My six-year-old boy Jonathan broke a limb of my azalea (杜鹃花) bush and asked me, “Can I take this to school today, mom” With a wave of my hand, I sent him off. And then I turned my back so he couldn’t see the tears in my eyes.
I was in low spirits all day, washing and drying clothes, and thinking how love had disappeared from my life. As hanging up the last of my husband’s shirts, I looked at the clock—4:30. Jonathan’s class ended at 3:15. It was late and I hurriedly drove to the school.
I was out of breath by the time I knocked on the teacher’s door. I peered through the glass. She opened the door and let me in.
“I want to talk to you about Jonathan,” she said. I prepared myself for the worst. Nothing would have surprised me. “Did you know Jonathan brought flowers to school today ” she asked. I nodded, thinking about my favorite bush and trying to hide the hurt in my eyes.
“Let me tell you what happened yesterday,” the teacher continued. “See that little girl ” I saw a bright-eyed child laugh and point to a colorful picture taped to the wall. “Well, yesterday she was almost crazy. Her mother and father are going through a divorce. She told me she didn’t want to live. She wished she could die. I did all I could to comfort her, but it only seemed to make matters worse.”
“Today I watched your son walk to that child and hand her some pretty pink flowers, whispering something.”

Hunger
When I was a young boy, my mother would place spoonfuls of vegetables onto my plate whether I wanted them or not and the rule in our family was that we always had to clean our plates. However, I rarely saw my mother eat the vegetables herself. She always served us first. She seemed never hungry.
She worked for a rich lady in town, and I always assumed that the reason why she didn’t have our tasteless meals was that she had eaten meats and sweets in the rich lady’s kitchen. Our meals were boring, and there was never enough since there were ten of us — my parents plus eight children.
One afternoon my older sisters were sick, so they couldn’t take care of me. Therefore, my mother had no choice but to bring me with her. It was a long winter day and as my father hadn’t had much work, we had even less food than usual. So I was very excited to go to the rich woman’s house.
My mother placed me in a corner while she rolled out pie crust (饼皮). Then she cooked some meat, and by the afternoon, the pleasant smell filled the kitchen and was making its way into my empty stomach. Then, a bell rang in the kitchen and my mother told me, “Don’t move” and then left.
I tried to do as told, but then I thought it wouldn’t matter if I ate just one blackberry. So I put a single blackberry into my mouth. What an explosion of flavor! The wonderful taste hitting my empty stomach was more than I could handle! Soon I was throwing blackberries into my mouth with two hands! It wasn’t until I was staring at the empty bowl that I noticed the empty, unbaked pie crust sitting on the table waiting for the berries. I looked around for more berries, but there was none. Suddenly, I heard footsteps approaching, so I quickly hid into the cupboard (碗柜).

I was my room, unwilling to perform on the stage of community with “my brother” Bob. He was just adopted by my parents recently.
“Grave, come here,” my mum called. Following her voice, I found her outside the bathroom, holding a wet book. She gave the book a shake. “Bob’s book was in the bathtub. Did you put it there ” She glared at me, something she never did before Bob came to our home. I didn’t wet his book on purpose. Tears of hurt clouded my eyes. Worse still, she promised to buy him a new copy. My heart ached. Bob was sealing my moth’s love. He was ruining my life.
Meanwhile, Bob was just nearby, absorbed in working on a complicated rope knot (绳结) as usual. Why did boy like him do the girly work Far from manly!
Soon it was time to have to set off to the community theatre. As Bob walked ahead of us to the car, my mum took me aside and said in a low voice, “It’s the first time for Bob to be on stage. Be kind to him, Honey.” l nodded but sighed. Being kind didn’t use to be hard. But after Bob moved in, everything felt different. The theatre used to be a special place for my parents and me. ‘
Finally, it was our stage time. My heart beat wildly. I forgot my annoyance at Bob for a while. As we kids lined up, ready to act out our short play, I realized how loosely I had tied the drawstring (束带) on my skirt. Sure enough, my skirt began to drop. Laughter from the audience could be heard, and even though I was wearing shorts under my skirt, I could feel my face burst into flames. However, my hands were full. If only someone could help me out!

Give time to our family
After 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner and a movie. She said, “I love you, but I know this other woman loves you and would love to spend some time with you.”
The other woman that my wife wanted me to visit was my MOTHER, who had lived alone for 19 years after my father’s death, but the demands of my work and my three children had made it possible to visit her only occasionally. That night I called to invite her to go out for dinner and a movie. “What’s wrong, are you well ” she asked.
“I thought that it would be pleasant to spend some time with you,” I responded. “Just the two of us.”
She thought about it for a moment, and then said, “I would like that very much.”
That Friday after work, as I drove over to pick her up, I was a bit nervous. When I arrived at her house, I noticed that she, too, seemed to be nervous about our date. She waited in the door with her coat on. She had curled her hair and was wearing the dress that she had worn to celebrate her last wedding anniversary. She smiled from a face that was as radiant as an angel’s.”
We went to a restaurant that, although not elegant, was very nice and warm. After we sat down, I had to read the menu. Her eyes could only read large print. Halfway through the menu, I lifted my eyes and saw Mom sitting there staring at me. A nostalgic (令人怀念的)smile was on her lips. “It was I who used to have to read the menu when you were small,” she said. “Then it’s time that you relax and let me return the favor,” I responded. During the dinner, we had an agreeable conversation-nothing extraordinary but catching up on recent events of each other’s life. As we arrived at her house later, she said, “I’ll go out with you again, but only if you let me invite you.” I agreed.
A few days later, my mother died of a massive heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn’t have a chance to do anything for her.

My daughter and I were fans of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, an educational children’s television series that was created and hosted by Fred Rogers, more commonly known as Mister Rogers.
Around my daughter’s second birthday, I had a Mister Rogers-inspired idea. Why not invite one key person in my daughter’s world to dinner each month The local children’s librarian could visit one evening, and perhaps the borough mayor (区长) could drop by a few weeks later.
But I wanted to start at the top.
“Let’s invite Mister Rogers himself, ” I said to my wife. “After all, he lives just a few neighborhoods away. I bet he’d come.”
She looked at me as if I wanted to invite the President. “You really think Mister Rogers would come to our house for dinner Fat chance.”
Undeterred (不气馁的), I sent a letter to Mister Rogers that fall, telling him of my newfound delight in his show and my idea for inviting neighborhood people over to talk about their lives, and asking him and Mrs. Rogers to be our guests.
I told my daughter about the letter. Her eyes glistened (发光). “Mister Rogers coming Really, Daddy ”
One month later, no reply. My daughter hadn’t forgotten and periodically asked when Mister Rogers would be visiting. I always told her that he hadn’t called yet and that it was a good opportunity to learn about patience.
Two months later, no response. At the three-month mark, my wife simply rolled her eyes when I raised the topic. I was beginning to lose optimism. Mister Rogers had let me down.
Sadly, Mister Rogers passed away in late February of the following year. I was unaware of his illness and now understood why our invitation had gone unanswered. Mister Rogers would not be coming to dinner after all. Yet, even after his passing, Mister Rogers gave us a far greater gift than I ever could have imagined.

A Wise Friend
This story begins one late afternoon in Carl’s backyard, in Detroit, Michigan. Carl and I were sixteen years old. We had just finished playing stickball, and I was about to get on my bike to go home.
“Wait a minute,Benny.” Carl yelled. He ran into his house and came back with a book for me to take home and read. All he said was, “See if you like it, and it will help you a lot.” I said absolutely nothing. I hated school because I hated reading. I kept the book for a couple of weeks and then returned it unread. Carl never asked me whether I liked it or not.
During the following two years, Carl lent me three more books. The last one was Martin Eden by Jack London. Each time I returned them unread.
A few days after graduating from high school, Carl asked,“Benny, I’m applying for Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania, and what college are you going to ”
“I’m not going to college.”
“Why not ” he asked.
“Because my father can’t afford the seventy-five dollars for tuition.”
“Is that it ” Carl asked.
“Yes,” I said.
I lied. I had no intention of going back to school now that I was out.
The following day Carl knocked on my door and handed me a check for seventy-five dollars from his father.
“I think that should do it,” he said.
Once again I was in shock. What could I say except thank you Because I was working full-time in my brother’s bakery, I enrolled in two classes at Wayne State University in Detroit part-time at night.
Halfway through the semester, and after receiving failing grades on exams and essays, I decided that there was no way I would ever become a brilliant student and get satisfactory grades. I dropped out of college and continued working in the bakery.

I loved the challenge of conquering something bigger than myself. Soon I’d climbed nearly 100 peaks. I often go climbing with my friend Mel Olsen, whom I met in a Facebook group. Three years ago, on December 30, the two of us drove to Oregon to tackle Mount Hood, a 3,400-metre volcano.
It’s safer to start climbs at night, when there’s less risk of the sun melting the snowpack. We started our climbing at 3 am, following the paths alongside the ski runs. It was about -10 ℃, and we wore easily removed layers, knowing we didn’t want to get too hot on the climb. Along the way, we met two other climbers, and the four of us continued on together. After about five hours, we reached a plateau at about 3,000 metres, just before the final push up the mountain. By this point, it felt like my exposed skin was burning. The other climbers decided to turn back, but we went ahead.
At around 9 a.m., we reached an ice step about a metre tall and sloping at around 75 degrees. I volunteered to go up ahead of Mel. Then I suddenly heard a crack, and a whole slab of ice broke off the step, right under my toot.
First I fell backwards, and then I slid. I could hear Mel calling my name as 1 bounced off the rock face. I remember thinking, This is it. You’re done. I stretched out my arms and legs so I wouldn’t turn over down the mountain. I’d fallen about 200 metres. My clothes were shredded, my helmet was broken, and I had cuts and scratches all over my face.
When I hit the ground, I was buzzing. I started to see where I was hurt. When I reached my left leg, I couldn’t feel anything. So I tied moving my toes. That worked—at least I wasn’t paralyzed (瘫痪).
As Mel made her way down, I started yelling for help, and a bunch of other climbers came to assist me.

When we got to the bottom of Mount Hood, I was taken straight to a hospital, where I stayed for four days.

My mouth felt dry as I followed my mother into the doctor’s office and sank into a chair next to hers. This doctor had a room full of gadgets (小装置) and gizmos (小物件) to analyze the learning abilities of failing students. That day he had analyzed (分析) me. “I’m sorry to tell you this, Mrs. Dow, but Peter has dyslexia (阅读障碍). A fairly serious case.”
I swallowed and tried to breathe. The doctor went on. “He’ll never read above the fourth-grade level. Since he won’t be able to complete high school requirements,I suggest you enroll (使登记) him in a trade school where he can learn to work with his hands.” I didn’t want to go to trade school (职校). I wanted to apply at Bible College in our town to be a preacher (牧师), like my dad. I forced my tears back. A twelve-year-old was too big to cry. “Thank you, Doctor.” We drove home.
Dyslexia I’d never heard it before. Sure, I was always the slowest kid in my class. I had a special hiding place where I would cry because I couldn’t do my lessons however hard I tried. Of course, I never told my mom about that. I was too ashamed. I didn’t want to worry her, either. She had enough on her mind with teaching school full-time and taking care of Dad and me.
On reaching home, my mom looked into my eyes with tears running down her cheeks. Seeing her cry was too much for me. Before I knew what was happening, I was in her arms crying. A few minutes later she said, “Honey. I want to talk to you.”I waited,sniffling (抽泣).“You heard what the doctor said about your not finishing school. I don’t believe him.”

Standing in front of the mirror one day, I came to the disturbing realization that I fell short of the requirements of my dream. The reflection that stared back was of a skinny brown-haired girl who stood a mere five feet tall. My entire life had been about dedication and trying to be the best dancer in my studio. I’d always had brilliant dreams and high ambitions. I never noticed how hard it might be to achieve something that you really wanted. Most people spend their whole lives searching for their calling, but I’ve known that I was born to be a dancer since I met my brilliant inspiring mentor, Lorie Bernier, 5 feet 1 inch. I’ve devoted sixteen years to helping my dream come true to be a lifelong dance teacher at my studio.
Last summer I attended an audition class in Boston taught by a highly respected Broadway dancer. At this seminar he explained the procedures for getting into a dance company. While listening and taking notes, I was thinking that I certainly had the experience, but there was one area where I didn’t quite measure up. He informed us that at most audition all dancers under 5 feet 6 inches are automatically eliminated or simply overlooked. He said that most casting directors were looking for the stereotyped dancer with long legs, a long neck and a size one waist. Standing half a foot under this height, I felt my heart drop to the floor.
It is really hard to listen to someone basically telling you, “Sorry, but you’ve been working really hard for sixteen years for nothing, so find a new dream.” Unfortunately, it just doesn’t work that way. Dancing isn’t just a hobby for me; it’s more like an addiction. I exhibit every step heart and soul. Through dance I find a sense of pride and satisfaction that I don’t think anyone could understand or appreciate. To have all that I’ve ever wanted instantly shot down created a sick feeling in my stomach.
Paragraph 1:
Furthermore, I knew that at that moment I could do one of two things.

My family immigrated to Canada when I was about one year old. In those early years, we did not have much money. Our home was a simple rented apartment, which was rather poorly furnished. There certainly was not enough money for expensive outings. As a result, our weekends were filled with simple pleasures that we could do for free, like picnics, bike rides, and my favorite—trips to the library.
Thanks to the library’s children’s section, I fell in love with stories—silly ones, moving ones, and even educational ones. I would have my parents read the books that we borrowed over and over again until we needed to return them, or I would page through them myself, imagining the stories in my head, even though I was too young to read the words.
When I was about five years old and finally started to read on my own, I had a curious thought: I knew we could get books from the library or buy them in store s if we had the money, but where did books come from
I asked my mother this question, to which she replied that the stories I loved were created in the imaginations of people called “writers” These people then wrote them down so they could be s hared with others.
Four decades later, I still remember that moment. It was as though I had been struck by lightning. Then and there, I knew my purpose in this world. I would be one of those writers. I would create stories and share them with the world.

参考答案
1.I knew at once what had happened and felt my heart swell with pride. I smiled at the teacher. “Thank you,” I said, reaching for Jonathan’s hand, “You’ve made my day.” While driving back home, I still recalled the love Jonathan showed the little girl and realized that it was what I needed to show my family members. Therefore, when my husband came back home, I snapped a small limb bristling with hot pink azaleas off the bush. I handed him the flowers. “I love you,” I said.
In the evening, my husband and I sat in the sitting room, talking about the bush. We used to love azaleas because they were beautiful, but on that day we knew that they could also bring hope and love to others. We decided to plant more azaleas. At this moment, Jonathan came up behind us, apologizing for pulling up our favorite azalea. With tears in my eyes, I hold him in my arms. “You did the right thing, my son,” I said. “We are proud of you.”

3.Right then, Henry sensed my embarrassment. He immediately came to my aid. He pulled up my skirt and skillfully tied the drawstring with a beautiful knot. Seeing what Henry did for me, something deep in my mind began to change. It seemed as if my cold heart began to melt slowly and my annoyance at him gradually gave way to guilt. I regretted having treated him as a stranger. While my mind was wandering, our performance time came. It turned out a great success, thunderous applause filling the whole theatre.
After the performance, I found Henry and tapped him on the arm gratefully. “Thanks,” I said with a grateful smile on my face. I had to admit that but for his timely help, I would have been extremely embarrassed. Without his knotting skill, the performance would have been quite different. “KNOT a problem. You are my sister,” he grinned innocently, saying humorously. Surrounded by the cheerful atmosphere, I felt a flood of warmth of a big family. Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to have a new person in my corner of the world after all.

A week later, I was surprised to find a letter in our mailbox from Mister Rogers. With my trembling hands, I fingered the letter and read it word for word. He appreciated my daughter’s enjoyment of his program and thanked us for our invitation, adding that he was much honored to be our “guest” . But he apologized for not responding sooner and not being able to make it to our dinner party then due to his stomach cancer treatment. In a delightful tone he expressed his wish to meet some day. The one-page typed letter was like something from an old friend: personal and caring.
The letter is a treasured gift and his kind words touched my life and my daughter. We could never imagine it was written when he was then suffering great pains. Mister Rogers is gone, but his remarkable talents are left behind. Rogers never came for dinner, but his belief in the importance of being good neighbors is passed on. His spirits will never die: caring for people including the unknown, hoping for the future, and most importantly, posing a positive attitude to life whatever happens. When least expected, sometimes the best presents in life come from a special neighbor.

6.One possible version:
When I got married, a wedding gift arrived from Carl, a book, just Martin Eden. “What a waste,” I said. “It will never get read.” But then, the more I thought about it, the more I realized that Carl was trying to tell me something. “What do you have to lose ” my wife asked. “Carl took the time to send it to you; you might as well take some time and read it. Once you’ve read it, you can do anything you want.” A couple of days later I started to read the book. By the time I finished reading the book, which took me over two years, I recorded the definitions of hundreds of words in the margins.
Now I understood why Carl wanted me to read the book. For the first time in my life there was a ray of hope that I did not have to remain ignorant for the rest of my life. Once the world of books opened up to me, it became a road of excitement at the turn of every page. Only those who have been buried so deeply in ignorance, and have been able to see the light by reading books, can possibly understand the thrill of becoming enlightened. My life would never be the same again. More importantly, it was never too late.

7.One possible version:
As Mel made her way down, I started yelling for help, and a bunch of other climbers came to assist me. They splinted my leg and called Portland Mountain Rescue. They took about two hours to get to where I was. Mel waited beside me while I tried not to scream from the pain. The next challenge was getting me off the mountain. Eventually they loaded a sled, but I was higher than the drop-off, so they dragged it the rest of the way. I’d been lying there for about four hours by that point. They strapped me into the sled and pulled me down the mountain.
When we got to the bottom of Mount Hood, I was taken straight to a hospital, where I stayed for four days. The doctors told me it would be a year before I could climb again, but I was back on the trails within six months. In May 2020, I climbed Mount Crickmer, in the Fraser Valley. It was only about 20 kilometres, and a gentle elevation, but it felt amazing to be out there again. I’ve climbed another 60 mountains since the accident. I’m not going to let one fall—no matter how terrifying—keep me from doing my favourite thing in the world.

8.I stopped sniffling and looked at her. Her mild blue eyes smiled into mine. Behind them lay an iron will. “We’ll have to work very hard, you, dad, and I, but I think we can do it. Now that I know what the problem is, we can try to overcome it. I’m going to hire a tutor who knows about dyslexia. I’ll work with you myself evenings and weekends. Her eyebrows drew down as she peered at me. “Are you willing to work, Peter Do you want to try ”
A ray (线) of hope shone through the uncertain future. “Yes, Mom. I really want to.” The next six years were an endurance run for both of us. I studied with a tutor twice a week until I could haltingly read my lessons. Each night my mom and I sat at my little desk and rehearsed that day’s schoolwork for at least two hours, sometimes until midnight. We drilled for tests until my head pounded and the print blurred before my eyes. At least twice a week, I wanted to quit. I had the strength of a kitten, but my mom’s courage never wavered.

9.Paragraph 1:
Furthermore, I knew that at that moment I could do one of two things. I could settle for a new dream, or I could commit myself to the hard uphill battle to come. I’ve never been known as a person who gives up easily with high ambitions, so I’ve been working even harder to make up for what I lack!
Paragraph 2:
However, it really doesn’t matter how high the disadvantages are against me, for I will rise above them. It’s time for me to “keep my nose to the grindstone” because despite what anyone sees, the only direction of my life is going up. Whether I end up becoming a Broadway dancer or opening a local dance studio doesn’t matter, because I will do one or the other by choice, not because I am not qualified. I’m glad at knowing I’m not alone in this battle. My mentor, Lorie Bernier, who stands 5 feet 1 inch with great achievements in dancing, always inspires me. So I will keep to my dancing dream, committing my time and energy to it heart and soul.

As a young child, I began writing by making up stories about animals or my toys. I described the cute animals I saw and wrote them into short stories.

I showed people the positive energy and positive things in life with my small pen.

After a few years of constant writing practice, my hard work eventually paid off. My teacher told me that my writing was novel in conception and unique in language.
