29、I never wanted to go to kindergarten, or leave home at all. I spent my first five years within the loving arms of my family, and when the time came for me to begin school at PS116 in Brooklyn, I was sure that no one would keep me safe. But I was so lucky to meet Mrs. Heyman. Not only did she make me feel safe, she let me know that I was special.
Kindergarten was a fearful experience for me. I was a shy child who hated being separated from my mommy. Mrs. Heyman was a kind and patient teacher who tried to get me to stop crying each morning after I asked for one last kiss.
She would distract me with pens and colorful paper and by playing beautiful music. It seemed the feeling of being an artist distracted me from my separation unhappiness, allowing me to attend class as the tears ran down my face. I also loved to sing and dance, and performed the Virginia reel-a kind of dance—when the principal. Mr. Barton, visited our class.
Mr. Barton was an old, serious man who liked to walk behind children who behaved badly and shout, “Behave!” I was afraid of being shouted at by him, and practiced the dance with my classmates until Mrs. Heyman told us we were perfect.
Unluckily, I was so nervous before Mr. Barton’s visit that I wet myself. Mrs. Heyman calmly took me to the bathroom and told me to change into new clothes, drying my tears all the while, never showing judgement.
As I performed, Mr. Barton cheered. Pleased, I bravely stepped up to the front of the classroom and threw kisses in Mrs. Heyman’s direction.
I was lucky to have her again for the first grade and learned to love school and learning. She was right about living my life without long-lasting attention from my mommy.
【1】What was the author’s life like before he went to kindergarten?

C.He failed to find his new clothes.
D.He visited the bathroom many times.

32、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The first time we set eyes on “Big Red,” father, mother and I were trudging through the freshly fallen snow and passing the Eaton’s department store’s window. We stopped as usual to gaze and do a bit of dreaming. The gaily decorated window display the breathtaking skirt of Big Red. Mother’s eyes were glued to the massive flame of red. “My goodness,” she managed to say in wonder, “would you just look at that dress?” Then, totally out of character, mother twirled one spin of a waltz (华尔兹) on the slippery sidewalk. Beneath the heavy grey wool coat she had worn every winter for as long as I could remember, mother lost her balance and tumbled. Father quickly caught her.
Her cheeks redder than usual, “Oh, stop that!” She ordered as he swept the snow from her coat. “What a silly dress to be placed up there in the window of Eaton’s!” She shook her head in disgust. “Who on earth would want such a fancy but useless dress?” As we continued down the street, mother turned back for one more look.
Christmas was nearing , and the red dress was soon forgotten. Mother, of all people, was not one to wish for, or spend money on items that were not practical. “There are things we need more than this or that,” she’d always say. Father, on the other hand, liked to satisfy whenever the budget allowed. Of course, he’d get scolded for his occasional splurging (挥霍), but it was all done with the best intention.
On our last trip to town before Christmas, we were driving up Main Street when Mother suddenly shouted in surprise: “Would you just look at that!” She pointed excitedly as Dad drove past Eaton’s.
“That big real dress is gone,” she said in disbelief. “It’s actually gone.”
“Well…!” Dad chucked. “Oh God, it is!”
“Who’ d be fool enough to buy such a dress?” Mother questioned, shaking her head.
I quickly stole a glance at Dad. His blue eyes were twinkling as he nudged me with his elbow. Mother craned her neck for another glimpse out the window as we rode on up the street. “It’s gone…” She whispered, a trace of story in her voice.
Paragraph 1:
I’ll never forget that Christmas morning
Paragraph 2:
Mother opened the box only to find a red shining dress.
