I was fifteenthen. He was kind, strong, fair, and very funny. When I was a youngmusician, hewas my biggest fan. I played my violin for him when he visited,and he loved everything, but each time he had one request. “Could youplay Amazing Grace？” he asked, full of hope and with a twinkle in hiseye, because he knew my answer was always, “I don’t know that one！”We went through this routine at ever y major holiday, and I always figured I’d have time to learn itfor him later.About the time I entered high school and started guitar, Grandpa got cancer. The last time Isaw him alive was Thanksgiving weekend in 1985. My mom warned us that Grandpa didn’t look the same anymore and that we should prepare ourselves. For a moment I didn’t recognize him. He looked so small among all the white sheets. We had all gathered in Ohio for the holiday, and I’m sure we all knew we were there to say good-bye. I can see now that Grandpa held on long enough to see us each one more time. I remember how we ate in the dining room and laughed and talked while Grandpa rested in his hospital bed. I wonder if it was sad for him to be alone with our voices and laughter.Knowing Grandpa, he was probably content.The next morning I found my moment alone with him. I pulled out my guitar, tuned to his appreciative gaze, and finally played for him Amazing Grace. I had worked on it for weeks, knowing it never mattered whether I actually played it well and choosing not to believe as I played that it was my last concert for my biggest fan. The cancer had stolen his smile, but I saw joy in his eyes. He held my hand afterward, and I knew I had done something important.I argued with people all through college about my music major. I was told by strangers that music wouldn’t make me any money and it wasn’t useful like being a doctor. But I know first-hand that with music I was able to give my grandpa something at a point when no one else could.1．At first the author didn’t play Amazing Grace for Grandpa because ________.A．she hadn’t learned it yetB．she found it difficult to playC．she disliked playing itD．her grandfather was just joking2．From the last sentence in Paragraph 2 we can infer that Grandpa ________.A．treasured love from familyB．was used to living aloneC．was too weak to feel anythingD．was optimistic about his health3．When the author finally played Amazing Grace for Grandpa, she________.A．made him smile joyfullyB．knew she must play it wellC．brought him love and comfortD．believed she could play it many times for himBA recent survey in the United States showed that the average familyspent more money on its pets than on its children. Although rathershocking, it should not surprise anyone who has seen the doggy parlors(客厅) where loved pets rest. Are Americans unique in treating theirlittle friends in this way? No, the English, too, pay more attention totheir pets.This can clearly be seen when we look at pet foods, which often contain more vitamins than human food. They certainly cost much. Last year the British public spent two hundred million pounds on pet food alone, to say nothing of veterinary bills or animal furniture. It is difficult not to feel angry about this when considering what the same amount could do for victims of starvation and poverty, so it is not unusual for me to_get_hot_under_collar_when I read an old man left all his money to his dog instead of his children.There are a variety of reasons why I find pets-raising alarming. They cause physical problems. An example of this is New York where they have great difficulty getting rid of the mess that dogs leave on the streets. Many people find this funny, but in a number of large cities it is a major problem. Animals can cause disease, too. It is the threat of rabies — a disease with no known cure.Another problem is the carelessness of pet owners. Most little children want a dog or a cat, and they continually push their mothers and fathers until they get on e. It is only when the “sweet little thing” has been brought home that the parents realize how much time and money must be spent on “Rover” or “Bonzo”. Then they just abandon it. As a result, they are allowed to run free. English farmers lose hundreds of s heep a year, killed by someone’s pet and you must have read of children being hurt by some pets of their own.Lastly, I would only suggest that we have got our priorities wrong and that something should be done about it. In my view, it’s time we stopped be ing sentimental about pets. I can see no reason why we should get upset when animals are cut up for medical experiments. This will lead us to discover cures for serious human diseases, and then I say, “Keep cutting！”语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。
