         A year after graduation, I was offered a position teaching a writing class. Teaching was a profession
    I had never seriously considered, though several of my stories had been published. I accepted the job
    without hesitation, as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr. Davis. My father went
    by the same name, and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused. "Wait a minute" someone might say, "are you talking about Mr. Davis the retired man, or Mr. Davis the respectable scholar?"
         The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given two weeks to prepare, a period I spent
    searching for briefcase (公文包) and standing before my full-length mirror, repeating the words, "Hello,
    class. I'm Mr. Davis." Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice. Sometimes I would sound
    experienced. But when the day finally came, my nerves kicked in and the true Mr. Davis was there. I
    sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a 12-year-old boy.
         I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves. I had cut them
    myself out of orange construction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I handed out the cards,
    and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required.
         "All right then," I said. "Okay, here we go." Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never
    thought beyond this moment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, offering their
    thoughts and opinions on the events of the day. I had imagined that I would sit at the edge of the desk,
    overlooking a forest of hands. Every student would yell. "Calm down, you'll all get your turn. One at a
    time, one at a time!"
         A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opinions, I inspected the students to pull out
    their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.
    1. The author took the job to teach writing because ______.
    A. he wanted to be expected
    B. he had written some stories
    C. he wanted to please his father
    D. he had dreamed of being a teacher
    2. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 2?
    A. He would be aggressive in his first class.
    B. He was well-prepared for his first class.
    C. He got nervous upon the arrival of his first class.
    D. He waited long for the arrival of his first class.
    3. Before he started his class, the author asked the students to ______.
    A. write down their suggestions on the paper cards
    B. cut maple leaves out of the construction paper
    C. cut some cards out of the construction paper
    D. write down their names on the paper cards
    4. What did the students do when the author started his class?
    A. They began to talk.
    B. They stayed silent.
    C. They raised their hands.
    D. They shouted to be heard.
    5. The author chose the composition topic probably because ______.
    A. he got disappointed with his first class
    B. he had prepared the topic before class
    C. he wanted to calm down the students
    D. he thought it was an easy topic

         The Board Meeting had come to an end. Bob started to stand up and knocked into the table, spilling
    his coffee over his notes. "How embarrassing! I am getting so clumsy (笨拙的) in my old age."
          Everyone had a good laugh, and soon we were all telling stories of our most embarrassing moments.
    It came around to Frank who sat quietly listening to the others. Someone said, "Come on, Frank. Tell us
    your most embarrassing moment."
         Frank laughed and began to tell us of his childhood. "I grew up in San Pedro. My Dad was a
    fisherman, and he loved the sea. He had his own boat, but it was hard making a living on the sea. He
    worked hard and would stay out until he caught enough to feed the family. Not just enough for our family, but also for his Mom and Dad and the other kids that were still at home."
         He looked at us and said, "I wish you could have met my Dad. He was a big man, and he was strong
    from pulling the nets and fighting the seas for his catch. When you got close to him, he smelled like the
    ocean. He would wear his old canvas, foul-weather coat and his bibbed overalls. His rain hat would be
    pulled down over his brow. No matter how much my mother washed them, they would still smell of the
    sea and of fish."
         Frank's voice dropped a bit. "When the weather was bad he would drive me to school. He had this
    old truck that he used in his fishing business. That truck was older than he was. It would wheeze (呼哧
    呼哧响) and rattle down the road. You could hear it coming for blocks. As he would drive toward the
    school, I would shrink (畏缩) down into the seat hoping to disappear. Half the time, he would came to
    a sudden stop and the old truck would belch (喷出) a cloud of smoke. He would pull right up in front,
    and it seemed like everybody would be standing around and watching. Then he would lean over and give me a big kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy. It was so embarrassing for me. Here, I was
    twelve years old, and my Dad would lean over and kiss me goodbye!"
         He paused and then went on, "I remember the day I decided I was too old for a goodbye kiss. When we got to the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean toward me, but
    I put my hand up and said, "No, Dad." It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way, and he had
    this surprised look on his face. I said, "Dad, I'm too old for a goodbye kiss. I'm too old for any kind of
    kiss." My Dad looked at me for the longest time, and his eyes started to tear up. Then he turned and
    looked out the windshield(挡风玻璃). " You're right," he said. " You are a big boy....a man. I won't kiss
    you anymore."
    Frank got a funny look on his face, and the tears began to well up in his eyes, as he spoke. "It wasn't long after that when my Dad went to sea and never came back. It was a day when most of the fleet (船队
    ) stayed in, but not Dad. He had a big family to feed. They found his boat adrift with its nets half in and
    half out.He must have gotten into a strong wind and was trying to save the nets and the floats."
         I looked at Frank and saw that tears were running down his cheeks. Frank spoke again. "Guys, you
    don't know what I would give to have my Dad give me just one more kiss on the cheek…to feel his
    rough old face… to smell the ocean on him… to feel his arm around my neck. I wish I had been a man
    then
    . If I had been a man, I would never have told my Dad I was too old for a goodbye kiss."
    1. When his father drove him to the school, Frank would shrink down into the seat hoping to
         disappear because _______.
    A. he was fed up with his father kissing him goodbye
    B. he deeply regretted what he had done to his father
    C. he was then too young to refuse a goodbye kiss
    D. he hoped that his father would forgive him
    2. In Frank's eyes, when his father said "You are a big boy… a man.", he probably felt ________.
    A. disappointed
    B. hurt
    C. excited
    D. proud
    3. According to the story we can conclude that Frank's father ________.
    A. was quite confident in his skills in fishing
    B. loved his children but hardly expressed it
