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。
I was a broke university student. I should have been going to university on a scholarship because I came from a low-income family, but a last-minute 100-a-year pay rise for my mum pushed my family over the threshold (门槛) for what defined “low-income” and I was suddenly no longer qualified for 15,000 a year in scholarship money. This news came after I’d been accepted by the university and signed the lease (租约) for my accommodation.
Despite my family not being labelled low-income anymore, I still wouldn’t receive any financial support from my family as all the income went toward taking care of my disabled brother and paying their own bills. It would be tight, but because I had savings from my part-time job, I decided to go to university anyway. After paying my rent, I had 10.20 a week for everything else including food, toiletries, and school supplies.
As I was in a new city, I really wanted to make friends, which was difficult when most of the social activities were expensive. Therefore, I jumped at the chance to do a relatively cheap coffee shop trip with my roommates who were pleasant to me.
I had 20 with me to get a cheap cup of coffee and my food shopping for a few weeks. So I headed for the coffee shop. While paying, I pulled out the note and a handful of change and realized I could pay without breaking the note, so I put it back in my pocket. It wasn’t until I arrived at the supermarket that I realized the note was gone. What should I do I was desperate it was the equivalent (相等物) of two weeks of money. My roommates helped me look for the note. However, it was in vain. Finally, I went to school empty-handed.

二、伏笔及续写回应

伏笔：家庭收入用于照顾残疾兄弟和支付账单，无法给予主角经济支持。回应：进一步强调主角孤立无援的处境，让他在丢钱后更加无助，也促使他在得到帮助后对善意格外感恩。
伏笔：每周除去房租仅有 10.20 英镑用于所有开销。回应：说明 20 英镑对主角而言是巨额财富，丢失后陷入绝望合情合理，而失而复得时则倍感珍贵，影响后续行为与心态。
伏笔：选择相对便宜的咖啡店之行，且付款时小心翼翼。回应：展现主角的节俭，暗示他深知每分钱的重要，丢钱后疯狂寻找、焦急求助的行为就更顺理成章。

五、写作示范
第一篇
P1: As a final attempt, I messaged the coffee shop’s Facebook page asking if they’d seen it. My heart pounded as I waited for a response, constantly refreshing the page. Minutes felt like hours. Suddenly, a notification popped up. The coffee shop replied that a staff member had indeed found a 20 note. Overjoyed, I sprinted to the coffee shop. The moment I walked in, the barista recognized me and handed me the money with a big smile. I was so grateful that I could hardly speak. I told them about my struggle to survive on a tight budget and how this money meant the world to me.
P2: I said, “Oh,...This isn’t mine; my note was an old worn one.” The barista laughed softly and said, “The person who found it must have wanted you to have a nicer one.” I was deeply touched. Tears welled up in my eyes. From that day on, I vowed to do something kind whenever I could. I started volunteering at a local community center, helping other students like me who were facing difficulties. I knew that kindness was contagious, and I wanted to be part of spreading it.
第二篇
P1: As a final attempt, I messaged the coffee shop’s Facebook page asking if they’d seen it. I paced back and forth, my phone clutched tightly in my hand. Every second seemed eternal. Then, my phone buzzed. The coffee shop informed me that a kind-hearted lady had turned in a 20 note. Elated, I rushed over. When I got there, the cashier handed me the money and said the lady had left a note saying she hoped it would help someone in need. I was speechless with gratitude. I shared with them how I was trying to make friends while barely scraping by financially.
P2: I said, “Oh,...This isn’t mine; my note was an old worn one.” The cashier grinned and said, “She probably thought you deserved a new start.” I was stunned and then filled with warmth. This experience changed me. I joined a campus charity club and dedicated my free time to fundraising for students with financial hardships. I realized that even in my own hardship, I could be a source of hope for others. Because kindness has the power to transform lives, and I wanted to be that power.
【答案】
As a final attempt, I messaged the coffee shop’s Facebook page asking if they’d seen it. Least expecting a reply from them, I logged off with enormous disheartenment and continuous self-blame. How I wished I was careful enough so that the note would not slip out without my notice. However, five minutes, an alert from Facebook broke off my negative thoughts. “Yes, we indeed found a 20-dollar note. Please come ASAP!” The above words from the coffee shop instantly fueled me with energy. Without hesitation, I rushed back with a rapturous heart. Hardly had I entered the shop when a sweet-looking barista handed me a shiny 20-dollar note and asked tentatively, “Sir, is it yours ”
I said, “Oh, ... This isn’t mine; my note was an old worn one.” Beaming a most radiant smile, the barista explained gently that this note was from my most kind-hearted roommates, who, after witnessing my despair and devastation, would like to extend a helping hand. Hearing this, I felt a surge of warmth swelled up in my heart and my eyes were instantly moistened with grateful tears. Yes, life might be hard for me in a new city. But with the unreserved generosity and unwavering support from my roommate, I knew I could pull through any difficulty and rise to any challenge. Indeed, life is not a bed of roses, but love from my roommates make the world go around. Plus, I am bound to pay forward their kindness by helping more needy people like me.
