Passage 5
A story is told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in Vietnam. He called his parents from San Francisco. "Mom and Dad, I'm coming home, but I've a favor to ask. I have a friend. I'd like to bring him home with me."
"Sure," they replied, "we'd love to meet him."
"There's something you should know," the son continued, "he was injured pretty badly in the fighting. He stepped on a land mine（地雷） and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere el to go, and I want him to live with us."
"We're sorry to hear that, son. But, maybe we can help him find somewhere to live."
"No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us."
"Son," said the father, "you don't know what you're asking. Someone with such a handicap would be a terrible burden to us. We have our own lives to live, and we can't let something like this interfere with our lives. I think you should just come home and forget about this guy. He'll find a way to live on his own."
At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him. A few days later, however, they received a call from the San Francisco police. Their son had died after falling from a building. The police believed he had killed himlf.
The grief-stricken（悲痛欲绝的） parents flew to San Francisco and were taken to the city morgue（太平间） to identify the body of their son. They recognized him, but to their horror they also discovered something they didn't know, their son had only one arm and one leg.

朦胧造句Passage 6
People often say that the Englishman's home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal. Most people in Britain live in hous rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This means that they can make them personal, and change them in any way they like- Most hous have a garden, even if it is a small one, and the garden is usually loved. The hou and the garden are the private space of a person. In a crowded city a person knows that he or she has a private space which is only for him or herlf and for invited friends. 春节的作文300字
