阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C、D) 中，选出最佳选项。
A
Sitting on the porch( 门 廊 )of an aging home, you can see shadows on the lawn moving as
the wind passes through the trees.
A leaf floats to the ground, suggesting the coming of fall.
This wide porch was built as the main part of the home. The rest of the house surrounds it on both sides, like huge arms extending a hug. Countless stories have been shared on this porch by every member of the family for over 30 years.
The family that grew here enjoyed everyday pleasures—singing in the car, laughter at mealtime and football games on Sundays. When the father hit 55, his wife insisted he quit playing Sunday afternoon football with the kids. The mother never played, as she was stricken with a terrible illness after the birth of their second child and before the births of their next three. Never able to walk again, she managed to carry on anyway and raise her five children.
Sometimes, she even had to manage by dragging herself across the floor. She never complained ( 抱 怨 ) about the challenges of her illness, nor did her husband complain about the extra care he had to give his wife after she became ill.
There's something familiar when you enter the house. It's the smell of old books and magazines, the sheet music on the piano, and the pictures of the family hanging in every room.
The homeowners are no longer there—they both recently passed away. And yet, their lives are still in the hearts of family and friends. They weren't rock stars or celebrities ( 名 人 ) and they won't be remembered in history books. Yet they made a history of their own, by creating simple beauty in everyday life and by living through challenges without complaining.
That is truly the best remembrance of all.
