24、   I loved everything about school except for one person: Mildred.

Every day, as we walked home after school, she would step on the backs of my shoes. Then, when I stopped to adjust my shoes, Mildred would touch my back. She scared me.

Soon, my mother found something was wrong. I told her the whole story. My mom told me not to worry and said she had a plan.

The next morning, my mom walked up the hill with me. Just as we got to the top of the hill, we saw Mildred.

“Hello, Mildred,” my mom said quietly. Mildred stopped, standing as still as a statue (雕像). Her hands and face were bright red. Her oversized coat hung open. There were only two buttons (纽扣) on it.

My mother didn’t say anything at first. Instead, she buttoned up Mildred’s coat and turned the collar up around her neck.

“I’m Marion’s mother. I need your help, Mildred.” My mother’s hands held Mildred’s as she spoke. “Marion doesn’t have any brothers or sisters. She needs a best friend at school, someone to walk up the hill with her after classes are over. Would you be Marion’s friend, Mildred?”

Mildred chewed (咀嚼) on her bottom lip and nodded. “Oh, thank you!” my mother said. “I just know you are someone I can depend on.” Then she hugged us and left as though nothing unusual had happened.

Mildred and I walked on to school. As I looked over at her, I saw that Mildred was smiling! I’d never seen her smile before.

We walked up the hill each day after school together and pretty soon we became best friends.

I didn’t understand my mom’s plan at the time. But eventually, I came to understand her message: Love never fails.

26、"Tammy! Come here, please! Mother needs your help in the kitchen." Her father called out to her.

After supper, her father helped her and Harry with their homework, and then they played a board game so that their mother could lie down for a while.

The next morning, Tammy got up early on her own because she wanted to help her mother with breakfast. She made orange juice and even put bread in the toaster and got out the butter so that her mother could sleep for a few more minutes.

27、When I was young, I sometimes traveled the country roads with my dad. He was a mail carrier, and on Saturdays he would ask me to go with him. Driving through the countryside was always fun: There were animals to see, people to visit, and chocolate cookies if you knew where to stop, and Dad did.

On Dad's final day of work, it took him well into the evening to complete his rounds because at least one member from each family was waiting at their mailboxes to thank him for his friendship and his years of service. Mailboxes were sometimes used for things other than mail. One note left in a mailbox read, “Nat, take these eggs to Marian; she's baking a cake and doesn't have any eggs.” A young girl wrote letters but had no stamps, so she left a few buttons on the envelope in the mailbox; Dad paid for the stamps. One businessman used to leave large amounts of cash in his mailbox for Dad to take to the bank. Once, the amount came to $32,000.

A dozen years ago, when I traveled back to my hometown on the sad occasion of Dad's death, the mailboxes along the way reminded me of some of his stories. I thought I knew them all, but that wasn't the case.

As I drove home, I noticed two lamp poles, which supported wooden boxes about four feet off the ground. For years children had dropped letters to Santa through those boxes. I made a turn at the corner and drove past the post office and across the railroad tracks to our house.

Frank Townsend, Dad's postmaster and great friend for many years. So we all sat down at the table and began to tell stories.

At one point Frank looked at me with tears in his eyes. “What are we going to do about the letters this Christmas？”he asked.

“The letters？”

“I guess you never knew.”

“Knew what？”

“Remember, when you were a kid and you used to put your letters to Santa boxes on Main Street? It was your dad who answered all those letters every year.”

I just sat there with tears in my eyes. It wasn't hard for me to imagine Dad sitting at the old oak table in our basement reading those letters and answering each one. I have since spoken with several of the people who received Christmas letters during their childhood, and they told me how amazed they were that Santa had known so much about their homes and families.

For me, just knowing that story about my father was the gift of a lifetime.

【1】It can be inferred from the passage that the writer regarded his travels with Dad as ________.

A. exciting experiences with a lot of fun

B. happy occasions to play with baby chickens

C. great chances to help other people

D. good opportunities to enjoy chocolate cookies

B. Dad paid for the stamps for a young girl.

C. Dad answered children's Christmas letters every year.

【4】What surprised the children most when they received letters in reply from Santa Claus every year?

A. Santa Claus had so much information about their families.

B. Santa Claus answered all their letters every year.

C. Santa Claus had unique mailboxes for the children.

D. Santa Claus lived alone in the cold North Pole.
