She stood by the window, watching. The postman came as usual. The old lady’s heart beat wildly. How she wished for a special present from her daughter! Then came the knock. There was Johnnie, with several envelopes. No parcels at all! Her heart sank! She scanned the envelopes swiftly, most of which were birthday cards from her lifelong friends. Then she picked out the one from her daughter.
Almost reluctantly she tore the envelope open. Folded in the card was a piece of paper. Written on the card was a message under the printed Happy Birthday—Buy yourself something nice with the cheque, Myra and Harold. The cheque fluttered to the floor like a bird with a broken wing. Slowly the old lady stooped to pick it up. Her present, her lovely present. With trembling fingers she tore it into little bits.

Language appreciation: a good way to describe one’s mental activities
(Para. 4) Two spots of color brightened her cheeks. She was excited like a child. She would enjoy her day.
Almost reluctantly she tore the envelope open. “Dear mum, sorry to have let you down so many times whether on your birthdays or other occasions. I got a medal for my work for the aged, but I don’t think I deserve it. For so long I’ve neglected the most lovely aged person in my life, who needs my care and company. I know it’s time to …” Reading the letter, the old lady couldn’t help but sob. Tears ran down her cheeks and dropped onto the letter. Just at that moment, familiar steps drew closer and without doubt, the old lady knew that her most cherished present was finally coming.
Use at least 5 of the following words: please, postman, arrange for, lovely, parcels, write, birthday, presents
Original ending: She stood by the window, watching. The postman turned round the corner on his bicycle. Her heart beat fast. Johnnie had seen him too and ran to the gate. Then clatter, clatter up the stairs. Johnnie knocked at her door. “Granny, granny,” he shouted, “I„ve got your post. ”He gave her four envelopes. Three were unsealed cards from old friends. The fourth was sealed, in Myra‟s writing. The old lady felt a pang of disappointment. “No parcel, Johnnie?” “No, granny.” Maybe the parcel was too large to come by letter post .That was it .It would come later by parcel post. She must be patient.
She was so eager to get a present. “A person was very nervous.” His heart was beating wildly. He was sweating all over.
she expected： （Para. 6)
a present
我的续写思路基于以下几点： 标题是礼物，这个礼物在文章末尾以怎么样的形 式出现必然是文章高潮部分； 血浓于水。每个周围的人都对这个老太那么好， 这个女儿会做更大的努力让妈妈高兴吗？开篇留 下这样的悬念，当然可以是悲剧结尾，也可以是 大团圆结局。 老太的女儿的工作跟老年人有关，而因此得到一 个奖项，我们可以把此点理解成一种讽刺。也可 以为我要写的结局埋下伏笔。
Opening paragraph: They say that blood is thicker than water, that our relatives are more important to us than others. Everyone was so kind to the old lady on her birthday. Surely her daughter would make an even bigger effort to please her?
