        My mother adopted eight children and she was very open with us about being adopted. When I would come home crying because kids in school would tease me about being adopted, my mother would look at me in the eye and say, “Tell them ‘my mother chose me out of hundreds of babies in the world, and your parents were stuck with you!’”
        My mother was tough. At a very young age, we were taught to think before we reacted. I’ll never forget the time my sisters and I found a wallet in the park. There were three dollars but no ID in it. We thought long and hard about what we wanted to do with our riches. We voted and decided it would be best to splurge(挥霍) on chips, candy, and pop with the few dollars. Oh yeah, we were going to go crazy in our neighborhood shop! We took the wallet home and stashed(藏匿) it in our room. Being rich was hard work, so we took shifts guarding the wallet. I’m sure my mother picked up on the slightly different attitudes we were all displaying because of our newfound treasure.
        When each of us was alone with her, she’d ask questions such as, “How was your day?” or “Do you have any homework?” We were convinced she was trying to see who would break first. So we met in our room and went back and forth trying to determine if she knew. Our meeting turned into each of us defending ourselves and the part we played in finding and keeping the wallet. There was only one thing left to do: bury the wallet in the sandbox and never discuss it again.
　　I am not sure who broke down and told her about the wallet. The moment she found out the truth, she made us into the van(面包车), and drove us to the police station.

Paragraph 2:

答案： We got out of the van with tears in our eyes and walked into the police station after Mom. Mom told the officers what happened and asked them to arrest us all. I was ashamed. Begging and pleading between our sobs, we reassured our mother that we were sorry. Mom, who was famous for getting her point across, wasn’t convinced. She grabbed her bag and left.
The police officers played along(配合) and gave us a firm talking - to. After what felt like hours but in reality was probably fifteen minutes, my siblings and I were so grateful when Mom came and picked us up. We were so happy to see her and to know that, no matter what we did, she was there for us. When I look back at Mom’s methods, I understand that no matter how big or small the mistakes are, her mission is to teach us right from wrong. Because she cares about us, she drives her point home by exposing us to potential consequences.
