Question

【題目】

I shook hands with my father in the truck, and for a long time he looked

straight ahead and didn't say a word. But I knew he was going to say a little to

me. "I can't say anything," he finally said. "I never went to college, and none

of your brothers went to college. I can't say don't do this and do that, because

everything is different and I don't know what is going to come up. I'm sure you

can deal with it ."

He gave me a new checkbook (支票簿). "If things get pushing, write a small check. But when you write one, send me a letter and let me know. There are some things we can always sell."

"You know what you want to be, and they'll tell you what to take," my father went on."When you get a job, be sure to be honest, and work hard."

Then my dad reached his seat and brought the old, broken Bible that he had read so often, the one he used when he wanted to look something up in a friendly quarrel with one of the neighbours. I knew he would miss it. I knew, though, that I must take it. He didn't say that I needed to read this every morning. He just said, "This can help you ifyou take it."

Did it help? I got through college without being a burden (負(fù)擔(dān)) on the family. I have been able to make money since.
