Question

【题目】 How can I become a better person? This question has been in my head for long. As students, we spend most of our time studying. I know learning at school, of course, makes us better persons, but I always dream of doing more.

Last year, I got to know a group of autistic(患自闭症的)children. We called them "the Snails(蜗牛)". It was hard to communicate with them at first, because they wouldn't like to. After a two-week training, I became more skilled. I got closer to them day by day. To my surprise, I found that every one of "the Snails" had his or her own talent. And their colorful pictures on the wall attracted my special attention, though it was difficult to tell what they were trying to express.

Moved by their pictures, I decided to hold a charity (慈善) sale. We walked on the busy street, selling their creative pictures. We sold 60 pictures that day. People thought their pictures were full of imagination.

Back to the question about how to become a better person, I think I am lucky enough to get my own answer.

【1】Do "the Snails" have their own talents?

【2】How many pictures did they sell that day?

【3】What is the writer's answer to the question "how to become a better person"?

【4】Do you think that selling pictures on the busy street is a very good way to help "the Snails"? Why or why not?

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】Yes./Yes, they do.

【2】60. /They sold 60 pictures that day.

【3】Studying/Learning/Working hard at school and helping others in need.

【4】Yes, I think so. Because it can help to raise money, and make more people know about "the snails" and help them. / No, I don't think so. Because it may be dangerous on the busy street, and we can post the pictures on the Internet to get more people's attention.

本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了我一直在想怎么变成一个更好的人，这个问题一直困扰着我，但是因为去年与自闭症的孩子们在一起相处的经历，让我找到了自己的答案。

【1】

根据“To my surprise, I found that every one of "the Snails" had his or her own talent”可知，我发现他们每个人都有自己的才能，故答案是Yes./Yes, they do.

【2】

【3】

根据第一段“ As students, we spend most of our time studying. I know learning at school, of course, makes us better persons”可知，“努力学习”可以让他变得更好；根据文中去年的经历可知，他帮助了自闭症的孩子们之后，让他找到了成为更好的人的答案，所以“帮助需要帮助的人”也可以让他变得更好。故答案是Studying/Learning/Working hard at school and helping others in need.
