Cooking — it’s creative and fun

I first became interested in cooking one summer holiday when I was about 12. I was staying with my aunt, who is an experienced cook, and I wanted to 【1】 cooking for myself. She started by teaching me how to make pretty simple dishes at first. I found I really enjoyed cooking and I was soon doing things which were more difficult. Not everything I cooked was as 【2】 as my aunt’s dishes. My younger brother and sister complained (抱怨) about some of my dishes, but they usually ate the food quite happily. When I went back to school after summer, I decided to take cooking lessons and now I think I’m quite a skilled cook. When 【3】 come to my house, I often cook them something, because I find it really satisfying and relaxing. I think creating new dishes is interesting and it’s wonderful to see my family and friends enjoying a meal I’ve cooked. I would recommend (推荐) it as a hobby because for me it’s one of the most creative and 【4】 free-time activities that anyone can do.

22、One morning, a blind boy sat beside a building with a hat by his feet．He held a sign which said, “I am blind．Please help me．”

There were only a few coins in the hat．A man was walking by．He took out a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat．He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words on it．He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by could the new words．

Soon the hat began to fill up．A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy．That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were．The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, “Are you the one who changed my sign in the morning? What did you write?”

The man said, “I only wrote the truth．I said what you said, but in a different way．”

What he had written was, “Today is a beautiful day, but I can' t see it．”

Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?
