This short intermediate story tells of a girl who must travel alone to her grandfather’s house.
今天晚上妈妈对我说：“我要上班了，你得自己去爷爷家吃饭。
” 我正想对妈妈说我从来没有独自去过爷爷家。
可是，我的话还没说出口，妈妈就跑的无影无踪了。
所以，我只能硬着头皮，穿过黑黑的街道，走到爷爷家。
我很害怕，所以走的特别快，见到邻居也没有打招呼。
直到看到爷爷，我才放松下来。

Tonight, my mother said to me: “I am going to work. You must go to your grandfather’s house to eat.” I wanted to tell my mother that I had never been to my grandfather’s house alone. However, no words came out of my mouth and my mother scurried away without a trace. Therefore, I could only brace myself and go through the dark streets to my grandfather’s house.
I was scared, so I walked very fast and didn’t say hello when I saw my neighbor. I didn’t relax until I saw my grandfather.
