Charity Shop Finds Mystery Card

Today is Valentine's Day! A day for love. Some people love chocolate, they want to eat it all the time! Some people love their pets… but they don't want to eat them! 愛有很多種，有人愛巧克力，有人愛寵物。 Some people love helping others. A great way to do that is to donate. That means giving your stuff away for free. 還有人愛幫助別人。這些人會去捐東西。 Charity shops are where you can donate your stuff. They sell it, and use the money to help good causes. 你可以把東西捐給慈善商店。他們會把東西賣掉，用賺來的錢幫助其他人。 In the UK, someone donated an old bag full of stuff to a charity shop. They found a mystery Valentine's Day card! 在英國，有一個人捐了滿滿一袋東西給慈善商店，結果他們找到一個神秘的情人節卡片！ In the card was a beautiful poem, and a photo of a woman and her three children. The end of the poem says: "From the person that loves you more than anything else in the world". Awwww! 卡片上面有一首詩，還有一個媽媽跟三個小孩的一張照片。詩的結尾寫說：「愛你勝過一切的人敬上」。 The card was written for the woman in the photo, but no-one knows who she is! 這張卡是給照片裡面的媽媽的，但沒有人認識他。 The photo is black and white, so they know the card must be very old. It will be hard to find the woman, or her family. But it will make her so happy to see the card again! 因為照片是黑白的，所以一定是很久以前的，要找到人應該很難，但如果她真的收到了，一定會很開心！ The things we do for love… ________________________________ Vocabulary 一張表達深刻愛情的卡片，讓人想追尋它的故事。 1. woman 女子 There's an old woman standing there with a bag in her hand. 有一個老婦人站在那兒，手裡拿著個包包。 Hmmm, do you think she needs help? 你覺得她需要幫忙嗎？ 2. donate 捐獻 I don't know. 不知道。 Maybe we can donate some food to her. 也許我們可以捐一點食物給她。 Donating food? 捐食物嗎？ What if she's not hungry? 要是她不餓怎麼辦？ 3. give 給予 Then we can give her something else. 那我們就給她別的東西。 Well, you'd better ask her what she needs. 你最好問問她需要什麼。 4. sell 賣 She's just hoping to sell the bag! 她只是想把包包賣掉。 She made many different ones. 她做了很多個不同的包。 Wow, silly us! 哇，我們真傻。 你有捐獻過什麼東西嗎？ woman 女子 donate 捐獻 give 給予 sell 賣 ________________________________ Quiz 1.
