When I was a kid.I was always eager to know what was inside the colorful boxes under the Christmas tree But when that curiosity was satisfied beforehand,fun would be absent.

One Christmas Eve, my sister Tina and I decided to peek at our presents before our mom got home. Since Tina was older. and that put her in charze. she opened the first present while I was ordered to stand zuard at the big picture window in our front room. I was to report any suspicious activity or person, namely our mother.

I was so excited that I could barely stand still.I couldn’t keep my eyes on the window very long, either. My head moved from the window to Tina and back to the window again.I felt like I was watching a Ping-Pong match.

“All right!”Tina shouted.She pulled out an empty jewelry box.“You know what that means don’t you?" I jumped up and down.“Yeah,it’s my turn!”

"No”she said. “It means that there must be some iewelry under here."I watched my sister search through the presents under the tree trying to find one she thought was small enough to be a necklace or earrings.

“Hey, that’s not fair!”I protested stomping my foot.

“Are you watching for mom?”was all that she said.I couldn’t do anything except stand guard as she opened present after present.Finally,when she had finished wrapping her last present backup, we traded places.

My heart hammered so hard that it felt like my chest was moving in and out.Tina reminded me to be carefu so I wouldn’t tear the wrapping paper.

After unwrapping a few presents,I found it faster to open one end of a present and peek inside.“Cool!Mom and Dad got me headphones (耳机)for my stereo!”I exclaimed as I pulled them out of the box.

范文：

I was about to put them on when Tina shouted that Mom was coming. I shoved the headphones in the box and tried to wrap it back, but my hands were shaking so much that I tore the wrapping paper. My heart pounded harder as I tried to get the tape to stick. “Just shove it under the tree!" my sister shouted as she ran to stall my mother. I had just finished burying the box when mom came into the room. I jumped up and greeted her. She smiled at me, but didn't appear to suspect a thing. That was too close!

The next morning, Tina and I pretended to open our presents as if nothing had happened. “Mom, thanks for the fancy jewelry!” my sister exclaimed and gave Mom a big hug. I put on my headphones and yelled, “It's just what I wanted.” And we smiled as Mom took photos for us. Yet we didn't have much fun.I don't know if it was that opening our gifts for the second time just wasn't as much fun as the first time, or if we came too close to getting caught and didn't want to think about what our mother would have done to us. Anyway, we never opened our Christmas presents early again.
