Unit 4 Friend Family Better teaching, better learning! TEXT B 说“我爱你” 4?你瞧，5年前，我与父亲发生了激烈的争执，而且从此再也没有消除隔阂。我们互相回避，除非绝对必须出席圣诞节聚会或其他的家庭聚会。但甚至在那些场合，我们彼此几乎也不说一句话。因此，上周二到家时，我说服自己，打算告诉父亲我爱他。这事儿有点怪怪的，但就是这个决定似乎搬走了一块压在我胸口的重石。这感觉真棒！ 5?第二天一大清早我就起了床。我激动得睡不着觉，提前到办公室上班，两个小时之内就干完了比以前干一整天还要多的活。五点半，我就来到父母家按响了门铃。我暗自祷告爸爸会应声开门。害怕如果应声开门的是母亲，我会因胆怯而对她说出那几个字。终归我的运气好，爸爸应声来到门口。我抓紧时间——一脚跨进门槛说：‘爸爸，我来就是为了特地告诉你一声我爱你。’听了这话，爸爸似乎前后判若两人。只见他脸变得柔和起来，连皱纹似乎也消失了，他泣不成声。他伸出手拥抱我说：‘儿子，我也爱你，但这话以前我从来没能说出口。’这一刻如此宝贵以至于我不想挪动半步。妈妈双眼含泪走过来，我只挥了挥手，给了她一个飞吻。我和爸爸又相拥片刻，然后我离开了。许久以来，我都没有过那么棒的感觉了。 6?但这并不是我说这些的目的。那次上门之后过了两天，我的父亲——他患有心脏病，但没有告诉我——突发心肌梗塞，结果被送往医院，昏迷不醒。我不知他是否能挺过去。所以我要忠告全班同学的是：如果你知道有些事情需要做的话，千万不要等。要是我等到以后再对父亲说‘我爱你’那句话会怎么样呢——也许我永远没有机会了！抓紧时间去做你需要做的事情，现在就行动！” Part III: Reading Comprehension TEXT B Exercise 1.

What happened between the man and his father? Part III: Reading Comprehension Because he gave the class homework, and the assignment was to “go to someone you love within the next week and tell them you love them.” Because he didn’t feel that he had anyone to say those words to, and besides, he thought the author didn’t have the right to ask him to do something that personal. Because most of the men were over 35 and were raised in the generation of men that were taught that expressing emotions is not “macho.” Five years ago, his father and he had a vicious disagreement and really never resolved it since that time.
