     "Excuse me," said the young man, standing shyly at the open church door. "I'm here to   1   an Easter
basket for my daughter. Am I in the   2 place?" "Well, we have baskets,   3 they're not East baskets for
kids; they're food baskets," I explained.
     That morning I had arrived at St. Michael's Church in Carmichael, California, to help   4 the baskets
to needy families for Easter. To make sure the needy would   5   the offer, we had handed out numbers
to them   6   matched the basket they were supposed to receive. Each one contained a full Easter dinner-a
whole ham, potatoes, bread, vegetables and a pie- enough food to help   7 a family for a week.
     "Why don't you come in?" I said to the man. He looked   8 . He   9   his head, "I can't. My daughter is
waiting for me over there. I'm  10  for the food, but  11  I heard you were giving away baskets for Easter,
well, I thought they would be Easter baskets for  12 ." He continued, "I  13  my daughter one, and I wanted
to surprise her."
     I felt bad, but there was  14  we could do. The man handed me his  15 , and I walked over to the baskets.
A bulge (凸出) in one of the baskets caught my  16 . What was that? I wondered. Leaning over and looking
more  17 , I could see, unmistakably, an Easter basket-filled with candy, chocolate and Easter eggs-decorated
with ribbons (丝带). One of the  18  must have added it by mistake! I thought. Then I looked at the man's
number in my  19 . Well, he'll be...
     "Happy Easter," I said to the man, handing him the only food basket with an Easter basket inside-the very
same basket with his number on it. "Someone already knew just  20  you need."

Oh, boy! Time for a game now． oldest brother is the seeker so k have to hide extra good because he’s smart and will find me quickly．But where? Behind the garage won’t work. The barn is too easy. Wait, I know. The door leading under the porch is perfect. No one would look for me under there.
It smells unpleasant under this porch． Wish I had picked another place to hide． Smelly cats! Too late now, I can hear brother seeking everyone out. I’ll just sit here quiet as a mouse. Hah hah hah! I can hear you out by the barn! You’ll never find me over there!
It’s been a while and he hasn’t found me yet. What’s that I hear? Now all my brothers are looking for me. They’ve all been caught, but not me. They’ll never trick me into coming out to catch me. Wait, is that Dad I hear calling my name? Oh no, now I hear someone going to call Grandpa to help look for me. I’m not coming out now because I’m in really big trouble.
What to do? If I come out and say I heard them calling me, I’ll be in big trouble. Think, think! How do I get out of trouble? I know what to do! I’ll tell them I fell asleep while waiting. Is that Grandpa’s voice? Heh heh heh! Now’s my chance. I’ll crawl out slowly and rub my eyes. Now that I see Grandpa go towards me quickly, I say. “I feel asleep.”
“Oh! You had us all worried!” says Grandpa. “You little devil, I’m just glad you’re all right, but next time try not to fall asleep and scare us like that, okay?” says Dad. Whew! I pulled it off (成功). Now to keep my mouth shut. And I did, for over 42 years. Once in a while, a kid pulls the wool over people’s eyes. So that’s one of my little secrets I’ve never revealed before. Don’t tell anyone now!

It was at least two months before Christmas when nine-year-old Rose told her father and me that she
wanted a new bicycle. As Christmas drew nearer, her desire for a bicycle seemed to fade, or so we thought.
We bought the latest rage, Baby Sitter's Club dolls, and a doll house. Then, much to our surprise, on December
23rd, she said that she "really wanted a bike more than anything else." It was just too late, what with all the
details of preparing Christmas dinner and buying last-minute gifts, to take the time to select the "right bike" for
our litter girl. So here we were Christmas Eve around 9 p.m., with Rose and her six-year-old brother, Dylan,
nestled snug in their beds. Now we could only think of the bicycle and the disappointment of our child. "What
if I make a little bicycle out of clay (泥) and write a note that she could trade (互相交换) the clay model in for
a real bike?" Her dad asked. "This is an expensive item and she is 'such a big girl,' it would be much better for
her to pick it out." So he spent the next four hours painstakingly working with clay to make a tiny bike. On
Christmas morning, we were excited for Rose to open the little hear shaped package with the beautiful red and
white clay bike and the note. Finally, she opened it and read the note aloud. "Does this mean that I trade in this
bike that Daddy made me for a real one?" Beaming, I said, "Yes." Rose had tears in her eyes when she replied,
"I could never trade in this beautiful bicycle that Daddy made me. I'd rather keep this than get a real bike." At
that moment, we would have moved heaven and earth to buy her every bicycle on the planet!

1. Choose the right time order of the following events.
     a. The girl asked for a new bike.
     b. The girl opened the little heart shaped package.
     c. The parents bought the girl a modern and popular doll.
     d. The father made the girl a bike with clay.
     e. The girl would rather keep the clay bike than get a real one.

[ ]

A. a, b, c, e, d
B. a, c, d, b, e
C. a, c, b, d, e
D. a, b, d, c, e

2. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

[ ]

A. The parents wanted the girl to have the clay bike forever.
B. Tears were in the girl's eyes because she didn't like the present at all.
C. The girl never lost her desire for a bike.
D. The parents paid little attention to the daughter's desire for a bike.

3. Why did Dad make the clay bicycle?

[ ]

A. He wanted his daughter to buy a real one.
B. He didn't want to disappoint his daughter.
C. He thought his daughter would like it.
D. He wanted to give his daughter a surprise.

4. What can be inferred from the last sentence?

[ ]

A. The parents were not happy and encouraged.
B. The parents didn't feel comfortable and relaxed.
C. The parents were moved and felt proud of the girl.
D. The parents felt disappointed and sorry for the girl.
