"Where did it come from？" Jeremy wondered,reaching into the washer to take out more clothes.【高分句型一】Then much to his astonishment,he pulled out two T-shirts,both in light pink.Realizing there was something wrong,Jeremy stood frozen,his heart sinking.While racking his brain for reasons,he caught sight of the red socks,and it suddenly occurred to him that they must be to blame for the accident.With no means of handling the situation,Jeremy was in such a panic that he even thought of hiding the dress from his mom. "That isn't a positive approach to the problem," he reminded himself.Finally,he decided to dry and fold the laundry before telling his mom everything.（Jeremy发现衣服变色并找到原因）Paragraph2：Holding the neatly folded pink dress,Jeremy nervously knocked at his mom's bedroom door again.Af,ter what seemed like ages,he came to the bedside,his head drooping.Sensing his son's unease,his mother inquired with concern what was wrong.【高分句型二】 "Sorry mom,I shouldn't have ruined your favorite dress." Jeremy apologized.Stuttering out the mistake he had made,he was ready to get a good scolding for his wrongdoing.Realizing what's going on,mom smiled understandingly at Jeremy, "Never mind,dear.I know you meant to help." Then mom held the dress up before her and said in an approving tone, "You know what？I think it looks nice." At this Jeremy beamed with relief,making a silent vow to be more careful in helping his mom out next time.（Jeremy向妈妈承认错误的过程）
