1．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。
For my fourteenth birthday, my mom offered to take me and several friends to the city near our small town to visit a mall, eat pizza in the food court, and then catch a movie. Afterward, we would all return to my house for a slumber party (睡衣晚会). It was just the kind of celebration a teenage girl longed for.
On the awaited day, all the friends I’d invited to join me on this birthday trip attended school — except Nora. When it came time to climb aboard the bus and ride together to my home, she still didn’t show up.
I felt confused. Then I felt mad. Why did she tell me she’d come to the party and then break her word without letting me know? By the time we returned to my house, I decided to call Nora.  When she answered, I demanded to know why she had forgotten my birthday celebration. “It’s my birthday!” I declared. “You’re not coming to my party, and you didn’t even let me know. What kind of friend are you?”
Nora explained that she had to stay at home because she was sick.
“OK, so you’re sick ... but how was I supposed to know if you didn’t tell me?” I answered.  The conversation only grew more heated from there. By the end of it, Nora could only sob sadly as we both hung up the phone.
At the mall that night, all of us had a great time. I hardly gave Nora or her absence from our fun another thought.
At school on Monday, I avoided seeing her. For the rest of the school year, we barely spoke to one another. I started high school the following year. Our friendship had been relegated (降级) to the past. It happens sometimes, I figured, so I just shrugged it off (不在乎).
Years later, I discovered that Facebook had suggested Nora as a friend. We’d attended the same schools, came from the same town, and had many friends in common; it made sense. It was at that moment that I began to reflect on that ugly phone conversation I’d made with Nora all those years before.

Recalling what had happened that day, I felt a deep regret for what I had done for the first time.

2．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。
The day began as usual, with my husband, Alan, entering his office in our home to catch up on paperwork and participate in conference calls. He had worked his way up the corporate ladder (阶梯) and now managed multiple stores for a national restaurant chain. From my spot in the kitchen, I could hear him speaking on the phone to his boss. Suddenly, I overheard words that seemed unusual. When he exited his office moments later, my fears were confirmed. Alan was fired. I hugged my sweet husband as my heart sank, and my mind raced. What were we going to do? Would we lose our house if we couldn’t afford to pay our mortgage (房屋抵押贷款)?
“We’ll be fine,” he said.
“I know,” I responded.
But, frankly, neither one of us was very convincing.
I wanted to go back in bed and pull the covers over my head, but I had to get to my own job. So, I quickly showered, dressed, and made my way to work. I was a few hours into my shift when I received a call from the surgeon’s office. I had been noticing some strange lumps (肿块) in my neck, and he’d been in the process of performing several tests to figure out the cause.
“It’s lymphoma (淋巴瘤). You have cancer,” he stated, way too matter-of-factly. I distinctly remember my precise response, “What?” I must have misheard. It sounded like he said I had cancer, but that was completely funny. I was a healthy runner.
Cancer was out of the question. Wasn’t it? The surgeon repeated those terrible words. It was true: Cancer was in my body.
Alan pulled me into his arms when I arrived home, and I cried as he held me tight. “Someday in the future, we’re going to write about today,” he whispered in my ear, “and we’ll call it Worst Day Ever. But we had to be strong and do something.”

3．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。
I looked up from my desk to see the teacher writing on the board: “Battle of the Books!” She smiled and said, “This time it’s a teamwork. You’re going to be in teams of two, and set a reading goal. Every team that meets their goal by the end of the month will get a prize!” The lunch bell sounded before she could explain any more rules.
As I gathered my things, Liya passed my desk and said, “Teammates?” Since Liya and I shared the same interest in graphic novel(漫画小说), and we took Hindi language class together, we teamed up automatically. I was both relieved and excited to have my team. Then we got to the cafeteria and quickly threw out a bunch of ideas of what to do at our table.
I looked to our third friend Kash, with whom the three of us always do stuff together, “Kash, do you have ideas for us?” “Why would I give you guys ideas?” he said gloomily(阴沉地). “I’ll save that for my team...whoever that is. Now I see how I rank in the friendship lineup.” Kash replied in an angry tone.
I knew he was mad for a reason. If I were him, not only would I think that I ranked last in that group, but I’d also be panicking about what team I could join. But now, I was on the inside and Kash wasn’t. I felt like the only way to fix this would be three people on a team. So, as the teacher walked by our table, I asked for her permission. What surprised me was that she had intended to draw names to assign random groups, but didn’t get a chance to say it before lunch.
Awkward and frustrated, we were stuck in this dilemma. Having first teamed up without Kash didn’t mean we didn’t like him. I knew we—especially I—wouldn’t be able to enjoy any prize if our friend felt bad about being left out. So, I decided to do something to make it up for him and convince Kash he was an equal friend.

From high up in his skinny apartment building, Pieter could see the canal stretching in all directions. Every Saturday, Pieter watched for Grandpa riding toward the building on his bicycle. But today, Pieter knew that his grandfather wouldn’t come. Pieter would not hear the ring-ring of Grandpa’s bicycle bell. And there would be no Saturday afternoon picnic in the park. Last week, Grandpa had a knee operation, Now he needed a walking stick to provide assistance―and Pieter didn’t know if Grandpa would ever ride his bike again. Sighing with worry, Pieter was lost in thought. Would he ever again hear the ring-ring as Grandpa approached?
That’s when Pieter had an idea. He grabbed his birthday money-l0 euros-from the top dresser drawer. Then he hurried to tell Mum his plan. A few minutes later, Pieter ran down the stairs of his building and burst into the afternoon sunshine. His bike was waiting for him. Pieter wore his helmet and pedalled down the bumpy road, Ring-ring sang his bicycle bell to alert walkers that he was coming. He pedalled past the hardware(五金) store in the corner. He pedalled past the window washer who whistled a she worked. And he pedalled two more blocks before arriving at the market. He loved the market’s sights and smells.
Pieter’s euros clinked(叮当响) in his pocket a she walked through the market, examining each table. He stopped at a fruit stand, chose two shiny apples and paid two euros. Then he stopped at the cheese table and asked for half a pound of cheese, handing the waiter three euros. Pieter placed the items in his bicycle basket and pedalled back toward home. Imagining his Grandpa walking toward him joyfully accompanied by the ring-ring sound, Pieter whistled a merry tune.

5．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。
Our church congregation (集会) in Toronto has a way of assisting those who have financial difficulties without making the receiver feel shame or guilt. Money is dropped into an offering box with only the name of the receiver on the envelope. The envelopes are then distributed to those members without them knowing the name of the giver.
There came a time when my husband and I were among those in need. Both of us lost jobs at that time and there was little hope that we could be employed within a short time. Of course, out of self-esteem, we did hot talk about our financial difficulty with anyone else. The only reason our children knew was that we had to cut back on many things. Still, we hoped they were not aware of the extent of our need, nor of how much then father and I were suffering because of it. We did not want to burden them with a problem they could do nothing to solve.
With time going by, our situation wasn’t improving, and my husband and I knew that we would have to look for outside help. In that cold winter, just as we reached the point of despair, our church gave us a gift envelope that had been left in the offering box. You couldn’t imagine how overjoyed we were on receiving such a very substantial amount of money, which was enough to bring us through that desperate time. We couldn’t help but wonder who had given such a generous gift. We were extremely relieved and enormously grateful. In this way, we could survive daring this tough period with the money. Besides, we needn’t worry about our son’s university tuition, that is, he needn’t apply for any loan (贷款) because he had taken a part-time job and worked hard to earn some money since he was nine years old. He had been a paper carrier for The Toronto Star, a car washer, a dishwasher and so on. He had been careful for his small earnings so we had trusted him to leave all his wages with him instead of putting it into the bank towards his education.
Paragraph1：
A year later, our son was applying, for a student loan.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph2：
Finally, in tears, my son told me he had put his savings in the offering box for us.

6．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。
It was Christmas Eve morning, and I awoke with a mission: to find my lost cat, Baby-Girl. As I got ready, I could hear icy rain pelting the windows. Baby-Girl was out there somewhere in the storm; I could just feel it. Sure, it had been a couple of weeks since she’d gone missing, but I still had faith. This was the season for miracles, after all.
About two weeks aga, my sweet kitty disappeared from my parents’ house in my hometown. Baby-Gil had been staying with them while I was between apartments. At the time, I lived and worked in another city. I was saying with fends until I rented my own house. Baby-Girl had gotten out of my parents’ house the day before I was set to drive back home to pick her up.
My dad and I had spent that entire visit searching for her. Dad was a “realist”, which meant he spent a whole lot of time trying to prepare me for the worst. “She’s either been hit by a car or been taken in by someone who found her,” he said. I rolled my eyes. He could do with a little more faith!
Besides, though I couldn’t explain it, I knew I’d see Baby-Girl again. She could survive all on her own. If any cat could do the impossible, it was my Baby-Girl. Even after I returned to my house without her, deep down I had this undeniable feeling that we would be reunited one day.
Now, home again for the holidays, I was determined to pick up my search right where I’d left off. I grabbed Baby-Girl’s cat carrier and loaded it into the car, then asked my dad to drive me to the shelter.
At the shelter, a staff member took us to see the cats. We walked through rows of cages. My eyes scanned cats of all colors and sizes. None of them was my Baby-Girl. Then I noticed a room farther back. I pushed ahead. “Sweetheart, that’s where they keep the cats that just came in,” Dad said. “Your cat wouldn’t be in there.”

I insisted it didn’t hurt to look and stepped into the room.

7．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。
As the late afternoon sun beat down on his farm in Missouri last May, Brandon finished feeding his cows and decided to go home. As they often did, his two sons, Louie, 7, and Everett, 5, followed closely.
As they headed for the house, the two boys ran ahead of their father, who stopped to close the gate. Louie paused at a board covering an old well. The board had, over time, become easily broken. When Louie stepped on it, it caved in and he fell into the well. Brandon had just close the door when he heard a cry for help. He turned around and found his younger son Everett standing alone beside the well, pointing to it and screaming.
Brandon quickly realized what had happened. “No, Louie can barely swim,” he panicked, his mind almost going blank. However, he knew he should calm down. He ran to the well and heard Louie hitting the water. Without thinking, he jumped in. Somehow, Brandon managed to grab on to a pipe that ran down the side of the well. He hit the cold water at the bottom of the well and lifted Louie up as he stuck his own legs and back against the narrow walls for support. “All right, Dad, we can climb out now,” Louie said.
If only it were that easy!
The pipe that he’d grabbed during his fall was too slippery to be of any use. There was only one way out. Looking up to see Everett looking down at them, Brandon shouted, “Everett, you’re going to have to be a big boy and save us. Run to the road and stand by the mailbox until someone stops. Tell them we need help. And Everett, stay off the road.”

Twins Katie and Sarah Monahan arrived at Pennsylvania’s Gettysburg College. They are determined to strike out on independent paths. Although the 18-year-old sisters had requested rooms in different dormitory, the housing office placed them on the eighth floor of the same building, across the hall from each other.
Katie was a very lovely and kind-hearted girl. She always did her best to prevent others from any problem. Once the dormitory was out of electricity and her roommate, Windy was studying in the classroom only leaving Katie alone in the dormitory at that time. Katie had just finished her favourite horrible American TV series. She felt very scared. But she didn’t want to disturb Windy, so she just stayed in the dark dormitory alone till Windy got back to the dormitory. Windy was a nice girl too. She gave Katie a lot of comfort and care. She would like to make Katie relax after stressful study. She often shared her happiness with Katie. They lived a very happy life together.
While Katie got along with her roommate, Sarah was having difficulty in dealing with the relationship with her roommate.
Sarah liked quiet, while her roommate, Lily spent two hours a day practising the guitar, or turned up her sound system to the point where the whole room vibrates (颤动). Sarah was always cold. but Lily never wanted to turn on the heat, even though it was snowing heavily outside. Sarah liked wearing fur in winter and she also enjoyed cutting up frogs in biology class. But Lily is an vegetarian (素食主义者) and believed all living things are holy (神圣的), even ants and mosquitoes. She and her roommate silently warred over matters ranging from when the lights should be turned off to how the furniture should be arranged. Finally, they gave up communicating.
One day. there was a dormitory contest, which needed roommates to join hands to decorate their dormitory. Sarah wanted to win in the contest but she thought it was impossible for her to finish it because she didn’t talk with Lily.

Coming out of your comfort zone is tough in the beginning, chaotic in the middle, and awesome in the end… because in the end it shows you a whole new world. — Manoj Arora
“I’m sorry, Lisa, but Debbie and I are going to move back into the house. You’re going to have to find another place to live.”
I couldn’t quite believe what Neil, my landlord (房东), was telling me on that warm April night. I’m going to have to move? But I want to stay right here where I am. This is my home!
I had tears in my eyes, and so did he I had lived on the first floor of his Staten Island two- family house for more than twelve years— longer than I had lived in any place since my childhood home. Ever since I moved back to the New York City area in 2000 Neil had been like family to me.
Originally, Neil lived on the second floor of the house. But a few years ago, he had moved a few miles away into his wife Debbie’s hose. He rented out his old apartment to some young people. But after his company broke, he and Debbie had decided to sell her house and move back here.
Neil had never raised my rent, which was $750 a month, dirt-cheap for New York City. That was part of the problem. Neil was making a lot more money from the new tenants (租户) upstairs, so it made sense for him to keep those tenants and move into my apartment. Now, I was going to have to find a new apartment and pay more. He was very nice about it, and gave me six months to find a new place.
Nevertheless, I was worried. I was so upset that I got into bed, pulled the covers over my head and cried. It was only 8:30 p.m., but I just wanted to go to sleep and forget this was happening.
Around 12:30 a.m., I was so sad that I couldn’t sleep. So I called Jon, my best friend, a very positive person.

10．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。
Christmas was drawing near, and came along with it our favorite moment — the Treasure Hunt.
In the past, my brother Brandon and I had opened all of the packages under the tree. All that was left was an envelope. We knew that envelopes usually contained cards, and if we were lucky, they also contained gift cards or cash.
However, this Christmas my dad looked almost like he’d forgotten about the envelope as he casually handed it to me. I opened it and discovered inside a 3x5 index card (索引卡) with a border of shining surrounding a poem. Of course, I don’t remember the poem by heart, but its rhyming message instructed us to go downstairs. We were excited. Maybe we were getting a pet we had wanted.
What we found downstairs was another envelope, containing another index card with a border of shining surrounding a poem. This poem told us to go to Dad’s car. Was the pet already in the car, ready to go?
No! There was just another envelope containing another shining index card. This one told us to go to Mom’s office downtown. Neither of us was old enough to drive. This meant we had to beg our parents to hurry up and get dressed and finish drinking their coffee and get going.
Eventually, we made it to Mom’s office where we found — you guessed it — a poem telling us to go somewhere else. This time it was to the TV station where Dad worked. By now, our curiosity was stretched to the limits of our imaginations.
We soon found out, however, that such a desk at the studio is a lovely place to keep a 3x5 index card with a poem, which confused us more than any other. It told us to go to an unfamiliar address.
The car stopped in front of the unknown house. It felt like the end of the hunt.

参考答案：
1．Possible version:
Recalling what had happened that day, I felt a deep regret for what I had done for the first time. How selfish, self-centered, and self-absorbed I’d been! I didn’t think about how disappointed she must have been about her absence. I didn’t even ask how she was feeling! Seized with regret, I was desperate to make things right. I sent the friend request that Facebook had recommended. Thankfully, Nora accepted. I immediately started composing an apology letter to her. I worked over the words, checking every phrase over and over again before I finally hit “Send”. I wondered if Nora would even remember me and that ugly phone conversation.
But only a few days later, she responded with a message. It was a message of heartfelt acceptance and forgiveness. After reading it, I felt a heavy load slip off my mind. I reread the message, in which she expressed how she’d missed me after that birthday celebration weekend. Nora had always valued our friendship and it broke her heart that it ended. From then on, we kept each other updated on what was happening in our lives. I was glad that I had reached out to fix my mistake and that Nora was tenderhearted enough to grant forgiveness.

2．One possible version:
We both got right to work. Alan began calling everyone he could think of with possible connections in the restaurant industry. He tirelessly applied and interviewed for dozens of positions. We were able to find a brilliant doctor who immediately began to perform intensive scans and other tests to determine the stage and severity of my cancer. Time dragged on. Our anxiety was high, but we kept our heads up and always looked forward.
It eventually paid off and good news came. Within several months, Alan was offered a new position at a famous restaurant chain, with excellent pay and terrific benefits. And my doctor told me the results were more than encouraging. She explained that my cancer was “lazy, not aggressive like other forms. You will most likely survive this”. Worst Day Ever got rid of all the small stuff and reminded us to value the important things—faith, family and love. Alan and I were blessed with an abundance of these things. We’ll never, ever take them for granted again. Worst Day Ever taught us how to cherish each one, on a much deeper level.
【导语】文章以事件发展为线索展开。讲述了作者及其丈夫在同一天里的“悲惨遭遇”。故事开始于一个平常的日子，丈夫Alan在我们家的他的办公室，忙着处理文书工作和参加电话会议。在此期间，身处厨房的我听到他的老板给打电话告知他被解雇的消息。而就在我即将换班时，接到了医生告知我患了癌症的消息。回到家里，我和丈夫相拥，他在我耳边低声说，这是我们有史以来最糟糕的一天。但我们必须坚强起来，采取行动。

3．That night, I was struck by an idea as I read a graphic novel that all three of us liked. Thrilled and inspired, I sprang in front of my desk, racked my brains and started drawing a few scenes of three of us giggling, chattering and enjoying each other’s company like we usually did. On the last page, I wrote, “Dear Kash, you are not the one left behind. Liya and I are so sorry about the way we messed things up.” Pierced to the heart with guilt, I gingerly tucked the paintings into an envelope, hoping this would be an icebreaker.
The next day, I handed my pages of apology to Kash. He took it, looking surprised at the first sight. After he read it, an expression of intense joy illuminated his eyes. Blushed, I broke the silence, “I’m sorry, dude. We should have talked to you.” With her eyes fixed on the floor, Liya came over and apologized in a low voice, “You mean a lot to us.” Hearing her words, Kash shook his head and beamed, “I was way too sensitive.” We exchanged a knowing smile, realizing that sincerity, trust and communication were always the key to clearing up the misunderstanding between friends.
【导语】本文讲述了老师布置了一个两人为一组的团队任务，作者和Liya首先组成了一队，这让他们的好朋友Kash感到失落和生气，他认为自己在三人好友中排名最后。于是作者决定做点什么，让Kash认识到他是一个平等的朋友。

4．Wearing a bright smile, he stopped halfway in front of the hardware store. He parked his bike, ran inside happily and took out his last five euros from his pocket carefully. It was just enough to buy what he needed. “Sir, I want a bell for my Grandpa's stick.” said Pieter with his eyes shining and his face lightening up. “Here you are, Pieter.” The owner of the shop gave him a delicate bell decorated with beautiful patterns. The instant he received the bell, he added the new bag to his basket and hopped back on his bike.
But instead of heading for home, Pieter pedalled in a different direction. Having pedalled for ten minutes, Pieter arrived at a familiar building. He parked his bike, gathered his bag, and knocked on the door. A man with a walking stick opened it. On seeing Pieter, Grandpa screamed, “Why are you here? You know I can't bike to our picnic.” “I brought the picnic here,” said Pieter. “And also, a gift.” Grandpa took the bag that Pieter offered and opened it. Astonished at what he saw, Grandpa chuckled with delight. Hugging his dear Pieter, Grandpa couldn't help sobbing due to his grandson's act of kindness.

A year later, our son was applying for a student loan. It was then that we discovered that his savings account was almost empty. His father and I were very disturbed by this. What worried me was that he might abuse the money. Therefore, I asked him repeatedly to tell me where the money had gone. At first he would not tell me, which made me even angrier. Nevertheless, I would not let the matter alone. I was continuously questioning him, determined to find out where the money had gone, but in vain.
Finally, in tears, my son told me he had put his savings in the offering box for us. On hearing this, I stood there speechless, tears filling my eyes. It had taken my son years to save that money and he had given it to us willingly - without telling us what he had done. However, I did wrong to him, a kind and caring boy, who carried my husband and me through when we were in trouble. I couldn’t help hugging my son tightly. A warm current welled up in my heart, although it was freezing cold outside.

6．I insisted it didn’t hurt to look and stepped into the room. Suddenly, there came a familiar meow. I followed the sound and my eyes fell on a little cat with big green eyes. She was skinnier than I remembered, but it was Baby-Girl! My eye swelled up with tears. I opened the cage door. Baby-Girl practically jumped into my arms. I held her close as Dad looked on. “There’s just no way…,” he mumbled. The shelter staff were skeptical too, saying the cat had just been brought in during the morning storm.
Sensing their doubts, I was ready to prove she was my cat. I grabbed the carrier. I’d trained Baby-Girl to walk inside the carrier. Sure enough, when she was letdown, she made a dash for the carrier and rushed right inside. I was overjoyed to have her back. It was a miracle that she had managed to survive on her own for so long, and I was filled with admiration for her strength and determination. I thanked my lucky stars that I had never given up hope, and that I had come back to the shelter one last time.

Everett did as he was told. About 15minutes later, Dan and Christi, nearby farmers, were driving by when they noticed Everett alone by the side of the road, waving.

The couple hurried to the well with Everett. “Brandon” Dan shouted, “It’s Dan. We’re going to send a rope down to you.” After several minutes they pulled Louie out of the well.

Brandon knocked on the door, and we waited in anticipation for someone to answer.  After what seemed like ages, the door slowly opened.

We both held the breath in surprise and looked up at our dad, who was smiling playfully.
Dad was standing behind us by then, and "Merry Christmas," he said," The cat's yours." We couldn't believe it.
