He was one of the best string instrument players in our town .He could not read music，but if he heard a tune a few times，he could play it. When he was young，he was a member of a small country music band. They would play at local dances and on a few occasions would play for the local radio station. He often told us how he had auditioned（试音and earned a position in a band that featured Patsy Cline as their lead singer. Occasionally，Dad would get out his mandolin and play for the family. We three children would often sing along. Dad loved to play the mandolin for his family. He knew we enjoyed singing and hearing him play. He was like that. If he could give pleasure to others，he would，especially his family. I had to mature into a man and have children of my own before I realized how much he had sacrificed. In 1950，our family moved. Dundalk and Dad found a job at Todd Steel. One day he was involved in an accident and got the third index finger of his left hand mashed between two pieces of steel. He didnt lose enough of the finger where it would stop him picking up anything，but it did impact his ability to play the mandolin. After the accident，Dad was reluctant to play the mandolin. He felt that he could not play as well as he used to. When I came home on leave and asked him to play he would make excuses for why he couldnt play. Eventually，we would wear him down and agreed to play. For the family it didnt make any difference that Dad couldnt play as well. We were just glad that he would play. When he played the old mandolin it would carry us back to a cheerful，happier time in our lives. 36. What do we learn about the father in the text? A. He founded a small country music band. B. He learned to play the mandolin mainly by hearing. C. He was proud to be a friend of Patsy Cline. D. He tried for many times to earn a position in a band. 3
