题文

The dirty, homeless man sat on the pavement, staring at the stones. He thought back more than twenty years to when he was a boy living in a small red brick hou on this very street. He recalled the flower garden, the swing his dad made, and the bike he had saved up for months to buy.The man shrugged impatiently, for the brightness of tho pictures hurt him, and his memory traveled on another ten years. He had a job by then, plenty of friends and started to come home less. He did not really want to remember tho years, nor the day when, becau of debts, he had gone home planning to ask for money. He felt embarrasd, but he knew exactly where his dad kept the money. When his parents stepped out of the room, he took what he wanted and left.That was the last time he had en them. Ashamed, he went abroad, and his parents knew nothing about the years of wandering or time in prison. But locked in his cell he often thought of home. once free, he would love to e his parents again, if they were still alive, and still wanted to e him.When his prison time was up, he found a job, but couldn’t ttle. Something was drawing him home. He did not want to arrive penniless, so he hitchhiked most of the long journey back. But less than a mile from his destination he started to feel sick with doubt. Could they ever accept this man who had so bitterly disappointed them?He spent most of that day sitting under a tree. That evening he posted a letter which, although short, had taken him hours to write. It ended with:I know it is unreasonable of me to suppo you want to e me ... so it’s up to you. I’ll come early Thursday morning. If you want me home, hang a white handkerchief in the window of my old bedroom. If it’s there, I’ll come in; if not, I’ll wave good-bye and go.And now it was Thursday morning and he was sitting on the pavement at the end of the street. Finally he got up and walked slowly toward the old hou. He drew a long breath and looked.His parents were taking no risks. ________________________________________The man threw his head back, gave a cry of relief and ran straight through the open front door.小题1:Why did the man shrug impatiently (paragraph 2) while he was thinking of his childhood?A．The thoughts made him angry.B．He felt he had wasted time.C．He was anxious to go home.D．The sweet memory caud him much pain.小题2:Why did it take him hours to write the letter?A．He doubted if his parents still lived in that hou.B．He had much news to tell his parents.C．He felt ashamed to ask for forgiveness.D．He was longing to return home and felt excited.小题3:In what order did the following events take place?a.
