高考第二轮复习英语阅读理解练习（含解析） 阅读理解：阅读下面短文，从题后所给的A、B、C、D四个答案中选出最佳选项。 A When he thought of the past, my grandfather would sometimes show us photographs of himself at school. They were brown and faded, and it was hard to believe that the blurred figure of the little boy in the short trousers and socks could ever have been Grandfather. Besides, he wore a capand the boys in the photographs wore caps pulled so far forward that half of their faces were obscured. When Grandfather asked us to pick him out from the group, we would surely point to the wrong boy. On one such occasion my younger sister, aged six, burst into tears when Grandfather proudly guided her finger to the right boy. How could that boy be you? she cried. He should have a beard.” We were, of course, all convinced that grandfathers should have beards , preferably white and bushy, like our own grandfathers. I was a good scholar ,”Grandfather would say, wagging his beard over the photographs. I should have been top of the c1ass if I hadnt had to get up at six every morning to milk the cows and chop the wood, and again when I came home from school.” But Saturdays? What did you do on Saturdays? Saturdays, if it was fine, I’d be out all day in the fields with the men, replied Grandfather. And if it was wet, I’d be helping my mother with odd jobs round the house. There wasnt much time for studying. We all tried hard to imagine what it would have been like to have been Grandfather getting up at crack of dawn and never, obviously, having a moment for himself. It seemed we had learnt something from what Grandfather had said about his childhood. 1. In the first paragraph of this passage, what the author really tells us is that______.
