Ⅱ.读后续写
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。
Growing up，my family always had cats—but by the time I got to college，I wanted one I
could call my own.So，I visited Animal Home in Michigan，looking for the perfect cat.There was a black kitten I nearly ignored.He was skinny and small and not even cute，but he
stuck his paws through the cage，trying to play with me.He was clearly interested in me，so I
asked to hug him.He curled up on my shoulder and began purring(发出咕噜声)．Our connection
was immediate.I adopted him，named him Adam，and brought him home.
Over the next 16 years，Adam and I were so close.He was gentle，sweet and playful.But one
night last year，everything changed.
It was as if one day Adam was still acting like a kitten，and then the next day he was
vomiting(呕吐) all the time and no longer acting like his usual self.He’d lost weight and I knew
that he was sick.I took him to the vet(兽医) and the diagnosis was sad: stomach cancer.Worse yet，
the vet thought he was too old for operation.All I could do was give him medicine to help make
him more comfortable.
A month later，Adam got worse.I took him to the emergency vet，where they kept him
overnight to administer fluids(输液)．When I went to pick him up the next morning，on
Christmas Eve，the vet said it was time to end his life.It was the best thing to do for him.With deep
sorrow，I said goodbye to him.
Once I got back home，reality hurt me much.Usually，Adam was there to wait for me at the
door.But he was gone，leaving an aching emptiness in my life and at my home.I suffered from
huge pain.I told my husband I didn’t want another cat.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
Few weeks later，my friend Amy who rescued homeless cats called me.
After I brought the new cat home，my huge pain gradually disappeared.

Few weeks later，my friend Amy who rescued homeless cats called me.She saved an injured
kitten from the street，asking if I could go and take care of the kitten while she cleaned her cage.I
was unwilling but finally agreed.When I arrived，I picked up the cute kitten.To our amazement，
she was incredibly mild and calm while I hugged her.Seeing the kitten was in desperate need of
care，I was tempted to adopt her at once，but the grief for Adam was still burning me.After a hard
struggle，I made up my mind to bring her home.
After I brought the new cat home，my huge pain gradually disappeared.My new companion
lifted my depression greatly: She greeted me at the door daily，demanding hugs and kisses.With
time going by，I was no longer painful by Adam’s loss，instead I focused on providing a good
home for my new kitten.Having to care for an animal again gave me a renewed sense of
purpose.When I hold her and hug her，a sense of calm comes over me.Pain over loss can alwaysbe healed by new happiness.Hugging the kitten，I realized the connection between me and the cat
saved me.
