This story—which happened before I was born-reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician. I feel embarrassed that I complain about not having enough child-free time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboards. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some pencilled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have travelled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible(看不到的)exhibits at every meal.

　　2. What is the author's original opinion about the wooden stand?

　　A. It has great value for the family.

　　B. It needs to be replaced by a better one.

　　C. It brings her back to her lonely childhood.

　　D. It should be passed on to the next generation.

　　3. The author feels embarrassed for ________.
