专题12 阅读回答问题（三） （一）（2022·上海宝山·二模） After spending the weekend away with my adult son, I was so impressed by his generous heart that I sent him this letter. Dear son, I want to thank you for teaching me a very valuable lesson in life by the great example you set. When we were eating at that cafe in Bondi and a person who had ordered his hamburger didn’t have enough money to pay for it. Without any hesitation, you went over and put the extra $2 into his hand. When we were leaving, you also threw a five-cent coin onto the road and said something like, “Some kids will really enjoy finding it.” Last week, a young man ahead of me in the line at a petrol (汽油) station didn’t have enough money to pay for his petrol. I asked the money collector, “How much short is he?” She told me he had meant to put $15 petrol in his car but he had been looking at the wrong gauge (计量表) and had put in 15 litres (升) which came to just over $20. This is an easy mistake as both gauges run fast. Something made me think of you and what you did that night at the cafe in Bondi. I handed the young man $6. He was so surprised and said, “But why would you do this for me?” I just smiled as I thought of you. Thank you, son. It’s better to give than to receive. Now when I see a five-cent coin on the ground and want to pick it up, I think of you and leave it there just in case some kids will get excited to find it. Love always, Mum 13．Did the writer spend the weekend alone? _____________________________________________________________ 14．What happened to the man who had ordered his hamburger? _____________________________________________________________ 15．How did the writer’s son help the man at the cafe? _____________________________________________________________ 16．Why did the writer’s son throw a five-cent coin onto the road? _____________________________________________________________ 17．How did the young man in the petrol station feel after the writer handed him $6? ________________________________
