“say!” a smile slipped out from his lips. “do you rememberno, of course you wouldnt. it probably didnt make the impression on you as it did on me.”i hardly dared speak. “remember what?”“i used to think of that day a lot in pow camp(战俘营), when things werent too good. do you remember the day we flew the kites?”1. mrs. patrick was laughing guiltily because she thought.a. she was too old to fly kitesb. her husband would make fun of herc. she should have been doing her housework thend. her girls werent supposed to play the boys game2. by“we were all beside ourselves”, the writer means that they all .a. felt confusedb. went wild with joyc. looked ond. forgot their fights3. what did the writer think after the kite-flying?
