Unit 11 Sad movies make me cry. 单元话题阅读理解练习 （23·24九年级上·湖北武汉·期中）We just moved into a small apartment. Our old house was beautiful and huge. Our home now? Half the size and crowded. There were still boxes everywhere. The day after the move, while the kids were in school, I dealt with some boxes and hung the family photo on the wall. But it just didn’t feel like home. Maybe I could make some chocolate biscuits, just like my grandma used to do whenever I needed cheering up. When I added eggs to my mixer, it suddenly stopped working. “Really?” I felt like crying. What would my grandma do? During those hard times, she used whatever she had to support her family. I didn’t think Grandma would give up easily. She would find another way. So I ran to the remaining boxes. I found Grandma’s old white mixer there! I turned the switch (开关) on…nothing. Ugh! The old mixer that was broken beyond (无法) repair was just like my life these days. “Come on, try again,” a small voice said. I turned the switch back on. To my surprise, the mixer started to work slowly! Two hours later, the kids opened the door. “Mmmm, cookies! Thank you, Mom,” they said, jumping excitedly. For the first time, our new house felt like home. It even smelled like home, just like Grandma’s house always did. Maybe this house wasn’t as big as our old one. But then again, maybe home wasn’t where we lived. It was where we shared the sweet moments and the small miracles (奇迹) of every day. Like a broken mixer that came back to life when I needed comfort most. 1．The writer wants to make chocolate biscuits to __________.
