Du Yi, a Chinese miniature artist, used to make models of historic buildings. One day, a friend asked him to make a model of his old home in the countryside. He thought it was meaningful, so he helped. After he posted a short video online, it went viral. He won thousands of followers. Today, he has over 200,000 followers online.
Du often makes the miniature (微缩模型) house 30 times smaller than its real size. It usually takes him one to two months to make a model with the pictures provided by customers. Hundreds of small pieces and about 50 different materials, including wood, paper, and materials straight from nature are used. He often visits the villages to take a closer look at the details. He can spend the whole week studying one building, trying to understand the story, shapes and colors. “I have to be very careful about the details. If they are good, the work will come to life,” Du says. His miniature houses are sold at a starting price of around 20,000 yuan.
“When I first saw the model of my old home, it took me back to my childhood. Grandfather taught me how to farm and make toys from things around us,” says Hao Wei, one of Du’s customers.

As a young child, I was quiet and shy. My parents had to work, so I spent a lot of time at my grandparents’ home.
I was six when my grandfather died. A few months before he died, he gave me a beautiful blue and white blanket (毯子). I loved the blanket very much because it made me think of my grandfather. But after a few years, the blanket didn’t look very good. It had holes and was dirty. I didn’t want to throw it away, so my mother made it into a schoolbag. I liked the schoolbag, and I used it to carry my books to school every day for a few years. Then the schoolbag was broken. I asked my mother to make something out of it. She made it into a pencil box. After a few months, the pencil box was broken, too. By then I could sew (缝), I made the pencil box into a small wallet.
I used it for three years, but one day I lost it. I felt sad. My friends and family said, “Forget about it, Paul. You can’t make something out of nothing.”
I thought about it for a while. I thought my friends and family were wrong. There was a way to make something out of nothing. So I wrote down the story of my grandfather’s blanket.

【答案】例文
Dear Sandy,
Last month, I did some meaningful service work in our school. First of all, I helped my deskmate with his English in classroom. I taught him some good ways to remember new words, and I felt happy to do that. In the dining halls, I helped the workers hand out food and do the dishes. After a strong wind one afternoon, I cleaned the school yard in time and helped water flowers and trees. I felt tired but happy when I looked at the clean and beautiful school yard.

One Sunday morning, I stayed in my room alone. Two of my friends went to the movies the day before, but they didn’t invite me. I was thinking of ways to make them feel sorry when my father came in. He asked, “Do you want to go for a ride today, Judy?” “No! Leave me alone!” Those were the last words I said to him that morning.
In the afternoon, my friends called me and invited me to go swimming with them. I agreed and forgot to be angry with them. When I came back home in the evening, I saw a note, “Dad is ill. Go to Highland Hospital when you come back, Mom.”
As soon as I got to the hospital, my mother held my hand and said, “Your dad has a heart problem. Luckily, he was able to tell his workmates to leave him alone and not to move him. They then called the hospital!” My mother talked a lot, but I only remembered: Leave him alone.
Weeks later, my father was able to go home. One day, I said sorry to him for what I said that Sunday morning. He smiled and said he had already forgotten it. I regretted (懊悔) my words. I never really wanted him to leave me alone.

Most people remember their childhood by looking at old photos or videos. But for some, they choose to remember it by making models of their old homes where they grew up.
Du Yi, a Chinese miniature artist, used to make models of historic buildings. One day, a friend asked him to make a model of his old home in the countryside. He thought it was meaningful, so he helped. After he posted a short video online, it went viral. He won thousands of followers. Today, he has over 200,000 followers online.
Du often makes the miniature (微缩模型) house 30 times smaller than its real size. It usually takes him one to two months to make a model with the pictures provided by customers. Hundreds of small pieces and about 50 different materials, including wood, paper, and materials straight from nature are used. He often visits the villages to take a closer look at the details. He can spend the whole week studying one building, trying to understand the story, shapes and colors. “I have to be very careful about the details. If they are good, the work will come to life,” Du says. His miniature houses are sold at a starting price of around 20,000 yuan.
“When I first saw the model of my old home, it took me back to my childhood. Grandfather taught me how to farm and make toys from things around us,” says Hao Wei, one of Du’s customers.
When a skillful hand meets the need of people, a good business starts.
27. How do most people remember their childhood according to the passage?
