题目

 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。I was a broke university student. I should have been going to university on a scholarship because I came from a low-income family, but a last-minute £100-a-year pay rise for my mum pushed my family over the threshold (门槛) for what defined "low-income" and I was suddenly no longer qualified for £15,000 a year in scholarship money. This news came after I'd been accepted by the university and signed the lease (租约) for my accommodation.Despite my family not being labelled low-income anymore, I still wouldn't receive any financial support from my family as all the income went toward taking care of my disabled brother and paying their own bills. It would be tight, but because I had savings from my part-time job, I decided to go to university anyway. After paying my rent, I had £10.20 a week for everything else including food, toiletries, and school supplies.As I was in a new city, I really wanted to make friends, which was difficult when most of the social activities were expensive. Therefore, I jumped at the chance to do a relatively cheap coffee shop trip with my roommates who were pleasant to me.I had £20 with me to get a cheap cup of coffee and my food shopping for a few weeks. So I headed for the coffee shop. While paying, I pulled out the note and a handful of change and realized I could pay without breaking the note, so I put it back in my pocket. It wasn't until I arrived at the supermarket that I realized the note was gone. What should I do? I was desperate it was the equivalent (相等物) of two weeks of money. My roommates helped me look for the note. However, it was in vain. Finally, I went to school empty-handed.注意： （1）  续写词数应为150词左右；(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。P1: As a final attempt, I messaged the coffee shop's Facebook page asking if they'd seen it.P2: I said, "Oh, ...This isn't mine; my note was an old worn one." 答案： As a final attempt, I messaged the coffee shop's Facebook page asking if they'd seen it. Least expecting a reply from them, I logged off with enormous disheartenment and continuous self-blame. How I wished I was careful enough so that the note would not slip out without my notice. However, five minutes, an alert from Facebook broke off my negative thoughts. "Yes, we indeed found a 20-dollar note. Please come ASAP!" The above words from the coffee shop instantly fueled me with energy. Without hesitation, I rushed back with a rapturous heart. Hardly had I entered the shop when a sweet-looking barista handed me a shiny 20-dollar note and asked tentatively, "Sir, is it yours?"I said, "Oh, ... This isn't mine; my note was an old worn one." Beaming a most radiant smile, the barista explained gently that this note was from my most kind-hearted roommates, who, after witnessing my despair and devastation, would like to extend a helping hand. Hearing this, I felt a surge of warmth swelled up in my heart and my eyes were instantly moistened with grateful tears. Yes, life might be hard for me in a new city. But with the unreserved generosity and unwavering support from my roommate, I knew I could pull through any difficulty and rise to any challenge. Indeed, life is not a bed of roses, but love from my roommates make the world go around. Plus, I am bound to pay forward their kindness by helping more needy people like me.
