江苏省苏州市高新区2016届九年级上学期英语期末考试试卷
I noticed an old couple as they walked into the second-hand store. Just before that I had dropped off a bag of clothes and a few other things I no longer needed.
The couple moved 1 around me in search of things they had on a list.
“Can I help you 2 something?” I asked curiously.
They stopped, looked at me and said, “We're looking for 3 things that look new.”
“Every year in the past, we tried to 4 the year with new things. It was a goal (目标) to have new things around us so that we had a new 5, new hopes and dreams for the new year,” said the old man. “But nowadays we also believe that even though something is old, it 6 be new to someone who has never seen it before.”
“So, at the end of each year we search for things that are 7 to no one but new to us,” the old woman added.
“What have you found so far?” I asked.
The man showed two things: a small frame made of sticks and one baby boot.
“We still need one more thing,” he said.
“Got it!” I heard a loud 8.
“What did you find?” the old man shouted, too.
The old woman walked slowly towards us 9 something in her hand. “Look! It's a flower vase. Well, it looks 10, but it's new to us!”
They then headed for the checkout without saying another word.
Everything that you see for the first time is new.
