into adulthood and went to college. i had to ride the bus whenever i came home. though the bus stopped about two miles from home, dad never met me, even in severe weather. if i grumbled, hed say in his loudest father-voice, “thats whatyour legs are for!” the walk didnt bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and country roads. i also felt less than valued that my father didnt seem concerned about my safety. but that feeling was cancelled one spring evening. it had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs. i longed for home. when the bus reached the stop, i stepped off and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home. a row of hedge（树篱）edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. once i had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, i always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that i was almost home. on that particular evening, the hedge had just come into view when i saw something gray moving along the top of the hedge, moving toward the house. upon closer observation, i realized it was the top of my fathers head. then i knew, each time id come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew i had arrived safely. i swallowed hard against the tears. he did care, after all. on later visits, that spot of gray became my watchtower. i could hardly wait until i was close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery. upon reaching home, i would find my father sitting innocently in his chair. “so! my son, its you!” hed say, his face lengthening into pretended surprise. i replied, “yes, dad, its me. im home.”21. what does the underlined word “grumbled” in paragraph 1 probably mean? a. accepted happily.b. spoke unhappily. c. agreed willingly. d. explained clearly.22. what made the author feel upset was _. a. the tiredness after long hours in labs. b. the fear of seeing something moving. c. the feeling of being less than valued.

want to meet his son at the doorway.d. he didnt think his son was old enough to walk alone.24. which of the following can be the best title for the text? a. terrible journey home. b. my college life. c. my fathers secret. d. riding bus alone. b deaf teenagers orlando chavez and german resendiz have been friends since kindergarten. together the two boys, who go to escondido high school in

“before then, i didnt know i was deaf and that i was different.” “being young and deaf in regular classes was very hard,” signs orlando. “the other kids didnt understand us and we didnt understand them. but weve all grown up together, and today, im popular because im deaf. kids try hard to communicate with me.” some things are very difficult for the two boys. “we cant talk on the phone, so if we need help, we cant call an crisis service,” german signs. “and we cant order food in a drive-thru（汽车餐厅）.” despite their difficulties, the two boys have found work putting food in bags at a local supermarket. they got their jobs through a “workability” program, designed for teenagers from local schools with different types of learning disabilities. german has worked in the supermarket since august, and orlando started in november.“the other people who work here have been very nice to us,” orlando signs. “they even sign sometimes. at first, we were nervous, but weve learned a lot and were getting better.” the opportunity to earn money has been exciting, both boys said. after high school, they hope to attend the national technical institute for the deaf in new york.25. orlando and
