The Pacific Northwest is undoubtedly the best region for such an outdoor activity. The nature in these states is just amazing. From waterfalls to thick woods, this region is the best place for the nature lovers.

But the place is equally amazing. By visiting the Carroll Rim Trail you will see the best sunsets ever, so be sure not to miss this place.
Oneonta Gorge
Oneonta Gorge is probably one of the most beautiful places in Oregon. This place provides hiking in shallow water while enjoying the incredible view of rocks covered with moss (苔藓) . It is recommended that this place should be visited in summer, since during this period the water level is the lowest. Walking in shallow cold water definitely pays off once you reach the Oneonta Gorge.
Mount Storm King
The Mount Storm King in Washington is one of the most visited places in the state. The incredible views of the mountains and the water provide a wonderful show for the nature lovers. The trail has an elevation ( 海拔) of 2, 300 feet, which means you have to come prepared. The difficult hiking is worth once you see the surroundings.
Keep this list in mind. Once you decide to see this region, you don’t want to miss these geographical features. We are sure you will regret not enjoying the wonders and the beauty of the nature.
1. Which place should a couple with 3 kids choose?

【答案】1. A 2. D 3. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍在Pacific Northwest进行户外活动的好去处。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。由Toketee Falls段中“However, coming to the actual place will be an unforgettable experience. This is a perfect place for families, especially kids.(然而，来到真正的地方将是一次难忘的经历。这是一个适合家庭，尤其是孩子的理想场所。)”可知，Toketee Falls适合孩子们玩耍。故选A项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。由Toketee Falls中“The Toketee Falls is just breathtaking.(Toketee瀑布令人叹为观止。)”；Oneonta Gorge中“Walking in shallow cold water definitely pays off once you reach the Oneonta Gorge.(一旦你到Oneonta Gorge，在浅冷水中行走肯定会是值得的。)”；Mount Storm King中“The incredible views of the mountains and the water provide a wonderful show for the nature lovers. (令人难以置信的山和水的景色为自然爱好者提供了一场精彩的表演。)”可知，其它三处都讲过可以玩水，只有Carroll Rim Trail没有提及到玩水。故选D项。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。由Mount Storm King中“The trail has an elevation of 2, 300 feet, which means you have to come prepared. The difficult hiking is worth once you see the surroundings.(这条小道的海拔高度 2300英尺，这意味着你必须做好准备。一旦你看到周围的环境，这趟艰难的徒步旅行就值得了。)”可知，在Mount Storm King中徒步旅行是很艰难的，参加者需要有坚强的意志和良好身体状态。故选D项。
B
Wang Shuang was just five when her parents divorced, dropped her at her uncle’s and left. Football, as it often is, became an escape.
At seven, she was spotted by coach Xu Yilong, who found Wang quick in her playful behaviour. As the only girl in the boys’ team, Wang’s performances were impressive, earning her the nickname “Iron Girl.” And soon, she sensed the sport’s power. Football allowed her to “release herself“ and realize ”whatever happens, football never leaves you alone.”
However, life was never smooth sailing. The constant jibes(嘲讽) from some people, who always tried to push her down and destroy her hopes, affected her so deeply that she lost confidence. “They were saying I had no talent at all. Gradually, I felt really so.” Wang once wrote. But never did she stop playing. When she was called up to the national team, aged 17, Wang thought, “Me? Are you sure?” When a world-famous club wanted to sign her, she was “excited that an excellent coach thought I was good.” It was only then that she felt confident in her abilities. “I felt recognized. Perhaps I had a bit of talent after all.”
Not any “bit of talent”; the genius is praised as China’s once-in-a-generation player.
China is a pioneer of women’s football in Asia and has won the continental championship eight times, including seven straight titles between 1986 and 1999. That was their golden age. Gradually, though, the dynasty declined. It is hoped that Wang will inspire the women’s football of the country to its former height.
Coaches are almost always hesitant to speak about individual players. But when coach Shui was asked about Wang before the match against Vietnam, she couldn’t stop mentioning her influence on the team. Unfailingly performing on the big stage, Wang did not let her team down. When they lacked a quality ball, she delivered two high assists that finally led her team into the last-four clash(四分之一决赛).
“Nobody knows how hard it was,” declared Wang after the match. “We overcame difficulties. We also showed our strong spiritual power. I am proud of my team.”
4. What can we infer about Wang from the 2nd paragraph?
A. She earned a living on her own. B. She was released from the team.
C. She was laughed at by the boys. D. She found a sense of belonging.
5. How did Wang regain faith in her abilities?
A. By winning recognition. B. By obtaining inspiration.
C. By playing in the national team. D. By ignoring other people’s jibes.
6. Which would best describe coach Shui’s attitude to Wang?
A. Conservative. B. Contradictory.
C. Favourable. D. Critical.
7. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Wang Shuang: A Steel Rose B. Wang Shuang: A Child Genius
C. Wang Shuang: A Football Pioneer D. Wang Shuang: A Golden Age Creator
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了中国女子足球运动员王霜的相关经历和成就。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容“At seven, she was spotted by coach Xu Yilong, who found Wang quick in her playful behaviour. As the only girl in the boys’ team, Wang’s performances were impressive, earning her the nickname “Iron Girl.” And soon, she sensed the sport’s power. Football allowed her to “release herself” and realize “whatever happens, football never leaves you alone.”(7岁时，她被教练徐一龙看中，徐一龙发现王霜活泼好动。作为男队中唯一的女生，王霜的表现令人印象深刻，为她赢得了“铁妹”的绰号。很快，她就感受到这项运动的力量。足球让她“释放自我”，并意识到“无论发生什么，足球永远不会让你孤单。”)”可知，王霜认为足球能让她释放自己，意识到，无论发生什么，足球永远不会让她孤单。由此可推知，王霜从足球身上感受到了一种归属感。故选D项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“When she was called up to the national team, aged 17, Wang thought, “Me? Are you sure?” When a world-famous club wanted to sign her, she was “excited that an excellent coach thought I was good.” It was only then that she felt confident in her abilities. “I felt recognized. Perhaps I had a bit of talent after all.”(17岁那年，当她被征召进国家队时，她想：“我？你确定吗？”当一家世界著名的俱乐部想要签下她时，她“很兴奋，因为一位优秀的教练认为我很好。”直到那时，她才对自己的能力充满信心。“我觉得自己被认可了。也许我还是有点天赋的。”)”可知，在被招进国家队，自己的能力被认可时，王霜才对自己的能力充满信心。故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段中的“But when coach Shui was asked about Wang before the match against Vietnam, she couldn’t stop mentioning her influence on the team. Unfailingly performing on the big stage, Wang did not let her team down. When they lacked a quality ball, she delivered two high assists that finally led her team into the last-four clash(四分之一决赛).(但在与越南的比赛前，当水教练被问及王霜时，她忍不住提到了王霜对球队的影响。在大舞台上的不懈表现，王霜没有让她的球队失望。当他们缺少一个高质量的球时，她送出了两个高助攻，最终带领球队进入四强。)”可知，王霜送出了两个高助攻，最终带领球队进入四强。由此可推知，水教练对王霜的态度是很支持，很赞扬的。故选C项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章第一段提到了足球成为了王霜的逃避；第二段提到了王霜7岁时被教练看中，加入足球队进行训练；第三段提到了王霜曾受到周围人的打击和嘲笑而不自信，但被招进国家队后重拾了信心；第四、五、六、七段介绍了王霜的相关成就。由此可知，本文主要介绍了王霜的个人经历，跌宕起伏，但依然保持对足球的热情和初心，犹如绽放的铿锵玫瑰。A项“Wang Shuang: A Steel Rose(“铿锵玫瑰”王霜)”更符合文章主题。故选A项。
C
In Japan, you are what your blood type is. A person’s blood type is popularly believed to decide his/her character and personality. Type-A people are generally considered sensitive perfectionists and good team players, but over-anxious. Type OS are curious and generous but stubborn. Type ABs are artistic but mysterious and unpredictable, and type Bs are cheerful but eccentric, individualistic, and selfish. Though lacking scientific evidence, this belief is widely seen in books, magazines, and television shows. Last year, four of Japan’s top 10 best-sellers were about how blood type determines personality, through which readers seemed to be able to discover the definition of their blood type or have their self-image confirmed.
The blood-type belief has been used in unusual ways. The women softball team that won gold for Japan at the Beijing Olympics is reported to have used blood-type theories to customize training for each player. Some kindergartens have adopted teaching methods along blood group lines, and even major companies reportedly make decisions about assignments based on an employee’s blood type. In 1990, Mitsubishi Electronics was reported to have announced the formation of a team composed entirely of AB workers, thanks to “their ability to make plans”.
The belief even affects politics. One former prime minister considered it important enough to reveal in his official profile that he was a type A, while his opposition rival was type B. In 2011, a minister, Ryu Matsumoto, was forced to resign after only a week in office, when a bad-tempered encounter with local officials was televised. In his resignation speech, he blamed his failings on the fact that he was blood type B.
The blood-type craze, considered simply harmless fun by some Japanese, may reveal itself as prejudice and discrimination. In fact, this seems so common that the Japanese now have a term for it: bura-hara, meaning blood-type harassment (骚扰). There are reports of discrimination leading to children being bullied, ending of happy relationships, and loss of job opportunities due to blood type.
8. What’s the main idea of paragraph 1?
A. The books about blood type are popular in Japan.
B. The Japanese attach great importance to blood type.
C. The Japanese confirm their personality totally through blood type.
D. The Japanese think blood type bestsellers are important to their self-image.
9. Which blood type can we infer is the LEAST favored in Japan?
A. Type O. B. Type A. C. Type B. D. Type AB.
10. Why did Ryu Matsumoto resign from office?
A. Because he revealed his rival’s blood type.
B. Because he was seen behaving rudely on TV.
C. Because he was discriminated against by others.
D. Because he blamed his failings on local officials.
11. What is the speaker’s attitude toward the blood-type belief in Japan?
A. Negative. B. Defensive. C. Objective. D. Encouraging.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。本文主要介绍血型在日本非常重要，以及日本人对不同血型的观点和看法。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“In Japan, you are what your blood type is. A person’s blood type is popularly believed to decide his/her character and personality. Type-A people are generally considered sensitive perfectionists and good team players, but over-anxious. Type OS are curious and generous but stubborn. Type ABs are artistic but mysterious and unpredictable, and type Bs are cheerful but eccentric, individualistic, and selfish. ”(在日本，你就是你的血型。人们普遍认为，一个人的血型决定了他/她的性格和个性。A类人通常被认为是敏感的完美主义者和优秀的团队合作者，但过于焦虑。O型性格好奇心强，慷慨大方，但很固执。AB型是艺术型，但神秘莫测；B型是快乐型，但古怪，个人主义，自私。)以及本段后文可知，第一段主要讲述日本人认为血型很重要，不同的血型决定着不同的性格。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The belief even affects politics. One former prime minister considered it important enough to reveal in his official profile that he was a type A, while his opposition rival was type B. In 2011, a minister, Ryu Matsumoto, was forced to resign after only a week in office, when a bad-tempered encounter with local officials was televised. In his resignation speech, he blamed his failings on the fact that he was blood type B.”(这种信仰甚至影响政治。一位前首相认为，在其官方简介中透露自己是A型血人足够重要，而他的反对对手是B型血人。2011年，部长松本龙雄在任职仅一周后就被迫辞职，当时电视转播了他与地方官员的一次脾气暴躁的遭遇。在辞职演说中，他将自己的失败归咎于自己是B型血)可知，前首相让民众相信自己的对手是B型血，以及松本龙雄把自己的失败归咎于是B型血。由此推知，B型血应该是最不被大家喜欢的血型。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“ In 2011, a minister, Ryu Matsumoto, was forced to resign after only a week in office, when a bad-tempered encounter with local officials was televised. ”(2011年，大臣松本龙雄（Ryu Matsumoto）在与当地官员的一次脾气恶劣的会面在电视上播出后，上任仅一周后就被迫辞职)可知，松本龙雄在任职仅一周后就被迫辞职是因为转播了他的不当行为。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The blood-type craze, considered simply harmless fun by some Japanese, may reveal itself as prejudice and discrimination. In fact, this seems so common that the Japanese now have a term for it: bura-hara, meaning blood-type harassment (骚扰). There are reports of discrimination leading to children being bullied, ending of happy relationships, and loss of job opportunities due to blood type.”（血型热，被一些日本人认为是无害的玩笑，可能会暴露出偏见和歧视。事实上，这似乎很常见，日本人现在有了一个术语：bura hara，意思是血型骚扰。有报道称，歧视导致儿童受到欺负，结束了幸福的关系，并因血型而失去了工作机会）推知，作者对日本的血型观念是消极的态度。故选A项。
D
You’ve most likely heard the news by now: A car-commuting, desk-bound, TV-watching lifestyle can be harmful to our health. All the time that we spend rooted in the chair is linked to increased risks of so many deadly diseases that experts have named this modern-day health epidemic the “sitting disease”.
Sitting for too long slows down the body’s metabolism (新陈代谢) and the way enzymes (酶) break down our fat reserves, raising both blood sugar levels and blood pressure. Small amounts of regular activity, even just standing and moving around, throughout the day is enough to bring the increased levels back down. And those small amounts of activity add up. Thirty minutes of light activity in two or three-minute bursts can be just as effective as a half-hour block of exercise. But without that activity, blood sugar levels and blood pressure keep rising, steadily damaging the inside of the arteries (动脉) and increasing the risk of diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and other serious diseases. In essence, fundamental changes in biology occur if you sit for too long.
But wait, you’re a runner. You needn’t worry about the harm of a sedentary lifestyle because you exercise regularly, right? Well, not so fast. Recent studies show that people spend an average of 64 hours a week sitting, whether or not they exercise 150 minutes a week as recommended by World Health Organization (WHO). Regular exercisers, furthermore, are found to be about 30 percent less active on days when they exercise. Overall, most people simply aren’t exercising or moving around enough to counteract all the harm that can result from sitting nine hours or more a day.
Scared straight out of your chair? Good. The remedy is as simple as standing up and taking activity breaks.
12. What is the best way to bring down high blood sugar level and blood pressure?
A. Exercising for 150 minutes or more every week.
B. Getting rid of the habit of car commuting and TV watching.
C. Interrupting sitting time with light activity as often as possible.
D. Standing or moving around for at least two or three minutes every day.
13. What does the underlined word “sedentary” in Para.3 probably mean?
A. Modern. B. Inactive. C. Risky. D. Healthy.
14. Those who do serious exercise_________.
A. aren’t likely to sit nine hours or more a day
B. always live longer than those who don’t exercise
C. tend to stand or move around less on days spent exercising
D. do not meet the standard of exercise recommended by WHO
15. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The challenges of the modern lifestyle.
B. The effect of regular exercise on our body.
C. The reasons for the spread of a modern epidemic.
D. The threat to our health from long hours of sitting.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是长时间坐着对健康的危害。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Sitting for too long slows down the body’s metabolism (新陈代谢) and the way enzymes (酶) break down our fat reserves, raising both blood sugar levels and blood pressure. Small amounts of regular activity, even just standing and moving around, throughout the day is enough to bring the increased levels back down. (久坐会减缓身体的新陈代谢和酶分解脂肪储备的方式，提高血糖水平和血压。少量的有规律的活动，即使只是站着走动，也足以将增加的水平降下来。)”可知，降低高血糖和高血压的最好方法是尽可能多地用轻微活动来打断坐着的时间。故选C项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。第三段最后一句“Overall, most people simply aren’t exercising or moving around enough to counteract all the harm that can result from sitting nine hours or more a day. (总来说，大多数人的锻炼或运动都不足以抵消每天久坐9小时或更长时间带来的所有伤害。)”说明锻炼不足以抵消久坐带来的危害，是对上文划线词句问题的答案总结，再结合前文可以推知“You needn’t worry about the harm of a sedentary lifestyle because you exercise regularly, right? (因为你经常锻炼，你不必担心sedentary的生活方式的危害，对吗？)”其中划线词汇应为“久坐”的意思，选项B“不活动的”与之意义最为接近。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Recent studies show that people spend an average of 64 hours a week sitting, whether or not they exercise 150 minutes a week as recommended by World Health Organization (WHO). Regular exercisers, furthermore, are found to be about 30 percent less active on days when they exercise. (最近的研究表明，人们每周平均有64小时是坐着的，不管他们是否按照世界卫生组织（WHO）的建议每周运动150分钟。此外，研究发现，经常锻炼的人在锻炼的日子里，身体活动率要低30%左右。)”可以推知，那些认真锻炼的人在锻炼的日子里往往站着或走动也更少。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段中“All the time that we spend rooted in the chair is linked to increased risks of so many deadly diseases that experts have named this modern-day health epidemic the ‘sitting disease’.(我们长时间坐在椅子上，与许多致命疾病的患病风险增加有关，以至于专家将这种现代健康流行病称为‘久坐病’。)”可知，这篇文章主要讲的是长时间坐着对健康的危害。故选D项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. Similarly, music is a part of many people’s lives. ___16___ Here are some of their similarities.
Both language and music have a writing system
In English we record language using the alphabet, which is a collection of letters. Similarly, we use notes to keep a record of music. Just as you are reading this collection of letters on the paper and find meaning in it, musicians read notes and create meaning in the form of music which we can hear. ___17___ For example, we can read the ideas or hear the composition of someone who lived hundreds of years ago, which is really quite exciting.
Both vary with culture
___18___ In the same way we know that styles of music are different around the world, which gives us the opportunity to explore many different cultures through their music. This also means that there is something for everyone! Even if you don’t like Britpop melodies, you may love the energy of Latin American salsa music.
Both share emotion
How do you know that I am angry? ___19___ Similarly, music can sound angry, sad or happy. Music can show you exactly how the composer was or is feeling, and allows us to share that emotion. When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song. ___20___
A. Different culture makes different music.
B. Both language and music play a huge role in our lives.
C. You can guess where someone is from by listening to their language.
D. By reading pieces of text or music, we are able to share experiences through time.
E. In contrast, you have probably also listened to sad music when you were feeling down.
F. Of course, you may be able to see it in my face, but you will know for sure through my words.
G. We have all used music to express our emotions, often combining it with language in the form of song lyrics.
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. C 19. F 20. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了语言和音乐的一些相似性。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. Similarly, music is a part of many people’s lives.(语言是我们日常生活的一部分，无论我们生活在世界的哪个角落。同样，音乐也是许多人生活的一部分)”可知，本句与上文进行总结，指出语言和音乐对我们生活的重要性。故B选项“语言和音乐在我们的生活中都扮演着重要的角色”符合语境。故选B。
【17题详解】
根据后文“For example, we can read the ideas or hear the composition of someone who lived hundreds of years ago, which is really quite exciting.(例如，我们可以读到几百年前的人的想法或听到他们的创作，这真的是相当令人兴奋)”可知，后文的例子提到我们可以读到几百年前的人的想法或听到他们的创作，可见通过阅读文章或音乐，我们可以穿过时间限制来分享前人的经验。故D选项“通过阅读文章或音乐片段，我们能够穿过时间分享经验”符合语境。故选D。
【18题详解】
根据后文“In the same way, we know that styles of music are different around the world, which gives us the opportunity to explore many different cultures through their music. This also means that there is something for everyone! Even if you don’t like Britpop melodies, you may love the energy of Latin American salsa music.(同样，我们知道世界各地的音乐风格是不同的，这让我们有机会通过他们的音乐来探索许多不同的文化。这也意味着每个人都有适合自己的东西！即使你不喜欢英式流行音乐，你也可能喜欢拉丁美洲萨尔萨音乐的活力)”可知，后文提到可以通过不同的音乐风格来探索许多不同的文化，可见通过听音乐也能了解一些文化方面的信息，如语言等。故C选项“你可以通过听他们的语言来猜测他们来自哪里”符合语境。故选C。
【19题详解】
根据上文“How do you know that I am angry?(你怎么知道我生气了？)”可知，本句回答上文关于如何找到生气问题，故F选项“当然，你也许能从我的脸上看出来，但你会从我的话里知道”符合语境。故选F。
【20题详解】
根据上文“When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song.(当你感到快乐的时候，你可能想唱一首快乐的歌，跳舞)”可知，上文提到了感到快乐的情况，故本句与上文并列，也应当是在说明情绪方面的变化，故E选项“相反，当你感到沮丧的时候，你可能也听过悲伤的音乐”符合语境。故选E。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I remember the hot summer when my friends and I discovered ice cream sandwiches at the corner store. They were ten cents apiece, a lot of money back then. I don’t remember how we came to buy one and taste it, but we were mad after that. Of course, none of us had any money. Whether we rode our bikes, or played ball, or sat and played cards, we talked and dreamed about those soft, creamy sandwiches.
My dad worked nights, coming home to join us for breakfast, and then sleeping till late afternoon. When he came home one morning, I heard the jingle (叮当声) of change in his pants and something ugly slowly came into my mind. That change was just what we needed, what I had to have. All day long I kept coming into the house and listening at his door. When I heard his sleeping sounds, I cracked the door. And there hanging at the foot of the bed were those pants. I slipped in and took a handful of change. It was enough for my friends and me to buy an ice cream sandwich, which we ate like greedy pigs. And I became a hero to my band of friends.
That went on every day for about two weeks. I had gotten good at slipping in and slipping out, and then ran to my friends and we headed to the store.
One day there was no change in dad’s pocket so I felt for his wallet, hesitated a moment, and then took out two whole dollars. I had been okay with taking the change, but those dollars made my face hot. Even before we began enjoying sandwiches, my stomach felt sick. The importance and joy I had felt buying for my friends was gone. If dad knew what I had done, he’d kill me.

Early that afternoon, I hid myself in our basement, crying.

In a moment I would never forget, he said, “Son, I’ve known since the first day you took the money.”
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Possible version 1:
Paragraph 1:
Early that afternoon, I hid myself in our basement, crying. I had never done such a thing before. I felt guilty and frightened. I didn’t know how my father would punish me when he knew it. Just then, the basement door opened and I heard someone come in. I didn’t look up, but I knew it was my father. He came up to me and I could hear my heart beating, but I felt a hand gently touching my head. I looked up and tears came down. I said vaguely, “Dad, I. . . , I was wrong. I secretly took money in your pocket every day to invite my friends to eat sandwiches, and even today I took two dollars. “After that, I lowered my head again and waited for my father’s furious reaction.
Paragraph 2:
In a moment I would never forget, he said, “Son, I’ve known since the first day you took the money.” I was shocked to hear my father say so. Suddenly I didn’t know what to say. Dad continued, “But, son, I’m waiting for when you can realize your mistakes. I put change in my pocket every day, and even changed into two dollars today. You know, mistakes are like these money, more and more, bigger and bigger. Fortunately, you found the mistake that made you feel uncomfortable and have the courage to admit it. I think you’ve done a good job, son.” Since then, my father’s words have always sounded in my ears from time to time, guiding the way of my life.
Possible version 2:
Paragraph 1:
Early that afternoon, I hid myself in our basement, crying. Never before in my life had I done such a thing. I couldn’t face my Dad, and didn’t know what to do. How regretful I was. Just then, the basement door opened and in came my father, who approached me, bent over and gently touched my head. My heart beating faster, I cried even louder. “Dad, I was wrong. I secretly took money in your pocket every day to invite my friends to eat sandwiches.” I apologized.
Paragraph 2:
In a moment I would never forget, he said, “Son, I’ve known it since the first day you took the money.” So shocked and ashamed was I that I couldn’t utter a single word. Dad continued to explain that he was deeply hurt at the very beginning and patiently waited for me to tell him the truth. He was pleased that I had realized my own mistake and gathered up the courage to admit it. With moist eyes, I hugged him tightly, promising that I wouldn’t make the silly mistake again. It occurred to me that the precious lesson taught by my Dad would definitely guide the way of my future.
