thing about your father? While this subject had e up before, however, the question had not been put so bluntly(直率的). I answered No. My only memory is of the few photos outside. You see, my father died when I was only four years old. Many people have lost their father early in life and it is easy to feel somewhat sorry for having to deal with such a situation, especially when the death has occurred when you are at an early age. On reflection, I think I do not remember anything because he passed away when he was a member of the Royal Australian Air Force. He was a Corporal(下士) doing land based duties, however, a medical condition took his life. It was 1942. The 2nd World War was in full battle and Australia was being attacked. My Mum and I with my younger brother, were living with my grandparents and I can only imagine the emotional circumstances that existed in the household at that time. Probably not something that would leave a memory. What I would like to say at this time, as the question is often asked, What did you learn from your father? The thing I learnt from his passing, at the age of 28, is a love of life. What I do remember is growing up wondering if I would live to his age, and after I did, thinking each year the bonus(津貼) of life I had been blessed with when pared to my father. I have sometimes felt disappointment in not knowing my father but life has moved on. However, can I say to those who do have fathers, celebrate today with him and return him all the love and happiness he has given to you.(1)Why did the author answered No in Para 4? didn39。t want to talk about his father. father died when he was very young. was much disappointed in his father. was no photo of his father left.(2)What do we know about the author? is the only child of his parents. father died of a medical condition. remembered quite a lot about his father. lived with his parents during World War II.(3)The father39。s passing makes the author____. the love of his own life. to live longer than his father. very disappointed all the time. to get more bonus from life.(4)What is the author mainly talking about in this passage? father39。s life.

My dad was upset not the usual stuff that he and Mom and, I guess, a lot of parents worry about like which college I39。 m going to, how far away it is from home. Instead, he was upset about the world his generation is turning over to mine, a world he fears has a dark and difficult future if it has a future at all. There will be a disease that kills millions, a disastrous energy crisis, a horrible worldwide depression and a nuclear explosion set off in anger. As I lay on the living room couch, listening to their conversation, starting to worry about the future my father was describing, I found myself looking at some old family photos. There was a picture of my grandfather who was a member of the class of 1942, the war class. Next to his picture were photos of my great﹣grandparents. Seeing those pictures made me feel a lot better. I believe tomorrow will be better than today — that the world my generation grows into is going to get better, not worse. Those pictures helped me understand why. I considered some of the awful things my grandparents and great﹣grandparents had seen in their lifetimes: two world wars, killer flu, segregation(隔離) , a nuclear bomb. But they saw other things, too, better things: the end of two world wars, passage of the civil rights laws. I believe that my generation will see better things, too that we will witness the time when AIDS is cured and cancer is defeated. I will see things as incredible to me today as the internet to my father when he was 16.(1)Why was the author39。s dad upset on a recent night?
