问题     My parents knew their wealth: each other, their six children, and their faith. They tried to live simple lives so that they could have time for what was most important. They didn’t busy themselves buying a bigger house, because that would mean working harder to pay the monthly mortgage, working overtime or taking second job. Who would go running with me then? Who would read stories to me?
    They didn’t burden themselves with buying an expensive car because that would mean worrying about installment bills. Besides, walking to the shopping centre every Saturday afternoon with me gave my dad his needed exercise, and made me feel so special.
    One of my heart’s delights was seeing Dad and Mom in their bedroom at night, after our nighdy family prayer. The lights were turned off, and I’d see the figure of my father seated on his old chair and Mom standing behind him, gently massaging his shoulders. I’ d hear them talk about what happened during their day. Even as a child, I sensed their quiet pleasure in being together.
    My question today: Could they have done this rich ritual each night and nourished their marriage if they had been busy paying for expensive clothes for themselves or their kids, or if they had been worrying about monthly bills for new high-tech equipment? I don’t think so. And I’ve made a choice: I don’ t want that of life either.
What did the parents regularly do with the author? ______
选项 A、They wrote stories together
B、They read newspapers together
C、They regularly took exercise together
D、They went shopping together each day
答案C
解析 根据文章可知，“the parents read stories to the author”，故A项错误；B项文章中没有提到；由文章中“would go running with me”可知C项正确；“they went shopping every Saturday afternoon”，而不是each day，故D项错误。
