Kathy's family vacation to the beach was usually the highlight of her summer. This year, however, her parents announced a new rule: no phones for the entire week.
"But my friends will be expecting updates about the trip, "Kathy complained. Kathy's mom gave her a serious look. Unwillingly, Kathy handed her phone over and her mom locked it away.
The drive to the beach house took most of the day. As they turned off the highway onto country back roads, the clouds darkened. Rain started to pour. "Even more beautiful in the rain," her mother said. " What do you think, Kathy " Kathy glared at her mom. "Beautiful, "she muttered.
That night after dinner, Kathy wandered into the kitchen, where her father was washing dishes. She gave her father a loving look and said in her sweetest voice, "Couldn't I have my phone back, just for one second Just so I can tell everyone what an amazing time I'm having "
"Can't, "he said. "It's not here. Remember " Kathy was very annoyed. Having nothing better to do, she examined the dusty bookcase in the living room. The books looked as dull as the weather. On the top shelf, however, she spotted a puzzle. She took it, emptied the pieces on the table, and began to sort them.
After what seemed like a few minutes, she looked up. It was past ten o'clock. She had been working for almost two hours! She yawned. The puzzle was less than half done, but she was exhausted. So, she went to bed.
When Kathy awoke the next morning, she jumped out of bed and threw open the curtains. A blazing sun was rising over the blue ocean. The sky was cloudless. The scene reminded Kathy of a photo that her friend betty had recently sent her.
This view was even better. It would leave everyone speechless. Kathy dashed to her bedside table and reached for her phone. But there was nothing there. She sighed. Still, she wandered in front of the window, admiring the sunrise.

Before our wedding, my fiance(未婚夫) and I were very excited about shopping for our first house. So, we took a look at several houses, yet as our funds were limited, none of the houses in our price range seemed satisfactory.
One agent recommended a house in particular. Although her description of the house sounded very wonderful, the price was beyond our range, so we declined. However, she kept urging us to have a look at least.
We finally agreed and went to take a look. It was lovely at first sight. It was small but charming, overlooking a quiet beautiful lake. Walking through the rooms and talking with the owners, a kind and hospitable elderly couple, we felt the warmth and happiness of the marriage within that house. It was exactly the house we wanted! Perfect as it was, the price remained much too high for us. But every day, we could sit by the lake, looking at the house and dreaming of what it would be like to live there.
Days later, we made an offer, which was far below the asking price. As the price was so low, we were afraid that they would laugh it off. Surprisingly, they didn't laugh at us. They renewed their offer instead. It was also much more than we could actually afford, but far less than the original asking price.
The next day, we got a disappointing message that another buyer offered a much higher price. Even so, we made up our minds to talk with the owners directly. We made our final offer, which was still thousands of dollars less than the other buyer 's bid. We knew it, yet we decided to have a try. Nobody knew if we could get it.

The McDonnells lived in a small brick house in Larchmont, a suburb of New York City. Jim was foreman of mail carriers at the post office where he had worked for 25 years. Married in 1960, he and Anne were childless.
On the evening of the eleventh anniversary of their marriage, carrying out the garbage, Jim McDonnell slipped on icy steps, and struck his head. A few days later, driving to work, he lost control of the car, hit a telephone pole, and banged his forehead against the windshield. The following day he fell off the stairs, and again he banged his head. Found unconscious, he was hospitalized for three days with a cerebral concussion(脑震荡). One day in the same month, Jim borrowed a friend's station wagon and drove to Kennedy Airport to pick up Anne's brother and family. When he returned the borrowed car at 10 p.m., he was unaware that the wallet containing his identification had slipped out of his pocket onto the floor of the car. After that, he was never seen again.
So what really happened to Anne's husband During his walk home, Jim had indeed blacked out(昏厥), losing all ability to remember who he was and where he lived. What happened then is unclear. The next thing he knew was that he was in downtown Philadelphia, a city he had never visited before. Seeing signs advertising the services of a James Peters, a real estate broker, Jim adopted James Peters as his own name. He had no past; his only reality was the present. James Peters got a Social Security card, which could be obtained at that time without showing a birth certificate, and took a job in a health club. He next worked at a cancer research institute, cleaning out animal cages. He also got a night-shift job at the P&P luncheonette, where he became well known for his omelets(煎蛋卷), as well as his kindness and good humor.

Twenty years ago, Chase Poust was only 7. On Sunday morning just before the Memorial Day, he, his dad Steven, and his 4-year-old sister Abigail, were out for a family boating trip on Florida's St. Johns River. Chase and Abigail were swimming at the back of the anchored boat while Steven was on deck (甲板) fishing.
It was a perfect outing—it was so peaceful and the colors of the deep blue sky, the light green river water and the mild late May sunshine mixed to create a magic scene. Off the shore lay quietly several cottages. Everything was sound until a strong current emerged and loosened Abigail's grasp and she let go of the boat. Instantly realizing his sister would be swept away, Chase let go of the boat as well to try and reach her. At the same time, Chase screamed at his father desperately.
Without thinking twice, Steven jumped into the water and swam towards the two kids with all his efforts. But after realizing he couldn't keep up with both kids, he was faced with a heartbroken decision. He told them he loved them very much because he wasn't sure what's going to happen. Steven tried his best to stick with both of his children. He wore himself out. But his little daughter was washed away from him. Directing Chase to swim to shore for help, Steven stayed behind, keeping as close as he could to Abigail as the life-vest that was keeping her above the waves floated further and further from his reach.
It was a tough go for the 7-year-old, but rather than attempting to swim all out, Chase wisely paced himself. Stopping to float or dog paddle when he was tired, he'd rest and then set off again. The current was going the opposite way of going to the boat and the shore, so it was very hard to swim that way for Chase.

My parents and I had just driven down the narrow mountain road from Marrakesh with all its sharp bends, and had finally arrived at Merzouga. Before us stretched the unending sand dunes(沙丘) that marked the beginning of the Sahara.
Our vehicle set off, quietly running over the sand and small stones. It wasn't long before we were surrounded by enormous sand dunes, towering above us on all sides. The wind was blowing grains of sand from the tops of the dunes, the sun was beating down hard and bright, and the sky was a deep shade of blue that I had never seen before. The wild beauty of the desert was about to reveal itself. There was not a plant to be seen. The desert appeared completely empty, which was calming and threatening at the same time.
Eventually, as the last rays of sunlight were falling on the sand, we arrived at our desert camp. Stars were already shining brightly in the darkening sky and it was getting cold with the approach of the night. I grabbed my bag and headed towards the warm campfire. I was starving and rushed to put a steak on the barbecue. We enjoyed two days in the camp with camel riding and campfire parties before we set off for Kenya.
A few days after our departure from the camp, we were very near to our rest camp in the Amboseli National Park. Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa, rose up over the plains before us. Tall grasses and trees dotted the plains, which were alive with the African wildlife. Giraffes, with their long necks, were pulling leaves from the highest branches. In the distance, elephants were eating grass, ears flapping lazily as they moved slowly over the plains.
The rest camp was in sight. Several huts made from brick settle across a large pool of water. The walls reflected the afternoon sun. My father, against my mother's advice, decided to drive through the pool of water that stretched across the dirt road.

A freezing downpour washed the street in front of the small-town bar. I sat gazing into the watery darkness, alone as usual. I had been in that old bar for half an hour, quietly drinking, when my thoughtful eyes finally focused on a medium-sized lump(一团) in a puddle(水洼) a hundred feet away. For another ten minutes, I looked out through the window trying to decide if the lump was an animal or just something.
The night before, a German dog named Shep had come into the bar begging for potato chips. He was starving and just the size of the lump in the puddle. Why should a dog lie in a cold puddle in the freezing rain I asked myself. The answer was simple: Either it wasn't a dog, or it was, he was too weak to get up.
The wound in my right shoulder ached all the way down my fingers. I didn't want to go out in the storm. Hey, it wasn't my dog. It was just a stray on a cold rainy night, a lonely drifter(流浪者). So was I, I thought, as I tossed(扔) down what was left of my drink and headed out the door.
He was lying in the three inches of water. When I touched him, he didn't move. I thought he was dead. I put my hands around his chest and raised him to his feet. He stood unsteadily, and his head hung like a weight at the end of his neck. His floppy ears were just hairless pieces of flesh dotted with open sores(伤口).
"Come on, Shep," I said, leading him to a corner next to the bar, where he lay on the cold cement and closed his eyes. A block away I could see the lights of a late-night convenience store. It was still open. I bought three cans of dog food and fed him. He couldn't swallow but poorly look at me. He was dying!

One summer vacation, I learned some kids volunteered as guide dog raisers for a guide dog training center. Then I also wanted to take part in it. My parents supported it.
After I filled out the application form to be a guide dog raiser, two of the training center's workers came to my house to meet me and my family. They said, "After the volunteer helps raise a guide dog puppy for a year, the dog needs to be returned to the training center. There the dog will receive a five-month professional guide-dog training. Then the dog will stay with a blind person and help with his or her life." The workers told us what a big responsibility it was to raise a guide dog puppy. And I promised I would do a great job.
We later got a call that our puppy was coming soon—a female yellow puppy. When Dad and I picked her up, I was glad. She was the prettiest dog I'd ever seen. Her name was Lisha. When I started working with Lisha, I learned right away how intelligent dogs are. Guide dog puppies seem to know they're special and were born to do special work. My main job was to help her grow, teach her basic house rules and how to get along with people, and let her learn about public places.
Lisha loved to ride in the car. I was allowed to take her anywhere a trained guide dog could go, including stores and buses. Lisha was a good listener. Whenever I felt I needed to talk to someone, Lisha was always there. She was a lovely puppy.
During the year, Lisha and my whole family developed a very close relationship. And we knew the day was coming when she would have to go back to the training center for the five-month professional guide-dog training. After that she would go to live with John, a blind man.

On the way back from work every evening, there would be a homeless man standing at the exit of the freeway. He looked to be in his late 40's but was probably a lot younger. His eyes were what struck me the most about him, they were brown and they had a sparkle. People say they can tell a lot from a person's eyes. It was certainly true in his case. He always waved at every car, he was always happy and smiling and sometimes almost dancing.
Every day after work I would remember to gather any spare change and quickly roll down my window and give him the coins. Occasionally the red light would be on for a minute and we would ask each other about our day. His answer would always be the same, "I'm blessed!". I knew what his answer was going to be every time, yet I would still ask. It amazed me that even in his situation of being homeless he was so positive, and his answer would remind me of how blessed I was. A single mother of four amazing kids, with a place to call home and with a job to provide for my kids.
Then one day I was called into my boss's office and was told that I was being laid off due to the economy. For the rest of that day, a feeling of worry engulfed(淹没) me. Needless to say that on my way home that day I was very sad and upset. I didn't remember to look for my spare change and keep it ready like I usually did. But there he was as always, as I turned the ramp(斜坡). He set his eyes on me, while still smiling and waving at others.

答案以及解析

答案：
After a quick breakfast, Kathy headed to the beach. Under no circumstances had Kathy expected the scenery to be so spectacular! With the sea wind blowing against her face, Kathy totally lost herself in the stunning views. After half an hour's leisure walk along the beach, Kathy returned to the house. "How do I spend the rest of the day " Kathy murmured to herself. Suddenly, the unfinished puzzle caught her attention. She felt a little excited and buried herself in it once again. Every time the shapes met, Kathy was overwhelmed with happiness. Soon, all that were left were a few gaps. She quickly put the remaining pieces into place. The puzzle was completed!
Appreciating the finished puzzle, she realized she hadn't thought of her cellphone for hours. Trying to preserve the image in her mind, she quietly started taking it apart rather than taking pictures to update about the trip. That, she thought, was just for me. Without the distractions from her cellphone, she found herself engaged in story sharing session with mom and daddy willingly. They spent a high-quality family time together. On arriving home, mom gave her cellphone back. This time, however, she had no intention to share but to keep all the great memories in her mind. (189 words)

答案：
Paragraph 1:
We went to the owners' home, only to find the other buyer visiting the owners too. He said that the price he offered was much higher than ours. He begged the owners to sell it to him, and then the owner asked the buyer, "Why do you want this house " "For investment," the buyer replied. "As it is near the city, I can rent it to earn money..." The owner thought for a while, looked at him and said, "I'm sorry, sir. I can't sell my house to you, because I am looking for someone who truly loves it, not just for money."
Paragraph 2:
The owner looked at us and said, "I decide to sell my house to you!" Seeing us sitting by the lake all those times, he knew how much we loved the place and that we'd appreciate the years of work they had put into their house. He realized he would make a loss by selling it to us, but it was worthwhile since we were the people they wanted to sell their house to. We were told to consider the difference in the price as "an early wedding present". That's how we found our house and how I learned that when people are kind, they are not strangers, but friends we haven't met yet.

答案：
About a month before Christmas 1985, colleagues noticed that Jim had grown unusually quiet and depressed. Something seemed to be turning in his mind. On December 22, Jim had fallen and banged his head. The next day at work he seemed distracted, and late that afternoon he had fallen again, striking his head. On December 24, he awoke feeling confused, yet delighted. After almost 15 years, he knew who he was! He was James A. McDonnell, Jr., of Larchmont, New York. His wife's name was Anne.
Anne had just returned home from Christmas Mass, where she lit candles and prayed for Jim. A light snow was falling, and she was in a hurry to leave for Christmas dinner at her sister's before the roads grew slick. Then the doorbell rang. "Oh my," she thought, "this is not a good time for a visitor." Anne opened the door—and saw a man with a full white beard. Immediately she recognized Jim. She couldn't speak.
To Jim, Anne looked a little older, but prettier too. His heart overflowed.
"Hello, Anne," he said.

答案：
An hour later, Chase swam to the shore, anyhow. Once on solid ground, he ran to the nearest cottage and called for help. Hearing Steven's desperate cries, people in the cottage rushed out immediately. Realizing what had happened, they sprang into action. They rushed to the bank of the river following Chase and paddled their boat instantly with rescue equipment towards the dad and daughter. Meanwhile, someone called the Rescue Department. Soon after, rescuers arrived. All of them did everything they could to carry out a thorough search.
Luckily, Steven and Abigail were found and rescued. After ensuring their safety, people breathed a sigh of relief. Steven was deeply moved and expressed his gratitude to all the rescuers with tears swirling in his eyes. Then he hugged Chase and Abigail tightly and couldn't help weeping with joy. He couldn't be prouder of his son. It was the bravery, calmness and determination of the pint-sized superhero that changed everything. It was likely to be one Memorial Day the family would never forget.

答案：
Then, our car was truly stuck in the mud. We tried hard to push the car out of the mud, but in vain. We needed two boards long enough to help the wheels move. Luckily, we were not far away from the camp. We called the manager of the camp for help. After a few moments, two local men drove over with necessary equipment and pushed us free. Thankfully, with the local men guiding, we drove on to the parking lot next to our hut.
We got out of the car. We were amazed to find many monkeys jumping up and down in the trees. After carrying our suitcases and boxes of food into the hut, I returned to the car and fetched more possessions. It was then that I noticed a small grey monkey sitting on a tree a few metres away and eating a banana. "So cute," I thought to myself, until I realized it was my banana that he was eating! What an experience!

答案：
The local vet was still at his office, so I loaded the poor creature into a taxi and headed there. After a quick check on the poor dog, the vet shook his head with regret. He promised me he would try his utmost but Shep was unlikely to get through it unless there is a miracle. While the vet treated the sores carefully, I tried to drop water in his mouth and fed him with food bit by bit. I never gave up hope of getting him saved. Many times I would caress his neck, whispering into his ears to encourage him to hold on. He was so weak that he had to stay in the vet's.
Three days later, when I opened the door of the vet's, Shep welcomed me with wild enthusiasm. He wagged his tail from left to right as if to say "Thank you". He was gaining strength and improving for the better. Tears filling my eyes, I knew all our efforts were worthwhile. Soon, the dog recovered from severe sores and I adopted him and took him home. Once in a while, I would go to that bar with Shep, a drink for myself and a serve of potato chips for him. What would have happened if I hadn't stepped out on that stormy night Care and kindness really made a difference, to both of us.

答案：
Para 1:
When it was time for her to leave, we took Lisha on her last car ride with us. When we reached the training center, I dropped her off with the professional trainer. Sad though I was, I knew she was going to help people in need. Five months later, I got news that Lisha was passing each course for a trained guide dog. One day, I received a call from the center announcing that Lisha was to graduate as a guide dog and that she would be placed with John.
Para 2:
I was invited to present Lisha to John on her graduation day. Getting up early, my parents drove me to the training center. How excited to see Lisha again! She looked bigger and was happy to see us. I presented her to John, who thanked me for raising Lisha. I felt good, because I had played a part in helping John. As we left, I looked back and Lisha was looking straight at me. Then she looked up at John. She knew her job, and I knew they would make a great team.

答案：
I'd hoped to catch the green light, but I missed it. While I was waiting for the red light to turn, all I could think of was "How can I provide for my kids How can I pay rent What am I going to do " Just then he strolled over to my car. He had a big smile and looked me straight in the eyes and said "today I will give you a dollar". He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a dollar bill. I was blown away, bursting into tears.
What he gave me was more than a dollar bill. He taught me a valuable lesson. No matter what material things are taken from you, no one can take away your choice to be joyful. My ride home was smooth sailing. I had lost my job and had no savings, but I knew I was blessed! Every time I'm faced with challenges, I always think of the homeless man's valuable lesson and remember that I am blessed. Then, I can get up courage to overcome the difficulties and misfortunes.
