【题目】A

Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. She was kind. People always seemed to feel comfortable in her presence. For years, she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home with her where she taught a ceramic class.

On one summer day, Mama told me to get changed and meet her at the car.

I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything? I imagined the cool lake water. Irritated, I climbed into the car and slammed the door shut. We sat in silence. I was too upset to make conversation.

＂Tasha, would you like to know where we are going?＂ Mama asked calmly.

＂No,＂ I said.

＂We are going to volunteer at a children’s shelter today. I have been there before and I think it would benefit you,＂ she explained.

When we reached the shelter, Mama rang the doorbell. Moments later, we were greeted by a woman. She led us to the front room where all of the children were playing. I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with iron marks. I was told it was because she wouldn’t stop crying. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars. Others hid their emotional wounds.

As I took in my surroundings, I felt a gentle tug on my shirt. I looked down to see a little girl looking up at me. ＂Hi. You want to play dolls with me?＂ she asked. I looked over at Mama for reinforcement. She smiled and nodded. I turned back and said, ＂Sure.＂ Her tiny hand reached up and held mine, as if to comfort me.

My mom taught me a valuable lesson that summer. I returned to the shelter with her several times. During those visits, some of the children shared their troubled pasts with me and I learned to be grateful for what I had. Today as I strive to instill(逐渐灌输) these values in my own child, I reflect back to that experience. It was a time that I will never forget.
