The couple took a table near the back wall and started taking food off the tray. There was one hamburger, one order of French fries and one drink. The little old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in front of his wife. Then he carefully counted out the French fries, divided them in two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife. He took a sip at the drink and then set the cup down between them.

As the man began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the crowd began to get restless. You could tell what they were thinking, “That poor old couple. All they can afford is one meal for the two of them. ”

As the man began to eat his French fries, one young man stood and came over to the old couple ’ s table. He politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple to eat. The old man replied that they were just fine. They were used to sharing everything.

As the little old man finished eating and was wiping his face neatly with a napkin,the young man could stand it no longer. Again he came over to their table and offered to buy some food.

Dear SJ,

Losing a best friend is never easy.

Your problem, is not just that you miss your best friend, it is that you feel empty and lost without her friendship.

It takes time to get over a lost, and during that time, your mind is getting used to a new way of being. This is usually a good thing, even if it feels like a bad thing.

Now that you are on your own, you are being forced to learn to be by yourself and to rely upon your own inner voice for guidance. I am sure that this feels strange for you, but if you can hang on for a bit longer, it may work to your advantage.

Best friends are cool, but it is important to know the difference between missing someone and being too independent upon them.

At your age, girls do tend to stick together and having a good boyfriend may not yet be the better choice. Your friend is leaving you, her best friend, for a boyfriend. Boyfriends are completely different from best friends. The distinction is that boyfriends come and go, while girl friends often stay in your life throughout high school, and even afterwards. It is a completely different sort of bond.

I suggest that you take advantage of this period in your life to expand your horizons. Enjoy the freedom of having no best friend for a while, and hang with the group. By the time your former best friend breaks up with her boyfriend, you will be in a completely different place, a far better place.

And, by the way, next time you feel empty and lost, try to write about it in a diary. In several months, you will look back and read it with curiosity about yourself. “Who was I then, and what could I have been thinking?”

“Grandma, Grandma, tell us a story ! ”Four darling children sat by my feet, looking up at me expectantly.                                                                    Suddenly, we were interrupted clapping.“Terrific, ” the director said, stepping up the stage from the aisle(过道).“Except, could you kids face the audience a bit more? ”
The kids shifted to face the empty seats, which would be filled in a few days for the church play.“Perfect,” the director said. “Now, Grandma, read to your grandchildren.” A pang of sadness hit me. If' only I could read to my real grandchild!
I had a granddaughter, but I'd never met her. Sixteen years earlier my son was involved in a relationship that ended badly. But out of' it came a blessing: a baby girl named Lena. I hoped to be a grandmother to her-but shortly after the birth, the mother moved without any address left. Over  the years, I asked around town to try and find my son’s ex-wife (前妻),but it seemed that she didn’t want to be found.
I'd just joined this new church a week earlier and was at once offered the part of Grandma in the play. At least now I could pretend to be a grandma. The rehearsals went well, and finally the day of' the show arrived. The performance was great. “You all looked so natural up there, ”one of' my friends said.
Afterward, we went to the church basement for refreshments (茶点).I walked over to one of the girls in the play. Rehearsals had been such a whirlwind (一片忙乱) that we never really got to talk. “How's my granddaughter? ” I joked.
“Fine !” she answered. Just then, someone else walked up and asked the girl her name.
I wasn't sure I heard the girl's answer correctly. But it made me ask her another question.“What's your mother's name? ”
She told me, I was still in shock.“And what's your father's name? ”I asked. She told me.It was my son.
She'd only started going to that church a week before I did. Since that day of 'the play, we've stayed close. Not long ago, she even made me a great grandma.
【小题1】What was the author doing at the beginning of' the story?

A.Telling a story.B.Playing a game.
C.Preparing for a play.D.Acting in a movie.
【小题2】Why did the author feel “a pang of' sadness” at the words of' the director'?
A.The director's words reminded her of 'her lost granddaughter.
B.The director's words hurt her so badly.
C.She wished that she had a real grandchild.
D.The director wasn’t content with her performance.
【小题3】What happened in the church basement after the play'?
A.The author played a joke on Lena.
B.Lena treated the author as a friend.
C.The author got to know who Lena was.
D.Lena mistook the author for her grandmother.
【小题4】This passage is mainly organized in the pattern of           
A.time and events
B.contrast and conclusion
C.cause and effect
D.questions and answers
【小题5】We can infer that when writing the story, the author felt          .

“Grandma, Grandma, tell us a story ! ”Four darling children sat by my feet, looking up at me expectantly.                                                                    Suddenly, we were interrupted clapping.“Terrific, ” the director said, stepping up the stage from the aisle(过道).“Except, could you kids face the audience a bit more? ”

Afterward, we went to the church basement for refreshments (茶点).I walked over to one of the girls in the play. Rehearsals had been such a whirlwind (一片忙乱) that we never really got to talk. “How's my granddaughter? ” I joked.

“Fine !” she answered. Just then, someone else walked up and asked the girl her name.

I wasn't sure I heard the girl's answer correctly. But it made me ask her another question.“What's your mother's name? ”

She told me, I was still in shock.“And what's your father's name? ”I asked. She told me.It was my son.

She'd only started going to that church a week before I did. Since that day of 'the play, we've stayed close. Not long ago, she even made me a great grandma.

My boss’s daughter was studying in the Philippines. He asked me if my husband and I could take care of her. He thought his daughter would be able to improve her English communication skills in this way.

After days of thinking, we agreed. He then brought her here and left after 3 days. I thought that my boss’s daughter was well-mannered, but that was wrong.

After a month of staying in the Philippines, she started to show her true colors. When my husband asked her what she wanted for breakfast, she answered him in a rude way. From then on, we experienced fights at home. There was a time when we didn’t talk to her for a week as a punishment of not being good to us. What I hated most was that she didn’t care about other people’s feelings. She ate ahead of us when we were still working and didn’t leave anything for us. So we had to separate her food from ours to avoid such a problem.

The worst thing about her was that she shouted at us. I was wondering if she did this to her parents. We told this to her parents, but unfortunately I didn’t think that solved the problem. This situation lasted for almost 8 months. Our patience was tested during that time.

We tried to teach her everything we could to make her a better person, but I guess 8 months may not to be enough. We even tried to understand her and adjust for her, but it didn’t work. I just hope that she learned something from us and from other Filipinos.

  I'll never forget Easter 1946.I was fourteen, my little sister, Ocy, was twelve and my older sister, Darlene, was sixteen.We lived at home with our mother, and the four of us knew what it was to do without dad.My dad had died five years before, leaving Mom with no money and seven school-aged kids to raise.

  By 1946, my older sisters were married and my brothers had left home.A month before Easter, the pastor of our church announced that a special holiday offering would be taken to help a poor family.He asked everyone to save and give sacrificially.

  When we got home, we talked about what we could do.We decided to buy fifty pounds of potatoes and live on them for a month.This would allow us to save twenty dollars of our grocery money for the offering.Then we thought that if we kept our electric lights turned out as much as possible and didn't listen to the radio, we'd save money on that month's electric bill.

  The night before Easter, we were so excited we could hardly sleep.We didn't care that we wouldn't have new clothes for Easter; we had seventy dollars for the sacrificial offering.We could hardly wait to get to church!

  Finally we sat in church proudly.When the sacrificial offering was taken, we were sitting in the second row from the front.Mom put in the ten-dollar bill, and each of us kids put in a twenty-dollar bill.

  We sang all the way home from church.At lunch, Mom had a surprise for us.She had bought a dozen eggs, and we had boiled Easter eggs with our fried potatoes! Later that afternoon, the minister drove up in his car.Mom went to the door, talked with him for a moment, and then came back with an envelope in her hand.We asked what it was, but she didn't say a word.She opened the envelope and out fell a bunch of money.There were three crisp twenty-dollar bills, one ten-dollar bill and seventeen one-dollar bills.
