In muscular strength(肌肉力量), my dad is the strongest. Who plays musical instruments best? Oh, it's my sister. And when it comes to communication skills, it seems that I can never do better than my mum. But recently, I have discovered one "strength" of mine—making cakes. Perhaps you think making cakes is not special. Many people know how to make a cake. However, my cooking way is quite different from othersˈ. Since I don't have an oven at home, I use the rice cooker to make cakes. The first time I used the rice cooker to make cakes, I put too much flour. As a result, the cake was too sticky(黏糊糊的). But my mum and dad thought it was very special. They said I did a good job. To encourage me, they ate up the whole cake. After that, I tried again and again. Finally, I made a wonderful cake using the rice cocker. It smelt as good as it looked, and it tasted good too. You may have eaten a lot of cakes, but have you ever tried a cake made using a rice cooker? I don't have powerful muscles and I can't play musical instruments very well, but I am now proud of the fact that I know how to cook cakes with a rice cooker—something that few people can do. So everyone can be special and have special experiences. Every single day can be special! 26.When the writer has problems with her communication, who can give her some advice? A. Her father. B.

I learned cooking from my mother because she was really interested in teaching me how to cook. The main reason for this was that when she grew up, she didn't know how to cook anything, even an egg. My grandmother never allowed(允许) her to stay in the kitchen when she was cooking. My mother started to cook when she was 25 years old. At the beginning, it was very hard for her. So, she had to take cooking classes. After having that experience(经历), she decided to teach me how to cook because she didn't want me to have the same experience. I remember when I was seven years old, and my mother was cooking, I was with her in the kitchen enjoying cooking. I always helped her. Sometimes we cooked meals that my mother knew how to make, and sometimes we cooked meals from recipes. Nowadays, I am really thankful for that experience. I will do the same with my children because I don't want them to have the same experience as my mother. If one day I am not with them, I want to be sure that they can live a better life. 41.The writer's mother learned cooking ________.
