(2020·浙江名校协作体二模改编)It was a Saturday afternoon.The color of the sky was changing，first light gray，then dark gray，and finally dark and dense.The wind was blowing heavily，and the trees were swaying in the strong wind.It began to rain cats and dogs.Soon，the road was filled with puddles from the rain.

On such a stormy afternoon，my mother took my five­year­old brother，Christopher，and me to a new big toy store she had read about in the newspaper.“So many toys，” the advertisement had shouted in full and flashy color，“that we had to get a huge warehouse to fit them all！”

Christopher and I couldn't have been more excited.We ran across the parking lot，through the cold rain，as fast as our little legs could carry us.We left our mother outside to battle with the frustrating umbrella，which never worked when she wanted it to.“Christine！Take care of your young brother！” Mother shouted at the top of her voice.

“Christine！I'm going to find the Lego section (乐高积木区)！There's a new pirate ship I want，and I have four dollars！Maybe I can buy it！” Christopher exclaimed and ran off excitedly.I only half heard him.I took a right turn and，to my wide­eyed delight，found myself in the midst of the Barbie (芭比) World. 

I was studying a Barbie and doing some simple math in my head when suddenly an earthshaking clap of thunder roared from the storm outside.I jumped at the noise，dropping the doll to the floor.The lights flickered (闪烁) once and went out，covering everything in a blanket of blackness.Thunder continued to shake the sky and lightning illuminated the store for seconds，casting frightening shadows on my mind.

“Oh no.” I thought.“Where's Christopher？”_______________

Paragraph 1：

“Oh no，”  I thought.“Where's Christopher？” Scared，I was frozen on the spot，overcome with the need to see my brother，hug him and make certain he was all fight.My stomach twisted and turned inside.I ran up and down the aisles through the darkness，panic filling my small chest and making it difficult to breathe.I knocked into displays of candy and tripped over toys，all the while frantically calling my brother's name.Anxious as I was，I could barely see his figure.Tears of frustration and fear trickled down my face，but I continued to run.

Paragraph 2：

“Christine，I'm here.”Excitement took my breath away—there in the dark Lego aisle I found Christopher.He was standing alone，perfectly still，hiding under the pirate ship set.I began to cry out from relief，throwing my arms around him and hugged him tightly.He hugged me back，saying，“I knew if I waited here，Christine，you would be able to find me.” Then，I took his hand in mine and we went to find our mother，who must be desperately searching the store for us.

(2020·聊城二模)I looked out at the smiling faces packed into the school hall.Flashes from cameras lit up in all directions.The applause filled my ears.I had done it.I had really done it.

Just a few months earlier，I would never have pictured myself acting in a play in front of two hundred people.“Not for a million dollars，” I would have said.But when the time came，I got up on stage and faced one of my greatest fears—and discovered I could do more than I ever gave myself credit for.I found a new person inside me，a much more daring，outgoing person who had been hidden all along，just waiting for the opportunity to appear.

If not for my teacher，Mrs Sather，I might never have found that opportunity.

In the first and second grade，I was extremely shy.I had friends，but it just wasn't in my personality to be very outgoing，even when I knew someone well.I was afraid I would do or say something wrong，so usually I just smiled and listened to other people's conversations.I did well in school and I loved to write.However，I would escape into my writing，where I could be myself and never had to worry about what other people thought of me.In my stories，I was never shy.   

My teacher，Mrs Sather，always encouraged me to write more.She told our class to go after our dreams and dig in with both hands.I think she was one of the first people to see my inner strength.One day，she announced that our class was going to perform a play she had written.“I'll begin to cast everyone tomorrow，” she said.“I need someone who is not afraid to be on stage in front of a lot of people to play the lead part of Dorothy.Anybody want to try？” A few excited hands shot up—mine，of course，was not one of them—and Mrs Sather smiled.“We'll talk more about it tomorrow，” she said.Then the bell rang and my classmates slowly left the classroom.

Paragraph 1：

When I was loading up my backpack，Mrs Sather asked me to go to her.Mrs.Sather stared into my eyes as if seeing my inner self locked away inside.“I would love you to give this a try for me.But if you really don't want to，I won't make you.It is your choice.” Mrs.Sather wanted me in this role.She shocked me，for I was always a shy person，not even dare to speak loud in public.   

Paragraph 2：

Hearing Mrs Sather's words，I realized it was time to make a change.I decided to throw off my shy cloak.I wanted to prove that I also could do something good in public.After seconds of hesitation，I nodded my head，confidently saying “Mrs Sather I want to，no，I am determined to paly the role.And I will try my best to perform it well.” Looking at me with a big smile on face，Mrs Sather said “I believe in you.If you met some problem，you can turn to me.” “Thank you！” I left her office happily.

(2020·滨州高三第二次模拟)Through our lives，we can gain a lot and lose so much.But being honest should always be with us，as honesty is always regarded as a virtue.Every time I talk about the topic，something crowds in my mind as if it had just happened.   

I was 16 when one morning，Dad told me I could drive him to Mijas and then take the car in a nearby garage to get it serviced.At that time，I had just passed the driving test，and I hardly had a chance to use the car，so I said yes without hesitation.

I drove my father to Mijas，promising to pick him up again at 4 pm，then I went to a nearby garage，and put the car in there.Since I had several hours to spare，I decided to go to a movie theater near the garage to see the movie.However，I was so absorbed in the plot of the movie that I forgot the time.When the last movie finished，I looked at my watch: 6 pm.I was two hours late!

I thought my father would be very angry if he knew what I was doing.And he would never let me drive again.So I decided to make up an excuse.Then，I drove to the appointed place，my father was sitting in a corner，waiting patiently.I first apologized for being late，then told him that I wanted to get there as soon as possible，but that something was wrong with some of the main parts of the car.   

I would never forget the way he looked at me.“I'm very disappointed that you thought you had to lie to me，Jason.” My father looked at me again and said，“When you didn't show up on time，I called the gas station and asked if there was anything wrong.They told me you never picked up the car.So，you see，I know there's nothing wrong with the car at all.”

Paragraph 1：

A wave of guilt swept over me and I had to admit the fact that I had gone to the movies and that was the real reason why I was late._______________________________________________________

Paragraph 1：

A wave of guilt swept over me and I had to admit the fact that I had gone to the movies and that was the real reason why I was late.Dad listened carefully as a sadness passed through him，“I'm angry，not with you but with myself.You see.I realize that I have failed as a father if after all these years you feel that you have to lie to me.I have failed because I have brought up a son who cannot even tell the truth to his own father.I'm going to walk home now and think where I have gone wrong all these years”.

Paragraph 2：

“But father，it's exactly eighteen miles home from here，and it's dark.You can't walk back.”  I begged.My protests，my apologies and the rest of my words were useless.I had let my father down and I was about to learn one of the most painful lessons of my life.Dad began walking along the dusty roads.I quickly jumped in the car and followed behind.I apologized all the way，telling him how sorry I was，but he simply ignored me.For 18 miles he kept walking.Seeing my father in so much pain was the most awful experience that I have ever faced.However it was also the most successful lesson.
