be spending without their father, who passed away several months ago. Now the two older children were sick
with the flu. I hurried around, trying to care for each child:thermometers, medicine, juice, bread. I found the
children had run out of fruits. But what almost broke me down was that I only had $2.50 left-and this should
last until the end of the month.
That"s when I heard the phone ring. It was the secretary from our former church,and she told me that they
had been thinking about us and had something to give us. I called at the church on my way to the market just
before lunch. The church secretary met me at the door and handed me two currency notes (流通券), each
worth $20. I was so moved that I cried.
Then I drove on to a store near our home for something needed for the children. The things I picked up cost
me a little over $14.00, and I handed the cashier (收银员) one note. She took it and looked at it for a long time.
I thought something might be wrong and told her that I was a single parent and how I got it. With tears in her
eyes, the cashier said that morning she had prayed (祈祷) to help someone, and I gave her the chance. She
added a turkey to my items (货物), took out two $20 bills and paid for my items. Once more I was moved to
tears.
As I walked to my car, I was still moved by the stranger"s love and realized that God loves my family. He
shows us his love through others" hands.

where a railway crossed a stagnant (发臭的) pond. For 30 feet there was nothing but the widely-spaced
wooden sleepers under our wheels, and nothing to stop us from falling into the steaming bot below if we
overbalanced. Right under the bridge lay the body of a dead cow. I watched Mat as hc approached the bridge
and rode straight over, without even slowing down. I stopped.
"What"s up?" he shouted, from the other side.
"I"m not riding over that thing. If I fail, I"ll be there with that cow!"
"There"s nothing to it. I just did it, didn"t I?"
"You"re stronger and taller. My feet can"t touch the ground. You do it for me!"
Mat said strength didn"t come into it and rode off,leaving me staring down into the sickly brown soup. He
would be waiting for me around the next corner, but I knew he would oive me at least ar hour before coming
to help. The sun burned my face; sweat ran off my forehead into my eyes and stuck my shirt to my body;
mosquitoes flew into my mouth when I breathed. To stand still in this place was to kill myself; anyway, to sit
around waiting for Mat to help was more than my feminist pride could take. I rode back along the track a f"ew
hundred yards to get a good run-up (助跑) and over I went. Mat was right: all the obstacles were in my mind.
B. she found a dead cow under the bridge
C. she was afraid of failing off the bridge
D. she didn"t know how to cross the bridge
B. He felt she should overcome her fear by herself.
C. He didn"t believe she was really afraid.
D. He knew she was too proud to accept his help.
B. The mud on the wheels.
C. The dirty water in the pond.
D. The author"s food for the journey.
B. a friend in need is a friend indeed
C. you can"t make something out of nothing
D. well begun is half done

My Christmas 1 contained several people that claimed they wanted nothing, but I knew their feelings would be hurt 2 I didn"t buy them anything, so gift buying was 3 but fun.
