Even if Uncle Ian didn’t think my monkey was special, I certainly did. I dressed him in a white baby nightgown. My mother thought that Ian was the best-dressed stuffed animal in the world. Yes, he was certainly a fashionable creature. The strong cologne（科隆香水）I used on him years ago makes him still smell “pretty”.

　　For a long time, Ian went everywhere with me. He was my best friend, and I told him everything. But when I turned twelve, I realized I was too old for stuffed animals. I thought people would think I was babyish, so I put him in the cupboard with the rest of my teddy bears and dolls. I begged him to understand why I was doing this, but at the same time I longed to talk to him again.

　　It took me several years to realize that it was OK to miss Ian. I know now that maturity（成熟）doesn’t only mean growing up and taking on more responsibility. It also means holding on to your childhood and acting young sometimes.

　　Ian has been with me since I was six years old holding him in my arms connects me to my past and my present as I continue to grow and understand myself.

　　1. Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?

　　A．Bedtime used to be the writer’s favourite part of the day because of the stuffed monkey.

　　BUncle Ian liked the stuffed monkey as much as the writer.

　　C. The writer used to carry the monkey with her wherever she went.
