(2023·江西省高二统一调研测试)It was Christmas Eve when my sister and I decided to open our presents before our mom got home from work.
She usually came home about an hour after we got home from school, which we thought was plenty of time to sneak a peek (偷看) at the gifts under the tree.
Since my sister was older, and that put her in charge, she opened the first gift while I was ordered to stand guard at the big picture window in our front room. I was to report any suspicious (可疑的) activity or persons, namely our mother.
Finally, when my sister's curiosity was satisfied and she had finished wrapping her last present back up, we changed places.
My heart beat so fast that it felt like my chest was moving in and out. My sister reminded me to be careful so I wouldn't tear the paper, and to wrap the present back up the same way that I had found it.
After unwrapping a few presents, I found it faster to open one end of a present and peek inside. Cool! Mom and Dad got me headphones for my stereo! I pulled the headphones out of the box and was about to put them on when my sister shouted, “Quick! Wrap it back up! Mom's coming!”
My heart hit the floor along with the headphones. My body was as frozen as a snowman. I shoved the headphones back in the box but my hands were shaking so much that I tore the paper trying to wrap it back up. My sister was yelling at me, which only made my hands shake more. I heard the door opened. I thought I was going to wet my pants!
I had just finished burying the package with my headphones in it when my mother came into the front room. I jumped up and said, “Hi, Mom!” She smiled at me and said “Hi,” back, but didn't appear to suspect a thing. My heart began to slow as I took a deep breath. That was close. Too close!
