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。
In 1989,fresh out of high school,I had the difficult task of choosing a career path 
before  college  started  in  three  months.In  those  days  in  Pakistan , there  were  limited 
options:becoming a doctor or an engineer,or entering the financial world after getting 
a business degree.I wasn't interested in engineering,so that I was left with medicine or 
business.I couldn't decide.
My uncle,one of the elders in the family,suggested that I do a work placement to 
experience  it  for  a  month  in  an  international  company  followed  by  a  month  in  a 
hospital.After that,I could make a decision.It seemed like a brilliant idea.
I was accepted for a month's placement at a foreign bank in Karachi.I got a feel for 
how the world of finance functioned,made new friends,and generally enjoyed the 
mostly easygoing work surroundings.
The  month  passed  rapidly , and  soon  I  began  working  at  a  leading  hospital  in 
Karachi.The experience couldn't have been more different.The hospital had an intense 
environment.The days started early(at 7 a.m.,compared to 9 a.m.at the bank),and were 
filled with endless duties.And the night calls!This was crazy,working all day,through 
the night,and again the next day.
I began thinking about my two experiences.The bank had offered a more relaxing 
atmosphere,better working hours and less stress.The hospital was full of excitement 
and  unpredictability , but  the  studying  and  training  were  difficult.It  seemed  that  the 
business option was going to win out.
Near the end of my month at the hospital,I was driving home after an especially 
busy night call.In front of me was a public bus,with college students sitting on the 
top.As the driver weaved through(穿梭) traffic,I could see the boys shaking from side 
to side.

Suddenly,a boy fell off the back of the bus.                                                                        
                                                                        
                                                                        
                                                                        
                                                                        
                                                                        
                                                                        
Paragraph 2:
The next day,when I went to hospital to see the boy,all his family got up,with 
grateful smiles on their faces.

Paragraph 1:
Suddenly,a boy fell off the back of the bus.He hit the road face down and rolled 
over.He lay motionless in the middle of the road as the bus sped away.None of the cars 
behind the bus stopped.In fact,I felt the same urge to keep going,but the urge to stop 
and help was stronger.Knowing that he could die in a matter of minutes,I stopped my 
car  and  carefully  examined  the  body.With  the  help  of  some  passersby , I  lifted  his 
unconscious  body  into  the  car  and  raced  back  to  the  hospital . After  his  family  was 
contacted,and he was wheeled into emergency surgery,I drove home,exhausted.
Paragraph 2:
The next day,when I went to hospital to see the boy,all his family got up,with 
grateful  smiles  on  their  faces.The  mother  held  my  hands  to  her  face  and  started weeping.“Son,you are an angel!”she repeated.What a feeling this was,to help save 
the life of another person!I spent the rest of the day in a state of excitement,the most 
fabulous  mood  I  had  ever  experienced.  Driving  home  that  evening , I  knew  what  I 
wanted to do for the rest of my life.Two months of placements could not do what 30 
minutes  helping  an  accident  victim  had  done  for  me.We  spend  a  lot  of  our  time 
wondering what path to take in our lives.This experience taught me that at times,these 
decisions are made for you—and that whatever happens is always for the best.

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。
Long ago,there was a big apple tree.A little boy loved to come and play around it 
every day.He climbed to the top of the tree,ate the apples,and took a nap under the 
shadow.He loved the tree and the tree also enjoyed playing with him.
As time went by,the little boy grew up and he no longer played around the tree.
One day,the boy came back to the tree,appearing sad.“Come and play with 
me,”the tree asked the boy gently.
“I am no longer a kid;I won't play around trees anymore,”the boy replied,“I 
want toys.I need money to buy them.”
“Sorry,but I don't have money.However,you can pick all my apples and sell 
them.Then,you will have money.”The boy was so excited that he picked all the apples 
on the tree and left happily.The boy didn't come back after that.
The tree was upset.
One day,the boy returned and the tree was so joyful.“Come and play with me,”
the tree said.
“I don't have time to play.I have to work for my family.We need a house for 
shelter.Can you help me?”“Sorry,I don't have a house.But you can cut off my 
branches to build your house.”So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left with 
delight.
The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy didn't appear since then.The tree 
was again lonely and sad.
One hot summer day,the boy returned and the tree was delighted.“Come and 
play with me!”the tree requested.“I am sad and becoming old.I want to go sailing to relax myself.Can you give me 
a boat?”“Use my trunk to build the boat.You can sail and be happy.”So the boy cut 
the tree trunk to make a boat.He went sailing and did not show up for a long time.

Paragraph 1:
Many years later,the boy finally returned.Feeling tired,he went to see the apple 
tree.At the sight of him,the tree said regretfully,“I'm sorry,boy,but now I no longer 
have anything for you,no apples,no branches,no trunk.”“It doesn't matter.I have no 
intention  of  getting  anything  from  you  this  time.As  you  know , I'm  getting  old  and 
nothing is better than a comfortable place to rest,”said the boy.Hearing this,the tree 
smiled with relief,adding,“My dying trunk is the right one for you.Please come here and have a seat.”The boy did as was told and the tree burst into tears,due to the fact that 
she could still devote herself to her boy.
Paragraph 2:
The apple tree is our mother.When we are young,she tries her utmost to take care 
of us and play with us.When we grow up,we leave her for some reasons and only come 
back when necessary or in trouble.But she is always there,waiting for us and ready to 
offer what she owns without complaint.Never does she ask for rewards,instead,it is our 
happiness that she desires for.So,try to put ourselves in her shoes and learn to show 
concern for her.

This story happened to me many years ago but I can still remember it well.When I 
was fresh out of school and working in Denver,I was driving to my parents' home in 
Missouri for Spring Festival.On my way,I found that my car was running out of gas.So 
I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City,where I was planning to 
stop and visit a friend.While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台),I said 
hello  to  a  couple  who  were  also  paying  for  gas  and  they  responded  with  their  warm 
smiles.
I took off,but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back 
of my car.My car just broke down.What a trouble!I stopped and was wondering what 
I should do next when a car pulled up behind me.It was the couple I had spoken to at the 
gas station.They said they would take me to my friend's.We chatted happily on the way 
to the city,and when I got out of the car,the husband gave me his business card.
Upon arriving home,I wrote to him and his wife a thankyou note for helping 
me.Soon afterwards,I received a Spring Festival present from them.In their note they 
said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.
Years later,I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in an early morning.The road 
condition was quite poor on the way and it was said that cars broke down frequently 
there.Anyway,I got there safe and sound.After the meeting,I returned to my car and 
found  that  I'd  got  a  flat  tire.I  was  at  a  loss  when  I  noticed  that  the  Friendly  Ford 
dealership—a shop selling Ford cars—was right next door.I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.

Paragraph 1:
I  entered  the  shop , and  one  of  the  salesmen  came  to  me.I  couldn't  believe  my 
eyes.The two salesmen happened to be the couple,and they were the owners of the 
Friendly  Ford  dealership  as  well.What  a  coincidence ! “Hey , it's  me ! You  ever 
offered me a ride,remember?”I exclaimed excitedly.“Sure,we do!”overjoyed,
the man laughed.“We run the shop not only to sell cars but also to help travelers in 
trouble.You know,it makes our life more meaningful!We want this Friendly Ford 
dealership to be really friendly just as its name indicates.”Then I told them the trouble I came across this time.
Paragraph 2:
After a while,they quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it.Once 
again,they solved my trouble.Then,they told me that after receiving my thankyou note,
they  felt  that  the  true  happiness  came  from  helping  others.To  help  more  people  who 
came across troubles on this bumpy road,they ran this shop to sell cars and to help 
those unlucky guys as well.
