Test 24
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
In this age of Internet chat,videogames and reality television,there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied.Yet despite the competition,my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories.She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest,a competition which she won last year.
As a writer,I know about winning contests—and about losing them.I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection letter from the publisher.I also know the pressure of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories.What if she doesn’t win the contest again? That’s the strange thing about being a parent.So many of our own past scars and destroyed hopes can resurface in our children.
A revelation(启示) came last week when I asked her,“Don’t you want to win again?” “No,” she replied,“I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”
I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously(自发地) told them.Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall,I offered suggestions for characters,conflicts and endings for her tales.The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music lesson.I_had_turned_her_contest_into_my_contest_without_even_realizing_it.
