【文章梗概】我在平安夜乘坐“婴儿航班”(从韩国到美国的廉价航空项目),把三个小孤儿送到了他们的养父母那里。在飞行过程中我遇到了一些困难但是同时也得到了很多的人的帮助,到达目的地后两个孤儿被顺利领走,正当我发愁那个患矮小症的婴儿无人认领的时候,最后一对侏儒症的夫妻把孩子抱走了,我欣然目送他们离开迈向新生活,觉得一切都是那么的完美。
I had never held a deformed infant in my arms before.
In fact, I had never even seen a deformed infant before. Now I found myself delivering three tiny orphans to their adoptive parents on Christmas Eve.
I taught English in Korea. College students rioted and succeeded in closing the college where I taught. Fed up, I desired to go home. A friend informed me of the “baby flights,” a program whereby one can travel from Korea to the U.S. dirt cheap. But there was a hitch. The traveler must transport three orphans. The alternative was to pay the full fare.
I found myself boarding a plane with three infants, aged 3 months, 7 months and 18 months. They came with runny noses, wet diapers and colds. As the plane took off, the poor kids howled. The plane vibrated violently and all the babies quieted. Seconds later, the plane stopped shaking and in unison the babies howled. The passengers burst into laughter.
One thing disturbed me. One of the infants was a deformed dwarf. Her massive head with disproportionately minute arms and fingers shocked me. I wondered if her new parents realized what they had coming. But the one on my lap was wet and the milk formula was low. I rapidly learned how to clean a wet bottom, put on a new diaper and stick a pacifier in an open mouth.
Two American soldiers asked if they could each hold a baby.
“No problem,” I said and they both walked off with a baby.
I sat there holding the baby with the very large head. She blinked her long gorgeous eyelashes and smiled. Funny how things like that can change you. From that point on she radiated beauty, and never left my arms.
Before landing in Tokyo, the soldiers handed back the babies. I clung onto my baby and one at a time changed the diapers of the two babies the soldiers had just handed me. As I pulled off their clothes, single dollar bills fell to the floor. I glanced at the departing soldiers. One of them blurted, “Little buggers are gonna need all the cash they can get. Merry Christmas!”
By now I had developed a strong bond with my baby. I even named her Tina. The more I thought about giving her to someone else the more I worried about her prospective parents.
While waiting in the terminal I noticed a young attractive Asian woman pacing back and forth near me. She stared at the babies and me and then walked off. Finally she spun around and confronted me, “Are they orphans ”
“Yes,” I replied.
“I was one of them 24 years ago. May I hold one ”
The lovely woman took the noisiest one of the lot. She carried the child on the plane for the next leg of our journey, and she cared for the infant for the rest of the flight. Occasionally she’d show up and lend a hand feeding or changing the others when she could. After two more stops and a total of 27 hours, the plane landed. New parents rushed in and sped off with two of the babies. I still held Tina and it seemed like nobody was coming on board for her. Worried that no one wanted her I trudged off the plane. Then I saw them and stopped, unable to move. Little hands of a dwarf couple reached up to me.
As I passed Tina down to them, she said “Oma” to me. That means mom in Korean. At that point, I sat and cried.
I watched the delighted tiny family walk off to a new life and thought, “How perfect.”
But the next year I paid the full fare. The baby flight was too expensive.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was an afternoon on the eve of Thanksgiving. The sky was thick with clouds. I had finally finished my month-long business trip to San Francisco and was on my way to the airport to get home for the Thanksgiving dinner with my parents. After what seemed like hours, I finally arrived the airport. It began raining, witch made me even more anxious to get home and enjoy the warmth from my family.
I walked into the hall of terminal(航站楼) and found it surprisingly crowded. Shortly after, I heard the airport announcement that many flights were delayed(延迟) due to bad weather. And there was no certainty as to how long the delay would be. As soon as this announcement was made, the hall was filled with the sound to express their disappointment and helplessness. And it quickly turned the noises from people making a call, probably to tell the person on the other end of the line about the flight delay.
There was a sense of anxiety and worry in the air. I thought many people here were just like me, looking forward to the festive reunion with their families and afraid of missing it due to flight delay. But there was nothing to do but wait.
I just had to seat myself and wait patiently for the arrival of the good news that the flight was resuming(继续).Shortly after I sat down, a group of graceful men sitting opposite me drew my special attention. What they had in common was that they all had a musical instrument with them. It seemed like they were an orchestra(管弦乐队).
Everyone waited for a long time feeling down, and the atmosphere was not relaxing a bit. Then I saw one of them, an elegantly mannered man, stand up. One by one, he said something to his partners in a low voice. Each nodded as he listened. After that, they rose up and walked out of the crowds. I didn’t pay any more attention to where they were going.
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。
Suddenly, out of nowhere came the beautiful music.
The performance won the applause(掌声) of everyone.

Suddenly, out of nowhere came the beautiful music. It suddenly became quiet in the hall except the sound of the music. People wondered what was happening and they all looked in the direction where the music was coming, including me. Amazingly! It was them! The men sitting in front of me just now. They were playing the beautiful music in an open space halfway up the stairs. The terminal looked like a concert stage immediately with the beautiful music that the men were playing.
The performance won the applause(掌声) of everyone. They didn’t mean to stop but continued to play piece by piece. Lost in the music, people there almost forgot their worries for a while. They relaxed and even smiled. Afterwards, their flights were announced to resume. All the people were in great excitement. The graceful man of the band said, “Wish all of us a good journey!” All the people burst into a bigger round of applause in return for the band’s applause in return for the band’s excellent performance and unexpected act of kindness.
