请认真阅读下面短文,用英语回答短文后的问题。
When I was a little kid, I thought my dad knew everything. I would ask him all kinds of questions, like how the moon worked or how to play a model plane. He always had the answer. During my teenage years, he taught me useful skills, like how to drive a car, and simple car care, such as checking the tire(轮胎).
As I got older, I moved out on my own. I often called him when something in my flat went wrong, like the toilet, the light, the air conditioner(空调) ... However, after getting married, my husband knew a great deal about fixing household problems. At other times, the Internet became a quick helper. So, I called my dad less and our calls were really short. I don't know when it happened, but our phone calls became just six words. I said, “Hi, Dad.” He said, “Hi, sweet. Here’s Mum.” This was because I still needed Mum for help, like asking for advice on looking after my sick children or cooking tastier chicken soup.
Last summer, when our house was being redecorated, we lived with my parents for a while. Dad asked me to help him in rebuilding the ceiling of the attic(阁楼). As we worked, I was amazed by his skills. How could he be so skillful at this job? When I asked him, he said he’d done this during a college summer. I’d thought I knew all about him, but I was wrong.
I suddenly understood that I used to keep asking Mum and Dad wrong questions all along. Now, I talk to them because I truly want to, not just out of need.
1. During her teenage years, what did the writer’s father teach her?
Useful skills.

2. Why did the writer call her father less?
Because her husband and the Internet could help with household problems and she no longer needed her father's help so much.

3. Please make up a question that the writer truly wants to ask her father. Give your reason.
The writer may ask, “Dad, what other skills did you learn in your youth that I don't know about?” Because she realized she didn't know everything about her father, and she now talks to her parents out of genuine interest, not just need.(言之有理即可)
