Fiona Simpson，23，was on her way home.She was driving on the D'Aguilar Highwav in Queensland，Australia，It was a long，lonely road，but she had company at least.Her 78-year-old grandmother and four-month-old daughter were with her for the journey.
Clouds started to roll in overhead.Fiona hadn't bothered to listen to the weather report that morning.Mostly because she had expected to arrive home before any sort of downpour hit.As she drove down the D'Aguilar Highway，however，the slight pattering（拍打） of rain began to beat into an angry drum beat upon the roof of the car.
Even though she had been driving quite slowly，she could hardly see the lines in the road.The pouring rain soon became so heavy that her windshield wipers（雨刮器） couldn't keep up.Fiona knew that her only option was to pull the car onto the side of the road until the bad weather lessened.
She stopped the car when suddenly she heard a sound that completely shocked her.The loud bang came from behind her，right near the window where her daughter sat.The glass of the window was broken，and a moment later she discovered that something equally sharp and dangerous was hitting her child.
It was hailstones（冰雹），nearly golf-ball-sized chunks of ice falling from the sky.Hailstones can cause serious damage.Even cattle can be killed as well if they do not seek shelter.Fiona dived into the back seat and tried to form a human shield（擋板） over the baby.Meanwhile，the hailstone was battering the roof of the car so loudly that she couldn't even hear the child crying beneath her.
Queensland had apparently been hit with a super-cell storm that resulted in tennis-ball-sized hailstones.Soon，even Grandma was being battered with the same falling ice.Fiona moved towards the front，still holding her baby in her arms，and tried to shield Grandma as well.Fiona found them caught right in the middle of the storm with nowhere to hide.

【考點】讀后續寫．
【答案】At this time，a truck pulled off beside them.Aware that the people were trapped in the sudden extreme weather，two men on the truck immediately got off and offered to help.They firstly tried to took the crying baby out of the car by sheltering him from hailstones with a protective plate.Shortly after settling the baby on the backseat of the truck safely，they continued to transfer Fiona and her grandmother to their truck.They were told to stay there to wait for the storm to stop.
After quite a long time，the storm passed.All of people on the truck felt relieved.With the help of two men，they got off.Faced up with her own car，whose windows had been seriously damaged，Fiona called for rescue and waited for help.It was not until they were picked up by the rescue workers that the two men drove off.In spite of the terrible experience，Fiona felt so lucky and grateful for the kind act from the strangers.

1．閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭續寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
I grew up in a poor family with six brothers，three sisters，my father and mother.We had little money and few goods，but plenty of love and attention.I was happy and energetic.I understood that no matter how poor a person was，he could still afford a dream.
My dream was athletics.By the time I was sixteen，I could throw a ninety-mile-per-hour fastball and hit anything moving on the football field.And I was so lucky that my high-school coach was Ollie Jarvis，who not only believed in me，but often told me "Dream is priceless".However，when I was about to get off the ground，one particular incident happened，which almost ruined my long-held dream.
It was the summer holiday in senior two and a friend recommended me for a summer job.I was offered ﹩12.25 per hour.Compared with the average ﹩3.5，that was a big sum.I was so excited，because this meant a chance for money in my pocket，certainly money for a new bike and new clothes，and the start of savings for a house for my mojye.air.The prospect（前景）of the job was inviting，and I wanted to jump at the opportunity.
Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball training to handle the work schedule.I didn't dare to tell my coach，I thought of the advice my mother often gave me when I lacked courage， "If you make your bed，you have to lie in it. "I decided to talk to my coach in person.After all，my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his disappointment to me.

2．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 even 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.

3． One day，when I was a first-year student in high school，I saw a kid from my class walking home from school.His name was Kris.It looked like he was carrying all of his books.I thought to myself，"Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday？He must really be a nerd（書呆子）."
I had quite a weekend planned（parties and a football game with my friends），so I shrugged my shoulders and went on.As I was walking，I saw a gang of kids running toward him.They ran at him，knocking all his books out of arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt.His glasses went flying，and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him.He looked up，and I saw terrible sadness in his eyes.
My heart went out to him.So I jogged over to him，and as he crawled around looking for his glasses，I saw tears in his eyes.As I handed him his glasses，I said，"They are bad guys!They really should be punished."He looked at me and said，"Hey，thanks!"There was a big smile on his face.It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude.
I helped him pick up his books and asked him where he lived.As it turned out，he lived near me，so I asked him why I had never seen him before.He said he had gone to a private school before.I would have never hung out with a private school kid before，but we talked all the way home，and I carried his books.
