For 22 years, after I left home for college, my father called me every Sunday. Nine years ago, my father, 67 years old, spent three days pa

19、inting my house. He asked me to hold the paint brush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy and I could not take the time to hold the paint brush, or talk to my father. Five years ago, my father spent five hours making a swing（秋千） for my daughter. Again, all he asked me to do was to give him a

20、glass of tea, and talk to him. But again, I had some clothes to wash, and the house to clean. On January 16, 1996, my father telephoned me as usual, this time from my sisters home in Florida. I had to get to church, and I cut the conversation short. The call came at 4:40 pm. That day, my father was

21、in hospital in Florida. I got on an airplane immediately, and on the way, I made up my mind that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, and have a nice long talk with him.

Limit the numb

28、er of new names you learn at one time. When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering everyone. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first name

29、s. Last names can come later. Go early. Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time. Thats fewer names for you to remember.

I wondered why. Look down, Elsa, Father said. I gathered all my courage and looked down. I saw the square in

32、the center of the village. And I saw the crisscross (十字形 ) of twisting, turning streets leading to the square. See, my dear, Father said gently. There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that. If you cant get to the place where you want to go by one road, try another. Now I understood w

33、hy I was there. Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the awful lunches that were served at school.

39、wide - a move towards weaning the islands off oil. Hawaii, which is far away from the U.S. mainland, imports foreign oil for almost 90 percent of its energy needs. Onethird of that oil is used to power cars and buses on island streets. This move will help Hawaii meet its goal of reducing fossil fuel

40、 use by 70 percent by 2030. Better Place, a Palo Alto, California-based company, will build the car recharging stations and provide recharged batteries for electric cars.

44、 （排放物） ; two, we use the opportunity to educate them, to teach them in Hawaii how it needs to be done in the rest of the world.” However, Hawaii doesnt expect to spend any money to improve the network. Maybe it needs to offer tax breaks or other ways to encourage people to buy electric vehicles when

45、 they are first offered. 【小题 1】 The underlined part “weaning the islands off oil” (in Para 1) probably means _. A exploring the islands for oil B stopping Hawaiis dependence on oil gradually C importing more oil from other islands D increasing the amount of oil used there 【小题 2】 Why is Hawaii chosen
