Kwan’s Secret Talent
“Kwan, isn’t that your art teacher ” his grandmother said, pointing at a woman walking out of the grocery store.
Kwan waved, and Mrs. Gibbs walked over to him and his grandmother. “It’s very nice to see you,” Mrs. Gibbs said. Then she saw the cloths wrapped around the groceries Kwan and his grandmother were loading into their car. “Oh, how beautiful!” she exclaimed.
“Thank you. These are our hometown wrapping cloths,” grandmother explained. “Kwan and I embroidered(刺绣)them together.”
Kwan looked away. Although he enjoyed helping grandmother make the cloths, he didn’t want anyone at school to know about it.
Kwan, you should bring your cloths to school tomorrow. Your classmates would enjoy seeing them. You have a unique skill,” Mrs. Gibbs said.
Kwan appreciated his teacher’s comments, but he was hesitant. The kids might laugh at the idea of a boy who liked to stitch(缝) patterns with a needle and thread. He thought about his grandmother’s wide smile that showed how proud of him she would be for sharing this custom.
“OK. I’ll bring some to class tomorrow,” Kwan replied quietly.
Grandma sensed that something was wrong. “Kwan, are you worried about tomorrow ” she asked.
Kwan stared at the floor. “What are the other kids going to think ” he said. “This isn’t the kind of thing they do for fun. Creating embroidered patterns isn’t like playing an instrument or a sport.”
“You’re right,” Grandma said. “It is different. But that is why it is so special.” Then she brought out a fine cloth with different designs. “When your grandfather and I were married, we received a gift from his mother wrapped in this cloth she made. In our culture, gifts given in wrapping cloths are extra special because they are a symbol of love and good luck.” she explained.

What did they talk
在艺术课上,他的心狂跳起来,一阵期待和紧张涌遍全身并当Mrs. Gibbs叫到他的名字时,达到了顶点。(现在分词,时间状语)
Kwan深吸了一口气,走到前面,然后展开衣服,其华丽的图案立刻引起了大家的注意。在他们凝视的鼓舞下,Kwan开始解释这些图案背后的文化意义,之前的担心逐渐被想分享他心爱艺术的渴望所取代。 (动作链,现在分词,定语从句,过去分词,情绪转换)
令他大为惊讶的是,在演讲结束后,他收到了很多疑问。“这一定是花了很大的努力!”一个学生大声喊道。另一个人补充说:“你真的很有天赋!Kwan.”(介词短语,现在分词)
During art class, his heart raced, a sense of anticipation and nervousness surging over him and reaching its climax when his name was called out by Mrs. Gibbs.
Kwan took a deep breath and walked to the front before unfolding the cloths, whose gorgeous patterns immediately caught everyone’s attention. Encouraged by their gaze, Kwan began to explain the cultural meaning behind the patterns, his previous concern gradually giving way to eagerness to share his beloved art.
Much to his surprise, after the presentation, he was greeted with a lot of curious questions. “This must have taken mountains of efforts to make!” one student exclaimed, another adding, “You really have a talent! Kwan.”

在这一神奇时刻,Kwan意识到,分享他的技艺并不是一件让人羞愧的事情,而是一种与他人联系、分享他的文化中有意义的一部分的方式。(时间状语,“不是 ...而是”)
His initial unease vanished as their sincere compliments and inquiries came flooding him.
With Kwan guiding them how to stitch and fold the cloths, the classroom was turned into a workshop enveloped with waves of laughter. Meanwhile, Mrs. Gibbs cast an approving smile on Kwan, delighted to see he was immersed in his “teaching job” whole-heartedly.
At such a magic moment, Kwan realized that sharing his craft wasn’t something to be ashamed about but was a way to connect with others and to share a meaningful part oaf his culture.
