I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).‎ ‎ I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured （使…放心）me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.‎ ‎ Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him ‎ comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.‎ ‎ After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.” ‎ I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.‎ ‎21.

Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2?‎ ‎ A. He helped the girl find a ride. ‎ ‎ B. He gave the girl a ride back home.‎ ‎ C. He bought sandwiches for the girl. ‎ ‎ D.

"‎ ‎ The father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found the box empty. He spoke to her in a harsh manner, “Don't you know young lady, when you give someone a present there's supposed to be something inside the package?”‎ ‎ The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said, “Oh Daddy, it is not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was full." The father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his little girl and he begged her to forgive his unnecessary anger.‎ ‎ An accident took the life of the child only a short time later and it is told that the father kept the golden box by his bed for all the years of his life and whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems, he would open the box and take out a(n) imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.‎ In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given a golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family friends and God.
