写作一 应用文写作——寓言故事的评论
“Oh, but what good is all this beauty,” cried the peacock,“with such an unpleasant voice!”
“Listen,” said the fox,“each one owns something good: you have such beauty;the nightingale (夜莺) has her songs;and the owl (猫头鹰) has his eyes.Even if you had a sweet voice, you would still complain about another thing.Why can't you just be happy about what you have already got?”

One possible version:
The fable is about a peacock who complained about her ugly voice, ignoring her true beauty. But a fox advised that she be content with what she owns.
After reading it, I understand that we teenagers should make good use of our advantages, stopping complaining about the shortcomings all the time. Had the peacock realised this, she would not have been so upset.
Many people make the same mistake. Take my friend Mike as an example. He often complains that he can't play basketball well because he is not tall enough. He is neither aware of his own merits nor aware of how much we admire him. In fact, nobody can develop very well in all aspects even if he/she is a talent. So we should stay positive and value what we have instead of complaining too much.

One possible version:
I read the fable titled “Waiting for Gains Without Pains” again recently.
A young farmer wanted to eat good food every day, but he didn't like working. One day, while ploughing in his field, he saw a hare bump into a stump by accident and die. He had the chance to eat delicious meat of the hare. From that day on, he put down his hoe, waiting by the stump for a second hare to turn up, but no luck.
The story satirizes those who would rather complain or just wait for luck than make efforts to obtain what they need. I think we shouldn't be that kind of people. It is working hard that is the most precious.

阅读下面的材料,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。
[1]“Have you decided on your major?” my parents inquired.
[2]“Bioengineering, of course.” I responded without the slightest hesitation.
[3]I entered this world with Poland syndrome, a disease that prevented the formation of my right arm and pectoral muscles (胸肌). My parents, believing that playing with toy blocks could enhance my dexterity (灵巧), gifted me my first kit when I was five. Struggling to piece the components together, I crafted my first work—a car. As I got older, I grew obsessed with the mechanical toy blocks set, a more advanced range, and how to use it to build more delicate structures. By the age of nine, I had fashioned my first prosthetic arm (义肢) using the mechanical toy blocks set that perfectly accommodated my right arm.
[4]This early creation sparked my drive for further exploration. Years later, I developed another prosthetic arm that I called the MK-1, which had fingers, a motor, a pressure sensor, a movable elbow joint, and a grabber capable of picking things up.
[5]Before constructing it, I had already decided against traditional prosthetics. Not because they were ineffective, but because playing with toy blocks did significantly improve my dexterity, helping me adapt to my condition. However, a more frustrating reason was that prosthetics were too expensive. My parents and I had looked into getting one a few years earlier, only to be discouraged by the prohibitive price.
So, I concluded that I might not need one because I was managing well without. Nevertheless, the joy of creating prosthetics with toy blocks remained. Every time my parents brought toy blocks to home, I quickly sat down, eagerly pieced the components together and enthusiastically made new prosthetics.
[6]As the years passed, my creations evolved from MK-1 to the more advanced and comfortable MK-V. It featured a control unit that could send and receive orders from sensors on the arm to the motors, with cables that contract like muscles.
[7]One day, a couple with their eight-year-old son, who lost both arms in an accident, visited my home after learning about my creations. Short of money, they couldn't afford well-functioning prosthetics. “Daniel,” the father earnestly asked, “we were wondering if you could possibly help build a set of prosthetics for our son.”

One possible version:
I knew it would be a challenging and demanding task, but I responded with a “yes”. The boy lifted his head with his once lifeless eyes now glittering with a spark of hope. I walked forward, patted him on the shoulder gently and gave him a reassuring smile. Without any delay, I began this tough task immediately. The subsequent days witnessed how much efforts I put into it. I carefully selected the toy blocks pieces that catered to the boy's interests and integrated practical components to enhance its flexibility. Days turning into weeks, my hard work paid off. The tailored prosthetics finally took shape. Looking at the perfect work, I couldn't contain my joy.
I rushed to the boy's home and secured the prosthetics onto him. We held our breath, anxiously waiting for the result—they worked! The room erupted with cheers! With delightful tears running down his face, the boy rushed to his parents and gave them the biggest hugs. The family expressed their sincere gratitude to me, saying if it had not been for my help, they would have suffered a lot. The scene was truly inspiring. Never had I imagined that my creations, born out of mere fun, would someday make such a profound difference. It is on that day that I made up my mind to major in bioengineering and devote myself to prosthetic innovation.
