15、child, our dining room had two kinds of chairstwo large ones with arm rests and four small ones without. The larger ones stood at the ends of the table, the smaller ones on the sides. Mom and Dad sat in the big chairs, except when one of us was away; then Mom would sit in one of the smaller chairs.

16、Dad always sat at the end, at the “head of the table. Sitting where he did, Dad was framed by the window through which the yard could be seen with its trees and grass. His chair was not just a place for him at the table; it was a place in which he was situated against the yard and trees. It was the

17、holy (神圣的) and protected place that was his, and ours through him.After Dad retired, he and Mom moved out into a small flat. When they came to visit me at their old house, Dad still sat at the end of the table though the table was no longer his but mine. Only with my marriage to Barbara, did I hear

18、a voice questioning the arrangement. She requested, gently but firmly, that I sit at the head of the table in our home.

19、 he handle it? I was to find out on the occasion of our youngest childs first birthday. Mom and Dad arrived for lunch, and went into the dining room. Dad moved toward his usual seat in front of the window. Before he could get around the side of the table, I took a deep breath and said, “Dad, this is

20、 going to be your place, next to Mom, on the side. He stopped, looked at me and then sat down. I felt sad, and angry at Barbara for pushing me to do this. It would have been easy to say, “My mistake, Dad. Sit where you always sit. But I didnt.When he and Mom were seated, Barbara and I took our place

21、s. I dont know how Dad felt. I do know that, though removed from his usual place, he continued to share his best self with us, telling stories of his childhood and youth to the delight of his grandchildren. As I served the food, our lives experienced a change, which we continue to live with.It wasnt

22、 easy, but I sense that there is also something good in the change which has occurred. I am beginning to learn that “honoring ones father is more than the question of which place to occupy at the dining table. It also means listening, wherever we sit and whatever positions we own, to the stories Dad

23、 longs to tell. We may then, during these magical moments, even be able to forget about whose chair is whose.56. Where did the writers mother sit when one of the children was away?A.

28、lace to live. Housing policies differ from school to school. Students might have to live in a dormitory, at least for the first year there.Dorms come in all sizes. Some have suites. Six or more students may line in one suite. Other dorms have many rooms along a common hallway, usually with two stude

29、nts in each room . Many students say dormitories provide the best chance to get to know other students.

30、ng. They might live on the same floors and share the same common bathrooms.

37、way of experiencing a city, close-up, while also cutting down on traffic jams and pollution.
