Answers to August Sunshine reading questions

The Sunshine of August

As soon as August entered, Xiaoxia and Xiaoqiu went to the dirt road in front of the village every day to wait for letters. The dust on the dirt road is very thick, and the August sun has cooked the layer of foam, and you will get a few blisters when you step on it with your bare feet.

Finally one day, two letters came from Pan. One letter for Xiaoxia and one letter for Xiaoqiu. After the two anxiously read the cover of the letter, they then looked at each other's. Xiao Xia said: "The ones in Beijing are better than mine." Xiao Qiu said: "The ones in Shanghai are not bad either." The two brothers vented their anxiety for half a month with laughter.

Xiaoxia opened the letter, and Xiaoqiu also opened the letter, forgetting the scorching sun above her head. Xiaoxia was startled, and Xiaoqiu was also stunned.

Later, the brothers went home half happy and half sad and read the notice to their parents. My father said, "How much money does it cost to go to college?" My mother just sighed.

In August, cotton has not yet reached the market season.

The father and son were divided into three groups and returned home late at night. The money they raised and borrowed was not enough to cover one-tenth of the cost. The two brothers went to school and emptied their money. There was nothing valuable at home. The mother had no choice but to sell a fattening pig.

The days in August are getting fewer and fewer, and there is still a big gap between Xiaoxia and Xiaoqiu’s school expenses. That day, they went to school. The principal and head teacher were very sympathetic, but there was nothing they could do. They had to write a letter to the township government in the name of the school, asking them to find a solution.

After running around under the scorching sun for three days, my father returned home with a 2,000 yuan loan borrowed from the township government, and suddenly fell to the ground and fainted. Ten days of hard work and anxiety made this tough guy, who had worked in the sun for half a century, lay down.

The cost of schooling is not enough for one person, and there are not many days left in August.

Unexpectedly, the postman delivered a remittance order that day, 1,000 yuan, from the school. There were only a few small words in the official column: "Congratulations! All teachers donated." My father got up from the bed, and my mother quickly handed over the remittance slip. My father's lips wriggled and he could not make a sound.

The fee is only enough for one person, and the days will not stop. The people in the hut immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. The three of them stared at their father on the bed. His father suddenly sat up and said: "There is only one way now. You are all sensible and you can decide for yourself. Otherwise, you can draw lots."

Xiaoxia and Xiaoqiu suddenly looked like two sculptures! ,

As if a century had passed, Xiaoxia raised her head and said: "Xiaoqiu, go ahead, your school is good." Xiaoqiu also raised his head: "No, I am one year younger than you. Brother, go ahead."

At this time, no one noticed Xiaoxia's slight movement. He reached into his pocket, took out the admission notice, and tore it into pieces. After Xiaoqiu came to her senses, she hugged Xiaoxia and said, "Brother!" Tears burst into her eyes.

On the last day of August, Xiaoxia went out with 200 yuan for travel expenses. He went to work in the south. Her parents owed a lot of debt, and Xiaoqiu had to pay a lot for school.

Under the August sunshine, Xiaoqiu stood by the dirt road at the end of the village, looking at the deep line of footprints on the foamy dust...
