27、   How do you know if your mother likes you or not? That is a question I have been struggling with a lot lately. My mother and I used to talk on the phone a few times a day. I saw her at least twice a week. Now she doesn’t answer when I call, and never calls me back. She doesn’t see me and then complains that I don’t see her enough.

It all started a few months ago, I started having a date with a man, and we became serious quickly. This is not the first boyfriend I have had. I know she isn’t mad at me for my finding love. The turn-in events happened when I moved from about 15 minutes away from my mom to 1.5 hours away from her. She encouraged it, she seemed happy, and she helped me pack. Since then, everything has changed.

I can’t tell if she cares about me and I don’t know if she is bitter. When I call her, she says she is busy and will call me back. Then the problem is that she never calls me back, I make plans with her, but she cancels. Then when I do see her, she gives me comments like “It’s been a while since you came to see me”. It seems like I haven’t tried. It’s very frustrating.

I don’t know what is wrong, and she won’t talk to me, so I can’t find out. Does anyone have any advice for what to do in a situation like this? Part of me wants to cry and stop trying. But not talking to her tears me apart. Please give me some advice below.

【1】What’s the writer’s purpose of writing these passages?

A.To share her sad story. B.To ask for some advice.

29、   When I was about twelve，I headed to a restaurant for dinner with my family. It was winter，and on that night the wind was really blowing hard.

As my mom and I headed to the restaurant from our car，a girl about my age and her mother came up to us. They asked if we had any spare change (零钱). My mom right away asked where they lived. They pointed to an old car in a parking lot across the street. The girl said there were six of them living in that car.

My mom said she had something to do after handing the people a few dollars. She sent me inside the restaurant with my dad and my three siblings (兄弟姐妹). But she didn't come. Later，I found out she had gone home and put all the food in our cupboards (食橱) into a few bags. Then，she brought that food over to the car and handed the bags to the family. I wasn't there when that happened，but I can only imagine the joy it brought to those people. A few days later, when I actually found out about what she had done,I asked her why she helped those people. She told me that they were not lucky. I remember the face of that girl who had asked us for change. She was the same age as me，yet we looked so different.

Here I stood，dressed in almost new clothes，headed to eat in a restaurant and then back home to the bedroom I shared with my younger sister . I remember thinking that the other girl didn't have any food to eat and she was heading back to a cold car shared with five other people.

After painting this picture in my mind，I understood why my mom had done what she did. I will never forget what she did that night，and how she taught me one of the best lessons I ever learned.
