Mother immediately began planning to take them to dine at the Waldorf, a much talked of new hotel at Fifth Avenue and Thirty third Street, which she very much wanted so see. She knew Father mightnt like the idea, but he would enjoy himself after he got there, and she thought she could manage him. When he came in, she went to his bedroom to break the good news to him. Whenever she was planning to manage him, the very tone of her voice put him on guard; it had an impatient note, as though really the only plan she could think of was to wish he was manageable. So on this occasion, when she tried to get him in a good mood, he instantly got in a bad one. He looked suspiciously (怀疑地) at Mother and said, “I dont feel well.”But Mother was fully prepared to see that he would take it hard at the start. She said brightly that the Waldorf was lovely and that it would do him good to go out. There was no dinner at home for him anyway, so what else was there to do?When Father took in the situation, he undressed and put on his nightshirt. He shouted angrily at Mother that he had a sick headache. It made no difference to him whether there was any dinner or not. What he needed was rest. After walking around, he put his clothes away and darkened his room. He climbed into bed. Pulling up the sheets, he let out his breath in deep groans (呻吟).Mother had got tired of scolding Father and trying to make him get out of bed, and had made up her mind to dine at the Waldorf without him. She and Auntie Gussie and Flossie marched off by themselves. But they had to come back almost immediately because Mother didnt have enough money, and when she rushed into Fathers sickroom and lit the gas again and made him get up and give her ten dollars, his roars (咆哮) of pain were terrific.60Mother wants to dine at the Waldorf probably because .Ashe has not prepared dinnerBshe feels Father needs a changeCshes curious to know what the new hotel is likeDAuntie Gussie and Gousin Flossie have come to visit61From the underlined sentence “he would take it hard”, we learn that Father would .Atalk with Mother seriouslyBface Mother with difficultyCfeel very upset about the ideaDaccept the idea unwillingly62We can infer from the passage that .AFather has a poor appetiteBFather pretends to be sickCFather has the final say in the familyDFather thinks dining out a waste of time63What is the authors attitude?AHe stands by Mother.BHe takes Fathers side.CHe is ashamed of his parents.DHe is just reporting the story.CA murder will occur this weekend in the peaceful seaside town of Langley, Washington.
