“Is it possible for Brownie not to be glad to be back after a happy stay at my uncle's？”Miss Gauss asked Dad.“It'll be all right. Give her a bit more to eat，” he said in a low voice, without tearing his eyes from Brownie while his wife was busy packing Brownie's belongings, saying，“Brownie is not so cute as her younger brother, Spotty. Take care of the little thing when walking him.”

It happened on the night of July 10th, 2013 before the Gausses took a trip to Hawaii. They entrusted their pet to me because they thought I was the first person they'd confide in. And another intention of theirs was that I had already trained Spotty into a well?known pet in my community, which can act many tricks, such as “Sit down！” “Stand up！” “Give me your right hand！” “Turn around！” She can even sing, and, of course, that's just a strange sharp noise. Having seen them off, I took beautiful Brownie home in my arms, for fear that he would slip away.

Brownie_was_the_kind_of_go?go_but_unsocial_baby,_so I tried many ways to be his friend, which made Spotty rather unhappy. They often fought a battle, seemingly to break my roof loose.

I seized the chance to train him and he achieved a lot, which I texted Mr.Gauss. They were so overjoyed and decided to fly home ahead of time to see Brownie's qualitative change.

But，all this was thoroughly destroyed because of Brownie's death in a traffic accident. What a poor little creature！He was really dogged(緊隨) by bad luck, and he was saved from death shortly after his birth. For whatever reason，therefore, I was overwhelmed by feelings of guilt, which seemed to run most deeply in me.

The best way to cheer ourselves up is to try first to cheer somebody else up. That will be an everlasting pain in my heart, a wound that does not heal.

1. What is suggested in the first paragraph?

A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

B. Honesty is the best policy.

C. Brownie was a pet that runs fast

D. Brownie was active but homeless

4. How did the writer feel after the accident?

Four years ago my sweet mom went to be with her Lord(上帝). She did it her way.

I got the call at work, and I headed home quickly. Mom and Dad lived on a small farm that they had owned since I was seven. I hated going there every weekend. There was nothing for a young girl to do but watch the one station on the old TV set, if the weather allowed reception.

My mom, on the other hand, loved the peace and quiet of the land. The place was rustic, with no indoor plumbing or heat. We had a big wood stove in the kitchen that did its best to heat the little farmhouse, but it always seemed cold and too quiet to me.

In the evenings, my mom and I would sit for hours singing in the little kitchen. I sang the melody and Mom harmonized. Her favorite song was "Moon River" and we sang it over and over. Mom told me stories about how when I was a little girl, I could sing before I could talk.

As time passed, I had my own children and went to visit them every week or two. The kids loved the farm and the tractor rides with my dad. Me, well, I still hated the silence of the farm. While my mom loved to sit at her kitchen table and look out at her garden and flowers and retell all the old stories, I missed the hustle and bustle（喧鬧）of my life at home. But I sat there listening quietly as she reminisced.

Now, I sat back in the silence and the silence was deafening so I finally leaned over to turn on an old radio. Music always comforted me.

My heart skipped a beat. "Moon River" was playing on the radio. I sat there stunned, with a tear running down my cheek, as I listened to every familiar note.

1.From the first paragraph, we know that the writer’s mother ________.

A. passed away four years ago

B. left the small farm with Lord

C. left for Lord to live her own way

D. preferred to be with Lord
