On some level, I always knew that I wanted to be a doctor-at least from the age of eight or ten years old, anyway.

Although my father wasn’t a doctor, he made his own brand of “house calls”. I followed him as he brought a plate of my mother’s home cooking to an elderly man named Frank on all major holidays and when Frank was sick. As far as I know, their only connection was that Frank was an occasional customer at Dad’s small gas station. Frank’s home was a two-room house on the rough side of town with an old front porch (門廊) where you could fall if you weren’t careful. Frank had no relatives and as far as I could tell, no other visitors either. Through his attitude and by caring, my father was teaching me to be a doctor, although neither of us knew it at the time.

When I was 13, my father developed lung cancer. He brought home a diagram the doctor had drawn showing where his cancer was and told me that he was going to die. He asked me to take care of my mother when he was gone. I was an only child. He said he loved me on the night when he died.

When you’re 13 and your father dies, you have some choices to make. You can use the situation as an excuse for letting your actions and graded go down, or you can honor his memory and try to do something positive with yourself. I focused my energy on my schoolwork and my goal of becoming a doctor.

1. What’s the father’s “own brand of ‘house calls’”?

         A. his treatment for frank’s serious illness.

         B. his care for Frank.

2. The author began to want to be a doctor when_________

         A. father helped frank regularly      

B. Father developed lung cancer

         C. father asked him/her to take care of Mother    

D. father died

3. what was the influence of Father’s death on the author?

         A. The author began to think seriously about his/her career.

         B. The author was too sorrowful to carry through his /her study.

         C. The author used the situation as an excuse for quitting school.

         D. The author made great effort at his/her goal of becoming a doctor.

4. The best title for the text would be_________.

         A. What Made Father Respectable         

B. What Led Me to Be a Doctor

         C. How to Help Strangers       

D. How to Deal with Death

He has vowed that he will not stop building his business until it is worth £100 million. But hard-working Owens can stop for at least a moment's celebration after making his first £1 million at the age of 16. Owens, who has used a computer since the age of seven, began teaching himself basic web design at the age of ten when he was given his first Mac computer.
