河南省濮阳市2019-2020八年级下学期升级考试英语试题(含听力音频)
Betty and I are best friends. Our birthdays are on the same day, so every year we have a birthday party together. But this year, we had a costume party at my home instead.
While we were writing the invitations (请帖), my mom came in and asked, “Why not invite John?” John came to our class a few months ago, but he already got better grades in math than anyone else in class. I wrinkled (皱起)my nose, “Mom, he wears the same pants to school every day. How could he even buy a new costume?” Mom said nothing. The next day, Mom gave me some new clothes. “I thought it would be nice for you to give these to John.” Mom said. But how? We didn't want to make John embarrassed (尴尬). We discussed it for a long time. Finally, Betty and I had a good idea.
On the day of our party, kids arrived, dressed differently. John arrived, in an old pair of shoes, but still in the same brown pants as usual. We danced, ate snacks and played games in groups. Before eating the birthday cake, Betty said in a loud voice,“ Now it's time for the great prize(奖品) game. It's the following riddle…” It was a math game. None of us was surprised when John came up with the right answer first and walked off with the prize.
Everything went on well as we planned. John wore a new pair of pants and a new shirt the next week. He felt happy. So did we.
When we help others, we need to find a proper way, or we may hurt them in another way.
