I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer when it all happened. I was a second grader, but my be st friend Stephanie was only in the first grade. Both o f our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way.It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adven ture in Stephanie’s basement. As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing t hings like guns, dolls, and old clothes. I ran downstair s, and spotted a red steel can. It was paint. I lookedbeyond it and there lay even more paint in bright col ors like purple, orange, blue and green.“Stephanie,I just found us a project for the d ay. Get some paintbrushes. We are fixing to paint.”She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret p lans and immediately we got to work. We gathered all th e brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard. There on the road in front of my house, we painted big stripes (条纹) of colors across the pavement (人行道). Stripe by stripe, our colors turned into a beautifu l rainbow. It was fantastic!The sun was starting to sink. I saw a car in t he distance and jumped up as I recognized the car. It was my mother. I couldn’t wait to show her my masterpi ece. The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from t he look on my mother’s face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble.My mother shut the car door and walked towards m e. Her eyes glaring, she shouted, “What in the world w ere you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors’trees, but this! Come inside right now!”I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art.“Now go clean it up!”Mother and I began clean ing the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my be autiful rainbow turn into black cement.Though years have now passed, I still wonder wher e my rainbow has gone. I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush i t away. I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to b righten our lives from time to time and to keep our ho pes and dreams colorful.2.What did the writer want to do when his mother came home?A.
