阅读理解 A Although my father wasn’t a doctor, he made his own brand of “house calls”. I followed him as he brought a plate of my mother’s home cooking to an elderly man named Frank on all major holidays, and when Frank was sick. As far as I know, their only connection was that Frank was an occasional customer at Dad’s small gas station. Frank’s home was a two-room house on the rough side of town with a rotten front porch（门廊） that you could fall through if you weren’t careful. Through his caring attitude, my father was teaching me to be a doctor, although neither of us knew it at the time. When I was 13, my father developed lung cancer. He brought home a diagram (图表) the doctor drew showing where his cancer was and told me that he was going to die. The big green oxygen tank with plastic tubing became a central feature of our living room next to his easy chair. Several months passed and his condition worsened. He asked me to take care of my mother when he was gone. He said, “I love you, son.” That night he died. When you’re 13 and your father dies, you have some choices to make. You can use the circumstance as an excuse for letting your behavior and grades go down the drain, or you can honor his memory and try to do something positive with yourself. I focused my energy on my school work and my goal of becoming a doctor. 41. According to the passage, we know that the author’s father was _____.
