Analysis of the plot
I woke up with a start and looked at the clock in front of me — 5:00 am. The whole night I had been dreaming and planning various things I wanted to do. After all, it was my 16th birthday!
Yesterday, none of my family had shown any sign to indicate that they’ d remembered the fact that my birthday was only 24 hours away. They might have been planning a surprise for me!

Analysis of the plot
I raced downstairs. “Well, you’ re up early,” my dad said, his eyes fixed upon the newspaper. My mother, who was cooking breakfast, paid me no attention.
“Have they forgotten about me?” I wondered. “No, they would never do that.”
“Mama, I was wondering if you could cook me some pancakes,” I said in a cheerful tone. “Jessie, I am in a hurry today. I am afraid I don’t have time to make you pancakes,” my mother said.
Analysis of the plot
None of them seemed to be aware of my special day. At least for my sake, they could’ve given it some importance. And none of my brothers seemed to be interested in my birthday either.
I felt a bit down. For months we had been planning events for my birthday — shopping, games, decorations and so much more— but now, they all seemed to have forgotten about my birthday.
I felt a bit down .

Analysis of the plot
Disappointed, I climbed up the stairs to my room and lay down in bed. Suddenly, Mom called out to me. I dashed (急奔) towards her, hoping to hear something cheerful. But my optimism (乐观) disappeared when she said, “Me, your dad and your brothers are attending a dinner. Since you woke up early, we thought you might need some sleep. If you feel hungry, there’s food in the fridge. Call if you need help. Bye, and be a good girl.”
