Josie and I wanted a dog more than anything else on the earth. We wished for one every time we threw coins in a fountain or watched the evening star drop behind the trees. However, our mother believed that we were still too thoughtless to take on the task of raising a pet. She had witnessed our forgetfulness on household chores and getting into small conflicts. In her eyes, these were signs that we lacked the necessary responsibility.
One summer night, as we sat together on the roof, Josie saw something. She pointed down toward a dark shadow, “What’s that ”
For one astonishing second, Josie and I stared at each other. Then we rushed down onto the doorway. There in our yard stood a black dog. Josie made a little kissing noise and held out her hand. The dog came to us slowly, taking a few steps forward, then a step back, not sure whether to trust us. She was so skinny that I could just feel every bone, and her coat was messy.
“We’re going to have a dog!” My inside was full of excitement, just like before Christmas or our birthday.
“What’s a good name ” said Josie.
The perfect name wrote itself in my mind, “Shadow!”
The next day, we piled together all the pocket money we had to buy all kinds of dog foods and hid it in various places because we were afraid Mom wouldn’t approve that if she knew we were feeding a homeless dog.
That night, after our parents were asleep, we silently slipped downstairs to feed Shadow. We carefully poured the dog food into the bowl, trying to make as little noise as possible. Shadow, who had been waiting eagerly by our side, wagged (摇晃) her tail. As we placed the bowl on the floor, a creaking (吱吱的) sound filled the house. Suddenly, the kitchen light was switched on, illuminating the room and revealing our shocked faces.

主旨升华句(英文)
Responsibility is not just a word; it's the key to winning trust and achieving our dreams.
Through taking care of Shadow, we learned that with responsibility comes the joy of nurturing and the reward of love.
Our journey with Shadow taught us that every small effort towards responsibility can lead to great changes in our lives.
The love for Shadow not only made us strive for responsibility but also deepened the bond between us and our family.
In the process of proving ourselves responsible dog owners, we grew up and understood the true meaning of commitment.
写作示范一
It was our mother, standing there surprisingly. Her eyebrows knitted together, and her voice was firm as she asked, "What are you two doing " Josie and I exchanged nervous glances, our hands shaking slightly. I stammered out an explanation, telling her how much we loved Shadow and how we just wanted to take care of her. Mom listened quietly, her expression softening a bit.
Mom decided to give us a chance to prove we could be responsible owners. We immediately made a detailed schedule. Every morning, we took turns to walk Shadow, and after school, we would groom her carefully. We also read books about dog care to learn how to keep her healthy. Slowly but surely, Shadow grew stronger and more energetic. Mom watched our efforts with a smile, and we knew that our hard work had paid off.
写作示范二
It was our mother, standing there surprisingly. Her eyes widened in shock, and for a moment, the kitchen was filled with an awkward silence. Josie's face turned red, and I lowered my head, waiting for her scolding. But instead of getting angry, Mom asked gently why we had hidden this from her. We poured out our hearts, expressing our deep love for Shadow.
Mom decided to give us a chance to prove we could be responsible owners. We were overjoyed and determined to do well. We set up a small corner for Shadow, complete with a soft bed and toys. We started saving more money to buy better dog food and even took her to the vet for regular check - ups. As time passed, Shadow became an important part of our family, and Mom's approval made our efforts all the more worthwhile.
【答案】
It was our mother, standing there surprisingly. Her eyes widened as she saw the scene before her. For a moment, there was silence, only with the creaking sound still lingering in the air. Stammering, we tried to explain to her. We told her about how we found Shadow and our longing for a dog, hoping that somehow our mother would understand it. After a long pause, she finally spoke, “I can see how much you both care for Shadow, and maybe it’s time for us to give her a home.”
Mom decided to give us a chance to prove we could be responsible owners. From that day on, we poured our hearts into taking care of Shadow. We woke up early every morning to take her for walks and diligently cleaned up after her. Gradually, Shadow transformed before our eyes. Her coat became shiny and healthy, and she gained weight. She followed us everywhere like a second shadow. Not only had we achieved our dream of having a dog, we had also earned our mother’s trust and respect.
