　⑰Robert Edwards became blind in an automobile accident nine years ago. He was also partially deaf because of old age.

A short time later, he awoke: his legs couldn’t move and he was trembling, but,
⑲when he opened his eyes, he could see a clock across the room in front of him. When his wife entered, he saw her for the first time in nine years.

　　Following Christmas dinner, my family was relaxing around the kitchen table. We were discussing the delicious meal we had just had. Dad had risen from his chair and was standing nearby.
　　My nephew began playing with his new basketball around the table. Upon nearing Dad, he stopped. With shaking, wrinkled hands, Dad had reached out for the ball. He did not speak, and the boy looked at us in confusion. After a few seconds, he carefully passed the ball to Dad. I watched my father closely to see what he would do. A playful smile appeared on his face. Holding the ball and reaching forward, Dad bounced it on the floor and then caught it.
　　This action was repeated. Smiling with satisfaction, he then turned towards us. Gently tossing(投掷)the ball away, Dad began a game of catch.
　　The ball continued to be passed through pairs of outstretched hands. Cries of “Over here! ” rang through the warm kitchen. Dad’s active participation in this game was remarkable to me, since he had dementia(痴呆). This disease had robbed him of many memories and the recognition of people, places and points in time. Despite this, Dad clearly recognized the ball and what he could do with it.
　　In my younger years, playing with Dad was rare. He worked hard and provided for us, but never showed nor shared much emotion. His favorite game was chess, which he once taught me how to play. But after his illness, connecting moments between father and son had been few before he took the basketball.
　　I’m not sure how long we played the game. Watching the clock was not important. Dad happily led us until he began to tire. I know that that moment will certainly last forever. This Christmas, Dad gave me a special memory — one that I will always treasure.

(2019·三明高一检测)
　　Like all big cities, Paris has a traffic problem: lots of cars, lots of traffic jams and lots of pollution from exhaust fumes(废气). So the city began a plan to improve the situation.
　　Under the Velib plan (‘Velib’ comes from vélo liberté, or ‘bicycle freedom’) people can take a bicycle, use it for as long as they want, and then leave it at the same or another bicycle station. The first half-hour on the bike is free, but if you don’t return it after 30 minutes, you have to pay. But it’s only 1 a day or 29 a year! The bicycles are heavy (25 kg), and they are all grey and have baskets. There are about 20, 000 of them in the city, and around 1, 450 bicycle stations. So there are a lot more Velib stations than the 298 subway stations!
　　Paris is not the first city to have a plan like this. But not everybody thinks it’s a great idea. One Parisian said, “These bicycles are only for short journeys. If people want to travel across the city, they won’t use a bicycle — they’ll still use their cars. ”
