阅读理解。     We always celebrated Dad"s birthday on Thanksgiving Day, even after he entered a nursing home. When
we knew it might be his last birthday, the whole family decided to come together for a huge birthday
celebration at the nursing home.
     Dad was a good storyteller. But this time I told Dad that it was now his turn to listen to some stories for
a change. One after another, people told stories from their hearts, while Dad listened with tears in eyes. People
recalled kinds of stories ----stories about when they were little, stories about when Dad was young, and stories
that shared family treasures.
     Everyone seemed to have more than one story. Even the little grandchildren couldn"t wait to tell Dad why
they loved him. For a man who had been kind to so many hundreds of people in his life, here was a change
to tell him how much we love him. A few months later, at Dad"s memorial service, we more fully realized
what we had given to Dad that night. Those are the stories people normally tell at a funeral (葬礼) after a
loved one is no longer alive to hear the words. They tell stories, full of tears. But we had given those memories
to Dad in his life, and we had told them through laughter, together with hugs and joy. He had them to hold and
enjoyed them from time to time in his mind during his last days and months.
     That"s the ways to give back love and that"s our chance to celebrate a person in his or her life. 1. The whole family decided to have a huge birthday celebration because _______.A. Dad was to leave the hospital

Dear Sir,
     I have to travel every day from Souk Road to the airport. Two buses travel along the line: the number 49
and number 16. But by the time the number 16 bus gets to Souk Road, it is always full, so I can"t get on it. I
have to wait for the number 49, because sometimes there are empty seats on it.
     The timetable says that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes. If this is so, why
do I have to wait half an hour for a bus every day?
     The regulations (规章) say that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where
people are waiting. Why do the half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?
     The regulations say that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers (乘客) and 20 standing
passengers. Yesterday I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport. I counted (数) the other
passengers as they got off. There were 129 of them.
     It is clear that our bus companies break the regulations and think little of their passengers. Can nothing be
done to make your service (服务) better?
