参考答案：
Dear Zack,
I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble with your best friend and I know how it feels.
It seemed that you just wanted to play a joke rather than hurt Charlie on purpose. However, he took it seriously and feels hurt. I guess neither of you are wrong. Anyway, It was you who first caused the misunderstanding and I think you’d better reach out to apologize to break the ice if you cherish your friendship. How about writing a card to express your apology?
Hope you will get along well again.
Yours,
Li Hua
20. Long ago God had a great many burdens which he wished to have carried from one place to another on the earth, so he asked the animals to lend a hand. But all of them began to make excuses for not helping: the elephant was too dignified; the lion, too proud; and so on. Finally the birds came to God and said, “If you will tie the burdens into small bundles, we’ll be glad to carry
them for you. We ar e small but we would like to help.” So God fastened upon the back of each one a small bundle, and they all set out walking across the plain to their destination. They sang as they went, and did not seem to feel the weight of their burdens at all. Every day the burdens seemed lighter and lighter until the loads seems to be lifting the birds, instead of the birds carrying the burdens. When they arrived at their destination, they discovered that when they removed their loads, there were wings in their place. It was the wings that enabled them to fly to the sky.
【写作内容】

2. 然后以约120词就“将负担变成翅膀”这个主题写一篇短文，并包括如下要点：
（1）你在生活中或学习上有什么负担？你怎样看待它们？
（2）你认为怎样做可以将负担变成翅膀。

【写作要求】
1. 作文中可以使用亲身经历或虚构的故事，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不得直接引用原文中的句子。

2. 作文中不得出现真实姓名和学校名称。

【评分标准】
概括准确，语言规范，内容合适，语篇连贯。

参考答案：
Burdens Give Us Wings
The legend relates that unlike other animals, the birds volunteered to help God carry the burdens to the destination merrily. Unexpectedly, wings replaced the loads afterwards, which enabled the birds to fly.
It’s true that everyone, willingly or unwillingly, carries burdens of this or that kind, and I am no exception. I am burdened with endless homework, unsatisfactory performance, and sometimes disagreements with my family. But as I always focus on the sunny side of life, I see these inevitable burdens as opportunities to learn more knowledge, gain more experience and thus grow more and more mature.
From my own perspective, taking advantage of the burdens properly, we can turn them into wings that help us fly closer and closer to our goals. For one thing, we should treat various burdens differently, only taking seriously those worth struggling for and letting go of the unimportant and unnecessary. For another, once we decide on a worthwhile goal, we should keep the faith that as long as we shoulder any loads with a light heart, we will make it eventually.
Burdens give us wings.
