BGrowing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. She was kind. People always seemed to feel fortable in her presence. For years, she was a volunteer in our munity. I loved going to the local nursing home with her where she taught a ceramics(制陶技术) class.On one summer day, Mama told me to get changed and meet her at the car. I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything? I imagined the cool lake water. Irritated，I climbed into the car and slammed the door shut. We sat in silence. I was too upset to make conversation.“Tasha, would you like to know where we are going?” Mama asked calmly.“No,” I said.“We are going to volunteer at a childrens shelter today. I have been there before and I think it would benefit you,” she explained.When we reached the shelter, Mama rang the doorbell. Moments later, we were greeted by a woman. She led us to the front room where all of the children were playing. I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with iron marks. I was told it was because she wouldnt stop crying. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars. Others hid their emotional wounds.As I took in my surroundings, I felt a gentle pull on my shirt. I looked down to see a little girl looking up at me. “Hi. You want to play dolls with me?” she asked. I looked over at Mama for reinforcement. She smiled and nodded. I turned back and said, “Sure.” Her tiny hand reached up and held mine, as if to fort me.My mom taught me a valuable lesson that summer. I returned to the shelter with her several times. During those visits, some of the children shared their troubled pasts with me and I learned to be grateful for what I had. Today as I try to instill (逐渐灌输) these values in my own child, I reflect back to that experience. It was a time that I will never forget.24The author admired her mom for_ .A her kindness to others B her excellent teachingC her quality of honesty D her positive attitude to life25According to Paragraph 3, when she was asked to go out with her mom, the author was_.A excited B angry C surprised D worried26From the pa
