Ever since I was little, my favorite season was winter. I loved to play in the snow and enjoy the hot chocolate.   1  , winter never gave me the special gift of snow on my birthday. I would ask my grandmother  2  it didn’t snow on my birthday. She would laugh and tell me I asked too many questions.   3  one day, she promised that she would make it snow on my next birthday.
That year,   4  my birthday, my grandmother died. I was sad but angry because she had promised to make it snow. The day of my sixth birthday, I woke up and ran to the window,   5  to see just one snowflake. But there was no snow. I felt mad at my grandmother. She had broken a promise.
By my sixteenth birthday, I   6  all hope of getting my snow, even though I still wished for 7 . During my party, I stayed with my friends and family and was truly happy. I   8  the best time ever! Then I saw the white snow   9  down all around. I was so excited that I ran around screaming and laughing. My friends all laughed   10  me, but I didn’t care.
When I   11  home, my grandpa said he had a gift for me. I was   12  because he had given me a gift. It was a small white box, which looked old. I opened it. There was a crystal snowflake(水晶雪花) with a card that   13  , “Happy Birthday.”
How could this be? My grandpa said it was my grandmother’s final   14  on my “sweet sixteenth”. I cried.
I was   15  that my smiling grandmother angel was and had been watching over me.

American people like to say “Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them. People of many countries do so, too. It is a very good habit(習(xí)慣).
You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you the salt on the table, when someone walking ahead of you keeps the door open for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Think you” is used not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters.
“Excuse me” is another short sentence they use. When you hear someone say so behind you, you know that somebody wants to walk past you without touching you. It’s not polite to break others when they are talking. If you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking.

One day, a man found the cocoon (繭) of a butterfly and he brought it home.
A few days later, the man saw a small hole in the cocoon. He sat and watched for several hours as a butterfly struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it stopped.
So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a knife and cut a bigger hole in the cocoon. The butterfly came out of the cocoon but it had a weak body and small, thin wings. The butterfly didn’t start to fly.
In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬行) around with a weak body and thin wings. It was never able to fly.
The man acted with kindness but he didn’t understand that he had done something wrong. When a butterfly crawls out of the cocoon, it must struggle. The hard work of getting out of the cocoon forces the fluid(液體) from the butterfly’s body into wings. It helps the butterfly be ready to fly. If the butterfly never has to force itself out of the cocoon, its wings never get the fluid and it can never fly.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our lives. If we lived our lives without any problems, we would never learn or grow. We would not be as strong as we could have been and we would never fly.
So, the next time you are faced with a challenge or a problem, remember the butterfly.
Struggle a little – then fly!
小題1:Why did the man cut a bigger hole in the cocoon?
A．To catch the butterfly easily.
B．To play with the butterfly.
C．To help the butterfly come out.
D．To make the butterfly stronger.
小題2:What happened after the butterfly got out of the cocoon?
A．It died soon.
B．It had a strong body and wings.
C．It could fly after a few days.
D．It couldn’t fly during the rest of its life.
小題3:Why couldn’t the butterfly fly?  Because ___________ .
A．it got out of its cocoon without struggle
B．nobody had taught it to fly
C．a(chǎn)ll newborn butterflies could not fly
D．the man broke its wings
小題4:What does the writer want to tell us?
A．Kindness in our lives can help us grow.
B．Try to be ready to help others.
C．Without other’s help we can still succeed.
D．Hard work leads to success.
小題5:Which is the best title for the passage?
A．The Old Man and the ButterflyB．Life Struggle
