was happy with my life. Then one day, my Mother came to visit me. She hadn’t seen me years and she didn’t even meet her grandchildren. When she stood by the door, my children laughed at her, and I shouted at her for ing over uninvited. I shouted at her, ―Why do you e to my house and scare my children! GET OUT OF HERE! NOW?。?! ‖ And to this, my mother quietly answered, ―Oh, I’m so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address.‖ Then she disappeared out of sight. One day, a letter about a school reunion(聚會 ) came to my house. So I lied to my wife that I was going on a business trip. After the reunion, I went to the old house just out of curiosity(好奇心 ). My neighbors said that she had died. I did not have a single tear. They handed me a letter that she had wanted me to have. ―My dearest son, I think of you all the time. I’m sorry that I came to your house and scared your children. I was so glad when I heard you were ing for the reunion. But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you. I’m sorry that I was always embarrassment to you when you were growing up. But, you see, when you were very little, you got into an accident and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn’t stand watching you having to grow up with one eye. So I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son who was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye. With all my love to you. Your mother.‖ 52. Why did the writer give his mother a hateful look when his mother came to see him at school? A. Because his mother came to visit him at a wrong time. B.
