【題目】 I saw the most beautiful thing ever one morning. It was early with a slight frost on the ground, and I was walking on grass down to the farm—my mind on the daily routines.

Suddenly a shining flash erupted straight from the ground about 15 feet in front of me, and shot up into the sky. It was so brilliant, clear and clean. I thought the only thing that could make such a flash must be a diamond—maybe someone had lost some kind of jewelry. Or some kind of lightning strikes—so bright. I waited to see if it repeated but it didn’t.

I walked slowly towards it. There was nothing to see. I stared down at the grass, searching for gold or some kind of metal. Nothing. So I dropped down really close and there it was! A tiny spider’s web, delicately hanging between grass, flashing in a number of colors. The rising sun had caught the exact angle of the dewdrops (露珠), and that light had exploded up into the sky.

It was unbelievable, such a powerful flash from something so small and fragile, and I would have destroyed it beneath my feet. It was as if the unseen world was giving me a heads-up. Hello! Look what’s around you. I’ve never forgotten that moment.

So take some time to notice the wonder of nature that most of us never even see. So much beauty all around us if we would only take the time. Look at the tiny flowers that cover playing fields—we walk all over them without a second glance. The colors of practically any flower on the earth are breathtaking and all natural—if we would only notice. Take the time and discover from nature one secret beautiful thing that you can keep in your heart. Take a picture. It’s what life really consists of. And it’s free.

【1】What actually caused the flash?

A.A diamond.B.The lightning.

C.A piece of metal.D.A spider’s web.

【2】Why did the writer feel the discovery unforgettable?

A.The flash is very splendid.B.The spider’s web is mysterious.

C.The shining object was priceless.D.Something small touches her soul.

【3】What does the writer try to convey in the last paragraph?

A.Appreciate the beauty of nature.B.Be considerate towards the weak.

C.Find time to play outdoors.D.Keep a secret deep in heart.

When an important holiday comes, I usually think of what gifts to buy or prepare for my family members. It is the act itself rather than the thing you buy that 【1】(matter). Either a small present, a text message or a phone call can mean a lot to the receivers. 【2】, I had never got anything from my son, who is a university student. Parents never forget to celebrate their children’s birthday, but their children seem to be very 【3】 (forget). They seldom do something in return.
