The dining room was full of memories. Amy’s grandfather kept many fine dinner plates from his hometown. Amy remembered that they ate from the red, yellow, and blue plates during important holidays.
After carefully wrapping up (包裹) the plates and putting them into a box, Amy lifted it up and moved it to the new house. But the box was too heavy. It suddenly fell from her arms and dropped to the floor. All three of them heard the plates shatter (破碎).
