Mother's Gift
I grew up in a small town where the primary school was a ten-minute walk from my house. When the noon bell rang, I would race breathlessly home. My mother would be standing at the top of the stairs, smiling down at me.
One lunchtime when I was in the third grade would always stay with me. I had been picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had rehearsed my lines so hard with me. But no matter how easily I acted at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator's(旁白员) part for the play, and asked me to change roles. Her words, kindly expressed, still hurt me, 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 pain. Instead of suggesting we practise my lines, she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard.
It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine was turning green. Under the huge trees, we could see yellow dandelions(蒲公英) on the grass in clusters, as if a painter had touched our landscape with a bit of gold. I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion. “I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, pulling it up by the 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 thoughtfully. 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.” Knowing that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry as I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled reassuringly(安慰地).
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,”she said,
After the play,I took home the dandelion.

连句成篇
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,”she said,encouraging and comforting me as she always did. “The narrator's part is equally important,” my mother added, wearing a shining smile on her soft face. I began to accept that the narrator was of vital significance and rehearsed even harder. Time had flown by and it reached the performance day. Before going on stage I still felt nervous, but it was at that very moment that I found a dandelion put into my pocket by my mother to keep me company. The play turned out to be a great success.
After the play,I took home the dandelion. Mom carefully gazed at the dandelion, gently placed it into a dictionary and smiled as usual. We were perhaps the only people who would keep such a sorry-looking weed. Though decades have passed, I constantly recall the precious lunchtime we were together, grateful for the smiles on my mother's face and her kindness.
