VI.阅读表达（共15分）
Once there was a famine (饥荒）in the town . A rich and kind baker (面包师） sent some bread to twenty of the poorest children . He said to them , “In this basket , there is some bread for you . Each of you can have one loaf (一条面包） every day until the hard days end .”
The impatient children couldn’t wait to gather around the basket . They shouted and fought for the bread because each wished to have the largest loaf . At last they went away without even thanking the good gentleman . But Shirley , a poorly dressed little girl , did not join them . Instead , she remained standing modestly in the distance . When the other children left , she took the smallest loaf left in the basket , kissed the gentleman’s hand and went home.
The next day the children were as rude as before . Poor shy Shirley still took the smallest loaf . When she got home , her mother cut the bread open . Many new shining pieces of silver fell out of it . Her mother was very surprised and said , “Take the money back to the good gentleman at once , for it must have got into the loaf by accident . Be quick , Shirley ! Be quick !”
But when the little girl gave the rich man her mother’s message , he said, “No , no , my child . It was no mistake . I put silver into the smallest loaf to reward you because you are a kind and honest girl . Go home , and the money is yours now.”
