Sally was a student. It was going to be her mother’s birthday. She wanted to buy her a present that would be nice and useful but not expensive.

A week before her mother’s birthday, she went shopping after a quick and simple lunch. When she had been looking for half an hour, she found a shop that was selling cheap umbrellas, and decided to take a black one, since her mother had lost hers the month before.

She thought, “You could carry that when you are wearing clothes of any color.” So she decided to buy a lovely black umbrella and took it back to the school with her until her classes were over.

On her way back home in the train that evening she felt hungry because she had such a small lunch that she went along to the dining car for another sandwich and a cup of coffee. She had left the black umbrella above her seat in the compartment(車廂), but when she got back, it had gone! When she had left the compartment, there had been no other passengers (乘客) in it, but now there were three.

Sally began to cry when she saw that the umbrella was no longer there. The other passengers felt very sorry for her and asked what the matter was. She told them that the black umbrella she had bought for her mother was gone, and that she had to get out at the next station. After the three other passengers heard it, they asked her for her mother’s address so that they could send the umbrella to her if someone had taken it by mistake, and brought it back after Sally had got out of the train.

The next week, Sally heard from her mother. It said, “Thank you very much for your lovely presents, but why did you send me three black umbrellas?”

1.Did Sally’s mother lose an umbrella?

2.What color was the umbrella Sally bought?

3.Why did Sally feel hungry on her way back home in the train that evening?

4.How many umbrellas did her mother receive?

5.Who sent those umbrellas, do you think?

A Little Coaching (指導)

I always felt nervous at the running race. I was too thin to be an athlete. So when our class needed a ______ in the two mile race around the lake, I hoped nobody would notice me.

I hid under a ______ when our teacher Bronto called the names of the runners. I got more nervous when I heard he called, “Noah! Where’s Noah? He’s in this race!”

He saw me under the tree and shouted, “Noah, we ______ a boy to run the two mile race.” He pushed me to the starting line(線). I pleaded(懇求) with him. “I don’t know the way around the lake!”

“It’s not a problem. Just ______ Craig and you’ll know the way.” Bronto smiled. Craig was the fastest runner in our class. Then Bronto said, “For the last hundred meters, just throw your head back and run.”

I stood next to Craig and trembled(顫抖). Then I heard the gun and sixteen of us started to run. I ran closely behind Craig.

But gradually(逐步地), the distance(距離) between Craig and me became wider.

It was ______. I felt very tired. My energy was spent. I was about to give up. But then I looked ahead(向前) and ______ only three boys were in front of me. The crowd was shouting, but I could hear Bronto shouting, “Run!”

However, the best prize that I got was ______. That year I discovered I could do a lot of things if I believe myself and put my energy into them.
