阅读下面短文,从每题所给四个选项中选出最佳答案。

  At 9:00 Dick Spivak's bank telephoned and said his payment was late. “The check is in the post.” Dick replied quickly. At 11:45 Dick left for a 12:00 meeting across town. Arriving late, he explained that traffic had been bad. That evening, Dick's girlfriend wore a new dress. He hated it. “It looks just great on you.” he said.

  Three lies in one day! Yet Dick Spivak is just an ordinary man. Each time, he told himself that sometimes the truth causes too many problems. Most of us tell much the same white lies, harmless untruths that help to save trouble. How often do we tell white lies? It depends in part on our age, education, and even where we live. According to one US study, women are more truthful than men, and honesty increases as we get older.

  While most people use little white lies to make life easier, the majority of Americans care about honesty in both public and personal life. They say that people today are less honest than they were ten years ago. Although it is believed that things are getting worse, lying seems to be an age-old human problem. The French philosopher Vauvenarges, writing in the eighteenth century, touched on the truth when he wrote, “All men are born truthful and die liars.”

1.When the writer says “Dick is just an ordinary man”, he means ________.

[  ]

A.it is common that people tell white lies

B.Dick could do nothing about bad traffic

D.Dick found it hard to deal with everyday problems

2.According to the text, most Americans ________.

[  ]

A.hate white lies

After my dad died on Aug.30, 2001, my mother made sure we marked each anniversary. At first, my brothers and sister and I would travel hours to get home, but eventually we got to the point where just one or two of us would make it back to go to Mass with her and spend the day together.
The great love of her life, the man who broke up with her right before her college graduation, only to return two years later claiming he’d traveled the world and hadn’t found anyone to compare with her, remained a daily presence in her life. She spoke about him so often and kept his memory so alive that people were sometimes surprised to learn that he was gone. She took over the garden where he’d planted and made it her own.
When the 10th anniversary of his death approached, my mom began talking about it and planning for it weeks in advance. The date on her kitchen calendar was circled and marked R.I.P. (Rest in Peace). Of course she wanted all of us there and settled the dates for our coming back.
On Monday — the day before the anniversary — she went to morning Mass and walked downtown for lunch with friends, and later told my sister on the phone that she felt Dad still so close that as she was walking back home, she heard someone yell and thought, “Oh, there’s Dick.”
That evening she went out to water flowers, just as my father, 10 years before, had gone out to the garden to pick vegetables before he died. A neighbor heard the tin watering can strike the ground as she fell and hit her head. My mother died within hours, on Aug.30, 2011, the 10thanniversary. She needed to mark that anniversary, she wanted us all home and my dad had waited long enough.
【小题1】From the second paragraph we know that the author’s father______.

A.traveled around the world and left her mother
B.left her mother first but returned two years later
C.had a quarrel with her before her graduation
D.was not the right man her mother wanted at that time
【小题2】We can infer from the passage that the author’s mother _____.
A.knew her last day was coming on Aug.30
B.kept everything of her father’s home
C.missed Father though he had passed away
D.remained a daily presence in his life
【小题3】Which of the following statements is true EXCEPT that _____.
A.Mother died the day before the anniversary of Father’s death
B.Mother died in the garden as Father did ten years ago
C.Mother died because she fell to the ground accidentally
D.Mother died on the same date when Father did ten years ago
【小题4】What does the writer imply in the underlined part of the last sentence?
