ONLINE REVIEW:
◆◆◆◆◇ All-natural, sizes are strange
By a Mom of five Nov. 14, 2023
As a mom of five, with two still in diapers, I wasn’t sure about this brand. I had already been using another brand for years, but after I used a free sample of these, I decided to switch. I love that these diapers use all-natural materials on the inside where the diaper touches my baby’s delicate skin. The only complaint I have is that the diapers are small compared to other brands. But, they still kept my baby dry, and there were no leaks (漏)!
RESPONSE:
Thank you for your review. I’m glad that the diapers are working for your baby and you. We designed these diapers because we think babies deserve the best. We’ve tested them vigorously so that you can rest easy, knowing that your baby is comfortable, and that you won’t have a mess to take care of since our diapers don’t leak. We aren’t sure why you think the diapers are small but if you’ll let us call you, we’d like to hear more so we can fix anything that doesn’t meet our customers’ standards.
David R. Mann,
Pipers Company

B
It was a bright spring morning in Rochester, New York, neighborhood. Three young men, their hearts full of excitement, were preparing for a road trip across the United States. It would be the adventure (冒险) of a lifetime. I was one of those young men. For my friends and me, going on a cross-country exploration was at the top of our bucket lists!
A bucket list simply lists things you want to see, try or accomplish (完成) within your lifetime. But it’s not something simple like learning to ride a bike or passing a math test. You need to dream big! This may not sound practical, but it’s a good mental exercise and a lot of fun. Making a bucket list can push you to do something extraordinary (超乎寻常的)!
Making a bucket list can also help you know about your values. People live busy lives, so it’s easy to get tangled up (纠缠) in life’s daily routines. But taking time to think carefully aout what you really want from life can help you get a fresh perspective (视角).
If you’re ready to start making your own bucket list, you first need to decide what to put on it. You could make a list of outlandish (稀奇古怪) things you’d like to do, such as doing an underwater photo shoot as a mermaid. If you love adventure, your list might include learning to sail a sailboat. If you love animals, you could put a trip to Tokyo to visit an owl cafe on your list.
If you can’t think of anything to put on your list, then learn something new! My interest in visiting Chile came from reading an article in a magazine. The universe interests me, and I
want to learn more about it! Now it’s your turn. What strikes your fancy? Not until you dream BIG can you discover what you are capable of (有能力做).
6. The first thing in the writer’s buket list is ______.
A. to have a cross-country road trip
B. to learn to ride a bike
C. to pass a math test
7. The writer says “You need to dream big!” in Para 2. He means ______.
A. the bucket to put your dream should not be too small
B. you need to list as many things you want to do as possible
C. the things you need to list are extraordinary not simple
8. From ______, we can know why we need to make a bucket list.
A. Para 1 and Para2                B. Para 2 and Para3                C. Para 3 and Para 4
