三、阅读理解
A few months ago when we had some big storms through our area, my volunteering work became much busier and harder. We lost electricity for several days, and I sat in the dark telling the noisy and crying children to cheer up. Would I get discouraged for this Of course not. Knowing the fact that I was doing something helpful made me full of energy.
A colleague came to me, telling me about a poor family with four kids. Their roof (屋顶) had been destroyed by lightning and they needed help. I joined him immediately. There was a hole in the kitchen ceiling(天花板) and the whole house was getting flooded. The colleague went to repair the hole. I opened the front and the back doors to create a path for the water.
The children cried every time thunder and lightning came. To calm (使……镇静) them down, I explained that God made noises when he clapped his hands (鼓掌). I let them know God was just trying to remind them by doing this so that he could take their pictures. It was useful. Their little faces lit up.
I heard the kids also passed along the secret to the class. When thunder came again, the kids never cried and all started
checking their clothes. They told the teacher they would look nice when God took pictures. The teacher explained to them that thunder came when two clouds hit each other and that in reality there was no God. A little girl said, “God is going to take your picture. So, you’d better get ready.” I had a good laugh out of that.
