I never thought that I understood her.She always seemed so far away from me.I loved her,of course.We shared mutual(相互的)love from the day I was born.I came into this world with a head out of shape because of the hard labor my mother had gone through.Family members and friends wrinkled their noses at the disfigured baby I was.But no,not her.Nana thought I was beautiful.Her eyes twinkled with happiness at the ugly baby in her arms.Her first granddaughter.Beautiful,she said.
Before final exams in my junior year of high school,she died.Seven years ago,her doctors diagnosed Nana with Alzheimer's disease.Seven years ago,our family became experts on this disease as,slowly,we lost her.
She always spoke in broken sentences.As the years passed,the words she spoke became fewer and fewer,until finally she said nothing at all.We were lucky to get one occasional word out of her—beautiful.It was then that our family knew she was near the end.
About a week or so before she died,she lost the abilities for her body to function at all,and the doctors decided to move her to a hospice,where those who entered would never come out.
I told my parents I wanted to see her.I had to see her.My uncontrollable curiosity had taken a step above my nervous and emotional fear.
My mother brought me to the hospice two days after my request.My grandfather and two of my aunts were there as well,but all hung back in the hallway as I entered Nana's room.She was sitting in a big,soft chair next to her bed,eyes shut,mouth hanging open.The medicine was keeping her asleep.My eyes darted(看)around the room at the windows,the flowers,and the way Nana looked.I was struggling very hard to take it all in,knowing that this would be the last time I ever saw her alive.

【考點】讀后續寫.
【答案】I slowly sat down across from her.I took her left hand and held it in mine.I just sat and stared,motionless,in front of her,unable to feel anything.I opened my mouth to speak but nothing came out.I could not get over how awful she looked sitting there,helpless.Then her little hand wrapped around mine tighter and tighter.Her voice sounded like a soft cry in pain.And then,she spoke, "Beautiful."
The word brought back a lot of happy memories.I saw her bringing me roses and smiling with pride.I saw her tap dancing on our kitchen floor.I saw her sitting with me in my living room at Christmas time admiring our brightly decorated tree.I then looked at her as she was,tears full of my eyes.I slowly released her hand from mine and kissed her.And with one long last look,I turned and left the hospice.

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.
