Ⅴ. 阅读理解
A few years after Dad died，my 82-year-old mum moved away from the family farm near Almonte into her first apartment，which meant it would be easier for her to shop for daily goods. We were also worried that she was living alone and hoped this move would really widen her social circle(社交圈).
As she and I packed her things，Mum shared with me all kinds of stories about her and my dad's life. Her eyes were shining and I listened with great interest.
Then we drove to the town，leaving the unwanted things at Almonte's secondhand store，where they could be resold and the money would go to charity.
A local gentleman，who had bought one of Mum's old suitcases，found a black-and-white negative(底片)in an envelope，with the word "Daddy" written in pencil on the front. Knowing that this film certainly meant something to someone，he took it to the Almonte Gazette，trying to find its rightful owner through the newspaper.
A week later，a big photo of my dad appeared in our local paper，with a story to accompany it. Readers responded immediately；they knew "Daddy" well—it was their uncle，brother-in-law，neighbour，friend，favourite bus driver ...
So Mum and I went to the Almonte Gazette right away to claim our film. We thanked the staff and also called the editor to express our heartfelt thanks for reuniting(重逢)Mum，Daddy and me.
What a warming act! It meant the world to us. Mum finally moved into a nursing home. She passed away in November 2018，at 98，and until then hardly a day went by that she did not look at，in her word，"that famous picture of Daddy"，on her bedside table.

2. How did the negative of Daddy return to the family?
A. The owner of the secondhand store found it among those unwanted things.

C. The local newspaper published(刊登)Daddy's photo to look for its owner.
D. Some readers called the Almonte Gazette and asked to return the film.
3. The underlined word "claim" in Paragraph 6 probably means "
A. shoot up
B. ask for
C. clear up
D. take down
4. 语言能力 推断能力 What can we infer from the passage?
