  读故事单词雅思词汇-A father found

  Mark met his father for the first time at the centennial celebration of the cathedral's construction. Mark was catering for the celebrity-filled ceremony when he heard a caustic voice. There, standing only three meters away was a man with a catching young woman. He was talking on his cellular phone about delivering some certificate as soon as possible.

  "No, we need it now. How can we celebrate without the main award? Yes. I know the Bishop has been censured officially, but this event is not about him. I run the biggest cement company in Germany...no, not a ceramic company, you idiot! ... and I am the presiding president of the central committee. You get that certificate here now, or you will cease to have your job. Do you understand? Don't make this a catastrophe or I'll make your life hell!"

  Mark looked in amazement. He knew that this was his father based on what his mother had told him.But Mark knew that he should proceed with caution. His father was in a whole other category of people. Mark's mother was just a worker as was he. His father might not even remember her!

  But Mark was not so cautious. He approached the man, said who he was and waited for his father's response. His father stared in surprise and then burst out in tears. He wrapped his arms around Mark and said that he had been looking for him and his mother for years. He had even searched every census,all to no avail. Now they were reunited.

  The catching young woman smiled as well. His father introduced her and said, "This is your half sister. Welcome to a new family, young man!"

  在大教堂建成一百周年的庆祝活动上，马克第一次见到了他的父亲。当时，马克正在为名流云集的庆典提供食物，忽然他听到了尖利刺人的声音。那边，就在离他只有三米远的地方，站着一个男人，身边还有个迷人的年轻女人。男人正对着蜂窝式移动电话讲话，说是要尽快送个什么证书。

  “不，我们现在就要。没有主要奖品，我们怎么庆祝”是的，我知道主教受到了官方指责，但这个活动不是为他举办的。我在德国经营最大的水泥公司......不，不是陶瓷制品公司，你这个白痴!......我可是中央委员会主持工作的主席。你现在就把证书给我送过来，要不你就会停职了。明白吗?你别给我捅娄子，否则我让你吃不了兜着走!”

  马克惊奇地看着这一切。根据母亲对他讲过的一切，他知道那个男人就是他的父亲。但马克知道，自己必须小心行事。他父亲完全属于另一类人。母亲和他一样都是工人。父亲也许根本就不记得她啦!但是马克还是不够谨慎。他走近那个男人，亮明了自己的身份，等待着对方的反应。他父亲惊奇地盯着他，然后便泪如泉涌。他伸出双手抱住马克，说多年来他一直在寻找他们母子俩，甚至还查了每一次人口普查资料，结果都没有奏效。现在他们终于团圆了。

  那个漂亮的年轻女人也笑了，父亲介绍说：“这是你同父异母的妹妹。小伙子，欢迎来到你的新家。”
