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。续写的词数应为150左右。
Sometimes, good intentions alone are not enough when your attempt to be kind to someone leaves you feeling worse than before.
In a certain store where they sell puddings (布丁), a number of these delicious things are laid out in a row. Here you may select the one which is most to your taste, and you are even allowed to taste them before coming to a decision.
I have often wondered whether some people having no intention of making a purchase would take advantage of this privilege. One day I asked a salesgirl the question, and I learned it was indeed the case.
“Now there's one old man,” she told me.“He comes here almost every week and tastes each one of the puddings, though he never buys anything. I remember him from last year. Well, let him come if he wants it, and he is welcome to it. And what's more, I hope there are a lot more stores where he can go and get his share. He looks as if he needs it all right, and I suppose they can afford it.”
She was still speaking when an elderly man walked up to the counter and began looking closely at the row of puddings with great interest.
“ Why, that's the very man I've been telling you about,” whispered the salesgirl, and then turned to him:“would you like to taste them, sir? Here's a spoon for you to use.”
The elderly gentleman, who was poor but neatly dressed, accepted the spoon and began to taste one after another of the puddings. “This is quite good. This is not bad either, but a little too heavy.”
Among the crowd of happy, rich-looking shoppers, the little black figure of the old man seemed pitiful and out of place, and in a burst of kindness, I went up to him and said:“ Pardon me, sir, will you do me a favor? Let me purchase you one of these puddings. It would give me such pleasure.”
Paragraph 1:
The old man jumped back as if he had been bitten, and the blood rushed to his face.

写作规范练(三)
第一节
【佳作展台】
Dear Tom,
How is everything going? I'm writing to offer you some advice on how to learn Chinese well (how to improve your Chinese). And my advice is as follows:
To begin with, you should pay attention to your pronunciation and intonation. As you know, there is much difference between Chinese and English. For example, there are four tones in the Chinese intonation. So you should practice speaking Chinese frequently. What's more, you'd better read and recite some Chinese classics, which help you learn more about great thoughts and traditional Chinese culture. Besides, keeping a diary can be a good way to express yourself. Of course, it's also of great help to either learn some Chinese songs or watch some teaching videos. More importantly, remember to seek more opportunities to chat with Chinese native speakers.
I hope my advice can be beneficial. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Sincerely,
Li Hua
第二节
【文章大意】 一家卖布丁的商店里陈列着许多好吃的布丁,顾客可以挑选合自己口味的布丁,而且可以在购买之前试吃。据一位女店员说,有一位老人每周都来店里品尝布丁但从不购买。作者觉得这位老人很可怜,出于善意,他决定为老人购买一个布丁。
【写作指导】 Paragraph 1的开头是“这位老人往后跳了一下,好像被叮咬了一般,满脸通红”,再结合短文第一段的内容可知,接下来的内容应是这位老人拒绝了作者的好意。再结合Paragraph 2的开头可推知,本段应该还会涉及老人自己给自己买了一个布丁的内容。
Paragraph 2的开头是“女店员从货架上取下布丁并开始打包”。由此可知,本段应会涉及老人付钱给女店员之后的情况。

Paragraph 1:
The old man jumped back as if he had been bitten, and the blood rushed to his face. “Excuse me,” he said, with more dignity than I would have thought considering his appearance, “I do not believe I have the pleasure of knowing you. Undoubtedly you have mistaken me for someone else.” And with a quick decision he turned to the salesgirl and said in a loud voice, “Kindly pack up this one here for me. I will take it with me.” He pointed at one of the largest and most expensive puddings.
Paragraph 2:
The salesgirl took down the pudding from its stand and started to parcel it up. Meanwhile, the elderly gentleman pulled out a worn little pocketbook and began counting out shillings and pennies on the counter. To save his “honor” he was forced into a purchase which he could not possibly afford. How I longed for the power to take back my insensitive words! It was too late though, and I felt that the kindest thing I could do now would be walk away. And that was the last time I saw or heard of him. Now he can never go there to taste puddings any more.
