PAGE PAGE 1 U9—10重点短语句型和练习 第一部分： 一、阅读理解。 My husband is not a big fan of kids, especially those without manners and those who misbehave. One of our neighbors has 3 children and the oldest is Jacob. He was 5 at the time. For some reason, he took a liking to my husband. Every time he saw him, Jacob would wave, rush across the street and come to visit. Jacob would always ask so many questions. They would ride bikes together. They really seemed to get along well. My husband had a sick cat that died at that time. It literally broke his heart and he grieved deeply for so long that even I was getting worried about him. He had no energy, cried and even give up his bike riding. Five-year-old Jacob immediately noticed and asked me what was wrong. I told him about the loss of our cat and how my husband didn’t want to ride, or visit his friends. Jacob listened carefully without a word and ran back home. The next day, the door bell rang. There was Jacob and his mom with a huge plate of homemade chocolate cookies. On top of that, Jacob had a huge paper card in his hand. Jacob’s mom explained, “Jacob came home yesterday and told me about your husband’s situation. He wanted to do something immediately to cheer him up and asked me to help him make chocolate cookies with the material left at home.” Jacob also asked his mom to write down a message on a piece of paper so he could copy it in his own handwriting. He drew a picture of my husband and the cat on the card and signed his name. I gave him a hug before he ran off to find his friend and present his gift. After they left, I noticed tears in my husband’s eyes. Five-year-old Jacob’s thoughtfulness left a great impression on him. 1. According to the passage, Jacob __________.
