Ⅰ.[2019·重庆B] 阅读理解
When Tim was a boy, he met a girl named Rose. They became close friends because they both dreamt of going to Wonderland. They promised to each other that one day they would build a house there.
Before long, they got married and moved to the old house where they first met. They lived a happy life there and decided to save money for their dream to Wonderland. But life wasn’t easy. Year after year, they always had to spend their fund on more pressing(迫切的) needs. Sadly, Wonderland remained a dream when Rose died.
Living in the house alone, Tim missed Rose so much and would often think of the dream they once shared. One day, the 78-year-old man made up his mind. He bought thousands of balloons to help his house fly in the sky. Then he started flying to Wonderland.
On the journey, Tim met a child, Dan, and invited him in. Something exciting happened. Lucky, a talking dog, joined in. They fought against a bad man and saved Kris, a bird who couldn’t fly. With the help of the flying house, they continued their journey.
In the end, Tim realised his dream. Together with his new friends, he landed his house at Wonderland.
