Question

【题目】A

Gina played a good joke on her mother yesterday. This is what she did. Gina went to the woods with her best friends Tina and Tara. They tried to find some green wood to fix up the house for Christmas. She wore her little cap, a red coat and a pair of cotton gloves. Gina was a merry girl. However, she felt sad this morning as she remembered her mother’s words, “The children are going to receive their presents, but I don’t expect any for myself. We are too poor to buy all of the gifts this year.”

When Gina told her brothers this, they all talked about a great deal. “Such a good, kind mother, and no Christmas present! It’s too bad.” said little Gina, with a tear in her eye. She found it was not easy to buy her mother a present.

“Don’t worry, Gina. She has you,’’ said her friend Tara.

“But I’m not a new Christmas present,’’ said Gina unhappily.

“Well, you will be new, Gina,’’ said Tara, “Jump into the basket and we’ll decorate it with beautiful flowers and grass. Then we’ll carry you to your mother.”

“And I am her Christmas present!” Gina cheered.

So they set Gina in the basket, and put green grass all around it. It was a joyful ride with laughing and talking. They set her down on the doorstep and knocked at the door. “There’s a Christmas present out there for you!” Mother went and looked, and there, in a basket of green grass, sat her own little laughing girl.

“Just the very thing I wanted most for Christmas,’’ said mother.
