2. When my mother passed away a few years ago, my father was left alone in the large house they had shared for 50 years． Without her to watch out for him, he worried about

who would find him and help if "something happened．"

My sister and I live in other states, so we hit on the idea that Dad could send us an email

every morning when he awoke． Thus was born the Morning Report．

He's usually up by the crack of dawn, and his half a dozen or so sentences are waiting in my

inbox when I wake up． If there's no email, I call him, or my sister docs, to make sure

everything is fine． The reports have become more than an everyday check though; they're

a diary of sorts, a catalyst（催化剂）for more extended conversations, and a source of

insight into his life．

Through them, Dad tells us about his routines． He might be heading to the grocery store

for bananas, going to his cardiac﹣rehab exercise class, or having lunch with

friends． Recently he told us, "I've climbed halfway up Mount Washington!" Given his age

and distance from New Hampshire, such a hike was unlikely．

Each email closes with "All my love, Dad．" When my mother was alive, that sentiment

（情感）was normally reserved for her． Now that she is gone, he shares those feelings and

his experiences with us． For me, what started as a simple security measure has ________ a

deeper closeness．

I'm grateful my father is still able to manage his computer and the Internet． I know the

day will come when he'll no longer be able to write the reports, and we'll have to find other

ways to keep track of one another． But until then, they are our way of knowing that

another normal day has begun．

（1）W hat was the father's concern at first？________

A His safety in emergency． B His children living far away． C The management of

his large house． D The memory of his late wife．

（2）Which word can best describe the father's life？________

A Wealthy． B Colorful． C Lonely． D Meaningless．

（3）What does the underlined word "spawned" most probably mean？________

A Weakened． B Blocked． C Produced． D Expected．

（4）What can be inferred about the author？________

A He prefers to live with his father． B He fairly values this close family ties． C He
