Question

【題目】 Darryl thought his friend Julia had such a cool mother. She would drive Julia and Darryl anywhere they wanted to go: movie theaters, swimming pools, ice cream shops. Darryl's own mother worked in a laboratory all day, doing research. Even on weekends, she read some science books. Daryl loved the way his mom could explain mysterious things about the world and always had interesting stories to share. But sometimes he wished he had a mom who was a little more…well, fun.

One Saturday, Julia and her mom picked up Darryl at his house. They were all going to a big amusement park, Darryl said goodbye to his mom, who was reading.

"Isn't your science project due (預期的) Monday?" she asked him.

"It's almost done," Darryl said, walking out of the door.

At the amusement park, Julia's mom treated them to popcorn and hamburgers. They all challenged each other to go on the fastest, most exciting rides in the park. They laughed and screamed all day long.

Darryl woke up with a bad headache Sunday morning. He was unhappy at the thought of finishing his science project. He heard his mother making breakfast, the same breakfast she made every Sunday: a vegetable omelet (煎蛋餅) and fresh fruit. Usually Darryl wanted a doughnut for breakfast, but the thought of more junk food made him sick. His mother's healthy cooking was just what he needed after such a loud and busy day.

After he ate, his mother helped him finish his science project. When Julia called later, asking Darryl if he wanted to come by, he said no. Maybe next weekend he would be ready for more fun, but not now.
