and stared but 6 she didn’t see us at all.
We stood round the bed,smiling 7 ,and comforting her that everything would go 8 .This is tile first time that I had had 9 to say all I wanted.but I could think of 10 to say to her.“We love you,Grandma.”I said finally, 11 if I was reaching her.
Bob was standing quietly next to the window with his face brilliant red and tears rolling 12 his face.Just a few moments later, he 13 the group and made his 14 to Grandma’s bed.He leaned over her withered(萎縮)body and took her cheeks 15 in his hands.He stood there silently with his head bowed,and his cheeks wet with tears.
Those of us with 16 ears were deaf to the volumes being spoken between Grandma and Bob in that wonderful.wordless 17 .
I felt a flood of warmth rushing deep inside me.How 18 had been about Bob these years! Far better than the rest of us,he knew the true 19 of our visit.He knew it perfectly because he grasped it with his heart 20 with his hands.He had tile freedom,courage and honesty to reach out in pain to Grandma.

Family traditions were important in our house, and none was more appreciated than the perfect Christmas tree.
“Dad, can we watch when you trim(修剪) the tree?” My eldest son, Dan, nine, and his seven-year-old brother John, asked.
“I won’t be cutting this year,” my husband Bob said. “Dan, you and John are old enough to measure things. Do it all by yourselves. Think you boys can handle it?”
Dan and John seemed to grow six inches in their chairs at the thought of such an amazing responsibility. “We can handle it,” Dan promised. “We won’t let you down.”
A few days before Christmas, Dan and John rushed in after school. They gathered the tools they’d need and brought them out to the yard, where the tree waited. I was cooking when I heard the happy sounds as the boys carried the tree into the living room. Then I heard the sound that every mother knows is trouble: dead silence. I hurried out to them. The tree was cut too short. John crossed his arms tight across his chest. His eyes filled with angry tears.
I felt worried. The tree was central to our holiday. I didn’t want the boys to feel ashamed every time they looked at it. I couldn’t lower the ceiling, and I couldn’t raise the floor either. There was no way to undo the damage done. Suddenly, a thought came to my mind, which turned the problem into the solution.
“We can’t make the tree taller,” I said. “But we can put it on a higher position.”
Dan nodded his head sideways. “We could put it on the coffee table. It just might work! Let’s try it!”
When Bob got home and looked at the big tree on top of the coffee table, Dan and John held their breath.
“What a good idea!” he declared. “Why didn’t I ever think of such a thing?”
John broke into a grin. Dan’s chest swelled with pride.
1.The underlined part “grow six inches” (Para. 4) implies the brothers felt .
A. proud B. nervous C. embarrassed D. Scared
2.What happened after the brothers moved the Christmas tree into the living room?
A. They rushed to school.
B. They began to decorate the tree.
C. They got angry with each other.
D. They found the tree was cut short.
3.How could the short tree be turned into a perfect one?
A. By making the tree taller.
B. By lowering the ceiling.
C. By placing it on a coffee table.
D. By raising the floor.
4.What Bob said in the last but one paragraph showed .
A. he was a little disappointed
B. he was too stupid to think of the idea
