My four brothers and sisters and I wouldn’t be here if he’d been led to any other number.Back in 1941, Dad spent his Saturday nights at “The Nixon”, a dance hall on the corner of 52nd and Market streets in Philadelphia. He could dance the Waltz and do the Jitterbug just as well as Fred Astaire. The girls dressed up and styled their hair like Ginger Rogers. Some wore silver slippers, while the more skilled dancers wore gold. In those days, when a guy wanted to dance with a girl, he had to sign up for a song on her dance card ahead of time —and every guy wanted to sweep Peg Ostrich off her feet.Dad was chatting with his friend when he first saw her walk into the dance hall, attractively beautiful, with dark brown eyes, shoulder length brown hair and gold slippers. Dad waited in the crowd to sign her card, and they danced to “The Anniversary Waltz”. He fell in love with her completely. If only he could kiss her, just once!New Year’s Eve was coming up. Maybe he could hold Peg for the midnight dance! Then he c ould give her a New Year’s kiss. Dad spent every Saturday counting songs and figured out which dance would fall on the magic moment —number thirteen. “That can’t be right,” Dad said to himself. “That’s bad luck!” Had he made a mistake? Should he sign up f or the twelfth or fourteenth? What if he was too early, or too late? On New Year’s Eve, Dad ran to the dance hall, but Peg was already surrounded. By the time he got to sign her dance card, only one choice remained — thirteen.At 11:55, Evelyn Johnson, the bandleader, called their song. “Harvest Moon” began to play. Dad took Peg’s hand. At that moment, he didn’t care if the song lasted until midnight — he was happy just to dance with her. Then it happened. 10, 9, 8. . . The entire dance hall counted down. 3, 2, 1… HAPPY NEW YEAR! Peg looked into his eyes, and Dad delivered the perfect New Year’s kiss.Mom and Dad started “going steady” that night, which led to 44years of marriage, five children, fourgrandchildren, and two great-grandchildren — a growing fam ily that all began with one “unlucky” number. 1.Which of the following is the name of a famous dancer? ________A.Waltz.

He had a printout of Google Maps from the airport to a hotel on the main street, but just couldn’t find his hotel. He clearly didn’t have a phone, so after confirming his written directions, I mapped it on my phone and showed him exactly where he needed to go.He m entioned that he had tried going there, but there was no such street number and he just couldn’t locate his hotel. I confirmed it again for him. He thanked me with a big smile, shook my hand, and took off. I got into my car and he got into his, and we part ed ways. As I drove to the next grocery store and went in, something wasn’t sitting right about the directions — so I googled the address again and realized that he was looking for the right address but in a city half an hour away!Unfortunately it had been several minutes, and in the rush hour time, the chance of finding him a mile away where he was surely still looking around —was slim to none. But I thought I’d give it a try and took off in that direction. I’d barely noticed what his car looked like, an d was just about to give up. I parked my car as I considered what else I could do when he drove right by and pulled over into a nearby parking spot, still confused about where he was.When I pulled in next to him, he couldn’t believe it. “How did you find me?!” he asked. “I’m not sure, but I figured out that you are in the wrong city!” I showed him the hotel information, pulled up the right directions forhim, and after more smiles, laughs and a handshake, we parted ways. Likely that we’ll never meet again, and that makes it all the more sweet.5.The writer helped the man in the beginning by ________A.driving him to the destinationB.turning to other people for helpC.lending the phone to himD.pointing the way for him6.How did the writer find the man again? ________A.The man drove by and pulled over nearby.B.The man didn’t go far in his car.C.He used his Google Maps on the phone.D.He knew what the man’s car looked like.7.Which of the following best describes the writer? ________A.Patient and helpful.
