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 sitting at my desk surrounded by New Year gifts, feeling happy that I had managed to buy some hard-to-find items. These were for Kids Need More, a charitable organization offering services to socially disadvantaged children. One of its most popular events is the Holiday Cheer Bus. The organization always fills the buses with donated gifts for the families on the Cheer Bus routes. Each bus is manned by a team of volunteers. My family had been volunteers for years. I had a list of the families on our route. Just as I was packing up the items with my husband and my son, I received a call from the director of the organization. She asked if I could add a family to my route—— here was a young mother, Leanne, and her son. I called Leanne and told her that a Holiday Cheer Bus would be visiting her family. Leanne seemed really excited and began to cry. I comforted her, "The Holiday Cheer Bus is really going to come. Is there something special that your child would like?" "My son is three. All he wants is a pair of Spider-Man snow boots so that he can play outside in the snow." I asked about her son's shoe size. She told me the size and I promised I would have Spider-Man snow boots in size 9 for her son. After I said goodbye and ended the call, panic set in. It was two days before the Holiday Cheer Bus was going on its run, less than a week before New Year. I was going to need a holiday miracle to find Spider-Man snow boots in size 9. "We have to go shopping! I called out to my husband and son. They were surprised but still we set off. We went to a few department stores and the shoe departments, without success. We were tired and hungry. We were becoming disheartened. My son suggested giving Leanne a gift card so she could get the boots herself. But I didn't want to give up. I promised we would bring boots. 注意； 1）续写词数应为150左右； 2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 At our final stop? expecting defeat, we entered the shoe department. …… Two days later, we arrived at the young mom's home. 答案：At our final stop, expecting defeat, we entered the shoe department. All we saw were empty shelves where the snow boots should be. As my husband searched in one area, I searched another. I looked down an aisle and saw a Spider-Man box. I ran down the aisle. As I got closer, I could not believe my eyes. On top of the Spider-Man box were black-and-red snow boots. I carefully lifted the tag and saw the size- a child's size 9! We bought the boots. I was relieved we would be bringing snow boots to Leanne and her son. Two days later, we arrived at the young mom's home. As the bus pulled up to her home, her son ran through the cold, wet snow without boots for the last time. We handed him the boots and visited for a while. When it was time to leave for our next stop, Leanne waved us off with tears in her eyes. As we walked down the driveway, I heard her son delightfully ask if he could go out to play in the snow in his new boots. Although I didn't hear, I guessed he would have been permitted and had a great time.
