阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事，词数80左右。
Several years ago I had given some cash to a girl I met by chance because she needed some work done to her car．About a month later she sent me a card thanking me for helping out and repaid me，which I had never expected from her．The $200 she gave me was nice to have，but honestly was not needed．
About a week after I had been given this cash，I ate out．Then I noticed a homeless man sitting at a table next to me．He was taking shelter from the terrible weather we were having at the time，but was warned by the waitress that he couldn't be there if he didn't order anything．He asked how much a cup of coffee was，counted the few dollars he had in his pocket，and unwillingly ordered a coffee so that he could stay inside．
Hearing all of this，I thought of the $200 cash and felt this could be someone I could help．I went up to sit beside him and told him that if he felt comfortable accepting my offer，I would buy him whatever food on the menu he wanted．He refused because he didn't want to trouble me and put me out of money．
I strongly suggested he accept my offer．I told him everyone deserves a warm meal．He eventually accepted it but just ordered something simple．During the meal，we had a conversation—I learned he was 45 and had previously worked as a driver．Unfortunately，about a year earlier he fell while working and badly hurt his back．He was no longer able to work until his back recovered．
When I stood up to leave，he thanked me for the meal and the conversation．______________________________________________

When I stood up to leave，he thanked me for the meal and the conversation．I shook his hand，looked him in the eye，and handed him the $200．I told him he was a good man who had had some terrible luck and nothing more．He burst into tears and asked for my address or phone number so he could repay me some day．I told him that I was once in a bad spot and someone helped me，and that if he wanted to repay me，just try to do as much as possible to help someone else who needed help．
Ⅰ．阅读理解
A
Last year，Abraham Olagbegi got the news that he got a disease and needed a bone marrow transplant (骨髓移植)．About a year later，the 13-year-old boy got much better news: His transplant was successful，and he could join Make-A-Wish，an organization that helps fulfill wishes of children with serious illnesses．
课时分层作业(六)
That was when Abraham shared an idea with his mom．“I remember when we were coming home after seeing his doctor，he said，‘Mom，I thought about it，and I really want to feed the homeless，’ ” said Abraham's mom，Miriam Olagbegi．“I said，‘Are you sure，Abraham You could do a lot...You're sure you don't want to play video games？’”
However，Abraham was uninterested in the PlayStation．Instead，in September，Make-A-Wish helped Abraham organize a day to hand out free food in Jackson，Mississippi — the food and supplies were donated by local businesses．They were able to feed around 80 people that day．
“When the homeless people get the plate，some of them would come back and sing to us and thank us，” he said．“And it just really feels good．It warms our hearts．My parents always taught us that it's a blessing to be a blessing．”
Abraham's efforts are not over just yet — Make-A-Wish will help Abraham feed the homeless on the third Saturday of every month for a year．This will last through Aug．2022，but Abraham already plans to keep it going much longer than that by starting the organization “Abraham's Table”．
“We're just very excited to be able to continue on this attempt，” Abraham's mom said．“If I was out there on the streets，I would want somebody to think of me and to do something special for me．So，that's what I try to teach my kids and we just try to pay it forward，by doing what we were raised to do．”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Abraham Olagbegi在患重病后得到Make-A-Wish组织的帮助，并在康复后希望回报社会，尤其是帮助无家可归的人。文章描述了他如何组织免费发放食物的活动，并计划未来通过成立Abraham's Table组织来继续他的慈善事业。

B．He realized his mom was right．
C．He is thankful for others' support．
D．He felt sure he had fully recovered．

A small recording room outside the Congolese capital Kinshasa has become a safe space for homeless teenagers．They sing about their life on the streets and dream of a better future．The homeless sing about their childhood，living conditions，and living experiences at the Mokili Na Poche cultural center．It is a safe space that allows young people and children to wash and eat．
“It really makes me happy when I sing，” said 19-year-old Mavakala．He has slept on the streets for years．There are more than 20，000 homeless children in Kinshasa．Other teenagers looked on with happiness as Mavakala turned on the recording equipment at the center in late August．
Mavakala dreams of bigger goals after having the chance to record in a real recording space．He said，“It stimulates me and I tell myself — ah，life belongs to brave persons．” He added that U.S．rapper Lil Wayne and Congolese star Fally Ipupa influenced his music．
He has been coming to the center for the past three years，taking part in the music，art，and reading classes it offers throughout the day．Founder Cedrick Tshimbalanga hopes these skills and daily experiences will help the children build a base for their life and their voices．
“With music，young people are able to talk about their daily experience — everything they live through daily: happiness and sadness，” said Tshimbalanga，who plans to release their music soon．
The classes are also a chance for young people to make up for lost chances in life．While the Democratic Republic of Congo has made progress in education，over 7 million children aged between 5 and 17 still do not have schooling，UNICEF found．
“Break free from the homeless life，my friend．It's time to see what the future holds for you，” Mavakala sang during an excitement-filled performance at the center in August．
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了刚果首都金沙萨市一个名为“Mokili Na Poche”文化中心的地方，为无家可归的年轻人提供安全的居所，并为他们提供音乐、艺术和阅读等课程，帮助他们重塑生活，以期改善他们自己的未来。

6．What does the underlined word “stimulates”in paragraph 3 mean
A．Encourages． B．Worries．
C．Surprises． D．Warns．
A [词义猜测题。根据画线词前面的内容以及后面的内容可知，在有机会在真实的录音棚录音后，Mavakala梦想着更大的目标，因为这能够激励他自己不断前行，并且他告诉自己生活是属于勇敢的人。故推断画线词与A选项“Encourages(鼓励)”为同义词。故选A。]
√

B．To prevent poor children sleeping in the street．

The Greatest Scientist in My Heart
Madame Curie was a world famous woman scientist，who was born into a teacher's family in Poland in 1867 and died in 1934．
From her early childhood，she loved to study and hoped to become a great scientist．She finished middle school at the age of 16．At 24 she left for Paris and entered Paris University．In Paris she lived a very simple life and studied very hard．Madame Curie devoted her whole life to the study of science．She won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 and in Chemistry in 1911．
It is not easy for a woman to succeed in her work．It is even more difficult for a woman to win the Nobel Prize twice in her life．So Madame Curie will always be remembered as a great woman．

“It really makes me happy when I sing，” said 19-year-old Mavakala．He has slept on the streets for years．There are more than 20，000 homeless children in Kinshasa．Other teenagers looked on with happiness as Mavakala turned on the recording equipment at the center in late August．
Mavakala dreams of bigger goals after having the chance to record in a real recording space．He said，“It stimulates me and I tell myself — ah，life belongs to brave persons．” He added that U．S．rapper Lil Wayne and Congolese star Fally Ipupa influenced his music．
He has been coming to the center for the past three years，taking part in the music，art，and reading classes it offers throughout the day．Founder Cedrick Tshimbalanga hopes these skills and daily experiences will help the children build a base for their life and their voices．
“With music，young people are able to talk about their daily experience — everything they live through daily: happiness and sadness，” said Tshimbalanga，who plans to release their music soon．
The classes are also a chance for young people to make up for lost chances in life．While the Democratic Republic of Congo has made progress in education，over 7 million children aged between 5 and 17 still do not have schooling，UNICEF found．
“Break free from the homeless life，my friend．It's time to see what the future holds for you，” Mavakala sang during an excitement-filled performance at the center in August．

The Greatest Scientist in My Heart
Madame Curie was a world famous woman scientist，who was born into a teacher's family in Poland in 1867 and died in 1934．
From her early childhood，she loved to study and hoped to become a great scientist．She finished middle school at the age of 16．At 24 she left for Paris and entered Paris University．In Paris she lived a very simple life and studied very hard．Madame Curie devoted her whole life to the study of science．She won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 and in Chemistry in 1911．
It is not easy for a woman to succeed in her work．It is even more difficult for a woman to win the Nobel Prize twice in her life．So Madame Curie will always be remembered as a great woman．
