Ⅱ.阅读理解
On Sundays my father always wore that black apron—the one with the race cars all over it.
After breakfast Dad always announced: “Go ahead everyone.I'll take care of the dishes！” With
that my mother disappeared into the folds of the Sunday paper.
Off_came_the_suit_coat_he_had_worn_to_church_that_morning._Up_went_the_shirtsleeves._On_went_that_apron. For the next hour Dad did the dishes, singing songs like“Who Put the Chow in
Mrs. Murphy's Chowder”？
I suppose it was strange for a father to wear an apron—even one with race cars—but I never
thought much of it until that Sunday when we walked home from church together.“Tommy”， he said，“There comes a time in every boy's life when he must take on responsibilities．”
“Responsibilities？” I asked. “Yes. It's time you took a greater role in the household. Starting
today, I want you to do the dishes on Sunday morning so your mother and I can relax.” “The
dishes？” “Anything wrong with taking over the dishes？”I started to say something about a
man's job, but I knew immediately that my protests would fall on deaf ears.
I didn't taste a bit of breakfast that morning. My father announced to my mother, “Let's go to
read the paper, honey.Our oldest son has generously offered to fill the position.”So this was what my
life had come to.
People often say there is a special chemistry between a father and a son. He came back into the
kitchen just as I was about to storm out. In his right hand was the old apron.“I want you to have this,
Tommy. It'll keep your clothes from getting wet.” And before I could do anything, he had put that
apron on me. “Thanks, Son. Your mother and I appreciate this.”
With that he disappeared into the Sunday paper. I looked down at the apron.It had seen better
days.I could see my dad reaching for the dishes. Soon I was singing about Mrs. Murphy's Chowder.
16．What is the main purpose of the underlined sentences in the first paragraph?
A．To show the unwillingness of his father when doing dishes.
B．To instruct the main steps of how his father does dishes.
