(2018·山东滨州阳信模拟)To anyone who isn't British, the name of Red Nose Day probably sounds a little strange. Red Nose Day is an event which takes place every other year. The aim of the day is to raise as much money as possible for Comic Relief(喜剧救济基金会), a charity which helps people in the UK and across Africa. This year, it took place on 13th March.
Across Britain, people are encouraged to wear red noses and do something “funny for money” this day. This could be dyeing(染) their hair red for the day, painting their faces or joining in many kinds of money-raising events. Many schools hold cake sales or have a non-uniform day to raise money. There are also bigger events which they can take part in, such as “Dancing”. Over 2, 000 people took part in this six-hour dancing event, alongside several famous guests. The money raised will be put towards the projects run by Comic Relief. On Red Nose Day, lots of television programs make special reports for Comic Relief.
For me, the best part about Red Nose Day is wearing the red nose. New noses are designed each year and there is usually a theme. For example, one year the noses had a dinosaur theme. Besides the traditional red nose, people can also buy other products to support Comic Relief, such as umbrellas, cups, T-shirts and pens.
Comic Relief works with both children and adults. In Africa, the charity works to improve the quality of life in local communities. It helps children go to school and provides vaccines(疫苗) against deadly illnesses. In the UK, Comic Relief works closely with disabled and elderly people to make sure they have equal rights and have chances to use the facilities(设备) that they need.

(2018·湖南衡阳中考)Once upon a time, there was a tree which wanted to become a treasure box. One day, a farmer cut it down and sold it to a carpenter(木匠). The tree was happy because he thought the carpenter would make it into a treasure box.
To its surprise, the carpenter made it into a feed box for animals. The tree felt very disappointed because that was not its dream. Several years later, the feed box was thrown away. Someone picked it up and placed it into an old temple. The tree forgot its dream little by little.
One day, a couple came to the temple. The woman gave birth to a baby boy. There wasn't a bed in the temple. So they placed the baby in the feed box. They loved him and regarded him as their treasure. The tree suddenly realized that it became a real “treasure box” at that time.
