I missed her a lot. I was her favorite granddaughter and she was my favorite grandma.Two years later my mother and father separated and soon divorced. I felt as if my world was falling apart. I lived with my mother for a time, next door to my grandma and grandpa in an apartment while my father was away during World War Ⅱ. Grandma never had much in the way of money or material things. But it was the little things she gave me that let me feel warm, like letting me dip my fingers in the sugar bowl, letting me sip the coffee from her cup or allowing me to sit on the table as I had meals.Though she didn’t have much, she did something for my brother and me. I will always remember she saved her coins in a glass jar. I thought my grandma could have used these coins herself, but she saved them to give us when we came to visit her.I don’t remember how much we collected on our visits, nor was the amount(数目)important. It was the idea that she remembered us, and cared about us when we were away from her.1．What happened to the writer when she was eight years old?A． She moved away from her grandma.    B． She moved away from her parents.C． She lived with her grandparents.    D． She lived with her aunt.2．What does the underlined word“divorced” mean in Chinese in Paragraph 2?A． 和好    B． 打架   C． 离婚      D． 生气3．The writer’s grandma allowed her to do many things.
