Every day they are very busy trying to make money to pay the schooling for me. They dont act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV, and sending flowers to each other on Valentines Day is even impossible.One day, my mother was sewing a quilt (被子). I asked her if there was love between them. She stopped her work and looked up with surprise. Then she bowed (弯下) her head and continued sewing the quilt. I was very worried because I thought I hurt her. But after a few minutes she said, “Look at this thread (线). Sometimes it appears, but most of the time it disappears in the quilt. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly (几乎不) be seen anywhere or anytime, but its really there, and makes the quilt long-lasting.” I listened carefully but I couldnt understand her until the next spring.My mother suddenly got sick seriously and had to stay in the hospital for a one-month treatment. Every morning and dusk (黄昏) after she returned from the hospital, my father helped my mother walk slowly on the country road. There were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees, and the sun gently shone them through the leaves. All of these made up the most beautiful picture in the world. Reading their eyes, I knew they loved each other deeply. From this experience, I realized that love was just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.（1）The writer thought his parents life was not .A . romanticB . greatC . meaningfulD . true（2）Valentines Day may be a day for .A . parentsB . loversC . classmatesD . friends（
