Ollivier Jean-Baptiste,25, a vlogger from France living in China, delivered a speech on the latest episode of the China Daily Youth Power series. The episode, named “Timeless Tales from China”, was aired on Jan. 30.
In his speech, titled “Bridging Cultures: A Personal Journey from France to China”, Jean-Baptiste spoke about his initial impressions of China. Just like his family and friends, he saw China as a distant and mysterious place with a culture entirely different from France and other Western countries.
The idea of visiting China first came to him when his uncle, who worked in China, returned with endless praise for the Chinese lifestyle. “Everything, from the food to the scenery, was incredibly appealing to me,” he recalled.
Later, a Chinese woman introduced him personally to the everyday life of Chinese people. He learned to use WeChat, Alipay, and navigate Chinese social media, which exposed him to a different way of living. The woman later became his wife, and they moved to Beijing together in 2022, which Jean-Baptiste described as “eye-opening” for him.
“She took me to see the flag-raising ceremony. Witnessing countless young people rushing toward the flag, I was deeply moved. It’s a country of strength, unity, and love,” he said.
These experiences made Jean-Baptiste eager to explore different aspects of Chinese culture. He visited the Great Wall in Beijing and the Terracotta Army in Xi’an, Northwest China’s Shaanxi province. When he returned to France for vacation and shared photos of his travels and life in China with his family, they were also excited.
Apart from his personal experiences in China, Jean-Baptiste noticed that friendly interactions between the two countries are also increasing. After learning about the 15-day visa-free travel from France to China, his family and friends couldn’t wait to book their trip to China.
“I’m overjoyed to host them during the 60th anniversary of China-France diplomatic relations, showcasing China’s modern development and rich history,” he said. “I may be just an ordinary person with limited influence, but everyone can be a cultural ambassador.”
4. What inspired Jean-Baptiste to come to China
A. His uncle’s positive experiences. B. His family’s encouragement.
C. A Chinese woman’s introduction. D. His fascination with Chinese history.
5. How is Paragraph 6 mainly developed
A. By listing data. B. By giving definitions.
C. By making comparisons. D. By providing examples.
6. What can we know from Jean-Baptiste’s words
A. He is easily moved.
B. He is impressed by Chinese people.
C. He travels around China with curiosity.
D. He tends to serve as a cultural ambassador.
7. Where can we probably read this text
A. In a guideline. B. In a website.
C. In a government report. D. In a parenting magazine.

How much salt is too much salt Unfortunately, it’s most likely the amount you’re consuming.
A new study published Monday in the journal JAMA found that cutting one teaspoon of salt a day results in a decline in blood pressure comparable to taking blood pressure medication.
Humans need sodium (钠), which is found in salt, for our bodies to work properly. It plays an important role in nerve and muscle function by allowing nerves to pulse with electricity and muscles to contract. But too much sodium can be bad for our health. It contributes to high blood pressure, or hypertension (高血压)which is a major cause of stroke and heart disease.
One way it does this is by making the body absorb more water. Extra sodium in the blood pulls more water into blood vessels (血管), which increases the amount of blood in the vessels. This increases blood pressure and, in some people, leads to high blood pressure and can damage vessels and even organs like the heart, kidney s and brain.
In this latest study, participants who cut out their daily salt intake by one teaspoon had lower blood pressure in just one week. This was even true for people already on blood pressure medication.
But how much sodium is in one teaspoon of salt A teaspoon of salt has about 2,300 mg of sodium in it. And according to the FDA, Americans eat an average of 3,400 mg of sodium. So cutting out a teaspoon would be equivalent to cutting two-thirds of a person’s daily sodium intake.
But the researchers say that cutting out any amount of sodium will help lower blood pressure-at least more than no reduction at all.
8. What is the function of Paragraph 1
A. To describe an interesting fact. B. To present a confusing question.
C. To introduce the topic of the text. D. To provide background information.
9. How does too much sodium harm us
A. By causing muscle disorders. B. By bringing about hypertension.
C. By directly damaging our organs. D. By absorbing the water in blood vessels.
10. What does the underlined word “equivalent” in Paragraph 6 probably mean
A. Equal. B. Relevant. C. Beneficial. D. Important.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The Recommendation on the Intake of Salt
B. The Less Sodium We Have, the Better We Are
C. Cutting One Teaspoon of Salt May Improve Health
D. The Relationship Between Salt and Blood Pressure
D
It is natural to compare ourselves to others and to get caught in a mental comparison loop, and yet this seldom is beneficial. You may have heard the expression. “Comparison is the thief of joy. “To me, this rings true as I have found it is quite difficult to compare myself to others and feel joy at the same time.
Comparison not only robs us of joy, but it can also fuel self-criticism and a lack of self-acceptance. Typically, comparison leads to perceiving others as superior to you in some way and feeling inadequate or inferior. “I am not as successful, competent, attractive as they are. “Why don’t I have what they have ” We use comparison as an avenue for self-criticism, “What’s wrong with me I must be an inadequate loser.” This hinders(阻碍)self-acceptance.
We often tell ourselves we are acceptable only if we meet certain standards, and we evaluate how we measure up by looking at others. The tendency is to conclude that we are not measuring up, particularly if we have a low sense of self-worth, and we worry that others are going to judge or criticize our perceived failures. We don’t just ask ourselves. “What’s wrong with me ” We worry what others will think: “What’s wrong with them ” The looming(迫近的)sense of possible rejection creates uneasiness and anxiety.
Comparison is deceptive(造成假象的). It tells us that if we meet the expectations, lose weight, get a promotion, or buy the house, we will feel better, calmer, more self-assured, and stop comparing ourselves. This may be temporarily true, yet, a comparison is an internal process that is ultimately based on our thoughts and sense of self, not external circumstances. We can always find something else to compare, another expectation we tell ourselves we are not meeting.
To stop comparing ourselves to others, we have to recognize that the comparison game is unwinnable and exhausting and stop playing. We should shift from being guided by comparison to being guided by personal values.
12. What is the author’s attitude towards comparison
A. Supportive. B. Tolerant. C. Negative. D. Uncertain.
13. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A. The significance of comparison. B. The joy of self-acceptance.
C. The necessity of self-criticism. D. The consequences of comparison.
14. What can be inferred about comparison from Paragraph 4
A. It is rooted in our inner thoughts.
B. It makes us become better.
C We will stop it if we achieve our goals.
D. It is a reliable measure of success.
15. What will the author talk about in the following paragraph
A. How we can change personal values.
B Why personal values are important to us.
C. How personal values help stop comparison.
D. What impact technology has on comparison.

Fears are a normal part of childhood. Sometimes kids are afraid of imaginary things, like monsters. But often, fears are related to what’s going on in their lives. Learning to cope with fear isn’t always easy. ____16____ They may have trouble processing information and keeping emotions in check. Here are some things you can try to help your child manage fears.
Take the fear seriously.
Sometimes to help our kids, we say things like “There’s nothing to be scared of.” ____17____ Instead , it can send the message that you expect your child to “get over it.” Or that you don’t believe your child is terrified. Not taking fear seriously can make your child feel like it’s not okay to be afraid or that it’s not okay to talk to you about it.
Make a list.
Work with your child to list the things or situations that cause fear. Go over your child’s worst-case scenario(情况). ____18____ For example, kids who are afraid that something terrible will happen to their parents when they’re apart may also be frightened to go to school. They might be scared to be left with a babysitter. Those are all part of the more significant fear of being away from you.
Break the fear into smaller pieces.
Tackling a fear all at once can be difficult. ____19____ Maybe your child is afraid to do schoolwork in one room while you work in another room. Agree that your child will do an hour of work away from you by the end of next week. Once you’ve set the goal, talk through the steps you’ll both take to reach it.
Cheer your child on.
____20____ When your child faces a fear, let your child know how proud you are. Give encouragement, be patient, and praise your child’s efforts and successes. By sending the message that progress matters, you’re helping your child build a growth mindset and believe in the power of the word yet.
A. You can group similar fears.
B. This doesn’t make your child less afraid.
C. Change takes time and doesn’t happen all at once.
D. Ask specific questions to help your child explain it.
E. It’s tough for some kids who learn and think differently.
F. Putting the fear into words can help reduce the child’s concern.
G. Instead, try smaller steps to reach the goal of conquering a fear.

My dad worked in construction. His day started early and ended late. All he wanted to do was crash on the couch and relax when he got home. For the most part that was what he did. No one complained; we were just happy when he was home.
But one hot and muggy summer, when my parents’ nineteenth anniversary was coming up, they made plans to go out, just the two of them. The big day finally arrived and Dad got home at seven. Mom had fed me early. She was dressed in her finest and wearing her favorite pair of high heels when he came in. He came through the kitchen and headed for the family room. It was obvious he was hot and tired.
“Honey, I just need a thirty-minute nap and then we will go out to eat,” he said as he sat down on the couch. Mom was already on her way over to the couch to give him a fresh cup of hot coffee. She bent over and kissed him on the head and said, “I’ll be ready whenever you are.”
I knew how important this evening was to my mother, but before long Dad was fast asleep. Then I watched my mother do the strangest thing. She reached into the refrigerator and took out eggs and bacon. Soon she had a batch of biscuits baking in the oven.
Before my eyes she piled a plate full of his favorite foods. As she set another fresh cup of coffee on the end table she bent down and kissed him while whispering in his ear. “It’s time to wake up.”
He sat up on the edge of the couch. As he looked up he found my mom standing in front of him with his dinner. “Honey, I promised you I would take you out to dinner and I meant it.” he said sincerely.
Mom sat down beside him on the couch as he took the plate of food. She said, “I know you would, but I also know you’ve had a hard day and you’re tired. What’s important is that we are together. We can go out any time for dinner.”
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；

My dad sat there holding the plate of dinner prepared by my mom.

Ollivier Jean-Baptiste,25, a vlogger from France living in China, delivered a speech on the latest episode of the China Daily Youth Power series. The episode, named “Timeless Tales from China”, was aired on Jan. 30.
In his speech, titled “Bridging Cultures: A Personal Journey from France to China”, Jean-Baptiste spoke about his initial impressions of China. Just like his family and friends, he saw China as a distant and mysterious place with a culture entirely different from France and other Western countries.
The idea of visiting China first came to him when his uncle, who worked in China, returned with endless praise for the Chinese lifestyle. “Everything, from the food to the scenery, was incredibly appealing to me,” he recalled.
Later, a Chinese woman introduced him personally to the everyday life of Chinese people. He learned to use WeChat, Alipay, and navigate Chinese social media, which exposed him to a different way of living. The woman later became his wife, and they moved to Beijing together in 2022, which Jean-Baptiste described as “eye-opening” for him.
“She took me to see the flag-raising ceremony. Witnessing countless young people rushing toward the flag, I was deeply moved. It’s a country of strength, unity, and love,” he said.
These experiences made Jean-Baptiste eager to explore different aspects of Chinese culture. He visited the Great Wall in Beijing and the Terracotta Army in Xi’an, Northwest China’s Shaanxi province. When he returned to France for vacation and shared photos of his travels and life in China with his family, they were also excited.
Apart from his personal experiences in China, Jean-Baptiste noticed that friendly interactions between the two countries are also increasing. After learning about the 15-day visa-free travel from France to China, his family and friends couldn’t wait to book their trip to China.
“I’m overjoyed to host them during the 60th anniversary of China-France diplomatic relations, showcasing China’s modern development and rich history,” he said. “I may be just an ordinary person with limited influence, but everyone can be a cultural ambassador.”
4. What inspired Jean-Baptiste to come to China
A. His uncle’s positive experiences. B. His family’s encouragement.
C. A Chinese woman’s introduction. D. His fascination with Chinese history.
5. How is Paragraph 6 mainly developed

C. By making comparisons. D. By providing examples.
6. What can we know from Jean-Baptiste’s words
A. He is easily moved.
B. He is impressed by Chinese people.
C. He travels around China with curiosity.
D. He tends to serve as a cultural ambassador.
7. Where can we probably read this text

How much salt is too much salt Unfortunately, it’s most likely the amount you’re consuming.
A new study published Monday in the journal JAMA found that cutting one teaspoon of salt a day results in a decline in blood pressure comparable to taking blood pressure medication.
Humans need sodium (钠), which is found in salt, for our bodies to work properly. It plays an important role in nerve and muscle function by allowing nerves to pulse with electricity and muscles to contract. But too much sodium can be bad for our health. It contributes to high blood pressure, or hypertension (高血压)which is a major cause of stroke and heart disease.
One way it does this is by making the body absorb more water. Extra sodium in the blood pulls more water into blood vessels (血管), which increases the amount of blood in the vessels. This increases blood pressure and, in some people, leads to high blood pressure and can damage vessels and even organs like the heart, kidney s and brain.
In this latest study, participants who cut out their daily salt intake by one teaspoon had lower blood pressure in just one week. This was even true for people already on blood pressure medication.
But how much sodium is in one teaspoon of salt A teaspoon of salt has about 2,300 mg of sodium in it. And according to the FDA, Americans eat an average of 3,400 mg of sodium. So cutting out a teaspoon would be equivalent to cutting two-thirds of a person’s daily sodium intake.
But the researchers say that cutting out any amount of sodium will help lower blood pressure-at least more than no reduction at all.
8. What is the function of Paragraph 1
A. To describe an interesting fact. B. To present a confusing question.
C. To introduce the topic of the text. D. To provide background information.
9. How does too much sodium harm us
A. By causing muscle disorders. B. By bringing about hypertension.
C. By directly damaging our organs. D. By absorbing the water in blood vessels.
10. What does the underlined word “equivalent” in Paragraph 6 probably mean
A. Equal. B. Relevant. C. Beneficial. D. Important.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The Recommendation on the Intake of Salt
B. The Less Sodium We Have, the Better We Are
C. Cutting One Teaspoon of Salt May Improve Health
D. The Relationship Between Salt and Blood Pressure
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. C
【解析】

( 多少盐算盐太多？不幸的是，这很可能是你摄入的量。)”以及第二段中“A new study published Monday in the journal JAMA found that cutting one teaspoon of salt a day results in a decline in blood pressure comparable to taking blood pressure medication. (周一发表在《美国医学会杂志》(JAMA)上的一项新研究发现，每天减少一茶匙盐的降压效果与服用降压药相当。)”可知，第一段通过提问引出文章介绍的主题即每天减少一茶匙盐的降压效果与服用降压药相当。故选C。

It is natural to compare ourselves to others and to get caught in a mental comparison loop, and yet this seldom is beneficial. You may have heard the expression. “Comparison is the thief of joy. “To me, this rings true as I have found it is quite difficult to compare myself to others and feel joy at the same time.
Comparison not only robs us of joy, but it can also fuel self-criticism and a lack of self-acceptance. Typically, comparison leads to perceiving others as superior to you in some way and feeling inadequate or inferior. “I am not as successful, competent, attractive as they are. “Why don’t I have what they have ” We use comparison as an avenue for self-criticism, “What’s wrong with me I must be an inadequate loser.” This hinders(阻碍)self-acceptance.
We often tell ourselves we are acceptable only if we meet certain standards, and we evaluate how we measure up by looking at others. The tendency is to conclude that we are not measuring up, particularly if we have a low sense of self-worth, and we worry that others are going to judge or criticize our perceived failures. We don’t just ask ourselves. “What’s wrong with me ” We worry what others will think: “What’s wrong with them ” The looming(迫近的)sense of possible rejection creates uneasiness and anxiety.
Comparison is deceptive(造成假象的). It tells us that if we meet the expectations, lose weight, get a promotion, or buy the house, we will feel better, calmer, more self-assured, and stop comparing ourselves. This may be temporarily true, yet, a comparison is an internal process that is ultimately based on our thoughts and sense of self, not external circumstances. We can always find something else to compare, another expectation we tell ourselves we are not meeting.
To stop comparing ourselves to others, we have to recognize that the comparison game is unwinnable and exhausting and stop playing. We should shift from being guided by comparison to being guided by personal values.
12. What is the author’s attitude towards comparison
A. Supportive. B. Tolerant. C. Negative. D. Uncertain.
13. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A The significance of comparison. B. The joy of self-acceptance.
C. The necessity of self-criticism. D. The consequences of comparison.
14. What can be inferred about comparison from Paragraph 4
A. It is rooted in our inner thoughts.
B. It makes us become better.
C. We will stop it if we achieve our goals.
D. It is a reliable measure of success.
15. What will the author talk about in the following paragraph
A. How we can change personal values.
B. Why personal values are important to us.
C. How personal values help stop comparison.
D. What impact technology has on comparison.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. C

【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“It is natural to compare ourselves to others and to get caught in a mental comparison loop, and yet this seldom is beneficial(将自己与他人比较并陷入心理比较循环是很自然的，但这很少是有益的)”可知，作者认为将自己与他人比较很少是很少有益处的，因此作者对“比较”的态度是否定的。故选C。

【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“This may be temporarily true, yet, a comparison is an internal process that is ultimately based on our thoughts and sense of self, not external circumstances.

【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“To stop comparing ourselves to others, we have to recognize that the comparison game is unwinnable and exhausting and stop playing. We should shift from being guided by comparison to being guided by personal values.( 为了不再拿自己和别人比较，我们必须认识到这种比较游戏是不可能赢的，而且会让人筋疲力尽，然后停止玩。我们应该从以比较为导向转向以个人价值观为导向。)”可知，此处强调的是为了停止与他人比较，我们需要认识到这场比较游戏是无法赢得和令人精疲力尽的，我们应该以个人价值为指导。后文应该保持话题一致，继续论述个人价值观如何帮助停止攀比。故选C。

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Fears are a normal part of childhood. Sometimes kids are afraid of imaginary things, like monsters. But often, fears are related to what’s going on in their lives. Learning to cope with fear isn’t always easy. ____16____ They may have trouble processing information and keeping emotions in check. Here are some things you can try to help your child manage fears.
Take the fear seriously.
Sometimes to help our kids, we say things like “There’s nothing to be scared of.” ____17____ Instead , it can send the message that you expect your child to “get over it.” Or that you don’t believe your child is terrified. Not taking fear seriously can make your child feel like it’s not okay to be afraid or that it’s not okay to talk to you about it.
Make a list.
Work with your child to list the things or situations that cause fear. Go over your child’s worst-case scenario(情况). ____18____ For example, kids who are afraid that something terrible will happen to their parents when they’re apart may also be frightened to go to school. They might be scared to be left with a babysitter. Those are all part of the more significant fear of being away from you.
Break the fear into smaller pieces.
Tackling a fear all at once can be difficult. ____19____ Maybe your child is afraid to do schoolwork in one room while you work in another room. Agree that your child will do an hour of work away from you by the end of next week. Once you’ve set the goal, talk through the steps you’ll both take to reach it.
Cheer your child on.
____20____ When your child faces a fear, let your child know how proud you are. Give encouragement, be patient, and praise your child’s efforts and successes. By sending the message that progress matters, you’re helping your child build a growth mindset and believe in the power of the word yet.
A. You can group similar fears.
B. This doesn’t make your child less afraid.
C. Change takes time and doesn’t happen all at once.
D. Ask specific questions to help your child explain it.
E. It’s tough for some kids who learn and think differently.
F. Putting the fear into words can help reduce the child’s concern.
G. Instead, try smaller steps to reach the goal of conquering a fear.
【答案】16. E 17. B 18. A 19. G 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。这篇文章主要讲了孩子恐惧是正常现象，但如何处理恐惧并不容易。文章给出了一些建议，如严肃对待孩子的恐惧，列出引起恐惧的事物或情况，将恐惧分解为较小的部分，并鼓励和支持孩子面对恐惧。
【16题详解】
根据前文“ Learning to cope with fear isn’t always easy. (学会应对恐惧并不总是那么容易。)”以及后文“They may have trouble processing information and keeping emotions in check. (他们可能在处理信息和控制情绪方面有困难。)”可知，此处强调对于孩子们来说学会应对恐惧并不那么容易。E选项“It’s tough for some kids who learn and think differently.(对于一些学习和思考方式不同的孩子来说，这很难。)”中的some kids与后文的they形成呼应，指出对于一些学习和思考方式不同的孩子来说学会应对恐惧是很难的，因为他们在处理信息和控制情绪方面有困难，E选项符合语境。故选E。
【17题详解】
根据本段段旨“Take the fear seriously.( 认真对待恐惧。)”以及设空处前面的内容“Sometimes to help our kids, we say things like “There’s nothing to be scared of.”(有时为了帮助我们的孩子，我们会说“没什么好害怕的。”)”可知，当孩子面临恐惧的时候，大人们经常说“没什么好害怕的”，这样做并没有认真对待孩子们的恐惧。B选项“This doesn’t make your child less afraid.( 这并不会让你的孩子不那么害怕。)”中的this指代前文的事实即大人们没有认真对待孩子恐惧，只是说“没什么好害怕的”，这样说并不会让孩子不害怕。同时根据后文“Instead , it can send the message that you expect your child to “get over it.” (相反，它会传递出你希望孩子“克服它”的信息。)”可知，这样说没有起到帮助孩子的作用，只会传递出让孩子自己克服恐惧的信息，故B选项符合语境。故选B。
【18题详解】
根据本段段旨“Make a list.(列清单)”，以及设空处前文的内容“Work with your child to list the things or situations that cause fear. Go over your child’s worst-case scenario(和你的孩子一起列出引起恐惧的事情或情况。设想孩子最坏的情况。)”以及后文内容“For example, kids who are afraid that something terrible will happen to their parents when they’re apart may also be frightened to go to school. They might be scared to be left with a babysitter. Those are all part of the more significant fear of being away from you.( 例如，当孩子与父母分开时，他们可能担心父母会发生可怕的事情，这样的孩子也可能害怕去学校。他们可能害怕留在保姆身边。这些都是对远离父母的恐惧的一部分。)”可知，此处强调通过列清单，将孩子所遇到的最坏的情况进行列举，并把类似的恐惧进行归类，如此处举例说明的内容是将孩子对远离父母的的各种行为归为一类。A选项“You can group similar fears.(你可以把类似的恐惧归类。)”引出后文举出的例子，并且与段旨呼应，描述如何通过将类似恐惧归类列清单。故选A。
【19题详解】
根据本段段旨“Break the fear into smaller pieces.(把恐惧分解成小块。)”以及设空处前文内容“Tackling a fear all at once can be difficult.( 一下子克服恐惧是很困难的。)”以及后文“Once you’ve set the goal, talk through the steps you’ll both take to reach it.( 一旦你设定了目标，讨论一下你们将采取哪些步骤来实现它。)”可知，此处强调应该把恐惧划分成小块，不能一下子解决所有的恐惧。需要设定目标，通过采取具体的步骤来克服恐惧。G选项“Instead, try smaller steps to reach the goal of conquering a fear.(相反，尝试一些小的步骤来达到征服恐惧的目标。)”与前文构成转折关系，并且引起下文，指出通过尝试一些小的步骤来达到征服恐惧的目标，符合语境。故选G。
20题详解】
根据本段段旨“Cheer your child on.(为你的孩子加油。)”以及后文“ When your child faces a fear, let your child know how proud you are. Give encouragement, be patient, and praise your child’s efforts and successes. (当你的孩子面对恐惧时，让你的孩子知道你是多么的骄傲, 给予鼓励，要有耐心，并表扬孩子的努力和成功。)”可知，此处强调当孩子面临恐惧时，让孩子知道自己对孩子是多么骄傲的，有耐心的对待，表扬和鼓励孩子。C选项“Change takes time and doesn’t happen all at once.(改变需要时间，也不是一蹴而就的。)”引起下文，指出孩子的改变不是一蹴而就的，是需要时间的，因此需要大人们耐心，C选项符合语境。故选C。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My dad worked in construction. His day started early and ended late. All he wanted to do was crash on the couch and relax when he got home. For the most part that was what he did. No one complained; we were just happy when he was home.
But one hot and muggy summer, when my parents’ nineteenth anniversary was coming up, they made plans to go out, just the two of them. The big day finally arrived and Dad got home at seven. Mom had fed me early. She was dressed in her finest and wearing her favorite pair of high heels when he came in. He came through the kitchen and headed for the family room. It was obvious he was hot and tired.
“Honey, I just need a thirty-minute nap and then we will go out to eat,” he said as he sat down on the couch. Mom was already on her way over to the couch to give him a fresh cup of hot coffee. She bent over and kissed him on the head and said, “I’ll be ready whenever you are.”
I knew how important this evening was to my mother, but before long Dad was fast asleep. Then I watched my mother do the strangest thing. She reached into the refrigerator and took out eggs and bacon. Soon she had a batch of biscuits baking in the oven.
Before my eyes she piled a plate full of his favorite foods. As she set another fresh cup of coffee on the end table she bent down and kissed him while whispering in his ear. “It’s time to wake up.”
He sat up on the edge of the couch. As he looked up he found my mom standing in front of him with his dinner. “Honey, I promised you I would take you out to dinner and I meant it.” he said sincerely.
Mom sat down beside him on the couch as he took the plate of food. She said, “I know you would, but I also know you’ve had a hard day and you’re tired. What’s important is that we are together. We can go out any time for dinner.”

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
My dad sat there, holding the plate of dinner prepared by my mom. He looked at her, his eyes filled with gratitude and love. “Thank you, sweetheart,” he said, his voice choked with emotion. “I don't know how I got so lucky to have you.” Mom smiled and gently brushed his hair away from his forehead. “You deserve it, honey. You work so hard for our family, and I wanted to do something special for our anniversary.” Despite the fact that they were not dining in a fancy restaurant, the atmosphere at home felt incredibly warm and intimate.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang and I knew my special package for them came. Inside the special package was a photo album, filled with memories captured throughout their nineteen years of marriage. Each photograph was carefully selected to remind them of the love and happiness they shared, which was a testament to the enduring bond they had built. Excitement filled the room, at that moment, my parents realized that the true essence of their anniversary celebration was not about going out for dinner or receiving extravagant gifts. It was about appreciating each other's presence, cherishing the love that held their family together, and creating lasting memories.
