Ⅵ.阅读与回答问题
根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
Days pass by. It seems that daily life will become boring if nothing unexpected happens in our lives. The sense of ceremony from special days keeps our feelings fresh and increases expectations of life.
Mrs Li has two children. Li Xin is her 15 - year - old daughter. Li Lei is Li Xin's brother. He's two years older than Li Xin.
A new semester should begin with a sense of ceremony. On the first day of new term, Li Xin sat in front of the TV and watched the First Class, an educational programme of CCTV. The First Class encouraged her to study hard and be a useful person.
Another exciting thing to bring her the sense of ceremony is the flag - raising ceremony. On Monday morning, students were dressed in school uniforms and stood in neat lines on the playground quietly. While Li Xin was singing along with the national anthem and watching the rising flag, the sense of national pride and love for the country came into her heart.
Li Xin will leave junior high school this year. She expects the moving moment of graduation ceremony. She will never forget the important people in her life who helped and supported her—her parents, her teachers and her friends. She will consider what they've done for her and hopes that they will be proud of her in the future.
As for Li Lei, he can't wait to grow up, as he can make his own decisions. He always asks a question, “At what age do I really become an adult?” In China, the 18th birthday is a very important event for young people because they can vote and learn to drive a car, so Mrs Li regards Li Lei's birthday as the most important event. She will have a big birthday party for her son. Li Lei gradually realises no matter how old he is, becoming an adult is really about learning how to be independent and responsible.
Every moment to record a meaningful event brings a sense of ceremony and makes our lives colourful.
