心灵鸡汤精选Artie

【文章梗概】我很喜欢药店的一只土豚，但是因为家里买不起它，只能每次去药店给奶奶买助听器电池的时候，才能悄悄跟它玩耍，所以每次我都会在药店耽误很长的时间，这是我的秘密。后来哥哥发现了我的秘密，但他并没有拆穿我，每次都会让我陪土豚玩。有一天土豚不见了，我很伤心难过。圣诞节的时候，哥哥把它当成礼物送给了我。

Sometimes being a brother is even better than being a superhero.

~Marc Brown

I rushed through the big glass doors of Lehman’s Pharmacy. I was there to buy my grandmother’s hearing aid batteries while my mother waited outside in the car. She would notice if I took too long, but this was my chance to visit the love of my life — Artie.

I rushed to his aisle, and there he was, right where I last saw him: a brown, fuzzy little guy with a large tan nose that fit perfectly over my shoulder as I squeezed him tightly. I adored that aardvark stuffed animal.

But my mother noticed, saying, “You took a long time in Lehman’s — and I looked — there weren’t huge lines. Next time, your brother is going in with you.”

Oh, great! My brother, Rich, was going to accompany me into the pharmacy. He would watch me like a hawk and report everything to our mother.

I wasn’t going to give up seeing my precious Artie. So, as we walked into the store together, I suggested to Rich that he get the batteries, since he was older. He agreed but said I shouldn’t be going off to look at the cosmetics, as I wasn’t allowed to wear them yet.

He needn’t have worried about that; I was already heading toward Artie. There he was, awaiting me. I grabbed him and hugged him tightly, his tan nose fitting perfectly on my shoulder. Just then, I heard him: “What in the world are you doing?”

My cover was blown. “This is Artie,” I said. “His nose rests perfectly on my shoulder, and I hug him every single time I come here. Don’t tell Mom. I know we can’t afford him, and I hope he doesn’t get sold, because I just love this little guy.”

The look on Rich’s face was unreadable, but I knew deep down that he wasn’t going to make fun of me. In fact, a few times when he accompanied me to the pharmacy, he said, “Go on and hug your ugly animal, if it’s still there, and I’ll get Gram’s batteries.”

One day, Rich was working with Dad somewhere, so Mom took me to Lehman’s alone and said, “You get to go in by yourself, again. Just don’t take forever, okay?”

I rushed into the pharmacy and went straight to Artie’s shelf. But he was gone. I searched high and low. I wanted to cry, but I kept holding out hope that Artie would be on one of the shelves that I hadn’t checked.

Suddenly, a voice from the counter interrupted my search. It was Mrs. Lehman herself. “Are you looking for that stuffed animal you hug every single time you’re here?”

“How did you…?”

“Know? We do have mirrors in the store, dear. See them? We can see almost everything. Honey, I’m sorry to tell you but someone came in here the other week and bought the aardvark.”

I was crestfallen.

“Dear, I am truly sorry. I know how much you loved him, but we carry stuffed animals to sell — not to hug and put back on the shelf.”

She was right — I knew she was right. So why did I feel so empty and upset? I weakly thanked her as I paid for Gram’s hearing aid batteries. Then I slowly walked out to my mom’s car with my head hanging low, trying to hide my tears. I prayed that Artie had found good home.

A month went by, and it was Christmas Eve. We were allowed to open one present that night and save the rest for Christmas morning.

Rich walked up to me and said nonchalantly, “Here, you may want to open this one, or you may not — it’s up to you.”

My interest was piqued. I shook it. It was soft. But it didn’t feel like clothing. My heart was thumping as I ripped open a section of wrapping paper and revealed a tan piece of cloth — a piece that resembled an aardvark’s nose! It was Artie!

I squealed with delight, my mother looked confused, and my brother smiled proudly as I hugged him. Then I hugged Artie close to me, his little tan nose resting perfectly on my shoulder.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

One day, while Sutter surfed the Internet watching some videos of cute animals with his mom, he came across a story posted by the local animal shelter (收容所). It explained that there was a cat, which was named Hazel by the workers, living in the shelter and needing help.

The workers found the cat at a transfer station where garbage and other waste are sorted. At first, the workers thought Hazel was just looking for food. But they later discovered that the back legs of the cat were injured. What was worse, after a physical examination, they found the bones of the cat were broken and that necrosis — meaning the death of cells in some part of the body — had set in. The workers thought Hazel would need surgery (手术) to get better. So they called on the community to raise money for the cat.

That was when Sutter got to work. After he knew the story about the poor cat in his community, the nine-year-old cat lover said to his mom,“I just can’t stop thinking about the cat. It is in urgent need of surgery. I want to raise money to help the cat.”Hearing those words, Sutter’ s mother was happy that her son was a kind-hearted boy and decided to help him.

Then Sutter came up with a good idea: making use of the power of cinnamon buns ( 肉桂卷). He knew if there was anything that could get the community members to empty their pockets, it would be this sweet treat: cinnamon buns. Then he and his mom started baking cinnamon buns, and his mom posted Sutter’s efforts on a social media page. Knowing Sutter’s good intention, the whole community reached out and donated money to Sutter. Finally, Sutter was able to raise $850 in total. Then Sutter and his mom gladly went to the animal shelter and dropped the money there.

注意：

1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;

With the money, Hazel was able to receive the surgery.

Since adopting Hazel, Sutter has done a lot to help it recover.

拓展练习读后续写参考范文

With the money, Hazel was able to receive the surgery. Sutter and her mother also went to the hospital. After arriving there, the vet operated an injection on Hazel. Sutter could tell by the expression on Hazel’s face that she felt aching badly. To Sutter’s surprise, she didn’t cry out and just keep still to accept it. Touched by her courage, Stutter said to her mom that she wanted to adopt her. Luckily, her mom agreed immediately because she also loved this poor cat very much.

Since adopting Hazel, Sutter has done a lot to help it recover. Every morning, Sutter sent food to feed her and didn’t dare to let her lift anything. She knew it was good for her to keep still on her bed and not to move so much. Sutter knew that eating fish can help her recover more quickly. So she went to buy fresh fish for her every morning. Having cooked them, Sutter took them to her. Luckily, Hazel recovered soon and was able to run.
