Period Ⅰ Starting out & Understanding ideas
课前自学导引
有其父，必有其子
(客厅。星期五晚上。前面中间有一张桌子和两把椅子。祖父和父亲，坐在桌旁下棋。)
祖父：那么……我赢了！
(儿子进来了)
父亲：不会吧！哦，看，我的孩子来了。儿子，你好吗？
儿子：(紧张地靠近桌子)呃……爸爸，我们能谈谈吗？
父亲：当然！你知道你总是可以找你爸爸聊天。
儿子：好的。事情是这样。我已经决定不上大学了。我想专注于我的乐队，毕业后从事音乐事业。
父亲：(惊讶地提高了他的嗓门)你不是开玩笑吧！你未来不是要以律师为职业吗？！
儿子：我就知道你会这么说。你以为我想当律师，但那只是因为你是律师。
父亲：当律师有什么不好？律师能帮助他人，而且受人敬重。
儿子：是的，但是我对法律不感兴趣。我想在录音室工作，而不是法院。
祖父：(看着父亲)冷静一下，好吗？
父亲：(没有理会祖父的话)别做白日梦了！在乐队表演不是一份工作。
儿子：当然是！现在音乐产业正在迅速发展。创作音乐是一项工作。
祖父：(走到父子之间，提高嗓门)嘿！我叫你们冷静下来，你们两个！
父亲：但是我告诉过他在大学里学习一些有用的东西！
祖父：(笑着)别急，儿子！我记得你在他这个年纪的时候，你说过你想成为一名职业足球运动员。
父亲：你想(让我)成为一名工程师！
祖父：我只是想让你快乐，一个工程师，一个快乐的工程师。
父亲：但最后，你只是建议我要仔细考虑。
祖父：是的，你已经找到了适合你才能的工作。我真为你骄傲。你儿子也为你感到骄傲。
儿子：我当然为你骄傲，但是我有不同的天赋。
祖父：(转向儿子)你为什么不接受我的建议，在全身心投入之前仔细考虑一下呢？
儿子：好吧，我可以试试……
祖父：如果你在上大学的同时演奏音乐，你的未来将有两个选择。并且我相信在乐队里演奏会帮助你在大学里交到很多新朋友。
父亲：是的。很多新的律师朋友！
儿子：(叹了口气)爸爸……

So watering it once or twice, he never 7 it.

篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一个认为自己天生不幸的小男孩，经过一次种树的经历，受到父亲的鼓励和帮助而变得自信，后来成为美国总统的故事。本文旨在告诉读者，爱是滋润孩子心灵的最好的养料。
1．A.ever B．seldom
C．still D．often
答案：B 根据上文“the boy thought of himself as the most unfortunate child in the world”可知，小男孩认为自己不幸运，同时结合该段最后一句中的描述，由被提问时他的表现“without a word”可推测他很少(seldom)和同学玩。
2．A.held B．raised
C．lowered D．covered
答案：C 由前文可知，小男孩认为自己很不幸，感到自卑，因此与之相符的是低头(lowered)逃避回答问题。lower one's head意为“低下头”。
3．A.Both B．None
C．One D．Each
答案：D 根据下文“saw his brothers and sisters watering the trees”可知应有至少三个以上的孩子，因此父亲让每个(Each)孩子种一棵树。

C．grows D．watches
答案：C 父亲承诺树种得(grow)最好的人可以获得奖品。
5．A.And B．So
C．Or D．But

答案：C 他突然有了一个想法。an idea (sth.) occurs to sb. 意为“某人突然想到某事”。

答案：B 所以给它浇一两次水，他从来没有照顾过(attended to)这颗树苗。
8．A.surprised B．frightened
C．disappointed D．amused

9．A.roots B．leaves
C．branches D．seeds
答案：B 根据空前“so many”和空后“his appeared greener”可知，男孩的树有很多新鲜的树叶(leaves)。
10．A.word B．balance

答案：D 根据倒数第二段中“The boy didn't become a botanist.”可知，父亲说小男孩会成为植物学家(botanist)。

15．A.doubted B．understood
C．wondered D．admitted
答案：B 看到眼前的景象，小男孩立刻明白了(understood), 是父亲在暗中帮助他给树浇水。
16．A.cutting B．decorating
C．watering D．pulling
答案：C 根据第二段最后一句“So watering it once or twice, he never 7 it.”可知，小男孩几乎不给树浇水，因此可以推断出是他的父亲悄悄地给男孩的树浇水(watering)。
17．A.Therefore B．Besides
C．Moreover D．Instead
答案：D 根据设空前一句“The boy didn't become a botanist.”和下一句“he became the US 18 ”可知，本空前后句为转折关系，故选Instead (相反)。
18．A.lawyer B．doctor
C．president D．teacher
答案：C 根据空格后“His name was Franklin Roosevelt.”可知，男孩的名字是富兰克林·罗斯福。因此可以推断出，他成了美国总统(president)。
19．A.Love B．Water
C．Disability D．Father
答案：A 小男孩和小树的共同点是都得到了关爱，因此爱(Love)是生命最好的滋养品。
20．A.So long as B．If only

They were a happy family: four daughters all in the same school in different grades. The youngest, Janice, who was in my class, seemed to be glued (粘) to her mother's skirts. The three older girls took the bus to school every morning, but Janice was always driven to school by her mother.
One Friday, Janice's mother asked for a talk with me. She said in a soft voice, “My husband is going to Europe on business for two weeks, and he insists that I go with him. I have tried to explain over and over that Janice needs me here. But he thinks that she will be fine without me so I have no choice; I have to go. I have told the babysitter to drive her every morning. Will you please give Janice special attention and help her? I want to be sure everything goes well for her.”
I told her that we would make every effort to support Janice. I even volunteered to meet Janice at her car so she would see a familiar face. As a mother myself, I'd like to help. Janice's mother thanked me for our understanding.
On Monday morning, expecting a tearful, anxious child, I planned a special program of fun and games. I waited outside to greet Janice, but just then the bus arrived and not three, but four girls got off. Janice skipped along joyfully, saying “goodbye” to her sisters as she ran with two friends into the classroom. I walked slowly into the classroom and called Janice over to ask how the bus ride went. Impatiently she said, “Oh, I always want to take the bus with the other kids, but Mother needs to be with me. You see there won't be any more babies, so I have to be a baby a little longer. While she is away, I'll just ride the bus every day. I am five, you know.\”
篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一个幸福的家庭：四个女儿都在同一所学校不同年级，三个大一点的女孩每天早上乘公共汽车上学，但最小的Janice总是由她妈妈开车送去学校。最后作者明白了，不是孩子离不开妈妈，而是妈妈想要孩子多陪陪她。

A．To ask her to help Janice with her homework.
B．To ask her to pick up Janice every day.
C．To ask her to give Janice more attention.

2．What did the author not do for Janice?
A．Plan a special program of fun and games.
B．Wait for her outside the school.
C．Greet her when she got off the bus.
D．Ask about her bus ride.
答案：C 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“I planned a special program of fun and games”可知，作者计划了一个特别有趣的节目和一些游戏；根据第四段中的“I waited outside to greet Janice”可知，作者在校门外等着Janice；根据第四段中的“I walked slowly into the classroom and called Janice over to ask how the bus ride went.”可知，作者询问Janice乘公共汽车的情况。四个选项中，只有C项文中没有提及。
3．What did Janice look like on Monday morning?
A．She was tearful and anxious.
B．She was worried about her mother.
C．She missed her mother very much.
D．She was happy rather than sad.
答案：D 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Janice skipped along joyfully ... into the classroom.”可知，Janice星期一早上看起来高兴而不是悲伤。文中joyfully为关键词。
4．What do we know from the passage?
A．Janice is too young to go to school by bus.
B．Janice likes taking the bus to school.
C．Janice doesn't like her babysitter.

As the world around them is changing, teenagers continue to need guidance and support from both parents. Studies show that teens who have an active relationship with their fathers are less likely to involve (牵涉) themselves in dangerous behaviors and more likely to succeed in school and develop higher self?worth, because their fathers go beyond social expectations to devote attention to them.
Peer (同龄人) pressure has always been a big part of the teens' experience. Even the best father can't completely protect their kids from the growing influence of their peer group. However, studies show that teenagers whose fathers focus on their lives are more likely to resist (抵抗) the more bad effects of peer pressure, taking drugs, for example.
Teens may not like to admit it, but they are wat－ching their parents closely and often follow their example. An interesting finding explains just how important parents are, especially Dad. Swiss researchers discovered that if Dad attends church, even though Mom doesn't, 44 percent of the kids are still more likely to keep going to church as adults. But if Mom goes regularly and Dad never shows up, only 2 percent of the kids continue to attend.
Teenagers face a lot of difficult choices, especially in their later teens. Fathers don't get to make those choices for them, but they can be influenced. For example, teenagers can learn a lot from their parents' concern on what to do when they finish high school. Should they go directly to college and, if so, where? Should they consider going to trade schools, joining the army or looking for a job? A father's guidance brings a long?term perspective that teens often lack to these important decisions.
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了父亲在孩子成长过程中影响很大，能减小孩子做危险事情的几率，在学校更容易成功和发展更高的自我价值。
5．Teenagers without fathers' focus are more likely to .
A．have higher self?worth
B．experience some dangerous things
C．become the best students in school
D．resist all bad effects of peer pressure
答案：B 推理判断题。本题需要注意题干中的without fathers' focus。根据第一段中的“Studies show that teens who ... develop higher self?worth”可知，研究表明，与父亲关系积极的青少年不太可能参与危险行为，他们更有可能在学校取得成功，并发展出更高的自我价值。则在父爱缺失的情况下，推断会出现与所述相反的情形，故B项符合题意。
6．What does the third paragraph tell us?
A．More teenagers pay no attention to their parents.
B．Teenagers often treat their fathers as role models.
C．Teenagers never attend church with their mothers.
D．Fewer teenagers like to attend church with their fathers.
答案：B 推理判断题。根据第三段中“they are watching ... especially Dad”和后面的例子可知，孩子的行为受家长影响，尤其是父亲的影响大。故可以推断出，他们经常会效仿父亲的行为，以父亲为榜样。
7．Which can replace the underlined word “perspective” in the last paragraph?
A．Point of view. B．Job.
C．School. D．Lots of concern.
答案：A 词义猜测题。此处指父亲的指导会给孩子带来对这些重要决定的一个长期的看法，这些是孩子们往往缺乏的。根据画线词上文“Should they go directly ... for a job？”及本句中“to these important decisions”可知，画线词perspective指“观点”，与point of view同义。
8．What can we learn from the text?
A．Fathers should make choices for teenagers directly.
B．Teenagers care less about what their parents do.
C．Mothers have no effect on their children's life.
D．Teenagers are greatly influenced by their fathers.
答案：D 推理判断题。文章通过例子讲述了父亲在孩子成长过程中影响很大，能减小孩子做危险事情的几率，在学校更容易成功和发展更高的自我价值，孩子会效仿父亲的行为，父亲的观点会有长期的影响。

Dear Sir or Madam，
I'm writing to express my attitude towards the topic “Whether teenagers' secrets should be kept from their parents”．
As a teenager, I don't see anything wrong in keeping secrets to ourselves. Keeping our secrets from our parents can provide us with a chance to experience the world on our own, which will surely exert a positive effect on our future development.
As for me, I do have my little secrets and rarely share them with my family. My parents are very understanding. They say they are glad that I'm beginning to have my own world. Instead of building a generation gap, this makes us feel even closer to each other.
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua

一般过去时与现在完成时的区别

时间状 语不同 一般过去时常与表示过去的时间状语连用，如：yesterday, two days ago, last year等。现在完成时往往不与表示过去的时间状语连用，而是多与before, already, ever, never, ever since, since, for＋时间段等连用。

课后课时作业
An 80?year?old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45?year?old son. Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) landed on their window.
The father asked his son, “What is that？”
The son replied, “That is a crow.”
After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this？”
The son said, “Father, I told you just now. It's a crow.”
After a little while, the father asked his son the same question for the third time, “What is this？”
This time, the son said to his father in a low and cold tone, “It's a crow, a crow.”
After a moment, the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time, “What is this？”
This time his son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? I have told you already, ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this？”
A minute later the father went to his room and came back with a diary, which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page.
Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa when a crow suddenly landed on the window edge. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied him 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I didn't at all feel angry, but instead felt affection for my son.
If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but speak to them gently, and be kind to them. From today say this aloud, “I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I was a little child. They have always showered me with love. I will take care of my old parents in the best way no matter how they behave.”

2．The underlined word “affection” probably means “ ”．
A．puzzlement B．hatred (恨)
C．worry D．love

3．We can infer that the father wrote that piece of diary at the age of .
A．eighty B．three
C．thirty?eight D．forty?five
答案：C 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句及倒数第二段第一句可知，父亲如今80岁，儿子45岁，在儿子3岁时，父亲写下文中的日记，80－45＋3＝38，故当时父亲38岁。

A．he forgot what had happened
B．he would like his son to read it
C．it could remind himself of the past

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。
How to Love Your Parents
Even if you think that your parents are mean?spirited (小气的) at times, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life. You love them for the fact that they created you, raised you, and are in part a source of who you are. Here are some ways to love your parents.
1 A gentle “good morning” and “I love you” will warm a coldest heart. Remember that they brought you into this world. Without your parents, you might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world.
Respect them more and cherish these moments. You can use these moments to learn from them when you're off on your own. It's OK to get angry but angry actions don't help you or your parents. Act calmly, cool off, keep a journal of your feelings, or talk to a friend. 2
Obey their requests. It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them. It may seem like you are going through hell when you don't get what you want or you have to clean. However, you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it's cold, raining, snowing, or too hot. Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes. 3 Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents?
Keep company with them. Do things with your parents like watching TV, or go somewhere with them. 4 Listen to their old stories and learn from them. You will find they are your teachers in this way or another.
Some people simply may not be able to love their parents. 5 Seek help if you are being abused (虐待) in any way. Parents do not have a right to harm you.
A．Forgiveness is the key.
B．Tell them you love them every morning.
C．Parents will in turn express their love to you.
D．After this, share your feelings with your parents.
E．Anyway, spend as much time with them as you can.
F．Please remember parents are as important as friends.
G．There can be realistic reasons for this, family violence for example.
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文，主要告诉我们应该如何爱父母，即使父母有一些不是，但是他们创造、抚养了我们。
1．B 根据设空后的“A gentle ‘Good morning’ and ‘I love you’ will warm a coldest heart.”可知，每天早晨应跟父母说爱他们。
2．D 根据设空前的“Act calmly, cool off, keep a journal of your feelings, or talk to a friend.”可知，生气的时候要冷静下来，写日记或者和朋友谈谈。之后和父母再沟通，与他们分享你的感受和想法。
3．A 根据设空后的“Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents？”可推断该空应谈及宽恕。forgive或forgiveness是解题关键词。故A项切题。
4．E 根据本段主旨句“Keep company with them.”可知，本段告诉我们要多陪父母。E项(不管怎样，尽可能多地和他们在一起。)符合段意。
5．G 根据空后的“Seek help if you are being abused (虐待) in any way.”可知，有些人无法爱父母有其他原因，比如家庭暴力。原文中are being abused 和G项中的“family violence”对应。

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
When I was ten, I was suddenly faced with the suffering of moving from the only home I had ever known. My whole life, brief as it was, had been spent in that big old house, gracefully touched with the laughter and tears of four generations.
When the final day came, I ran to the small backyard and sat alone, with tears welling up from my heart. Suddenly I felt a hand rest on my shoulder. I looked up to see my grandfather. “It isn't easy, is it, Billy？” he said softly, sitting down on the steps beside me.
“Grandpa，” I replied through my tears, “how can I ever say goodbye to you and all my friends？”
For a moment he just stared off into the apple trees. “Goodbye is such a sad word，” he said. “It seems too final, too cold, for friends to use. We seem to have so many ways of saying goodbye and they all have one thing in common: sadness. When you and your friends must part, I want you to reach deep within you and bring back that first hello. Come with me, my friend，” he whispered.
We walked, hand in hand, to his favorite place in the front yard, where a huge red rosebush sat noticeably alone. Kneeling, he pulled me close. “It isn't just the roses that are beautiful, Billy. It's that special place in your heart that makes them so.”
His eyes met mine again. “Billy, I planted these roses a long time ago—before your mother came to the world. I put them into the soil the day my first son was born. It was my way of saying ‘thank you’ to God. That boy's name was Billy, just like yours. I used to watch him pick roses for his mother.” I saw my grandfather's tears. I had never seen him cry before. His voice became hoarse.

[精彩范文]
Paragraph 1：
“One day a terrible war came, and my son, like so many sons, said goodbye to fight a great evil. Ten months later a telegram came. My son had died in some tiny village in Italy. All I could think of was that the last thing I said to him in life was goodbye.” Grandpa slowly stood up. “Don't ever say goodbye, Billy. Don't ever give in to the sadness and the loneliness of that word. I want you to remember to take that special hello and lock it away within you.”
Paragraph 2：
A year and a half later, my grandfather became seriously ill. When he returned after several weeks in the hospital, he wanted his bed next to the window, where he could see his beloved rosebush. I noted how tired he looked. I took his hand as gently as he had once taken mine. “Hello, Grandpa，” I whispered. His eyes slowly opened, “Hello, my friend.” With a brief smile, he closed them again and forever. Suddenly, I knew what he had meant about never saying goodbye—about refusing to give in to sadness.

只是一个兄弟
这是2016年墨西哥世界铁人三项大赛的最后一场比赛。(距终点)只剩下700米的时候，阿利斯泰尔·布朗利名列第三，他的弟弟乔尼领先。阿利斯泰尔冒着酷热冲向终点线，但当他转过拐角时，他看到他的弟弟快要倒在跑道上了。阿利斯泰尔必须选择：兄弟之爱还是赢得比赛的机会？
对阿利斯泰尔来说，选择是明确的。他的兄弟有困难了。他不得不帮忙。阿利斯泰尔朝乔尼跑去，抓住他，并且开始把他拉向终点线。然后阿利斯泰尔把他的弟弟推过了终点线。这一举动使得乔尼排名第二，阿利斯泰尔本人排名第三。比赛的结果出人意料，但阿利斯泰尔不想与媒体讨论此事。他只是想看看被紧急送往医疗区的弟弟。
布朗利兄弟两人从小就参加铁人三项运动。“很明显，当你的哥哥在做的时候，你认为这是一件很酷的事情，”乔尼说。阿利斯泰尔说，他们在训练时尽可能地互相鼓励。尽管有时会因为一些“愚蠢的事情”发生争吵，阿利斯泰尔还是认为有个兄弟是一种优势。“在我的一生中，我有个弟弟总是试图在我做的每一件事上打败我。这是一种非常积极的力量。”
在数百万人的注视下，对这场比赛的结局众说纷纭：这对兄弟应该(因犯规行为)被取消资格，还是应该受到高度赞扬？但对阿利斯泰尔来说，他的决定很容易解释：“如果我把乔尼落下，妈妈会不高兴的。”在那一刻，他不再是一个为了获得奖牌的运动员——他只是一个兄弟。

We are told that “a family that eats together stays together”. We even follow it by making the whole family sit in front of the television while eating, right? Wrong. Television does nothing to help make the family relationships better. 1 It's thus better to give the TV a break and to sit at the dinner table. Family dinners need another important part—conversations that bring in a pleasant atmosphere.
It often serves well to start the conversation right before dinner so that setting the table and doing other things may become less boring. 2 As a result, there are no embarrassing moments when people are actually eating. Also, you can change the topic if you feel that it might start arguments.
Children aren't usually very good at sharing information and don't know how to reply when you ask them questions like “How was your school today？” 3 For this, you can ask them about the after?class activities that they might be taking part in.
4 Therefore, all controversial (有争议的) topics should not be talked about. Actually, if you have had a funny incident in your day at the work, share it with others. What's more, it serves well if you share your childhood memories with your family. 5 In a word, it is always important to choose the right topics for the family dinner conversations.
A．Try to know more about them than just their school life.
B．It's often difficult to start a conversation at a family dinner.
C．Doing things together can make family members feel interested.
D．In fact, it only increases the distance between members of the family.
E．But try to keep in mind some family dinner conversation ideas.
F．Conversations during dinnertime should encourage family members to eat well.
G．They, especially your kids, will feel excited to hear about what you did as a child.
篇章导读：本文是一篇议论文，讨论了如何在吃饭时改善家庭关系。
1．D 根据设空前一句“Television does nothing to help make the family relationships better.”可知，电视无助于改善家庭关系。D项(事实上，它只会增加家庭成员之间的距离。)承接上文。
2．C 根据设空前一句“It often serves well to start the conversation right before dinner so that setting the table and doing other things may become less boring.”可知，在晚餐前就开始谈话通常很有帮助，这样摆桌子和做其他事情就不会那么无聊了。C项(一起做事可以让家人感到有兴趣。)承接上文。C项中的feel interested和上文中的become less boring相吻合。
3．A 根据设空前一句“Children aren't usually very good at sharing information and don't know how to reply when you ask them questions like ‘How was your school today？’”可知，孩子们通常不太善于分享信息，当你问他们“今天你在学校怎么样？”时他们不知道怎样回答。A项(试着多了解他们，而不仅仅是他们的学校生活。)切题。
4．F 根据设空下一句“Therefore, all controversial (有争议的) topics should not be talked about.”可知，所有有争议的话题都不应该谈论。F项(用餐时间的谈话应该鼓励家庭成员吃得好。)承接下文，切题。设空后的Therefore说明前后是一种因果关系，故答案为F。
5．G 根据设空前一句“What's more, it serves well if you share your childhood memories with your family.”可知，如果你和你的家人分享你的童年记忆，它会很有用。G项(他们，尤其是你的孩子，会因为听到你小时候的所作所为而感到兴奋。)承接上文。
This morning, they left on a long trip to Hawaii. They were as 1 (excite) as if it were their honeymoon (蜜月)．
When my parents married, they had only enough money for a three?day trip fifty miles from home. They made an 2 (agree) that each day they would put a dollar in a special metal box and save it for a honeymoon in Hawaii for their fiftieth anniversary (周年纪念)．

As 5 account grew, they put it in a saving account and then bought CDs.
My parents 6 (be) always very much in love since the day they got married. I can remember Dad 7 (come) home and telling Mom, “I have a dollar in my pocket，” and she would smile at him and say, “I know how to spend it.”
When each of us children married, Mom and Dad gave us a small metal box and told us their secret, 8 we found attractive. All five of us now 9 (save) for our dream honeymoon. Mom and Dad never told us how much money they had managed 10 (save), but it must have been fairly large because when they cashed in those CDs, they had enough for the flights to Hawaii and a hotel room for ten days and plenty of spending money.
1． 2. 3. 4.
5． 6. 7. 8.
9． 10.
答案：1.excited 2.agreement 3.their 4.but 5.the 6.have been 7.coming 8.which 9.are saving 10.to save
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Crying Mother
Coming home from school that dark winter day so long ago, I was filled with excitement of having the weekend off. But I was shocked into stillness by what I saw. Mother, seated at the far end of the sofa, crying with the second?hand green typewriter on the table. She told me that she couldn't type fast and then she was out of work.
My shock and embarrassment at finding Mother in tears was a perfect proof of how little I understood the pressures on her. Sitting beside her on the sofa, I began very slowly to understand. “I guess we all have to fail sometimes.” Mother said quietly. I could sense her pain and the tension of holding back the strong feelings that were interrupted by my arrival.
Suddenly something inside me turned. I reached out and put my arms around her. She broke then. She put her face against my shoulder and sobbed (啜泣). I held her tightly and didn't try to talk. I knew I was doing what I should, what I could and that it was enough. At that moment, feeling Mother's back with feelings, I understood for the first time her being so easy to break. She was still my mother, yet she was something more: a person like me, capable of fear and hurt and failure. I could feel her pain as she must have felt mine on a thousand occasions when I sought comfort in her arms.
A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station offered. “It's a job I can do, though，” she said simply. But the evening practice on the cold green typewriter continued. I had a very different feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her tapping away across the paper. I knew there was something more going on in there than a woman learning to type.
写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者一天放学后回到家发现母亲在哭。作者在安慰母亲的过程中也得知了原因。后来母亲重新找了一份工作，但仍坚持练习打字。作者看到了母亲的努力。

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
I was touched through experiences, memories, books, stories, animals, angels, and most of all other people. People have moved me and molded (对……影响重大) me with moments of love and examples of kindness.
One time on the day before Christmas many years ago when I was a minimum wage mill (工厂) worker, I found myself with very little money and very little time to buy my small children a few simple toys. I knew that they would have to be cheap ones and I hoped my children would like them. I hated not having enough to give them more. I hated being poor. And I hated feeling bad at Christmas rather than happy.
I pulled into a store parking lot and counted my money again. It wasn't much but maybe I could get something small with it. As I was getting out of the car I noticed the Salvation Army (救世军) bell ringer at the entrance. I felt bad again because I didn't feel I could spare anything to give him. I started walking towards the entrance when two cars pulled into empty parking spots in front of me. The first was a shiny, new Cadillac and I felt a twinge of jealousy when I saw it. “How nice，” I thought, “would it be to have enough money to buy a car like that.” The second car, though, was an ancient sedan (轿车) more beat?up and rusty than the one I was driving.
A man hopped (冲) out of the Cadillac and hurried into the store right past the bell ringer without a second glance. Out of the old sedan came a young mother with three small children in tow (紧随着). Her clothes looked as worn out as her car, yet she stopped in front of the bell ringer, smiled, opened her purse, and dropped a bill in his red kettle (钱罐)．

Paragraph 1：
I stood there for a minute in astonishment. “Maybe，” I thought to myself, “it's better to be rich on the inside instead of the outside.” That rich man should have done something to help the poor, but he didn't. Sometimes it was really wrong to judge a person by his or her appearance. I really had respect for the poor mother from the bottom of my heart. She set a good example for her children to follow.
Paragraph 2：
In that second a stream of warmth touched me, my jealousy and hatred (憎恨)left me, and all the love and joy filled me. I searched for a bill out of my own purse, dropped it in the red kettle, and wished the bell ringer a merry Christmas. I found a few fun things to give my kids and drove home with my heart singing. I knew it was going to be a wonderful Christmas. I could hardly wait to see my children enjoying the presents bought for them, including a special gift—love for those in need.
总评 文章整体写作流畅自然，心理和精神层面的描写细腻生动，体现了变化和转折，充满正能量。

My Dad's Best Flower
I remember my first home was a small apartment on the second floor with a lovely and spacious balcony. When my mum was busy in the kitchen, she let me stay on the balcony watching the kids playing in the street. On that balcony I played sometimes with my elder sister, Maria. She was seven years old and when my mum was absent, she was like a mother to me. The balcony was a great hobby place for my father. After his work he used to grow carnations (康乃馨) in flower boxes. His carnations were red, pink and white, and everyone appreciated them for their beauty.
He took care of them with so much love and devotion. He dealt carefully with his flowers like a mother taking care of her baby. Many times I sat on the floor of the balcony for hours observing him and his lovely flowers with patience. He was always doing something on that balcony. He was watering them every day, cleaning the balcony floor, changing the potting soil and when the stems were thick, strong and high enough, he started his improvement operation attentively like a doctor.
My dad took a tiny knife and with his left hand he held the stem of the carnation and measured the height. Then he made a small mark on the stem with his finger. Afterwards he made a sharp cut with the knife, just enough to fit in a grain of barley (插穗的芽). Then he bandaged the stem with a small bandage. His job was then to water the plants and to take care of them. “No one should touch them，” he said to Mum. Every day, when he came home from work he went straight to the balcony.
Mum used to tell us, “Do not touch Daddy's flowers.” For us it was a fascinating experience to watch how the small stems were growing and making flowers. When the carnations had grown big enough, my dad enjoyed watching them every day. We the kids did too.
