One early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again. My interest was aroused only by the fact that the word “Poems” appeared in big, hot pink letters.
“Is it good?” I asked her.
“Yeah,” she answered. I leaned forward.
“Patty Poem,’” she read the title. Who is Patty? I wondered. The poem began:
She never puts her toys away,
Just leaves them scattered where they lay …
The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:
When she grows and gathers poise,
I’ll miss her harum-scarum noise,
And look in vain for scattered toys
And I’ll be sad
A terrible sorrow (痛苦) washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock. “It’s you, honey,” My mother said sadly.
To my mother, the poem revealed a parent’s feeling when her child grows up and leaves. To me, the “she” in the poem was horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible I burst (突然) out crying.
“What’s wrong?” my mother asked.
“Oh, Mama,” I cried. “I don’t want to grow up ever!”
She smiled. “Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll still love you, okay?”
“Okay,” I was still weeping (流泪). My scare has gone. But I could not help thinking about that silly poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was confused. It all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple I could obviously understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated (着迷) by the idea of poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.
I have since fallen in love with other poems, but “Patty Poem” remains my poem. After all, “Patty Poem” gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my spirits, but because it was the one that hurt me the most.
1.Why was the writer attracted by the book Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again?
A. It was a thick enough book. B. Something on its cover caught her eye.
C. Her mother was reading it with interest. D. It has a meaningful title.
2.The writer’s mother liked to read “Patty Poem” because______.
A. it reflected her own childhood B. it was written in simple language
C. it was composed by a famous poet D. it gave her an idea of what would happen
3.It can be concluded from the passage that “Patty Poem” leads the writer to _______.
A. discover the power of poetry B. recognize her love for puzzles
C. find her eagerness to grow up D. experience great homesickness

One day, early in the morning on my way to work, I saw a little girl carrying a small Cambridge schoolbag. I could imagine that she must be proud of her schoolbag. The bag is designed for students, which can hold a lot of things, such as textbooks, pens and pencils, snacks and water! Students just carry it on their shoulders, and it is easy for them. I was really amazed by the wisdom of businessmen.
I remembered I had a green cloth bag, which was very rough, but strong. At that time I was short, so my mom made the bag rope shorter. After eating all the meals prepared by my mother, I said to her, “I will go to school now. Bye!” I ran to school with my classmates. At that time, this schoolbag was so light. When I jumped, it jumped. All things in this bag had a collision (碰撞.. They gave out cheerful sounds all the way along. At the time I was so happy.
As I grew older, the schoolbag became heavier and heavier. My green schoolbag could not be used any longer. The bag was worn down, the mouth was opened, and finally it came to an end. My mother bought me another bag, and it was very big. I liked the Mickey Mouse pattern. The bag had a few pockets and both sides of the bag could carry a bottle. It was convenient! I was happy to go out every day with the new bag. Five or six miles of the trip to school seemed as if it were a few steps away. That year I was 12 years old.
