Several years ago, my parents bought some comic books to entertain my elder brother. He wasn’t interested,

comedy. I immediately started drawing my own comics and I’ve never really stopped. Now I have got a blog where

it’s a good feeling to write back to them.
Last year, I went to a national youth comic festival, which was great for ____64____ in detail how other

Recently, due to the success of my blog, articles about me have appeared in newspapers and magazines. I’m

about the publicity is that some of my comic-writing heroes have written to congratulate me on my success.

Read and answer the questions (阅读短文， 根据以下内容回答问题)
One day when Kelly, my daughter, was out, I entered her room to look for a book, only to find the room rather
messy. I decided to tidy it up and it was no surprise that my daughter was angry about it when she was back.
I couldn’t blame her, as no one likes to feel violated (侵犯). After that, it seemed like I saw the CAUTION
tape more than I saw my daughter’s face. The door to her room, like the door to her thoughts, was often closed. She
spent more and more time by herself and was less and less interested in family movie night. I began to look for a
way back into her world.
One Saturday evening, we went shopping for some clothes for she grew bigger. The errand (差事) became a
totally fun outing because we were together with great joy. We shopped, joked, laughed and laughed.
Besides, we entered a tea shop, tried some of their blend (混合茶叶) and bought a box of a flavor we both
liked. Once the weather turns cold, it is always tea season in our house. This year, with our new tea flavor on tap, I
enjoyed switching the kettle on and shared the tea. A knock on my daughter’s door followed by “Tea, here...” was
always welcomed. I no longer nagged (不停唠叨) about her homework. I no longer nagged about the dirty clothes
on the floor. I no longer tried to ask for information about her social circle. For that moment, I just brought her a
cup of tea, and nothing more.
My ticket into her room came with hot water and a bag of tea leaves. By offering this simple comfort, I gained
some quality time with my daughter.
74. It was surprising that Kelly was angry with what her mother did, wasn’t it?
_______________________________________
75. Please list an example which shows the door to Kelly’s thoughts was closed.

76. Who made the tea, Kelly or the writer?

77. What did the writer no longer nag about?
