With only a week before New Year knocked on their door,Faith sat at her old sewing machine—a special gift from her late mother apart from her sewing skills—secretly sewing new clothes for her father and three younger siblings (兄弟姐妹) and preparing them for Easter.
Faith was the eldest daughter in the family and responsible enough to shoulder her disabled father's responsibilities.Faith's father,George,lost his arm in an accident.Despite his disability,George did his best to raise his children,but money was tight,and there were a lot of mouths to feed.
When George couldn't afford new beds for his children as they grew taller and older,he made new furniture with one hand.It took him several restless nights to arrange the supplies and complete the work.Out of gratitude,Faith decided to do something for him a week before Easter.
"Let's have a festive dinner,Dad!" she told George. "We haven't celebrated anything since Mom's death.Let's make a change this New Year!Please!"
"Honey," George said helplessly, "I barely have any money left,and I'd hate to see my children go to bed starving."
But then George looked at the sadness in his children s eyes and realized he shouldn't have said that.
"But," he added, "I guess I can try,can't I?I can get some eggs and flour,and let's get your mother's cookbook from the attic (阁楼).She had these inexpensive and delicious recipes in there.How about that?"
"Oh,perfect!" Faith cheered. "You're the best,Dad!We'll finally have a proper dinner!" she shouted to her younger siblings,and the joy on his kids' cheeks made George realize that nothing was more important to him than the happiness of his children.
The next day,George could take his kids to shop.The single father rolled his shopping cart through the aisles (过道),picking up a large bag of flour,a dozen eggs,and cheap sliced ham.After they finished shopping,George and his children decided to walk home because the grocery store was only a few blocks away.

【答案】Suddenly,the bag slipped,and George knelt to pick it up when a young lady,Emma,stepped out of her car.Emma rushed up,saying worriedly, "Are you okay?" "Fine,thanks," George replied with a waving hand.When Emma hurried to help him pick up the scattered things on the ground,she was shocked to find the man had only one arm.Just then,Faith and her siblings caught up with them.When making sure George was not injured again,Emma offered to drive the whole family home.
When getting home,George invited Emma to his home for the festival dinner.After entering the house,Emma looked around and was attracted by the clothes with good designs near the old outdated sewing machine.Faith told her the truth,explaining, "The machine is my mother's and it is precious to me.My mother has passed away." Soon the dinner which George had made according to his wife's handwritten cookbook was ready.Emma enjoyed every moment she spent there and couldn't wait to repay their kindness. "I'd like to send a new sewing machine as a gift," she said to them when saying goodbye.

1.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。
"Happy New Year,papa!"The sitting-room doors were thrown open,and a sweet little girl flashed in.Smiles played around her cherry lips,and her eyes were dancing with sunny light.
"Happy New Year,my sweet one!"responded Mr.Edgar. "May all your New Years be happy,"he added,and with a blessing in his heart.
Little Ellen laid her head against her father's breast.To her it was a Happy New Year's morning,but it was not so with Mr.Edgar,a successful businessman.He was tired of the plot in the business world.He was not happy at all! "For years,"he said to himself,"I have been pursuing the means of happiness,yet happiness itself seems to be still farther in the distance.""Why am I not happy?"But the answer was not given.
After breakfast,Mr.Edgar left home and went to his company.On his way,he noticed a lovely child around the same age as his daughter playing in the yard.Her beauty,which had in it something of innocence (天真),impressed him so deeply that he turned to gain a second look.With the girl was a father and he happened to be Abraham James,who owed(欠) money to Mr.Edgar from their business dealings.Abraham couldn't meet his responsibilities to Mr.Edgar,and as a result,Mr.Edgar said some unkind words.Mr.Edgar had an appointment with a lawyer(律师) today,preparing to charge him and ask for money he was owed.While the money wasn't a significant amount for Mr.Edgar,it meant a lot to Abraham James,who planned to sell his house to come up with the money.
As Mr.Edgar continued on his way,he couldn't forget the cheerful face of the child.Suddenly,he remembered his own daughter's smiling face and sweet morning greeting.He thought,"She must also wish her Daddy a happy New Year.If her Dad isn't happy,will she still wear that innocent smile on her face?"He seemed to have found the way to be happy.
