Alexis,17,sat quietly in the passenger seat of her dad's car.She let her eyes lazily scan the landscape for wildlife.Then a deer came into view about 200 yards in front of them."Dad,there's a deer there!" Alexis said.It was a male deer with sharp antlers (角) on each side of its head.
As the car moved closer,Alexis saw that the deer's head was bent toward the ground.Then she heard a scream and saw an arm fly up near the deer's head.Alexis realized the deer was attacking a woman.Sue,a 44-year-old mother,had been out for her morning run.The deer followed her and edged closer."I knew I was in trouble," Sue says.She went to pick up a stick for self-defense,and the deer charged.It lifted her with its antlers and threw her into the air.Sue could feel blood flew down her leg.Within seconds,the deer had pushed her off the road.
When Alexis and her father pulled up,the deer was throwing Sue like a doll.Alexis looked into the woman's terrified eyes,and before her father had even stopped the car,the teenager jumped quickly out of the car and ran toward the deer."I was kicking it to get its attention," she says.Then her father,who had followed his daughter,pushed the deer away from the women.
Alexis helped Sue into the car,and then applied a piece of cloth to Sue's injured leg."We're going to get you to a hospital," Alexis said.Then she heard her father shout loudly.He had been knocked to the ground.Alexis took hold of a hammer from the car and ran to where her father lay on his back.She beat the deer's head and neck,but the blows didn't scare it away."I was losing faith," she says."A couple more strikes,Alexis," said her father."You can do it." Turning the hammer around,Alexis closed her eyes and beat the deer's neck with all her strength.When she opened her eyes,the deer was running away.Alexis got in the driver's seat and sped toward the nearest hospital.
After Sue was treated,she tearfully thanked her rescuers."You expect a teenage girl to get on the phone and call for help," she says,"not to beat up a deer."

My father was 44 and knew he wasn't going to make it to 45. He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.
Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in my heart. One part always stands out. “Right now, you are pretending to be a time?killer . But I know that one day, you will do something great that will set you among the very best.” Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe in myself. “You will do something great.” He didn't know what that would be, and neither did I, but at times in my life when I've felt proud of myself, I remember his words and wish he were here so I could ask, “Is this what you were talking about, Dad? Should I keep going?”
A long way from 12 now, I realize he would have been proud when I made any progress. Lately, though, I've come to believe he'd want me to move on to what comes next: to be proud of, and believe in, somebody else. It's time to start writing my own letters to my children. Our children look to us with the same unanswered question we had. Our kids don't hold back because they're afraid to fail. They're only afraid of failing us. They don't worry about being disappointed. Their fear-as mine was until my father's letter-is of being a disappointment.
Give your children permission to succeed. They're waiting for you to believe in them.
I always knew my parents loved me. But trust me: That belief will be more complete, that love will be more real, and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts:“Don't worry; you'll do something great.” Not having that blessing from their parents may be the only thing holding them back.
1.We learn from the text that the author ________.
A. lost his father when he was young
B. worked hard before he read his father's letter
C. asked his father's permission to believe in himself
D. knew exactly what great thing his father wanted him to do
2.What does the author tell us in the 3rd paragraph?
A. Children need their parents' letters.
B. Children are afraid to be disappointed.
C. His children's fear of failure held them back.
D. His father's letter removed his fear of failing his parents.
3.Which of the following is TRUE of the author?
A. He got no access to success.
B. He wrote back to his father at 12.
C. He was sure his parents loved him.
D. He once asked his father about the letter.
4.The main purpose of the text is to ________.

B. answer some questions children have
C. stress the importance of communication
