美篇呈现
My Mother's Gift
Suzanne Chazin
I grew up in a small town where the elementary school was a ten-minute walk from my house and in an age,not so long ago,when children could go home for lunch and find their mothers waiting.
At the time,I did not consider this a luxury①,although today it certainly would be. I took it for granted② that mothers were the sandwich-makers,the finger-painting appreciators and the homework monitors. I never questioned that this ambitious,intelligent woman,who had had a career before I was born and would eventually return to a career,would spend almost every lunch hour throughout my elementary school years just with me.
I only knew that when the noon bell rang,I would race breathlessly③ home. My mother would be standing at the top of the stairs,smiling down at me with a look that suggested I was the only important thing she had on her mind. For this,I am forever grateful.
Some sounds bring it all back:the high-pitched squeal of my mother's teakettle,the rumble of the washing machine in the basement, and the jangle of my dog's license tags as she bounded down the stairs to greet me. Our time together seemed devoid of the gerrymandered schedules that now pervade my life.
One lunchtime when I was in the third grade will stay with me always. I had been picked to be the princess in the school play,and for weeks my mother had painstakingly④ rehearsed⑤ my lines with me. But no matter how easily I delivered them at home,as soon as I stepped on stage,every word disappeared from my head.
Finally,my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator's part to the play,and asked me to switch roles. Her words, kindly delivered, still stung, especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn't tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed my unease⑥,and instead of suggesting we practice my lines,she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard.
It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine on the trellis was turning green. Under the huge elm trees,we could see yellow dandelions popping through the grass in bunches,as if a painter had touched our landscape with dabs of gold.
I watched my mother casually bend down by one of the clumps,“I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds,”she said,yanking a blossom,up by it's roots.“From now on,we'll have only roses in this garden.”
“But I like dandelions,”I protested.“All flowers are beautiful—even dandelions.”
My mother looked at me seriously.“Yes,every flower gives pleasure in its own way,doesn't it?”she asked thoughtfully⑦.I nodded,pleased that I had won her over.“And that is true of people too,”she added.“Not everyone can be a princess,but there is no shame in that.”
Relieved that she had guessed my pain,I started to cry as I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled reassuringly⑧.
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,”she said,reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.“The narrator's part is every bit as important as the part of the princess.”
Over the next few weeks,with her constant encouragement,I learned to take pride in the role. Lunchtimes were spent reading over my lines and talking about what I would wear.
Backstage the night of the performance,I felt nervous. A few minutes before the play,my teacher came over to me.“Your mother asked me to give this to you,” she said,handing me a dandelion. Its edges were already beginning to curl and it flopped lazily from its stem. But just looking at it,knowing my mother was out there and thinking of our lunchtime talk,made me proud.
After the play,I took home the flower I had stuffed in the apron(围裙) of my costume. My mother pressed it between two sheets of paper toweling in a dictionary,laughing as she did it that we were perhaps the only people who would press such a sorry-looking weed.
母亲的礼物
苏珊妮·蔡津
我是在一个小镇上长大的,从镇上的小学到我家只需要步行十分钟。在距今不算太久远的那个时代,小学生可以回家吃午饭,而他们的母亲则会在家等候着。
这一切对如今的孩子来说,无疑是一种奢望,可是那时的我,却并不以为然。我觉得母亲给孩子做三明治、鉴赏手指画和检查家庭作业都是理所当然的事。我从来没有想过:我母亲既有抱负,又很聪明。在我出生之前,她有份工作,而且最终她也会重返职场。可是,在我上小学那几年,她几乎天天陪着我吃午饭,一同打发午餐时的每一分钟。
我只知道中午放学铃声一响,我就一口气跑回家。母亲总是站在最高的那级台阶上,笑盈盈地望着我——那神情分明表示:我便是母亲心目中唯一最重要的人。为此,我一辈子都对母亲感激不尽。
如今,每当我听到一些声音,像母亲那把茶壶发出的尖叫声、地下室洗衣机的隆隆声,还有我那条狗蹦下台阶对我摇头摆尾时,脖子上那牌照发出的撞击声,都勾起我对往事的回忆。和母亲在一起的岁月,全然没有现在充斥于我的生活中的、事先排定的日程表。
我永远忘不了在我上三年级时的那顿午饭。原本我被学校选中,要在一个小剧中扮演公主的角色。一连好几个礼拜,母亲总是不辞辛劳地陪着我,一起背诵台词。可是,不管在家里背得再怎么滚瓜烂熟,只要一上舞台,我的脑子里就一片空白。
最终,老师把我叫到了一边。她说剧中旁白员这个角色的台词已写好了,让我换个角色,去当旁白员。尽管老师这些话说得和和气气,可是还是刺痛了我的心,特别是当我发觉自己扮演的公主角色让另一个女孩顶替时,更是如此。
那天回家吃午饭时,我没有把这事告诉母亲。然而,母亲察觉到我心神不定。因此,母亲没有再提练习背台词的事儿,而是问我愿不愿意到院子里散散步。
那真是一个美好的春日,棚架上蔷薇的藤蔓正在转青。在一些高大的榆树下,我们看到,一丛丛黄色的蒲公英冒出草坪,仿佛是一位画家给眼前的美景加上的点点金色。
我看到母亲在一簇花丛旁漫不经心地弯下腰来。“我看得把这些野草都拔了,”她说着,一边使劲把一丛蒲公英连根拔起,“往后咱这园子里只让长蔷薇花。”
“可是我喜欢蒲公英,”我不满地说,“凡是花都好看——蒲公英也不例外。”
母亲严肃地看着我。“噢,这么说每朵花都自有它赏心悦目的地方喽?”她若有所思地问道。我点了点头,总算说服了母亲,这使我很得意。“那么人也一样呀!”母亲接着又发话,“不见得人人都能当公主,但当不了公主并不丢脸。”
母亲猜到了我的苦恼,这使我如释重负。我哭了起来,把事情的经过讲给母亲听。母亲专注地听着,脸上带着安详的微笑。
“但你会成为一名很好的旁白员,”母亲又说。她说平常我是多么喜欢朗诵故事给她听,还说:“不管从哪方面看,旁白员这个角色都和公主的角色一样重要。”
接下来的几个星期,在母亲不断的鼓励下,我渐渐地为担任旁白员的角色感到骄傲。利用午饭的时间,我们又一起念台词,谈论到时我该穿什么样的演出服装。
演出的那个晚上,我在后台,心里格外紧张。离演出只差几分钟了,老师朝我走了过来。“你母亲让我把这个交给你,”说着她递过来一朵蒲公英。那花儿四周已开始卷曲,花瓣儿从梗上有气无力地耷拉着。可是,只要看一眼,知道母亲就在外面等着,回想起和母亲在午餐时说的那些话,我就感到骄傲。
演出结束后,我把塞在演出服围裙里的那朵蒲公英带回了家。母亲用两张纸巾将花压平,夹在一本字典里。她一边忙碌一边笑着,也许只有我们俩会珍藏这么一朵不起眼的野花吧。

Now, the development of science and technology has brought great changes in people's ways of communication. Besides letters and telegraph, we have other ways of communication, such as email, mobile phone, fax, as well as the Internet. To people's joy, the computer and mobile phone which used to be rather expensive are now so cheap that mobile phone has become a must for people. What's more, the fees of communication has greatly gone down.

美篇呈现
My Mother's Gift
Suzanne Chazin
I grew up in a small town where the elementary school was a ten-minute walk from my house and in an age,not so long ago,when children could go home for lunch and find their mothers waiting.
At the time,I did not consider this a luxury①,although today it certainly would be. I took it for granted② that mothers were the sandwich-makers,the finger-painting appreciators and the homework monitors. I never questioned that this ambitious,intelligent woman,who had had a career before I was born and would eventually return to a career,would spend almost every lunch hour throughout my elementary school years just with me.
I only knew that when the noon bell rang,I would race breathlessly③ home. My mother would be standing at the top of the stairs,smiling down at me with a look that suggested I was the only important thing she had on her mind. For this,I am forever grateful.
Some sounds bring it all back:the high-pitched squeal of my mother's teakettle,the rumble of the washing machine in the basement, and the jangle of my dog's license tags as she bounded down the stairs to greet me. Our time together seemed devoid of the gerrymandered schedules that now pervade my life.
One lunchtime when I was in the third grade will stay with me always. I had been picked to be the princess in the school play,and for weeks my mother had painstakingly④ rehearsed⑤ my lines with me. But no matter how easily I delivered them at home,as soon as I stepped on stage,every word disappeared from my head.
Finally,my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator's part to the play,and asked me to switch roles. Her words, kindly delivered, still stung, especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn't tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed my unease⑥,and instead of suggesting we practice my lines,she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard.
It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine on the trellis was turning green.Under the huge elm trees,we could see yellow dandelions popping through the grass in bunches,as if a painter had touched our landscape with dabs of gold.
I watched my mother casually bend down by one of the clumps,“I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds,”she said,yanking a blossom,up by it's roots.“From now on,we'll have only roses in this garden.”
“But I like dandelions,”I protested.“All flowers are beautiful—even dandelions.”
My mother looked at me seriously.“Yes,every flower gives pleasure in its own way,doesn't it ”she asked thoughtfully⑦.I nodded,pleased that I had won her over.“And that is true of people too,”she added.“Not everyone can be a princess,but there is no shame in that.”
Relieved that she had guessed my pain,I started to cry as I told her what had happened.She listened and smiled reassuringly⑧.
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,”she said,reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.“The narrator's part is every bit as important as the part of the princess.”
Over the next few weeks,with her constant encouragement,I learned to take pride in the role.Lunchtimes were spent reading over my lines and talking about what I would wear.
Backstage the night of the performance,I felt nervous.A few minutes before the play,my teacher came over to me.“Your mother asked me to give this to you,” she said,handing me a dandelion.Its edges were already beginning to curl and it flopped lazily from its stem. But just looking at it,knowing my mother was out there and thinking of our lunchtime talk,made me proud.
After the play,I took home the flower I had stuffed in the apron(围裙) of my costume. My mother pressed it between two sheets of paper toweling in a dictionary,laughing as she did it that we were perhaps the only people who would press such a sorry-looking weed.
母亲的礼物
苏珊妮·蔡津
我是在一个小镇上长大的,从镇上的小学到我家只需要步行十分钟。在距今不算太久远的那个时代,小学生可以回家吃午饭,而他们的母亲则会在家等候着。
这一切对如今的孩子来说,无疑是一种奢望,可是那时的我,却并不以为然。我觉得母亲给孩子做三明治、鉴赏手指画和检查家庭作业都是理所当然的事。我从来没有想过:我母亲既有抱负,又很聪明。在我出生之前,她有份工作,而且最终她也会重返职场。可是,在我上小学那几年,她几乎天天陪着我吃午饭,一同打发午餐时的每一分钟。
我只知道中午放学铃声一响,我就一口气跑回家。母亲总是站在最高的那级台阶上,笑盈盈地望着我——那神情分明表示:我便是母亲心目中唯一最重要的人。为此,我一辈子都对母亲感激不尽。
如今,每当我听到一些声音,像母亲那把茶壶发出的尖叫声、地下室洗衣机的隆隆声,还有我那条狗蹦下台阶对我摇头摆尾时,脖子上那牌照发出的撞击声,都勾起我对往事的回忆。和母亲在一起的岁月,全然没有现在充斥于我的生活中的、事先排定的日程表。
我永远忘不了在我上三年级时的那顿午饭。原本我被学校选中,要在一个小剧中扮演公主的角色。一连好几个礼拜,母亲总是不辞辛劳地陪着我,一起背诵台词。可是,不管在家里背得再怎么滚瓜烂熟,只要一上舞台,我的脑子里就一片空白。
最终,老师把我叫到了一边。她说剧中旁白员这个角色的台词已写好了,让我换个角色,去当旁白员。尽管老师这些话说得和和气气,可是还是刺痛了我的心,特别是当我发觉自己扮演的公主角色让另一个女孩顶替时,更是如此。
那天回家吃午饭时,我没有把这事告诉母亲。然而,母亲察觉到我心神不定。因此,母亲没有再提练习背台词的事儿,而是问我愿不愿意到院子里散散步。
那真是一个美好的春日,棚架上蔷薇的藤蔓正在转青。在一些高大的榆树下,我们看到,一丛丛黄色的蒲公英冒出草坪,仿佛是一位画家给眼前的美景加上的点点金色。
我看到母亲在一簇花丛旁漫不经心地弯下腰来。“我看得把这些野草都拔了,”她说着,一边使劲把一丛蒲公英连根拔起,“往后咱这园子里只让长蔷薇花。”
“可是我喜欢蒲公英,”我不满地说,“凡是花都好看——蒲公英也不例外。”
母亲严肃地看着我。“噢,这么说每朵花都自有它赏心悦目的地方喽 ”她若有所思地问道。我点了点头,总算说服了母亲,这使我很得意。“那么人也一样呀!”母亲接着又发话,“不见得人人都能当公主,但当不了公主并不丢脸。”
母亲猜到了我的苦恼,这使我如释重负。我哭了起来,把事情的经过讲给母亲听。母亲专注地听着,脸上带着安详的微笑。
“但你会成为一名很好的旁白员,”母亲又说。她说平常我是多么喜欢朗诵故事给她听,还说:“不管从哪方面看,旁白员这个角色都和公主的角色一样重要。”
接下来的几个星期,在母亲不断的鼓励下,我渐渐地为担任旁白员的角色感到骄傲。利用午饭的时间,我们又一起念台词,谈论到时我该穿什么样的演出服装。
演出的那个晚上,我在后台,心里格外紧张。离演出只差几分钟了,老师朝我走了过来。“你母亲让我把这个交给你,”说着她递过来一朵蒲公英。那花儿四周已开始卷曲,花瓣儿从梗上有气无力地耷拉着。可是,只要看一眼,知道母亲就在外面等着,回想起和母亲在午餐时说的那些话,我就感到骄傲。
演出结束后,我把塞在演出服围裙里的那朵蒲公英带回了家。母亲用两张纸巾将花压平,夹在一本字典里。她一边忙碌一边笑着,也许只有我们俩会珍藏这么一朵不起眼的野花吧。
