題目列表(包括答案和解析)
Dear Volunteers,
The service you will provide to elderly individuals in Abilene as a Meals on Wheels volunteer is deeply appreciated. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the many miles you will travel and all of the hours you will contribute to help make this one of the best programs in the entire state.
We have our staff members make a home visit before adding each person to the program and try to visit everyone at least once every year. That is hardly enough, and we depend on your contact a great deal! It is important that you report back when you do not get an answer to your knock on the door. The person inside may be hurt or ill. They may be in hospital or out of town and fail to inform us. If they are frequently absent, we may need to determine if they still need meals.
If you find someone with a medical emergency, please call 911 to request medical assistance, and then call the Meals on Wheels office. If you find someone who needs assistance other than for a medical emergency, please call the Meals on Wheels office at 6725050, and we will try to find the appropriate agency or individual to call.
Let us know when a certain person needs extra food. We have a food preparation room of shelf stable items to share with them. Please feel free to take a few magazines when you deliver meals. Many of those we serve cannot afford magazines and enjoy reading. If someone is interested in getting books from the Abilene Public Library, let us know. We can sign them up for the Books on Wheels program. Call if you smell gas strongly when you deliver meals, or if someone needs a space heater, a blanket, or an electric fan. Please convey all needs to us, and we will try to see that they are met. Some of the elderly people who we offer our service may have cancers, liver diseases, AIDS, etc. If you do not want to deliver meals to the people with certain types of health problems, such as these, please let us know.
Sincerely,
Betty L. Bradley, LBSW,
Executive Director

A few months earlier I had been painting two portraits for each of my parents.I'd planned to give them the portraits as Christmas gifts.This would be a 36 for everyone,as I had not studied 37 .
While painting one day, I was surprised by a knock on the door. Quickly having put all my 38 materials out of sight, I opened the 39 . To my astonishment, my father came in .
Immediately I wanted to show him the paintings, but I was 40 to destroy his Christmas surprise. Yet something 41 me to share the gifts with him. After making him promise to keep it secret, I 42 he keep his eyes closed until I had the portraits set on easels(畫架). “Okay, Daddy. Now you can 43 !”
He appeared dazed at first. Finally , he said, “I don’t believe it. The eyes are so 44 that they follow you everywhere—and look how 45 your mother is. Will you let me have them 46 ?”
Excited with his response, I happily volunteered to 47 them to the frame shop the next day. Several weeks passed. Then one night the 48 rang—my father had a stroke(中風). He died the next day, and it seemed all 49 escaped from the life of my mother and me .
I finally remembered to 50 about the framed portraits. I was surprised when the shopkeeper told me my father had visited the shop, 51 for the framing and had them gift-wrapped.
52 we had lost our loved people, everyone gathered on Christmas Day making an effort to be 53 . As I looked into my mother’s sad eyes and unsmiling face, I decided to give her Daddy’s and my 54 . After she saw it, with a wide smile, she quickly said, “I knew Daddy would be with us on Christmas Day!”
I glanced at the gift card written in my father’s 55 . “ Mother—Our daughter reminded me why I am so blessed. I’ll be always looking at you.—Daddy.”
