?When I was in middle school，my social studies teacher asked me to enter a writing contest.I said no without thinking.I did not love writing.My family came from Brazil，so English was only my second language.Writing was so difficult and painful for me that my teacher had allowed me to present my paper on the sinking of the Titanic by acting out a play，where I played all the parts.No one laughed harder than he did.
?So，why did he suddenly force me to do something at which I was sure to fail？His reply： "Because I love your stories.If you' re willing to apply yourself，I think you have a good shot at this." Encouraged by his words，I agreed to give it a try.
?I chose Paul Revere's horse as my subject.Paul Revere was a silversmith （銀匠） in Boston who rode a horse at night on April 18，1775 to Lexington to warn people that British soldiers were coming.My story would come straight from the horse's mouth.Not a brilliant idea，but funny；and unlikely to be anyone else' s choice.
?What did the horse think，as he sped through the night？Did he get tired？Have doubts？Did he want to quit？I sympathized immediately.I got tired.I had doubts.I wanted to quit.But，like Revere's horse，I kept going.I worked hard.I checked my spelling.I asked my older sister to correct my grammar.I checked out a half dozen books on Paul Revere from the library.I even read a few of them.
?When I handed in the essay to my teacher，he read it，laughed out loud，and said， "Great.Now，write it again." I wrote it again，and again and again.When I finally finished it，the thought of winning had given way to the enjoyment of writing.If I didn't win，I wouldn't care.

I had just a very wonderful day.Although all my days were always wonderful to me，that day was completely different.There was a bulletin（公告）board saying that they would need to find volleyball players for the girls and I was so happy!I have been loving playing volleyball since my mother taught me how to play.I was so excited that I couldn't wait to play!Then I read more what was on that bulletin board，which said that here would be an audition（試演）after three weeks! "Three weeks？" I thought about it I did know how to play volleyball but I was not much of an expert in doing it but I still wanted to try.
After that I was determined to practice volleyball every day.I practiced hard again and again each day and never got tired of doing the same practice through all the days，and finally，the day came.I was so prepared for this and hurried to the gym to the audition.When I had reached the gym，I was surprised to see that 12 or 14 girls were lining up and I guessed I was the last one to arrive.Then our audition began.Some of the girls failed to pass the audition and some passed.
There was only one position left to complete the 6 girls to join the volleyball team and suddenly I felt nervous because the person in front of me was going to take the serve（發(fā)球）.Then the girl hit the ball and then the ball didn't pass over the net!The girl hit her forehead and left，leaving me standing in the middle of the court.
Then the coach spoke， "Okay，you serve." She handed me the ball and I caught it with my hands.As the ball was in my hands，my hands were suddenly sweating and so was I!

2．閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)所給情節(jié)進(jìn)行續(xù)寫，使之構(gòu)成一個(gè)完整的故事．
One winter Sunday， my little sister， Colleen， and I built the greatest snowman ever． We gave him a carrot nose， beautiful hat， cozy scarf and gloves． He was a masterpiece（杰作）．
The next morning when looking outside， we smiled lovingly at him over our meal． We gave him a high-five as we passed by on our way to school． A lot of kids went past our house， so he was the hot topic at our school that morning． It was our pride!
The day dragged on until finally we could rush home． But as our yard came into sight， we saw something wrong． The snowman was gone! We only found a broken stick here， a torn glove there and balls of snow everywhere． Worst of all， the snowman's once-proud carrot nose lay limp（無力的） and half-eaten．
What had happened？ We were both astonished and angry． But then， we were only kids， who wouldn't have anything taking away our happiness． Actually we knew only one thing： Our snowman would rise again． And so we rebuilt him．
The next day we came home to find another mess on the front lawn（草坪）． For the rest of the week， the destruction was repeated daily． Each afternoon we'd return to find our snowman had fallen apart， and then we built again．
By Saturday morning， we had a plan． We borrowed a really big bucket（水桶） from Mom， filled it with water and left it outside． The next morning， it was frozen solid． We packed snow all around the ice block as the base（底座） of the snowman． Then we built the other parts of it once again． The trap was set， and we waited for the snowman bullies（破壞者） to come．

3．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
If there's one thing I can't stand people saying，it's，"I'm no good at anything...I don't have any talent." I just don't buy that at all.To me，everyone has at least one talent，and while it sometimes takes you a lifetime to find，it does exist.There was a time，of course，when I didn't believe that.What changed my mind was a seemingly small event that took place back in 1953.
At that time I was a high school student.I was a funny-looking skinny little boy named Eugene Orowitz，who weighed barely 100 pounds.I was a good student，but as far as I was concerned，in just about every other department I was a loser.I desperately wanted to fit in，to be something and do something well.But I hadn't found anything I was good at.One sunny afternoon，our gym class went out to the school's running track.The teacher taught us all various track and field events.I was a loser in all of them.Then came the javelin（標(biāo)槍）.Suddenly something inside me began saying，"Try it!Try it!" I had to wait my turn，though，because several others wanted a break at the javelin too.Shy and scared，I watched them，trying not to look too eager.Finally，when everyone had had a chance to throw—the best throw going about 30 yards—I looked at the teacher.
"Hey，Orowitz，you want to try？" he asked.
Embarrassed，I looked down，but managed to nod my head.
"Well，come on then，" he said impatiently，and handed me the javelin.Behind me I could hear some of my classmates laughing.As I grasped the javelin in my hand，I was seized with a strange feeling—a new-found excitement.For some crazy reason，I was relaxed over what I was about to do，even though I'd never done it before.I raised the javelin over my head，took six quick steps and let the thing go.The same voice that had urged me into throwing it，now told me it was a good throw.
注意：續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右。
