In return, Guo made a prosthetic leg (假肢) for his new friend. An officer shared his idea about Guo: Kindness knows no borders (国界). In a small town in France, Guo met many kind people. A man gave him food.An old lady gave him water and fruit. When he tried to set up his tent, a group of people came to help him ... He lost half his body, yet opened up a world far greater than most. I really admire him for following what he loves, but I’m worried about his safety. What if he gets hit by a car? As a father of two, is he really responsible to his family by staying away for so long? 36．What kind of person is Guo according to the passage? A．A man who prepares well. B．A man who loves learning.

B My father is a common worker, but he is the person I admire most. He never received high education, but he has taught me the most valuable lessons in life. My father works in a local factory. He gets up at 6 a.m. every day and comes back home after 7 p.m. He is always tired after a long day’s work, but he never complains. No matter how hard the work is, he keeps working seriously and responsibly. Unlike other parents who only care about children’s grades, my father pays more attention to my character. He always tells me, “Being honest and kind is more important than getting high scores.” When I quarrel with my classmates, he teaches me to be tolerant and understanding. When I give up facing difficulties, he encourages me to keep trying and never lose hope. Last winter, I faced a difficult English exam and failed. I felt upset and wanted to give up English learning. My father didn’t blame me. Instead, he sat beside me and comforted me patiently. He said failure is not terrible, giving up is. He spent one hour every night helping me check my mistakes and make learning plans. With his help, my English improved little by little. My father has no great achievements, but his kindness, responsibility and perseverance light up my growth road. He is the best teacher in my life. 41．What does the writer’s father do? A．A teacher.
