Dear Dr Know,

I love my grandfather, and he loves me and my sister (my sister is only three years old.). He spends almost all his free time with me and my sister. The problem is that my grandfather’s 70th birthday is on June 20th, but he doesn’t like to talk about it. He doesn’t want to celebrate (庆祝) it. However, I’d like to do something nice for him. What would be a good celebration for him?

Could you please give me some advice?

Yours,

Frank

Dear Frank,

I can completely understand your grandfather’s feelings towards his age. Maybe your grandfather doesn’t want to talk about his age. If you want to do something for him, you can choose a day to celebrate, not his birthday. On his birthday, you don’t need to use candles, the 70th birthday card, or to write “70” on the cake.

If I were you, I’d pick a later but age-unrelated
(与年龄无关的) day. You can just make a big dinner and invite all your family members over. You can ask your parents for help, but don’t let your grandfather know that. Then the whole family can be together and have a nice conversation with him.

任务型阅读,阅读下面短文,根据短文内容完成下列各题。

If you had only 45 minutes to stay with your family a day, what would you do? Watching TV or eating?

According to the latest survey about family life in Britain, many people probably do both at the same time. The results of the survey of 3,000 children and parents signal (暗示) a worrying problem: The family relationship is becoming worse.

Some experts (专家) say that the problem is caused by a “family-unfriendly culture”. The results show that most families get together for only 45 minutes a day. And most of the time is spent either in front of the TV or eating.

Sally Brown, a 15-year-old girl, said, “There are two girls in my family — my sister and I. Our parents never play with us and they don’t think they should do this. When we go outside and play with other children, our mother usually does housework or cooks. When our father gets back home, we have dinner together. And then we go out to play again after having helped wash the dishes. Our parents don’t always help us do anything we can — sometimes they even encourage us to do something difficult on our own. They think this is a much better way to educate children. In fact, we hope our parents can read to us before we go to bed. We hope to spend more time with them.”

1. What do most British families do when they get together according to the latest survey?

2. What causes the family relationship to become wrose according to some experts?

Perhaps the most famous name in the world of silent movies is Charlie Chaplin. It was in 1889 that both moving pictures and Charlie Chaplin were born. Sadly, Charlie’s father died when Charlie was five, and his mother was sent to mental (精神的) hospital. This left young Charlie homeless and living on the streets.

Things seemed bad for Charlie, but he had a bright, nice character. He was pleasant and easy to like. So he managed to get small parts in performances around London. Then, he moved to the USA in 1906, and his life took a major change for the better. He got a part in a show performing there. Seven years after his arrival in the USA, he got his first major part in a film. Charlie was a great success in the movie theaters. His silent, highly visual (视觉的) form of comedy was perfect for the silent films of the time. By 1915, he was making over $1,250 a week, which was a huge amount of money at that time. Charlie knew what he was good at, and he stuck to it. Even when sound could be used for movies in 1923, he continued to make silent pictures. Charlie knew that the silence was an essential part of what made his movies so funny. Charlie continued to make silent films well into the 1940s, when almost everyone else had changed to sound. Charlie, however, still remained one of the world’s greatest film stars.

1. When did Charlie get his first major part in a film?

   A. In 1889.              B. In 1906.                   C. In 1913.           D. In 1923.

2. The underlined word “essential” in Paragraph 2 probably means _____________.

   A. very boring         B. very correct                     C. very difficult      D. very important

3. From the passage we know that Charlie ___________.

   A. was easy to get along with                       B. stopped making movies in 1923

   C. was born and brought up in America         D. didn’t produce silent films in America

4. Which could be the best title of the passage?

   A. A Great Man of Silent Movies.                  B. The Major Change for an Actor.

   C. The Beginning of Silent Movies.               D. The Hard Life for A Movie Maker.
