One day last winter we received our first huge snowfall. An hour later I decided to let my dog out. That was when I got the shock! My sidewalk was cleaned and my path too. I had no idea who did this good deed. I looked over to my neighbor's driveway where the husband stood, open-mouthed and surprised. His sidewalk was also cleared. I asked him who did it. He just shook his head and let me know that he had no idea.

A week later we had another snowfall and I promised to pay attention this time just in case we had another visit from our snow angel. It was a good plan, but I got busy inside and forgot to keep a look out. Sure enough when I remembered to look out the snow had once again been cleared away.

Now I became determined to find my guardian(保护人) of the snow. Some three weeks went by when the snow started to fall again. I went to get a book and sat at the window just as the snow tapered off and my reading was interrupted by the sound of a shovel(铲子). I got to my feet to look out and was so choked up that I just stood there. My snow angel was an eight-year-old boy who lived a few houses away from me.

A month after the snows, I called him over and asked him if he knew of anybody who

shoveled for me. He said, “I guess it was someone who likes you." So without taking credit for his good deed, he turned and left.

4. When the author saw her sidewalk was cleaned, she felt _________.

A. excited

B. satisfied

C. discouraged

D. surprised

5. The second time the author failed to check who cleaned the snow. Because

she___________.

A. stood too far to see anything
