(B)
Once, a dandelion(蒲公英) grew all by itself beside the road. It felt so lonely and sad. People just passed by without even glancing(瞥见) at it.
One day, a mother was walking with her crying baby. The baby’s cries were getting louder and louder. The mother was at her wits’ end. Suddenly, she saw the dandelion. It looked really pretty in the sun, with its white fluff(绒毛) ready to fly.
The mother carefully picked the dandelion and showed it to the baby. The baby stopped crying right away and stared at it with big, curious eyes. Then the mother blew on the dandelion gently, and the little seeds flew into the air like tiny parachutes(降落伞). The baby laughed and reached out for the dandelion. The mother gave it to him, and he played with it happily.
Now the dandelion knew it could bring joy and didn’t feel sad anymore. It might not be a fancy(华丽的) flower, but it made the baby’s day.
This story tells us that every one of us has a special place. We can all bring happiness to others in our own way.
