📄 听力原文 建议先盲听2遍,再对照原文
When Minglan was a little girl, she had a small secret that she never told anyone else.
After her mother died, she left a painting to Minglan. It was not expensive or fancy, but it was the only thing Minglan had from her mother. The painting showed a brave female general guarding a city gate. She hid it carefully in her room, and never let other people see it. Sometimes when she missed her mother so much, she would take it out quietly and look at it for a long time. She did not cry in front of others, because she knew she had to be strong.
This small painting carried all her missing for her mother. It was also the little warm power that helped her get through her hard childhood.
📖 参考译文 听完后核对,加深理解
明兰小的时候,有一个从不告诉别人的小秘密。
母亲去世后,留给明兰一幅画。那画不贵重,也不精致,却是明兰从母亲那里得到的唯一遗物。画上画的是一位勇敢的女将军,镇守着一座城门。她把画小心翼翼地藏在屋里,从不让别人看见。有时候太想娘了,就悄悄拿出来,看上很久。她从不在别人面前哭,因为她知道,自己必须坚强。
这小小的一幅画,承载了她对母亲全部的思念。也是那一点点温暖的力量,陪着她熬过了艰难的童年。
