Here is a secret that everyone knows：I don't like to ask for help.Of course，my disability means that I need assistance when I get dressed and have to be driven everywhere，but that is precisely my point.
One night a few years ago，after my caregiver helped me to bed，I enjoyed my favorite part of my routine—playing with my service dog Marshall.When the rest of the world made me feel "lacking"，Marshall made me feel like "enough" .
As usual，he jumped off the bed after a few minutes，but the pain in his eyes told me something was wrong.A few days later，a trip to the vet confirmed my worst fears.Dr Tom said，"I must perform an operation to treat him""Is he in pain？"I held my breath.Then I got the answer"Yes."
I felt heartbroken.I couldn't remember talking about the details.I had one huge question："How much would the operation cost？""About＄2，500.It might as well have been a million."I couldn't afford it.Each day，I searched for ways to raise money for this operation.
A beautiful bike trail was close to the apartment where we lived.On most of the days of our eight years together，Marshall and I used it.I loved the trees，the fresh air and being outside.Over the years，many of the neighbors got familiar with us.Everyone loved Marshall.
Then one day，an idea occurred to me.Could I ask these people to contribute to the cost of Marshall's operation？If I could push my wheelchair a certain number of laps（圈）and get money for every lap that I completed，might I raise enough money for Marshall to have his operation？Our regular route was a mile and a half long.My goal was to push my wheelchair ten laps，a total of fifteen miles.Next，feeling very bold and a little nervous，I set a date.Then I made posters and posted them around my apartment and all over the bike trail.My neighbors were concerned for Marshall.

【答案】With hope，I started to train myself.For the first few days，I nearly gave up.Pushing my wheelchair made me feel great pain in my back and shoulders，but my love for Marshall kept me going.Instead of listening to my body，I focused on the voice in my heart.When I was training，I thought to myself."One more lap.You can do this.Don't stop.Marshall needs you."After weeks of daily training，I could finish all fifteen miles.
The big day finally came and I went out at 6：30 a.m.The first few laps were long and lonely.Slowly the donors and neighbors came to watch.Some even cheered as I passed them.With every mile，more people came and donated money.There was hope after all.Donations from the neighbors continued.Many hours passed，and I finished all fifteen miles.I succeeded in raising enough money for Marshall's operation.I could never have made it without these kind people's support.

1．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
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（书呆子）."
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.
