My son, Simon, and his good friends were heading for the snowfield. I my car to make sure that everyone could get to the drop-off point so that they could get together and enjoy their week"s by snowboarding and skiing.
The only thing that l was thinking of on my journey was that as soon as I and said goodbye,1 would make the trip ,in total, a round trip of 900 kilometers in just 10 hours. Such a long drive in one day was frightening, particularly as I was looking forward to relaxation.
Simon and I talked, on our way, a little about his break and a whole lot of his school subjects. It was great to have this time with him as we spent five continuous hours together.
On my return trip, I a strange sense of loneliness in some heavy morning fog. Within an hour it cleared. I spent the next four hours listening to some CDs and enjoying the scenery.

Now I"m looking forward to my next event and many more chances to spend quality time with those who are important to me and make my life more rewarding.

Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn"t think there would be any difficulty in getting it repaired, as there are a lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception（接待）． I was quite wrong. The man wouldn"t even look at my chair.
The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth -- so I decided that my approach must be wrong.
I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, "Would you like to buy a chair?"
He looked it over carefully and said,- "Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?"
“Twenty pounds," I said.
“OK," he said, "I"ll give you twenty pounds."
“It"s got a slightly broken leg," I said.
‘"Yes, I saw that, it"s nothing."
Everything was going according to my plan and l was getting excited. "What will you do with it?" I asked.
“Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done."
“I"ll buy it," I said.
“What do you mean? You"ve just sold it to me," he said.
"Yes, I know but I"ve changed my mind. I am sorry. I"ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it."
“You must be crazy," he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair."
“You"re right," I said. "And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, "Would you repair this chair for me?""
“I wouldn"t have agreed to do it," he said. "We don"t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I"II repair this for you. Shall we say for five pounds?" He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.

John has a pet dog named Sunlight. He loves him very much. He ever told others that Sunlight was one of his family members.
One midnight, John’s house was on fire suddenly. John was sleeping and didn’t know what was happening. At that time, Sunlight noticed the fire and woke up John. John called the police. Soon the fire was put out by the police.
Now John often says to others, “ The dog is really my good friend. In the thick smoke and big fire, he could have run out of the house first, but he didn’t. No matter how dangerous it is, he first thinks of his owner.”
Today more and more dogs are wandering ( 流浪 ) in the street. Many people don’t want to keep their dogs because they move to another place. Even some people say that they can’t stand the dogs’ dirtiness. Animals are one part of our society. Maybe our pets will give us a hand like Sunlight someday.
小题1:We knew Sunlight is John’s son from the passage.
小题2:The police put out the fire that night.
小题3:Sunlight ran away because he was afraid of the fire.
小题4:Some people don’t want to keep dogs because they move to another place.
小题5:The passage mainly told us when something is on fire, you must call the police first. |
