阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

    I went up to the roof for a break after studying for an hour and watched the 50 or so people swimming in the natural rock pool below our house. It was a sunny day-a blue, cloudless sky over a calm sea. But then, as I looked in the distance, I discovered a series of three or four big waves heading towards the shore. I'd seen these mini- tsunamis(海啸) many times before. They were heading at speed in the direction of the pool. Most people knew how to look out for them, but from the screams that started coming from the beach, I could tell someone was in trouble.

    Without thinking, I ran down into the street, holding my body board(俯伏冲浪板) on the way and shouted at a stranger to go inside my house and call the coastguard. My neighbor Moises had heard the screaming as well and was also outside with his body board, so together we rushed to the steps that led down to the sea.

    Once we got closer, we discovered the waves had pulled a boy and a girl from the pool and into the open sea. I knew that the nearest boat would take at least 30 minutes to reach us. Waiting for help wasn't a choice. I wasn't used to this sort of emergency- I'd never been trained as a lifeguard-but I didn't think twice about trying to save them. I supposed in a way I wanted to impress everyone: at 19, a deal like that can seem like a good opportunity to show off.

    Moises and I dived into the water and it took us 10 minutes to get to them. When we finally reached them, they were almost lifeless with only their heads coming in and out of the water. We could tell they were still alive from their small breaths but it was clear they wouldn't have been able to stay there much longer. I hold the boy and pulled him over my board. Moises moved the girl on to his board. We discussed pushing them back to the shore, but we were too far out.

    We had to wait,

   

    That night, word came from the hospital that the two people were in good condition.

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

    On a bright, warm July afternoon, Mac Hollan, a primary school teacher, was cycling from his home to Alaska with his friends. One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair, but they had encouraged Mac to carry on, and they would catch up with him soon. As Mac pedaled (骑行) along alone, he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters at home. He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday.

    Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. “Man, that's a big dog!” he thought. But when he looked to the side, he saw instantly that it wasn't a dog at all, but a wolf, quickly catching up with him.

    Mac's heart jumped. He found out his can of bear spray. With one hand on the bars, he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal, and to Mac's relief, it fell back, shaking its head. But a minute later, it was by his side again. Then it attacked the back of Mac's bike, tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and again, it fell back only to quickly restart the chase(追赶)。

    Mac was pedaling hard now. He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to show down. He saw a steep uphill climb before him. He knew that once he hit the hill, he'd be easy caught up and the wolf's teeth would be tearing into his flesh.

    At this moment, Paul and Beeky were driving their car on their way to Alaska. They didn't think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road. A bit later, they spotted what they, too, assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike. As they got closer, they realized that the dog was a wolf. Mac heard a large vehicle behind him. He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast, just a dozen yards away now.

What comes first: the optimism or the good health?

    Optimism, defined as the general expectation that the future will be favorable, could provide ways to improve health, some researchers believe. But scientists remain unsure if optimism goes ahead of health improvements, or vice versa.

    A recent study suggests that most people can't help but to think optimistically. This study was conducted by Ed O'Brien, a social psychologist at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. The findings suggest that people have a natural tendency to think positively about their future.

    Participants were asked to create a list of imaginary personal experiences that would make them happy or unhappy over the course of the next year. They then ranked how difficult it was to plan that list and how happy they believed they would be in the future overall. The easier it was for people to think of positive future experiences, the happier they imagined they would be. However, there was no relationship between easily developing negative future experiences and expecting to be unhappy as a result.

    O'Brien concluded that people seem to discount the possibility that future negative events will make them happy overall, suggesting that optimism might come more naturally. "We're not as used to thinking about the future in terms of things that are going to go wrong." O'Brien's study is one of many to find that people are consistently optimistic about their future, predicting pleasant experiences and discounting unpleasant ones. If optimism may lead to better health and people generally tend to think optimistically, what does this mean for the connection between mental and physical health? "If we can make sure that optimism comes before healthy states, we might be able to involve and improve people's optimism," Boehm explained. However, it's difficult to determine what comes first: the optimism or the good health.

 书面表达

In the month of October each year, a festive air envelops our community as we host a Halloween costume competition. Annually, my neighbor Ollie and I engage in a spirited dash to the proclamation board situated within the park to discover the designated motif for the event. In one memorable instance, the theme was "Adorn yourself as the character from a beloved literary work." In another, it was "Embody something that incites dread." However, the year in question presented us with a rather ambiguous directive.

"Be inventive?" I inquired aloud, scrutinizing the proclamation board. "That scarcely qualifies as a theme, does it?"

Ollie alighted from his skateboard to examine the board more intently. "You've hit the nail on the head," he concurred. "I believe the 'Superheroes' theme was my all-time favorite. I was so enamored with my Super-Force Flying Eagles attire that I've preserved it in my wardrobe for several years!"

"My favored theme was 'Agricultural Creatures,'" I chortled. "Do you recall your adamant insistence on portraying a Stegosaurus?"

"When I was but five years of age, dinosaurs captivated my every thought," Ollie chuckled. "I would have been thrilled to envision a Stegosaurus mingling with the bovine herd in a pasture."

"Now that's the kind of imaginative vigor we require for this challenge!" I declared. "Perhaps, since our aspirations are not yet clearly defined, we ought to initiate our preparations by selecting some intriguing materials for our costumes."

"Eureka!" Ollie proclaimed, gathering an assortment of fallen foliage.

"Indeed?" I responded, taken aback. "You intend to construct an entire costume from leaves?"

"Why not?" he retorted, collecting more foliage. "They're utterly gratuitous, and I can assure you, no one will don a tree costume as magnificent as the one I'm envisioning."

"Do you mean, a tree as magnificent as ours?" I offered with a smile.

"Ah, firstly, that grammatical construction doesn't quite ring true," Ollie remarked. "And secondly, absolutely not! Conceive your own original concepts."

"Ah, come now," I implored. "You should feel honored that I hold your idea in such high esteem. Moreover, I've just devised the perfect method for fabricating branches."

Ultimately, after some deliberation, Ollie acquiesced to the idea.

Jon's Pajama Problem

Oh no, he had done it again. He'd forgotten something important. Last year on their family trip to his uncle's cottage for Christmas, he had forgotten the bag with the toiletries (洗漱用品) in it. Neither he nor his brother had toothbrushes or toothpaste or shampoo. He'd had to borrow from his cousins who were not thrilled to share, and Jon was not too thrilled that his hair smelled like strawberries all week.

The year before, Jon had left the marshmallows and graham crackers at home, so they had no mores for the evening fire and annual reading of "The Night Before Christmas". They had to nibble on (小口咬) some stale (不新鲜的) crackers instead. His cousins still teased him about that.

And now, Jon couldn't believe he had forgotten to pack his pajamas. At home, that wouldn't really be a problem: he had extra pajamas. But at the cottage, there were photographs dating back for years and years of Jon's family on Christmas morning in front of the tree in their pajamas. Jon was feeling awful. He would be the first one to break the family tradition ever. Would he ruin Christmas for everyone? What could he do?

He didn't want to tell his parents. He went looking around the cottage, and found an old T- shirt. That could work. He tried putting it on, but it was too small. He tried to stretch it, but it must have been washed 100 times, and it ripped when he pulled on it.

At this point, Jon was getting desperate. He snuck into his brother's luggage, trying to find some spare pajamas, only to find himself in trouble when his older brother caught him and yelled. His brother hated it when Jon messed with his stuff.

Then his brother told their parents. 

Then came the next morning. Jon's mother said. "Before we take the Christmas photo, I have a special gift for someone."
