I made a turn at the corner and drove past the post office and across the railroad tracks to our house. Mom and I were sitting at the kitchen table when I heard footsteps. There, at the door, stood Frank Townsend, Dad's postmaster and great friend for many years. So we all sat down at the table and began to tell stories.

　　At one point Frank looked at me with tears in his eyes. “What are we going to do about the letters this Christmas？”he asked.

　　“The letters？”

　　“I guess you never knew.”

　　“Knew what？”

　　“Remember, when you were a kid and you used to put your letters to Santa in those green and red boxes on Main Street? It was your dad who answered all those letters every year.”

　　I just sat there with tears in my eyes. It wasn't hard for me to imagine Dad sitting at the old oak table in our basement reading those letters and answering each one. I have since spoken with several of the people who received Christmas letters during their childhood, and they told me how amazed they were that Santa had known so much about their homes and families.

　　For me, just knowing that story about my father was the gift of a lifetime.

　　55. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer regarded his travels with Dad as ________.

　　A. great chances to help other people

　　B. happy occasions to play with baby chickens
