Chinese parents give their children endless love and want nothing from them. However, sometimes, daughters and sons are too busy growing up and forget that their parents are getting older and older. What should we do? Let's have a look at a letter of a father's. Dear son, One day if you see me old and I am not myself, have patience and try to understand me. If I get dirty when eating.. ., if I cannot dress.. ., have patience. Remember the hours I spent teaching it to you. If, when I speak to you, I say the same things one thousand and one times, do not stop me and listen to me. When you were small, I had to read to you one thousand and one times the same story until you get to sleep. When I do not want to have a shower, neither shame me nor scold me. Remember when I had to chase you with a thousand excuses I made, in order that you wanted to bath. When you see me meet something new, give me the necessary time and don't laugh at me. I taught you how to do so many things _ to eat well, to dress well... to face life. If I do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well when I need to and when not. When my legs do not allow me to walk, give me your hand the same way I did when you gave your first steps. When sometimes I lose the memory during our conversation, let me have the necessary time to remember. And if I cannot do it, do not become nervous because the most important thing is not my conversation but to be with you and to have you listen to me. Yours, Father Question: According to the father, what should you do when your old parents lose the memory during your conversation? - Go on talking with them. - Be with them and listen to them. - Make them calm down. - Leave them alone.
Be with them and listen to them.

Q: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Cats are the most popular pets among Americans. So it is not surprising that there are a lot of expressions about cats. Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries . If someone looks very proud and satisfied with himself, we say "he looks like the cat that ate the canary." Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches. So if you "play cat and mouse" with someone, it means that you change between different kinds of behavior when dealing with another person. For example, a girl might offer something sweet to her little brother and then take it away when he reaches for it. Americans might say that something is "the cat's miaow" or "the cat's pajamas " to describe something that is the best or finest. "A copycat" is someone who acts just like someone else or copies another person's work. "A fat cat" is a person with a lot of money. If you tell about something that is supposed to be a secret, we say you "let the cat out of the bag". If you are not able to speak or answer a question, someone might ask you if "the cat has got your tongue " Have you ever watched children in a classroom when their teacher leaves for a few minutes? "When the cat's away, the mice will play" means people sometimes act badly when there is no supervision . You may have heard the expression "curiosity killed the cat". This means caring too much about things that are not your business might cause problems. If you have ever had cats as pets, you know it is difficult to train them or to get them to do something. Cats are not like Sheep or cows that can be moved in a group. So we say a difficult or impossible job is like "herding cats " Question: Where can you most probably find the passage? - In a scientific research paper about cats. - On a website telling people how to keep cats. - In a magazine telling various jokes and funny stories. - In a language book that teaches students how to use American slang.
A: In a language book that teaches students how to use American slang.
