第二十六天 一．美文晨读 I bumped into a stranger as he passed by. Oh, excuse me Please, I said. He said, Please excuse me too. I wasnt even watching for you. We were very polite, this stranger and I. We went on our way and we said good-bye. But when we are at home a different story is told. Later that day, when I was cooking the evening meal, my daughter stood beside me very still. When I turned, I nearly knocked her down. Move out of the way, I said with a frown. She walked away and her little heart was broken. I didnt realize how harshly Id spoken. While I lay awake, that evening, in bed, Gods still small voice came to me and said, While dealing with a stranger, you use common courtesy, but the children you love, you seem to abuse. Go look on the kitchen floor, youll find some flowers there by the door. Those are the flowers she brought for you. She picked them herself: pink, yellow and blue. She stood quietly not to spoil the surprise, and you never saw the tears in her eyes. By this time, I felt very small, and now my tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt by her bed. Wake up, little girl, wake up, I said, Are these the flowers you picked for me? She smiled, I found them, out by the tree. I picked them because theyre pretty like you. I knew youd like them, especially the blue. I said, Daughter, Im sorry for the way I acted today. I shouldnt have yelled at you that way. She said, Oh, Mom, thats okay. I love you anyway. I said, Daughter, I love you too, and I do like the flowers, especially the blue. Are you aware that: If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days. But the family we left behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than to our family — an unwise investment indeed. 二. 词汇训练 1. chinese history is filled with great _______(成就) in science and? technology 2 . i’d like to write him a letter, but i don’t know his
