I saw my grandparents often, and theyd tell me story after story of a past world and of the people who lived in it. One summer night I walked through a wood with my grandfather. He told me a story about from where he and his family had come and the woods he had explored as a boy. My grandfathers immediate family came from Quebec, Canada. His distant relatives came from France. He always wanted to take me to his hometown near Montreal (the largest city in Quebec), but we hadnt yet had the opportunity. The woods in French Canada, he said, were strong and old, and Quebec had a lot of maples. When we came in from our walk, Grandpa took out one of his dusty shoeboxes from an underground room and sat down next to me. Since then, to my surprise, Ive never seen the same shoebox appear twice from the room; his family records areastounding. In the dusty boxes were old photographs of family members going about their daily business. My great-grandmother was pictured cooking in the kitchen. There is a photograph of boys skating on a pond, hockey (曲棍球) sticks raised in celebration of a goal. As the pictures appeared, I felt an eagerness to know these people from my familys past. After that day, I often joined my grandpa to learn about my French-Canadian ancestry.We spent our time together drawing a detailed (详细的) family tree; its base was formed by our French ancestors who first arrived in America. Our search for information uncovered amazing historical documents, such as ships accounts. Datesrecognizing births and deathswere fairly easy to find; bits of ancestors life stories became increasingly challenging to uncover as we dug deeper into the past. Now, though, were preserving this history so that our progeny (后代) may learn from these stories and take comfort in knowing that, though life may end, family goes on forever.24. The underlined word “astounding” probably means _.A. formal B. amazingC. careless D. brief25. When did the author begin to study his family history?A. When he first visited his grandparents.B. When he visited his great-grandmother.C. After he discovered some photos in his house.D. After he had a summer night with his grandpa.26. What was difficult for the author and his grandpa to study?A. Their ancestors life stories.B. The base of their family tree.C. Their ancestors historical documents.
