| You just don’t get me!
[Mum is sitting in the living room, worried． The clock reads 10:27 pm． The son runs through the door, out of breath．] Son: (breathing quickly) I’m back．．． Mum: Look at the time! Do you remember your promise? Son: (in a low voice) Yes, I promised to be back before 9 tonight． But．．． Mum: (interrupting) A deal is a deal! The promise wasn’t kept, so you can’t stay out late next time． Son: Mum, please listen．．． I was heading back at 8:30． Mum: Then why are you late? Son: On my way back, I realised that my phone was at Jiacheng’s house． I had to go back to get it． Mum: Why did it take that long to get your phone? Son: Halfway back, I noticed an old woman under a street lamp． She was wearing a thin blouse and it was cold． She looked pale． I asked her if she needed help． She said she was lost． Mum: So you sent her home? Son: No! She couldn’t tell me her address． Mum: Then what did you do? Son: I checked and saw that a yellow band was attached to her wrist． It had her information on it． But I couldn’t call her family without my phone． So I gave her my jacket and took her to the nearest police station． I waited with her until she was taken home by a policewoman． After that I ran to pick up my phone and came home． Mum: Oh, what a night! I’m sorry for being cross with you． But why didn’t you phone me from the police station? I was so worried! Son: Oh, I didn’t think of that．．． Sorry, Mum．．． Mum: Now I understand． I’m very proud of you． |
| 你就是不明白我！
[妈妈坐在客厅里，神情焦虑。时钟显示晚上10点27分。儿子气喘吁吁地跑进门来。] 儿子：（急促呼吸）我回来了…… 妈妈：看时间！你还记得答应的事吗？ 儿子：（小声）记得，我答应今晚九点前回来。但是…… 妈妈：（打断）说干就干！这承诺可没兑现，下次可别再在外面玩到这么晚了。 儿子：妈妈，请听我说……我本来打算8点半就回去。 妈妈：那你为什么迟到？ 儿子：在回家的路上，我才发现手机在贾城家。我得回去拿。 妈妈：怎么花了这么久才拿到手机？ 儿子：走着走着，我看见路灯下有个老妇人。她穿着薄薄的衬衫，冷得发抖，脸色苍白。我问她需要帮忙吗？她说自己迷路了。 妈妈：所以你让她回家了？ 儿子：没有！她连地址都告诉我不了。 妈妈：那你做了什么？ 儿子：我检查了一下，发现她手腕上戴着一条黄色的腕带，上面有她的信息。 但没有手机我没法联系她的家人，于是把外套递给她，带她去了最近的警察局。我陪她一直等到女警把她送回家，然后赶紧跑回家拿手机。 妈妈：哎呀，真是糟心的一夜！我真为你生气而难过。可你干嘛不直接从警局给我打电话？我担心得要命！儿子：哎呀，我真没想到……对不起，妈妈…… 妈妈：现在我明白了。我为你感到非常骄傲。 |

2．A deal is a deal! 一诺千金！（教材P21）

| 从痛苦到收获
2019年10月21日 亲爱的日记，我度过了非常糟糕的一天。我参加了篮球队的选拔，但教练说我身高不够。这一直是我的梦想，从小就是如此！我练习了很长时间，但今天一切都结束了。我感到非常难过…… 2023年9月17日亲爱的日记： 1 我刚翻出四年前的日记本，时光飞逝啊！那时我因身高不足而未能入选篮球队，感到无比沮丧。读到那些令人心碎的文字时，我不禁莞尔。篮球曾是我生命中最重要的事。但此后不久，一切便发生了改变。 2 当时的失败让我深受打击，朋友们都十分担忧。“为什么不尝试其他运动，比如游泳或滑雪呢？”我最好的朋友建议道。起初，我游泳只是为了转移注意力。但很快，我便完全爱上了这项运动。如今，我已赢得多项比赛，并结交了许多朋友。我的人生轨迹因此发生了转变。 3 以全新的视角回顾我的成长历程，体会其中的酸甜苦辣，这令人欣慰。成长之路从来都不容易，但我们必须以正确的方式看待挑战。 4 如今我明白，失败是人生必经之路。它可能在我们人生的任何阶段降临。此后我经历了许多其他可怕时刻，但再未如此痛苦。我清楚地知道，失败只是短暂的。当一扇门关闭时，另一扇门便会开启。生活正等待着我们，带来诸多意想不到的惊喜。 5 明天又是新的一天。 |
