    We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude.

    Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. Kind and caring, she always seemed to make people comfortable in her presence. For years she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home to help with her until I hit my preteen years. Suddenly, I was too caught up in my adolescent world to worry about helping others.

    One particular summer day when I was twelve, Mom came into my room and told me to get up and meet her at the car. I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything? Eventually, I made my way outside. I imagined the lake water cooling my skin. Annoyed, I climbed into the car and slammed the door shut. I sat in silence, too upset to make a conversation.

"Tasha, would you like to know where we are going?" Mom asked calmly.

    "I guess…" I murmured under my breath.

    "Sweetheart, we are going to a children's shelter. I have been there before and I think it would benefit you," she explained.

    I felt a knot slowly form in my stomach. How was I supposed to help there?

    When we reached the shelter, I was rather surprised. It was a large white Victorian home. As we approached the large front porch, wind bells played a calming tune while trees and blossoms welcomed us. Maybe this wasn't going to be so bad.

    Mom rang the doorbell. The door flew open and we were led to the front room, where all of the children were playing. Toys were spread out across the floor. I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with wounds. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars (伤疤) such as cuts and burns. What a terrible life they had had before they moved here! My heart sank.

举一反三
读后续写,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。
    Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn't help weeping sorrowfully when she thought of the scolding from her mother. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat, but it was not possible for her, since she had nothing with her. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.
    The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, "Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles?"
    "Oh, yes...but I don't have money on me…" she replied.
    "That's nothing. I'll treat you today," said the man. "Come in."
    The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently.
    "What is it?" asked the man kindly.
    "Nothing, actually I was just touched by your kindness!" said Jenny as she wiped her tears. "Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so merciless compared to a stranger!!"
    Hearing the words, the seller smiled, "Girl, do you really think so? I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times she cooked for you? Have you expressed your gratitude to her?"
    Jenny sat there, speechless and numb with shock; she remembered mother's familiar face and weathered hands. "Why did I not think of that? A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel indebted, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me."
    On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

When I was nine, I needed to earn some money, so I asked Mr. Miceli, the newspaper publisher in my Chicago neighborhood, about an after-school paper route. He agreed only if I had a bicycle. My dad bought me a used bike, but right after that he fell ill and couldn't teach me to ride. Mr. Miceli, however, merely asked to see the bike. So I walked to his garage, showed it to him and got the job.

At first, I filled my delivery bag with rolled papers over the handlebars and walked my bike down the sidewalks. But pushing a bike with a load of papers was awkward; after a few days I borrowed Mom's two-wheeled shopping cart.

It took me longer to make my deliveries by cart, but I didn't mind. I sent each paper to its proper destination. In rain or snow, I put Dad's old raincoat over the cart to keep the papers dry. I got to meet everyone in the neighborhood—working-class people of Italian, German or Polish origins who were always kind to me.

When Dad returned from the hospital, he was too weak to restart his original job. Now we needed every penny we could raise to pay bills, so we sold the bike. Mr. Miceli must have known I wasn't using a bike, but he said nothing about it to me.

On the Thursday evening before Christmas, I rang my first customer's doorbell. Even though the lights were on, nobody answered, so I went on to the next house. No answer, nor did anyone respond at the next family on my route, or the one after.

I was very worried; I hadn't got the money for newspaper delivery this week. And while it was almost Christmas, I never thought that everyone would be out shopping. So I was very happy when, going up the walkway to Mr. Gordon's house, I heard music and voices. I rang the bell.

As I stood in line waiting to pay for the things I bought at my favorite supermarket, I studied the customer in front of me who was reading the magazines to our left. She was young, maybe in her early twenties, but she looked tired-as if life had beaten her down too many times.

The things in her cart included the cheapest cuts of meat, rice, and potatoes. Powdered milk, day-old bread,bargain soap, and inexpensive shampoo completed the things she bought-well, almost. There were also lots of instant noodles and a pretty dress that was 50 percent off.

She continued to look at the magazines as we waited, and more people lined up behind us. She finally took one out and turned it over several times,trying to find a price before finally turning to me.

"I'm sorry to trouble you,"she said."But can you tell me how much this is? I left my glasses at home. ""Of course," I said with a laugh.

When I finally found the small print and told her, she sighed quietly and put it back."They've become so expensive, haven't they?"I said in a low voice.

"Next!"The cashier called before she could answer, and she moved forward to begin her tun. When the store employee finally told her the cost, the woman's face paled(变苍白).She opened an old purse and began counting small bills and change. It was clear that she didn't have enough,and she examined her things to see what she could do without.

One by one, she took things out, but she still came up short. She continued taking things out while the cashier waited patiently. The man right behind me complained loudly enough for all to hear, and the young woman's face reddened with awkwardness. I wanted to pay for her things outright,but I knew that would embarrass(使尴尬) her even more.

"Take your time,"I added gently as she tried to decide what other things she could return."I'm in no hurry.

The woman finally paid and my turn came to pay the bill.

 短文续写

William's upbringing took place in the vibrant yet challenging environs of Miami. His paternal progenitor oversaw a commercial enterprise dedicated to the trade of marine life in the Florida Keys, an endeavor in which William actively participated. The act of angling was an integral component of their existence. His father was wont to remark, "The pursuit of fishing is a tranquil endeavor, akin to a respite from the world's tumult."

Motivated by the wisdom imparted by his father, William established a philanthropic organization in Lakeland, Florida, that facilitated angling excursions for numerous youths. The organization's mission was to mentor economically disadvantaged children, often absent the guidance of paternal figures, in the art and sport of fishing.

In the course of the laborious weekdays, William was employed in the commerce of tire sales. However, during the respite of weekends, he, along with a cadre of volunteers—predominantly drawn from his own workshop—would shepherd approximately two score of young charges to partake in the angling activities along the nearby riverbanks. To ensure the safety and enjoyment of the angling experience for the children, he had previously orchestrated specialized training for his team in the disciplines of fishing and maritime navigation.

William took it upon himself to personally extend invitations to local abodes, beckoning the young ones to join in the angling sojourns. Many of these children had never before ventured onto a vessel or engaged in the act of fishing, thus William, or "Big Will," as he was endearingly known by the youngsters, commenced with imparting the fundamental principles of the sport. Subsequently, he imparted the life lessons that fishing could impart: the virtue of patience, the spirit of camaraderie, and the unadulterated pleasure of repose in the great outdoors. The fishing organization facilitated over six hundred such outings, engaging with nearly two thousand children who were devoid of paternal companionship in their formative years.

Naturally, William's magnanimous spirit garnered widespread acclaim within the societal sphere. Upon elucidating his philanthropic mission to Captain Jack, the overseer of a maritime vessel in Clearwater, the captain, in a gesture of solidarity, extended a favorable proposition to William. Consequently, the philanthropic fishing organization was able to reduce the expenditure for their weekend maritime ventures. The children were further inspired to practice the principle of releasing the juvenile marine life. During a recent voyage with children from a communal dwelling, William retained a selection of the larger fish, subsequently savoring a delectable fish stew with the children at the evening repast.

William continued to scour the community for youngsters in need, generously sharing his ardor for fishing with them. He articulated, "My sole aspiration is to demonstrate my concern for their well-being and to assure them of my steadfast support." Numerous children availed themselves of multiple outings, thereby enabling William to cultivate enduring relationships with them.

注意: (1)续写词数应为150左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

One day,William noticed his eight-year-old neighbor,Camron,sitting sadly in front of his door. 

……

Big Will's reputation was growing,and the nonprofit fishing organization attracted more sponsors besides Captain Jack.
