I hurried into the store to get Christmas gifts. Suddenly, I saw a little boy holding a lovely doll. He kept touching her hair. I watched him turn to a woman and say, “Are you sure I don’t have enough money?” She said yes and told the boy not to go anywhere before she came back. Then she left.
The boy continued to hold the doll. I asked the boy who the doll was for. He said, “It’s the doll that my sister wanted so badly for Christmas. She just knew that Santa would bring it.” I told him that Santa was going to bring it. He said, “No, Santa can’t go where my sister is. I have to give the doll to my mom to take it to her.”
I asked him where his sister was. He looked at me sadly and said, “She’s gone to heaven. My daddy said that Mom was going to be there with her.” My heart nearly stopped beating. Then the boy said, “I told my daddy to tell her not to go there until I got back.” He took out some pictures of him and said, “I want my mom to take these with her so she’ll never forget me. I love my mom so much that I wish she didn’t have to leave me, but Daddy said that she needed to be with my sister.”
The boy lowered his head. While he was not looking, I reached into my purse and asked him, “Shall we count that money again?” He grew excited and said, “Yes, I just know it has to be enough.” So I put my money with his and we began to count it. He said, “Thank you for giving me enough money.” He continued, “I just asked God to give me enough money to buy this doll, and he heard my prayer.”
Soon the woman came back and I left. I remembered a story I had read in the newspaper several days earlier about a drunk driver who hit a car. A little girl was killed and her mother was in serious condition. Two days later, I read the news that the mother had died.

Do you want to have a doll that can talk with you? In the book The Ventriloquist’s Daughter, a girl named Liur gets a doll like this. But it doesn’t always make her happy.
Lin Man-Chiu, a writer from Taiwan, wrote the book. The book tells a loving story about Liur and her father.
Liur loses her mother at a young age. Her grandfather sends her father to a school in the US. Five years later, he comes back with a doll named Carola. This doll is quite special — it can speak like a person! However, Carola makes a lot of problems for the family.
After reading this book, I thought Liur and her father were unlucky. In fact, this story is about the writer’s own unhappy childhood. She had six sisters. But her grandfather wanted a grandson. Life was hard for her father, so he didn’t live with her and her sisters for a very long time. The writer didn’t like her father when she was young. But now she forgives him, because she understands her father had a hard life at that time.
After I learned this, I knew — everyone has demons (心魔) in their hearts, but we should do our best to defeat (击败) them.
1.The writer of the book The Ventriloquist’s Daughter is______ .
A.Liur B.Carola
C.Helen D.Lin Man-Chin
2.Carola is special because______ .
A.it is a doll B.it can talk
C.it can read books D.it looks like a boy
3.The third paragraph (段落) is mainly talking about______ .
A.the main story of the book B.how to write a book
C.how popular the book is D.describing a doll’s life
4.The underlined word “forgives” probably means______ in Chinese.
A.敬佩 B.超越 C.原谅 D.减轻
