1．    In a world where bad news seems to be everywhere，it's always refreshing to hear stories of kindness.One such story comes from a small town in the United States where a 25-year-old man named Jeremy McGreen went above and beyond to help a neighbor in need.
   Jeremy McGreen，the owner of a roofing and construction company，had been eyeing Jane Goodall's roof for quite some time.The tiles were cracked and worn，and it was only a matter of time before they would start to leak.Every time he drove past her house，he assumed that another group of repairmen had taken on the job.However，as weeks wore on，the roof continued to worsen without any sign of repair.
   "I had it in my mind that if no one steps up to help this lonely lady in our community，I'd love to，" said McGreen to his wife.
   One day，Jeremy stopped by Jane's house.He knocked on Jane's door and introduced himself，explaining that he had noticed the state of her roof and and was concerned about the potential damage it could cause.He offered to repair the roof for free and promised her that he would do an excellent job，and he even offered to show her some of his previous work as proof of his expertise.
   However，Jane Goodall politely turned him down because she did not like to accept charity and told McGreen that she had applied for a government grant （补助金） to fix the roof.She promised to hire him once the grant application was approved.
   Unfortunately，the approval never came.

2．    A dandelion（蒲公英）kept in my dictionary always reminds me of my lunchtimes with my mother.
   When I was in the third grade，I was picked to be the princess in the school play，and for weeks my mother had practised my lines（台词）so hard with me.But no matter how easily I delivered them at home，as soon as I stepped onstage，every word disappeared from my head.Finally，my teacher took me aside.She explained that she had written a narrator's（旁白）part to the play，and asked me to switch roles.
   I didn't tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day.But she sensed my pain，and instead of suggesting we practice my lines，she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard.
   It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine（藤蔓）was turning green.Under the huge trees，we could see yellow dandelions popping through the grass in bunches，as if a painter had touched our landscape with a little bit of gold.I watched my mother casually bend down by one of the dandelions. "I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds，" she said，suddenly pulling a flower up by its roots. "From now on，we'll have only roses in this garden."
   "But I like dandelions，" I protested（抗议）. "All flowers are beautiful---even dandelions." My mother looked at me seriously. "Yes，every flower has its own beauty，doesn't it？" she asked thoughtfully.I nodded，feeling pleased that I had won her over. "And that is true of people too，" she added. "Not everyone can be a princess.Hence，there is no shame in that."
   Relieved that she had sensed my pain，I started to cry when I told her what had happened.She listened and smiled.

3．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
   At the center of the mall was the perfect Santa with a gentle manner and a real white beard.My six -year-old granddaughter，Leah，jumped from foot to foot as we waited in line for her turn to sit on his lap.
   "I don't know what to say，"Leah said，raising her neck around the kids in front of her.
   "Sure you do，"her mother，Lcanne，said."It's Santa.He's already your friend.You'll do just fine."
   "He'll ask you what you want for Christmas."I said."And you just tell him."
   We'd gone over and over the toys she'd ask for.Her mother didn't want surprises!Leah repeated the list.But a minute later，she inserted new toys she'd just spotted at the mall.
   "I've got an idea，"said Leanne，digging into her purse as the line inched（缓慢移动） forward."Let's write down your requests so you won't forget them."I couldn't help but laugh.Going to see Santa was such an important appointment for a six-year-old.No child should have any worries bigger than that.But the night before，on the news，I'd seen a village in the Middle East that had come under fire.Many of the wounded were children just like our Leah.Looking around the mall full of magical decorations and happy shoppers I felt safe，as safe as anyone could be.Everyone in the world should have that kind of security，especially at Christmas.
   "Okay，"Leanne said."Now you've got everything you want written down here.If you get nervous you can just give the note to Santa."
   Leah nodded and took the list.She read out loud，"A Chia Pet，Moon Sand and Aquadoodle."
   "Why don't you add a fourth request，Leah，"I heard myself say."Ask for peace on Earth."My daughter looked a little surprised by my suggestion.
   "What's peace on Earth，Grandpa？"Leah asked.
   "Peace on Earth means all the people in the world would get along.That's the true meaning of Christmas."Leah nodded seriously."Yes，"she agreed.
