2020年公共英语一级阅读理解题:(八)

来源 :华课网校 2020-04-23

  Dear Mom,

  Time flies quickly. Two months has gone by since I joined this boarding school. Everything is going well. During my first month here, I was like a fish out of water. I came to realize how many things I should thank you for.

  On the cold winter days, I have to get up early almost every morning to fetch hot water. I began to feel ashamed that I never said ‘thank you” every time you prepared (准备) hot water for me each morning on winter days before I got up.

  I am no longer that girl who was often unable to find her books in her bedroom. It used to take me a lot of time to collect all the books for the day’s classes. But I have gotten over that bad habit now. And now I know how much time you used to take to collect my books every evening.

  I have learned to do the laundry on my own now. I came to realize that washing clothes is a boring job, especially on winter days. Sometimes there is no hot water and I have to wash my clothes with cold water by hand.

  I came to know how grateful (感激的) I should be to have you as my mom. Thank you, Mom.

  Yours,

  Silvia
