第二节 读写任务 (共1小题,满分25分)

       阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Dear Ari,

     As you sleep in my arms, I'm amazed at how light you feel. I stare at your tiny body, so fragile that a sudden wind could lift you up into the air. I love this feeling of protecting you and dreaming of all I have in store for you.

     I intend to bring you up to be brave and successful in an often difficult society. That's why your mommy and I have named you Ari, which means "lion". It's our hope that you will grow strong and eagerly grasp every opportunity to do well for yourself and others.

     Before you came into the world, we had spent months imagining what you'd be like. Would you be a boy or a girl? Would you look like Mommy, Daddy or your elder brothers? Anyway, we would find out soon.

     Finally your mother's labor came. And several hours later, we met the first time. I held you high up in the air. I then was able to cut your umbilical cord (脐带) and put you in your mother's arms. She still had enough energy to radiate the love while she pressed you to her face.

     And here we are tonight. As I hold you close, you sleep so peacefully. I press my ear to your chest and hear your strength. I am listening to the first beats of a lion's heart. Welcome to the world, Ari.

      Love,

      Daddy

Answer 1

Dear Daddy, 

     Happy birthday to you!

     I’ve just read the letter you wrote to me when I was born.  In your letter, you described your eagerness to see my coming to the world and expressed your hope about my growing up. You earnestly hope that I can grow strong and brave and can seize every chance to succeed.

     I was deeply touched / moved when I read your letter.  It’s the first time that I’ve realized your deepest love for me.  Reading the letter, I suddenly remember all the things that you’ve done for me. Once when I was ill, you rushed me to the hospital and stayed with me the whole night.  Each time I felt depressed, you would encourage me with a smile.  But when our teacher advised us to help parents (to) wash feet, I thought nothing of it.  How silly I was to take it for granted that you make every effort to bring me up and give me everything!  I feel ashamed that I failed to notice your tiredness, unhappiness or even illness.

     Today is your 50^th birthday, on which I thank you again from the bottom of my heart and wish you could enjoy a long and happy life.

                                                      Love,

    Son / Ari
