As Hurrieane lan bore down on Florida，many residents who decided to stay found themselves unable to leave.
When the water slipped in under the door of their home in Naples，Florida，it was just a sign that it was time to go.
It was around noon on Wednesday，September 28 last year and Darcy Bishop woke up her two brothers who had been resting after lunch.She pulled the wheelchair up to the oldest，Russell Rochow，66.Her other brother，Todd Rochow，63，was in his room，changing clotjye.ais.He could manage with a walker.
Both men had been born with disabilities，and their mental development was like that of a young child.But they found joy in their surroundings.Russell loved riding the bus and going to parks.Todd liked collecting cans at the beach and playing on the boat in the neighbor，Hance Walters' home.Bishop，61，was their lifeline，their little sister who had long felt a duty to keep them safe.
"We've got to get going!" she shouted to Todd.She went to open the front door.It would not move.The weight of the water on the other side had shut it tight.
She rushed to try the door to the garage，where Todd's walker was stored.It，too，was stuck.
That's when the house the three brothers shared began to flood.
The only way to go was up.
Bishop guided Todd to the stairs，and he grabbed the banister（欄桿）.She helped him pull himself slowly up to the top where he waited in a chair.
But stairs were impossible for Russell，who could neither walk nor bend his stiff legs.
Bishop dragged on the belt around Russell's waist，but he was nearly 77 kilograms.She tried every position possible，switching from pushing to pulling，and managed to get him up a few carpeted steps.
But the water followed.
Bishop called 911 and was told someone would come soon.But out the window she could already see furniture，boats and cars floating by.

【答案】Meanwhile，Bishop was crazy and desperate.She would pull Russell up one step，only to see the water rise with them.Her nervousness was comforted by Russell's funny behavior.Grabbing the banister，he counted the pictures on the wall."Look，Darcy：one，two，three，four.""That's very good，Russ，"Bishop said with tears rolling down her cheeks.It took them a good hour，but they finally made it up eight steps to the first small landing，then three steps to the second，and then a handful of steps more.She sat down beside him，and waited.
At around 6：30 p.m.，Russell said，"Somebody's downstairs."Full of hope，Bishop called out，"Hello？!Hello？!Who's there？"It was her neighbour，Hance Walters.Learning she was in trouble，Walters went to his house and fetched a boat.Bishop tried to bring her brothers outside.There，they were lifted into the boats.Todd and Russell are safe.They have not said much about the sufferings they survived，only that they want things to return to normal."I don't want no more hurricane，"they both repeated.

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.
