Question

【题目】 Bertie was a very good boy,but he always forgot. No matter what he was asked to do, in the end his answer always was ’I forgot.’ If he was sent to the store to get something, he would return with nothing but his usual answer.

His parents decided that something must be done to make the little boy remember.

Christmas was near, and Bertie was busy making out a long list of things that he wanted Santa Claus to bring him.’Santa Claus may forget some of those things.’ said his mother.

He cannot,’replied Bertie,’because I will write all the things on this paper. Then Santa Claus can see it and put the things in my stocking(长袜).’

Christmas morning came, and Bertie was up early to see what was in his stocking. His mother kept away from him as far as she could, for she knew what Santa Claus had done.

Finally she heard him coming to her room. He held a list in his hand,which is much longer than the one he had made out. He put it in his mother’s hand, while tears of

disappointment fell from his eyes. It was a list of all the things that Bertie had forgotten to do over the last six months. At the end of all was written, in big letters, ’I FORGOT.’.

Bertie cried for an hour. Then they went to grandpa’s house. There for the first time he saw a Christmas tree. It was very strange to Bertie, but on the Christmas tree he found everything he had written on his list.

Did he change his bad habit? Not all at once,but when his mother saw that he was very careless,she would say, ―’Remember, Santa Claus does not forget!’
