中考真题2025年黑龙江省哈尔滨市阅读B-行动胜于空想
Helen was a girl who liked wasting time thinking about her tasks instead of doing them at once. Though her teacher advised her to change, she didn't care at all.
One morning,her neighbour Mr. Black, the owner of a fruit shop, said to Helen,"I need some grapes. Could you go to Mr. Green's farm to pick some for me? I will pay you 15 cents a kilo for all that you pick for me. But you'd better go there as soon as possible.
Helen agreed right away and then quickly ran home to get a basket to hold the grapes. After getting home, she couldn't help counting in her mind how much money she would get if she picked five kilos.
After finding that she would get 75 cents, she started to dream big, "If I picked ten kilos, how much would I make then?”
“Wow!”she shouted, “Unbelievable! I would make a dollar and fifty cents!”
Ten minutes passed, twenty minutes passed, and then an hour passed...She still lost herself in her big dream. Before she realized it,it was lunchtime. She had to stay at home to eat lunch.
As soon as lunch was over, she hurried to the farm. However, some boys had been there, and nearly all the grapes were picked. She tried her best but could not find even half a kilo to fill the basket!
All of a sudden, Helen thought of what her teacher had told her, “Do your task at once, and never waste too much time dreaming. One doer (行动者) is worth 100 dreamers.”
