As we were leaving, we found that only min utes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the concrete. Her husband was withher, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was em barrassed and clearly in shock.Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset abo ut what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum,it’s not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”At the front of the supermarket a charity(慈善) group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flo wers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy th e lady a flower. “It will make her feel better,” he said. I was am azed that he’d come up with such a sweet idea. So we went o ver to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just take it,” she replied. “I can’t take your money for such a wonderful gesture.”By now paramedics(救援人员)had arrived, and were attending the injured woman. As we walked up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her.Instead I gave the flower to the woman’s husband and told hi m, “ My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give h er this flower to make her feel better.”At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you so m uch, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mother’s Day to you.”The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, tellingher who it was from.

Usually she demanded that I sit at the table for dinner, go to bed at nine, and regularly clean my room. And I usually resisted(抗拒) doing what my mom wanted me to do. I was so eager for my independence that I built walls about a mile high in every direction.Something in college, when distance gave me the space the walls had meant to create, I began to take them down brick by brick. Throughout my twenties, we were moving toward each other from opposite direction. Actually I was the slow one and my mom was waiting patiently, as she always had, for something to change.And then, something did change. My dad died. U ntil that happened, I couldn’t imagine anything worse. Besides all the other ways I’d miss him, what would it be like at home? What would my mom and I do? What would we have and the same kind of food. My dad had often complained about those things. We also both enjoyed traveling, so we took trips together. Together, we also thought of ways of doing with a lot of my dad’s things. He kept everything. She and I, on the other hand, love to live light.Suddenly I found that I am so much like my mom. Recently, a new friend asked me how my mom and I get along. I hesitated for a moment, and then said, “Great.” I also told him that I felt guilty that something so positive came out of my dad’s death.4.What do we know about the author’s mother?A.

I was sitting at my desk and all of a sudden the front of my pants became wet．It had never happened before, and I knew that when the boys found out I would never hear the endof it．When the girls found out, they would never speak to me again as long as I live. I believed my heart was going to stop. I put my head down and prayed(祈祷), "Dear God, this is an emergency! I need help now! Five minutes from now I'm dead meat!"I looked up from my prayer and there came the teacher with a look in her eyes that said I had been discovered．As the teacher was walking towards me, a classmate named Susie came close to me, carrying a goldfish bowl that was filled with water．Susie fell down in front of the teacher and poured the water in my lap．I pretended to be angry, but all the while was saying to myself, "Thank you．Lord! Thank you．Lord!"Now all of a sudden, instead of being afraid to be laughed at, I was the object of sympathy(同情)．The teacher rushed me downstairs and gave me gym shorts to put on．All the other children were on their hands and knees cleaning up around my desk．The sympathy was wonderful．At the end of the day, as Susie and I were waiting for the bus, I walked to Susie and whispered, "You did that on purpose, didn't you?"
