But strangely, he still missed the necklace! He came out and started walking away, feeling sad. Just then, an old man walking by saw him, and asked him what was the matter.

When a first-time father saw his newborn son, he immediately noticed the baby's ears obviously standing out from his head. He expressed his concern to the nurse that some children might tease his child. A doctor examined the baby and reassured the new dad that his son was healthy- the ears presented only a minor problem with its appearance.
But the nervous father persisted. He wondered if the child might suffer psychological effects of ridicule(嘲笑), or if they should consider plastic surgery(整形手術(shù)). The nurse assured him that it was really no problem, and he should just wait to see if the boy grows into his ears.
The father finally felt more optimistic about his child, but now he worried about his wife's reaction to those large ears. She had been delivered by operation, and had not yet seen the child.
“She doesn't take things as easily as I do,” he said to the nurse.
By this time, the new mother was settled in the recovery room and ready to meet her new baby. The nurse went along with the dad to lend some support in case this inexperienced mother became upset about her baby's large ears.
The baby was in a receiving blanket with his head covered for the short trip through the cold air-conditioned corridor(走廊). The baby was placed in his mother's arms, who eased the blanket back so that she could look at her child for the first time.
She took one look at her baby's face and looked to her husband and gasped(喘氣說), “Oh, Honey! Look! He has your ears!”
No problem with Mom. She married those ears...and she loves the man to whom they are attached.
The poet Kahlil Gibran said, “Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.” It's hard to see the ears when you're looking into the light.
1.When the father first saw his baby, he was worried that________.
A. the baby might not grow up healthily.
B. the baby might be laughed at by others.
C. the baby might disappoint its mother.
D. the baby might have mental problems.
2. According to the doctor and nurse, the baby’s ears________.
A. could not function well.
B. looked the same as others.
C. only caused a small problem.
D. needed to have plastic surgery.
3.What is true about the baby’s mother?
A. She blamed her husband for the baby’s big ears.
B. She was the first to discover the baby’s large ears.
C. She suggested having an operation on the baby immediately.
D. She found something similar between the baby and its father.
4.What does the underlined word they refer to?
A. The ears. B The parents. C. The doctor and nurse. D. The problems
5.What’s the function of the last paragraph?
A. To advise readers to listen carefully.
B. To draw a conclusion from the story.
C. To criticize the wrong attitude to physical beauty.
D. To stress the importance of doctor-patient relationship.

“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office.
