However, when the little boy asked his mother if he could let the dog come into the house, she hesitated(犹豫). “We have no room for it,” she said. The poor dog seemed 【小题5】 (understand) what she had said. It looked so sad! The little boy almost cried when he saw the dog’s big eyes looking up at him 【小题6】 (sad).

His mother was actually kind, too. She did not drive the poor hungry dog away, but let it stay in the yard. The little boy gave the dog some food and water. They also made it clean.

After a few days, the dog was 【小题7】 (good) than before with the help of the boy and his mother. It began to show how happy and 【小题8】 (thank) it was. Because of their 【小题9】 (kind), the dog finally found a home. The little boy and his mother did 【小题10】 they could to help the poor dog.

It was Saturday night, but Ma Jun was still busy. She 【小题1】 (help) children at her school take showers. “There are others staying at school on weekends. They have nowhere else 【小题2】 (go), ”she said.

Ma used to be a college P. E. teacher in Xi’an. But nine years ago, she chose a new life for herself. She left the city to teach at a village school in the north of Shaanxi. The school is for “left-behind children (留守儿章)”. Their parents 【小题3】 (go) to cities to find jobs.

Ma has made a big 【小题4】 (different) at the school. She plays a key role in 【小题5】 (improve) the school’s curriculum (课程内容). The school day was all about studying in the classroom several years ago. Ma added P. E. and scientific experiments to 【小题6】 (pupil) daily lives. She 【小题7】 introduced Yangge and martial arts (武术) to the children.

【小题8】 Ma has a monthly pay of only 3,000 yuan, she has no regrets. She lives with the children every day and takes care of them all the time. In her spare time, Ma grows vegetables and 【小题9】 (keep) pigs to support the school’s canteen (食堂)

No wonder the students all want to say “Happy Mother’s Day!” to Ma 【小题10】 Mother’s Day is coming. To them, Ma is not only a teacher, but also their “mother”.
