Grandma was busy cooking in the kitchen and Sera was always to be here for dinner.
There were many photographs of past and present1members and many other old things on her grandma’s table. Among them, she especially loved the large clay pot (陶壶). It was beautiful, painted in many colours.
“May I hold it?” asked Sera.
“Yes, but please be2 . It is very old.” Grandma picked up the pot with gentle hands, gave it to Sera, and then went into the kitchen.
Sera decided to sit on the sofa. The sofa was a few feet3her. She went backward.4a toy truck was there. The truck rolled (滚动) away when Sera stepped on it. She fell back onto the sofa. The clay pot5out of her hands and up into the air! It landed on the floor.
Sera could hear the clay crack (裂痕). “No, no!” she cried. She heard grandma’s footsteps coming toward her. How could she face her grandma now?
“It’s not so6 , Sera,” Grandma said. “Come on. You can repair the pot.”
“Let me tell you a story about that pot.”
Grandma pointed to another crack in the pot. Sera had never7it before. “My grandma made this crack when she was about your age,” said grandma. “She was carrying it back to the village8it fell onto the road. It had been full of9 , so she got all wet!” She pointed to another crack. “This crack came when I dropped the pot on a big boat that brought10here from Canada,” said grandma smiling. Sera laughed and held up the pot. She could see now how each crack had become part of the colourful design--and part of her family’s story.
