When I was ten, my sisters and I were amazed at our neighbor’s Christmas tree. We went back home from their house and decided that we must have one of our own. In our house we never had enough money for a Christmas tree.
After thinking for long,“Yes!” Dad finally said.“This year we will have a Christmas tree.” Our mouths opened wide at the thought of having our own tree. Then Dad said,“I’ll do it myself.”
We followed him around the house as he put all the materials together , We all sat close to him, carefully watching everything he did. He passed the thread around the first nail on the corner of a box, then back down to the second nail on the box, and up again to the nail, until right there before our eyes a green Christmas tree began to take shape(形状). He carefully did the same with all of the 50 nails in the box and when he finished, he said,“Now you can decorate it.”
I don’t remember where the decorations came from, but they were red and small and to us they just looked so beautiful and nice for our tree. When we finished decorating it, we invited all our friends over to see our Christmas tree. We were so happy, because it looked so pretty and because my father made it himself. It truly was the most beautiful Christmas tree we had ever seen.
Years later, things got better and Dad was able to buy a Christmas tree which we would happily decorate. However, my sisters and I will never forget the night when we got our first Christmas tree.

We spent a day in the country and picked a lot of flowers. Our car was full of flowers inside! On the way home we had to stop at traffic lights, and there my wife saw the bookshelf. It stood outside a furniture(家具) shop. "Buy it," she said at once. "We'll carry it home on the roof-rack(车顶架) .I've always wanted one like that."
What could I do Ten minutes later I was twenty dollars poorer, and the bookshelf was tied on to the roof rack. It was tall and narrow, quite heavy too.
As it was getting darker, I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea. After a time my wife said, "There's along line of cars behind. Why don't they overtake (超车) " Just at that time a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously when they went past. But then, with a kind smile they asked us to follow their car through the busy traffic. The police car stopped at our village church (教堂). One of the officers came to me.
"Right, sir." he said. "Do you need any more help now " I didn't quite understand. "Thanks, officer," I said. "You' are very kind. I live just down the road." He was looking at our things: first at the flowers, then at the bookshelf. "Well, well," he said and laughed. "It's a bookshelf you've got there! We thought it was----er, something else." My wife began to laugh. Suddenly I understood why the police drove here. I smiled at the officer. "Yes, it's a bookshelf, but thanks again." I drove home as fast as I could.

A. the writer was poor and didn't buy the bookshelf for his wife
B. the writer's wife didn't like the book shelf at all
C. the writer was always glad to buy something for his wife
D. the writer was very unhappy to buy the book shelf for his wife

B. Because they didn't think it was polite to overtake a car with a bookshelf on it.
C. Because they thought somebody in the writer's family died and he needed help.
D. Because they thought it was dangerous to carry a bookshelf on a car.

Everyone in China knows giant pandas. In 1985, China began to send pandas to other countries. Today, there are 23 pandas living in foreign countries. Giant pandas are very quiet and peaceful. And they are also shy animals. They live alone in the forest. To our surprise, the giant panda eats at least 10 kilograms of bamboo each day. Giant pandas are good at climbing trees and swimming. They can live for about 20 years in the wild. Now China has 12 panda reserves to protect them. The biggest is the Wolong Centre, in Sichuan Province. It is 2,000 square kilometres in area and there are 100 pandas living in it.
