9．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。
Maria was practicing with her soccer mates in a tiny school yard.They were all from River Edge Rockers，a soccer team of their community.Suddenly，the ball flew into a deep hole at the edge of the yard.It was the third time that they had lost their ball this month.Without the ball Maria had to wave goodbye to her mates and went home，depressed. "If only there were a regulation soccer field!" she thought.
That evening，seeing her in low spirits，her father asked， "What was the matter，dear？"
"I was just thinking about playing in a brand new soccer field!" Maria answered.
Her father smiled and said， "Tomorrow，a Town Council meeting is to be held to discuss about the use of that vacant（空着的）lot next to the pet store，Home for Pets.Why not take this opportunity to convince them we need a better field？"
The next day，with the company of her father，Maria and her teammates went to the meeting hall.On their arrival they saw Councilwoman Jill and some citizens already there.They took their seats.After Jill announced the start of the discussion，Maria stood up and spoke first. "Up till now there is no soccer field in our community，which certainly affects our physical health.Our team currently have to practice in a tiny school yard，and only when it's not already booked."
Mrs.Lorries，owner of the pet store，commented，"I couldn't agree more.Kids do need such a field." The Rockers applauded excitedly and the other citizens all agreed it would be a way out.
"A soccer field would be a good use for that lot with overgrown weeds and some large rocks，but to build such one would need a small sum of money and maybe you even need to do all the work on your own." Councilwoman Jill smiled， "Can you manage it？"
Thinking for a while，Maria nodded with a determined look on her face， "The Rockers can do it!We will turn it into a soccer field." The teammates all cheered.
