I wasnt sure where I belonged. I found it hard to fit it.On a Monday morning, our teacher assigned“a secret friend”for the coming week. She wrote each Kids name on a piece of paper and threw them into a jar; then we each closed our eyes and drew the name of a classmate who we were to secretly befriend and support over the next five school days. By the middle of the week, everyone, including me, had turned this assignment into a contest to see whose secret friend could leave the best gift. We left bubble gum, pens and even money. It seems that everyone was getting cool presents from their friends except me.On the last morning of our assignment, when I walked into my classroom, something on my desk caught my eye. As I came closer, I found there sat a can of perfumed powder. “ Oh, my God, it's an old lady gift that I had received!” I thought to myself. Whats worse, the powder had already been opened. I felt my face turn red as I put it into my desk.I tried to forget about the embarrassing gift, but when I was in the bathroom during the break, the girls who had seen me open the power started talking trash about my secret friend of giving it to me. I quickly joined in.“How terrible,”I heard myself saying angrily, “What could my friend be thinking by giving me such a stupid gift ? My grandmother wouldnt even want it.” The girls laughed at my remarks and filed out of the bathroom. I stayed to wash my hands and let the water run through my fingers as I thought about what I had just said. It wasnt normally like me to say mean things like that about someone.注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；Paragraph 1:Suddenly my classmate Jenny rushed up to me,_Paragraph 2:Along with my apologies, I told her the fact. （三）Whether we notice it or not, our child is a little reflection of ourselves. They grow up looking more and more like us. They even have similar personalities and hobbies. And in some cases, the standard of choosing a good friend. One day, my 10-year-old Jane said, “Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow?” Her words made me extremely happy because Jane was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell. “Sure, honey, that sounds great.” I said, thinking back to my own childhood best friend, Susan. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy and had trouble making friends. But Susan drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile. Thanks to Susan, I was happy every day. In senior high school, Susan went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. “Ill be back soon and I will write to you as soon as I arrive.” She told me. But I didnt get her phone call nor receive any mail from her. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey, making my hope of seeing Susan impossible. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes. The next day Jane brought her new friend home. “Hi, Mrs. Smith,” the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she gave me a big smile. “My name is Jo. My mom will pick me up two hours later.”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。Paragraph1：I was puzzled because my daughters new friend looked so familiar. _Paragraph 2: Two hours passed really quickly, and there was a knock on the door._（四）When a tornado touched down in a small town nearby, many families were left completely ruined. One Sunday,a particular picture especially touched me. A young woman stood in front of an entirely ruined home. A young boy, seven or eight years old, stood at her side, eyes downcast. Clutching(紧握) at her skirt was a tiny girl who stared into the camera, eyes wide with confusion and fear. The article that went with the picture gave the clothing sizes of each family member. With growing interest, I noticed that their sizes closely matched ours. This would be a good opportunity to teach my children to help those less fortunate than themselves. I taped the picture of the young family to our refrigerator, explaining their difficulty to my sevenyearold twins, Brad and Brett, and to threeyearold Meghan.“These poor people now have nothing,” I said. “Well share what we have with them.”I brought three large boxes and placed them on the living room floor, encouraging the boys to go through their toys and donate some of their less favorite things. Meghan watched seriously, as the boys and I filled one of the boxes with canned goods and foods that they no longer needed.Meghan walked up with Lucy, her muchloved doll, hugged tightly to her chest. She stopped in front of the box, gave her doll a final kiss, then laid her gently on top of the other toys.“Oh, Honey,” I said. “You dont have to give Lucy. You love her so much.”Meghan nodded seriously, “Lucy makes me happy, Mommy. Maybe shell make that other little girl happy, too.”Para. 1：The boys had watched, openmouthed, when their sister placed her favorite doll in the box._Para. 2：I looked at my children for a long moment._（五）When Ruth was sixty-eight years old, she visited her daughter Judy and teenage granddaughter Marcy in California. They headed for their cabin, moving forty miles up and down the mountains in their car,along a narrow one-lane road that wound terrifyingly close to cliffs (悬崖).After dinner, Marcy announced the water tank was low and that she would drive the car down to the pump and get water. Ruth was nervous about her young granddaughter driving down the narrow road by herself, but Judy reminded her that Marcy had been driving vehicles up there roads for many years“Just be careful, Marcy”, her mother warned. “Theyve had a drought up here and the road along the cliff is pretty shaky. Be sure to hug the mountain side.”Ruth and Judy watched Marcy from the big window where they could see the road winding down the mountainside. Fifteen minutes later, Judy was still watching when suddenly she screamed,”Oh no! She went over the cliff, Momma! The car and Marcy-they went over! We have to help her!Come on!”Judy took off running desperately. Grabbing a three-foot-long walking stick against the cabin door, Ruth ran behind her, but Judy was quickly out of sight after the first turn in the road. Breathing hard, Ruth ran on and on, trying to catch up with her daughter. It was getting harder and harder to see anything at dusk.Suddenly she stopped, not knowing where she was.”Marcy!Judy!”she shouted.A faint voice .”Momma!”It was Judy.Ruth screamed into the darkness “Judy,where are you?” Off to her right and down the cliff she heard, “Down here,Mother!Dont come near the edge! I slipped on loose rocks and fell over. Im down about ten feet.”“Oh dear! Judy, what can I do?”“Just stay back, Momma!”Facing the situation, Ruth felt her heart was pounding, and chest pains almost took her breath away. She started to sob, totally at a loss what to do.注 意：1. 续写词数应为150左右： 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。At that moment, Ruth glimpsed at the walking stick, an idea striking her._Ruth held her close and said anxiously. “Judy. We have to get help for Marcy!”_（六）Lungs nearly burst. I struggled to lift my head out of the water. Inch by inch, my tired body reached the end of the pool.The extent of my swimming career was purely recreational, while the competitive swimmers nearby thought nothing of the seemingly simple task of a 500-meter swim test. Pushing myself to finish what I had started, I could only think: why not take the easy way out?Earlier that week, I had turned in my first job application at a local pool. Overqualified, I was hired on the spot. However, the tasks were boring: helping confused visitors and measuring the height of children before they went down the slide (滑梯).I was capable of more.So a swim test was required, establishing the mere fact that I was not completely helpless in a pool. Midway through, the manager administering the test remarked, "This looks really easy for you. Why aren't you applying to become a guard?”“The thought didn't cross my mind.”"Well, lifeguarding demands more responsibility, strength and respect. Thus the position pays $ 2 more per hour. Your swimming skills are strong enough. All you need to do is complete a certification class."Inside I was unsure of myself, but his words inspired me You never know what you are capable of until you force yourself to do it.Soon I passed the swim test. All left was to practice and learn first aid, CPR （心肺复苏）,and procedures for different land-based and water-based emergencies.Work started soon. A well-intentioned yet anxious feeling in me soon passed. Days, weeks, and months went by without incident; emergencies were rare. The skills and training I had so carefully studied and acquired seemed unnecessary.Today appeared to be another uneventful day. However, shortly after the other guards signaled to the children to exit the pool, I noticed one boy was still in the middle while the others had climbed up.注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150词左右；2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；Paragraph 1:''Something must have gone wrong with him," I thought to myself. Paragraph 2:Having the boy on the floor, I put my ear to his mouth and my fingers at his neck. （七）Holidays are not necessarily for fun or rest. Doing something meaningful can also gain special pleasure. When the final bell rang, the students were reminded that there was no school on Mondaythe Labor Day. “Enjoy your extra day off,”said the teacher to her class.An extra day of fun suited Kayla just fine. She loved breaks. She wanted to go out to play with her friends. When the school bus dropped Kayla off, she ran into the house happily.“How was school, Kayla?” asked her mom.“It was great, Mom. I am excited about no school on Monday. ”“You just started back to school two weeks ago. Already in need of a break, huh?” asked Kaylas mom with a laugh.Kayla slept in the next morning. Saturday was her favorite day of the week. It rained most of the day, so Kayla enjoyed playing video games inside. On Sunday, her friends came over and they played basketball for several hours.Then it was Labor Day, you know, the extra day off that Kayla was so looking forward to. But Kayla was awakened early that morning by her dad. He told Kayla that in honor of Labor Day, the family would be cleaning both inside and outside the house. Kayla couldnt believe it. This was a holiday. A day when she was supposed to be enjoying freshly squeezed lemonade while playing in her tree house. As Kayla wiped her eyes, she began to wonder if this was just a bad dream.“Kayla, your breakfast is ready. We have a lot of work to do today. Lets get a move on, ”said Kaylas mom. As she sat down at the kitchen table, Kayla asked her parents, “Are you serious about working today? Isnt Labor Day a holiday?”“Yes, Kayla. It is, ” replied her dad. “But your mom and I thought working hard today would make you appreciate why Labor Day was observed in the first place. ”Paragraph1：At first, Kayla felt disappointed at her parents plan for the holiday._Paragraph 2：But things began to change as she was doing the chores._
