What is the hottest English word these years? “Selfie" may be one of them. It was even named Word of the Year by Oxford Dictionaries in 2013. The word was first used in an Australian online forum in 2002. Now, almost everybody knows it.

Selfie is a photo that one takes of oneself. People usually take selfies with a smart phone and send them to a social media website. Nowadays, more and more people are taking selfies. From your best friend to your favorite pop star, selfies are taking over Renren and Sina Weibo.

What makes people love selfies? Selfies can help to remember what's going on in their personal life. "Almost every day, I take a photo of myself at school, and save it in my Ozone. These photos record my happy and sad moments." said Huang Xu, 16, from Hunan. Another usual reason for taking a selfie is to share online. They hope to make friends and share their feelings with others. "During summer vacation, my classmates and I shared many selfies online. Through these photos, we got to know each other's holidays and feelings," said Wang Lin, 15, from Henan. "I'm too shy to ask someone to take pictures of me, but it's easier to do it by myself."

Although taking selfies is popular among young people around the world, they should be careful at the places where they take selfies. People are warned（警告）not to take light-hearted selfies in serious places, such as in some traffic accidents. In order to protect art works, selfie is banned in some museums and galleries, too.

Returning a Father’s Love

He was a single father， raising a 5-year-old boy by himself. He often worried about his son growing up without a mother to care for him.

One day， he went away on business， leaving the child alone. He worried about his child all the way， not knowing if he had eaten. But his child always told him not to worry. He ran home as soon as possible after he finished his work.

When he got home， the child was deep asleep. He was tired out. He was about to sleep when he was surprised to find an overturned (翻到的) bowl of noodles under the quilt (被子). He hit his sleeping son angrily， “Why are you so careless， making the quilt dirty？ Who will wash it？” It was the first time that he had hit his boy after his wife’s death.

“Sorry， but…” the child explained with tears in his eyes， “This is your supper， Daddy.” In order to let his father eat dinner when he arrived home， the child prepared two bowls of noodles: one for himself， the other for his father. He was afraid that his father’s noodles would get cold， so he placed them under the quilt!

Hearing this， the father felt deeply moved and felt sorry about what he did to his son — he hugged his son tightly without saying a word.

1.Where was the boy’s mother？

2.What did the father worry about his son？

3.How many bowls of noodles did the son prepared？

4.Why did the father hugged his son tightly without saying a word after hearing his son？

5.What do you think of the little boy？ (no more than 6 words)
