We went into a secondhand shop to get out of the rain.
I took my 6-year-old daughter’s hand and we started to walk around. Suddenly she reached out her hand to touch a pair of shiny black shoes.
“Buy for me?” she asked.
“Oh, Sweetie, they are tap dancing (踢踏舞) shoes. You aren’t taking tap dance.”
“Buy for me?” she repeated.
“Well, let’s try them on.”
She sat on the floor and took off her bright pink rain boots.When she stood up we heard “click”. She took a step, “click, click, click.”
The sun came out and we went on our way. Our next stop was the grocery store(杂货店).
“Click, click, click…” people turned to look as we went into the store. People would never allow(允许) their daughter to wear tap dancing shoes to the grocery store .
“Excuse me, dear. Why would you allow your daughter to wear tap dancing shoes here? They make such a noise.”
“Isn’t it wonderful?”
“Wonderful? My dear, this is not the place to wear those shoes.”
“You don’t understand. When she was a baby, doctors told us that she would never walk or talk. It has taken a lot of hard work and patience, but she asked for the shoes and the ‘click, click, click’ says that she can walk,” I said.
My daughter is 18 now and will graduate from Grade 12 in June. It has not always been easy, but it has all been worthwhile (值得做的). She has taught me that it doesn’t matter what others think. They don’t walk in your shoes.

On a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old river behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out of the back door, leaving behind his shoes and shirt as he went.
He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, a crocodile (鳄鱼) was swimming toward him. His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became frightened and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him. From the shore, the mother caught her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile bit his legs. That began an unbelievable tug-of-war between the two. The crocodile was much stronger that the mother, but the mother was much too eager (急切的) to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, ran from his truck, and shot (射击) the crocodile.
After several weeks in hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were badly scarred (留下疤痕) by the attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches (抓伤) where his mother’s fingernails dug deep into his skin in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.
A newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his legs. And then, proudly, he said to the reporter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldn’t let go.”
Never judge another person’s scars, because you don’t know how they were made.

任务型阅读
Nearly every parent says that we never grow up. In fact, we are maybe 13 or 14 years old. In their eyes, we are always little ones and always do wrong things. For example, when I need to stay at home alone, they always worry about me and my life without them.
Most parents think that they have offered the best things they can to make their children live in a comfortable world. They buy their children pretty clothes, cool shoes, expensive school things, and often a thousand-yuan-cost bike. They think that they have done everything that they can for their dear children. In return, they only want their children to work hard and do well in the examinations.
But why the children still can’t understand them? Does it mean that we still want more material things? No. As a matter of fact, what we want is a true family. What does a true family mean? I think it means a place where we can hide ourselves from the cold world outside. From here, we can get warmth, we can get consolation(安慰), and we can get happiness. And one important thing is that we should be stronger and more confident in the outside world because we know that we have a family.
So I think that parents should sit down to talk with their children to let them know that they have a true family, so the children and their parents can understand each other more and more. Then, no children will be regarded as little ones.
