The Best Worst Thanksgiving It was Thanksgiving morning.This year the Li family was traveling from their home in Virginia to Grandma and Grandpa Li's house in Florida.Nine-year-old Zara Li had been excited about the trip.But she found out that their beloved dog，Tucker，had to stay at a doghouse.Tucker was her best friend in the entire world.On the way to Florida，she already missed it.
In the car seat next to her，Zara's little sister，Piper，kicked her feet and sang the alphabet song.Suddenly，Piper reached over and grabbed the dog toy off Zara's lap.
"Quit it，Piper!"Zara cried.She tried to pull it back，but Piper held on tight.All of a sudden，cloud of white stuffing flew in the air with a ripping sound."You are such a baby!"she screamed，causing Piper to burst into tears.
"Zara."Mom sighed，"Piper didn't ruin Tucker's toy on purpose.She's only four years old.You're the big sister，so be nice."
Zara bit her lip and stared out of the window.She was always getting into trouble for not being nice enough to Piper.Her parents didn't get that Piper was wrong either.Sometimes Zara pretended that she didn't have a sister at all.This was turning into the worst Thanksgiving ever.
The way to Grandma and Grandpa's house was dark and stormy.Suddenly，Dad pulled the car over."Uh-oh!It looks like we're not going anywhere，"Mom announced.Zara saw a giant oak tree completely blocking the road.
"The wind must have knocked it down，"declared Dad.
"Grandma and Grandpa's house is only two blocks away."Mom replied."We can walk the rest of the way.A little rain never hurt anyone."
They all climbed out of the car.Wind and rain whipped Zara's hair into her face.It was hard to keep her eyes open against the wind."You'd better hold onto my hand，Piper."Zara cautioned，but Piper didn't respond.Zara looked behind her，but Piper wasn't there.She wasn't with Mom or Dad，either."Mom!Dad!Where's Piper？"Zara shouted in panic."Piper!Piper!"everyone called.The wind seemed to blow their voices away.Then Zara heard a strange sound coming from the bushes nearby.

【答案】She pushed through the branches of the bushes.It seemed to come from underneath a big，leafy branch.Zara pulled it aside，finding Piper crawled beneath it.Zara grabbed her sister and hugged her tight.She felt as though an enormous rock had rolled off her chest."Why did you crawl under the tree？"Zara asked."Look!"Piper exclaimed，pointing to a tiny，barking puppy.One of the puppy's back legs was pinned beneath the branch.They were able to lift it free.Zara held the puppy gently in her arms to keep it warm.
Finally，they arrived at Grandma and Grandpa's house with the tiny，injured puppy.Grandma and Grandpa were so happy to see them that they pulled everyone into an enormous group hug though they were soaking wet.The delicious scents of Thanksgiving dinner filled the air.Dad and Mom set the table for dinner.""Your grandfather and I have been thinking about adopting a dog."Zara smiled and sighed happily.This had definitely turned out to be the best worst Thanksgiving ever.

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.
