Sarah's grandma had been practicing yoga for more than 50 years.She could stand on her hands and pull her body into a ball.But Sarah thought she would never be as flexible as her grandma did."You need patience for Yoga,Sarah."said grandma.
Sarah's school was holding a yoga contest.Sarah wanted to make her grandma proud.She kept practicing.Mountain pose.Standing still wasn't that hard.She moved to her hands and knees and arched her back.Cat pose.These were easy,but the competition would be harder.
She lay on her belly and pushed up on her hands.Cobra pose.Her arms soon got tired and she sank to the floor.She turned to Grandma."It's hard,Grandma."Sarah said,"How did you get to be so strong?""Patience" Grandma smiled.
The next morning,Sarah was a frog.The pose made her thighs hurt and she wanted to stop.Then she remembered her grandma's words.She took a deep breath and held the pose longer.
Sarah practiced a new pose every day.But first she went through the poses she had practiced the days before.She started to feel stronger.Her arms and legs stopped shaking.
The day of the yoga contest arrived.On the bus,Sarah's stomach whirled like a summer wind.What if she couldn't hold any poses?When the bus stopped at the gym,her heart was beating wildly.
It is time to begin,"said their teacher."Your first pose will be Eagle."Sarah curled her left leg around her right leg.She bent her arms,winding one around the other.She reminded herself,Focus!
"Triangle Pose."Sarah stood with her legs apart and arms at her sides.She slowly bent to the right.She then saw Grandma among the audience.Patience.
Camel pose.Bridge Pose.Bow pose,All went smoothly."Your last pose is the Wheel."said their teacher.Sarah lay on her back with her knees bent,took a deep breath and pushed hard to raise her stomach towards the ceiling.A few more seconds and she would succeed.

1.Jenny was the only child in her home.She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily.
She couldn't help weeping sorrowfully when she thought of the scolding from her mother.Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours,she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat,but it was not even possible for her,since she had nothing with her.She stood beside a stand for a while,watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business.However,with no money in hand,she sighed and had to leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, "Hey,girl,you want to have the noodles?
"Oh,yes…,but I don't have money on me…" she replied.
"That's nothing.I'll treat you today," said the man. "Come in."
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles,whose smell was so attractive.
As she was eating,Jenny cried silently.
"What is it?" asked the man kindly.
"Nothing,actually I was just touched by your kindness!" said Jenny as she wiped her tears. "Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles,while my mother,drove me out of the house.She showed no care for me.She is so merciless compared to a stranger!!"
Hearing the words,the seller smiled, "Girl,do you really think so?I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot.But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby.Can you number the times she cooked for you?Have you expressed your gratitude to her?"
Jenny sat there,speechless and numb with shock?she remembered Mother's familiar face and weathered hands. "Why did I not think of that?A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel indebted,but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me."
On the way home,Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

2.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I grew up in a poor family with six brothers,three sisters,my father and mother.We had little money and few goods,but plenty of love and attention.I was happy and energetic.I understood that no matter how poor a person was,he could still afford a dream.
My dream was athletics.By the time I was sixteen,I could throw a ninety-mile-per-hour fastball and hit anything moving on the football field.And I was so lucky that my high-school coach was Ollie Jarvis,who not only believed in me,but often told me "Dream is priceless".However,when I was about to get off the ground,one particular incident happened,which almost ruined my long-held dream.
It was the summer holiday in senior two and a friend recommended me for a summer job.I was offered ﹩12.25 per hour.Compared with the average ﹩3.5,that was a big sum.I was so excited,because this meant a chance for money in my pocket,certainly money for a new bike and new clothes,and the start of savings for a house for my mojye.air.The prospect(前景)of the job was inviting,and I wanted to jump at the opportunity.
Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball training to handle the work schedule.I didn't dare to tell my coach,I thought of the advice my mother often gave me when I lacked courage, "If you make your bed,you have to lie in it. "I decided to talk to my coach in person.After all,my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his disappointment to me.

3. One day,when I was a first-year student in high school,I saw a kid from my class walking home from school.His name was Kris.It looked like he was carrying all of his books.I thought to myself,"Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday?He must really be a nerd(书呆子)."
I had quite a weekend planned(parties and a football game with my friends),so I shrugged my shoulders and went on.As I was walking,I saw a gang of kids running toward him.They ran at him,knocking all his books out of arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt.His glasses went flying,and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him.He looked up,and I saw terrible sadness in his eyes.
My heart went out to him.So I jogged over to him,and as he crawled around looking for his glasses,I saw tears in his eyes.As I handed him his glasses,I said,"They are bad guys!They really should be punished."He looked at me and said,"Hey,thanks!"There was a big smile on his face.It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude.
I helped him pick up his books and asked him where he lived.As it turned out,he lived near me,so I asked him why I had never seen him before.He said he had gone to a private school before.I would have never hung out with a private school kid before,but we talked all the way home,and I carried his books.
