A
When I was a child, my mom liked to make food for dinner every now and then．And I remembered one night in particular when she made dinner after a long, hard day at work．
On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage, and extremely burned toast in front of my dad．I remembered waiting to see if anyone noticed．Yet all my dad did was to reach for his toast, smile at my mom and ask me how my day was at school．I didn't remember what I told him that night, but I did remember watching him smear（涂上）butter on that toast and eat every bite!
When I got up from the table that evening, I remembered hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the toast．And I would never forget what he said, "Baby, I love burnt toast．"
Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy goodnight and I asked him if he really liked his toast burned．He wrapped me in his arms and said, "Son, your mom spent a hard day at work today and she's really tired．And besides, a little burnt toast never hurts anyone!"
You know, life is full of imperfect things and imperfect people．I'm not the best housekeeper or cook．What I've learned over the years is that trying to accept faults of each other and choosing to embrace differences of each other are the most important keys to creating a healthy and lasting relationship．

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中"I remembered hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the toast. "（我記得我聽見媽媽在為烤焦的面包向爸爸道歉。）以及第四段中爸爸說的話"Son, your mom spent a hard day at work today and she's really tired．And besides, a little burnt toast never hurts anyone!"（孩子，媽媽今天一天的工作已經(jīng)很忙碌、勞累了，而且，這樣一點點烤焦的面包根本不是什么大問題）可知，作者的媽媽并不是一直都這么粗心，只是那天太勞累了，所以把面包烤焦了。故選A。
