I walked into a stranger as he passed by me.

“Excuse me，” I said.

He replied with a smile and said, “Please excuse me, too. I didn't notice you. ”

We apologized (道歉) and went for our own ways.

Later that day, when I was cooking, my daughter was standing too near. When I turned to reach for some milk, I nearly knocked her over. “Move out of the way！” I shouted.

She walked away sadly. But I didn't feel like I had to apologize to her.

While I was in bed that evening, my husband said to me, “While dealing with a stranger, you were polite. But with a daughter you love, you were unkind. Your daughter brought you some flowers that she picked herself this afternoon. You will find them in the kitchen by the door. Have you seen the tears in her eyes？”

I quietly went and sat down by my daughter's bed.

“Honey, I am so sorry，” I said. “Are these the flowers you picked for me？”

She said, “I found them by the tree. I picked them because they're pretty like you. I knew you'd like them, especially the blue ones. ”

I tearfully replied, “Sweetie, I'm really sorry for the way I acted today. I shouldn't have shouted at you. ”

“It's OK. I love you anyway，” she said as she kissed me on my cheek.

Late on a stormy night, Wendy woke up. She looked outside her window. There was a flash of lightning, and just at that time, she saw a strange man standing near the door. Then he disappeared.

The next morning, Wendy told her family what she saw.

“That's just Mr Green，” her mum said. “He's our new neighbor. ”

The first time my wife Linda gave birth was in a hospital.

When Linda got pregnant(怀孕) for the second time, we wanted a home birth, not just for ourselves, but for our daughter. We are very open with our daughter. We want to teach her respect and awe(敬畏) for the things of bodies. So she was part of the process from the very beginning.

In the morning, our daughter offered her mom water and food while she rested. When she found the noise and activity of birth, she was too nervous to stay long, so she spent a few minutes next to the tub(盆), and then went into another room to play. The midwives (接生婆) called her back in time to see her brother come into the world. As Linda pulled our tiny newborn son up, our daughter and I rushed to her side, all four of us hugging and crying. We were very excited. That night, and many times since then, our daughter said, “I'm so proud of Mom for having a baby. ”It's a part of her life.

It was crucial that our daughter was part of that experience, not just for her, but for Linda and me as well. All the things we wanted for her—a very familiar environment; continuing support; good food—were things we needed but didn't have the first time Linda gave birth. We crossed this threshold(门槛) together, as a family, and it was messy and painful and unusual and mysterious and really perfect.

四、任务型阅读。

When I was at the age of ten, I heard that our neighbor, a retired(退休的)doctor, had lost his wife after a long illness. He had the most wonderful garden in his backyard. I could see his beautiful flowers from the street. The garden was full of different kinds of flowers. I used to think there wasn't a flower in the world that he didn't grow.

He lived near my home, but my family knew little about him. We just waved our hands and said hello to him as we walked past his house on the way to the city park. I was sure he was lonely because I saw his sad look on his face. So I decided to help him smile. After school, I would go to his house and chat with him while he was working in his backyard. Through the way, he told me all about his flowers. I could know gardening was his hobby.

Sometimes，I sang and danced, and he would clap(拍) his hands and say “Bravo(好极了)”. For me, it was a perfect stage(舞台). Looking back as an adult, he may have been cheering the fact that this torture(折磨) was nearly ending.

八、范文：

Dear Tom，

Some students think being home alone is terrible but I don't think so.

Last month my parents were away on holiday for three days. They worried that I couldn't look after myself, but I could. Every day I got up on time, and then I went to school by bus. After school I did my homework first, and then I tried to cook food. Although I burned my food, I still liked it. Also, I cleaned up the house and looked after our pet dog. When my parents came back, they were so surprised! And they were proud of me.

Yours，

Li Wei
