when i bought me first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours a day for three days, painting my house. he would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. all he asked, was a glass of iced tea, and that i hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him. but i was too busy, for i had a law practice to run, and i could not take the time to hold the paintbrush, or talk to my father. five years ago, my 71-year-old father spent five hours putting together a swing set（秋千）for my daughter. again, all he asked was that i get him a glass of iced tea, and talk to him, but again, i had laundry

libraries there were, the more people would have opportunities(机会) to read and use books, speeches and news.if you can easily find a public library in your community(社区), youll get more chances. after all, the united states has 9,225 public libraries. today, libraries keep growing. 70% of the libraries have free internet. it provides much more information and opportunities to ask for jobs online.libraries are also teaching kids about the fun of reading. the new program read! build! play! adds reading into playtime. as kids listen to a book that is being read aloud, they use legos (乐高积木) to build images(图像) from the story happily. todays libraries are always looking for creative programs to bring people into the library.benjamin franklin once said, “the doors of wisdom(智慧) are never shut.” as long as the doors of public libraries are open, what he said is most certainly correct!41. benjamin franklin founded the first lending library in _.a. 1731 b. 1800 c. 1886 d. 191942.
