读后续写：亲情类--一个美丽的胸针讲义-2023届高三英语写作专项

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。 In 1945, a 12-year-old boy Reuben saw a beautiful brooch (胸针) in a shop window that set his heart racing. But the price-five dollars -- was too much for Reuben. Five dollars would buy almost a week's groceries for his family. Reuben couldn't ask his father for the money. Everything his father made through fishing went to his mother, Dora. Slim and beautiful, she was the center of the home, the glue that held it together. The housework was never-ending, and she struggled to feed and clothe their five children but she was happy as her family and their well-being were all she cared about. Nevertheless, he opened the shop's weathered door and went inside. Standing proud and straight in his flour-sack shirt and washed-out trousers, he told the shopkeeper what he wanted, adding, “But I don't have the money right now. Can you please hold it for me for some time?” “I'll try,”the shopkeeper smiled.“Folks around here don't usually have that kind of money to spend on things. It should keep for a while.” Reuben respectfully touched his worn cap and walked out. He would raise the money and not tell anybody for he thought Mum would get surprised when she saw that brooch. On hearing the sound of hammering from a side street, Reuben suddenly had an idea that he could raise money by selling the used nail bags. People built their own homes in Bay Roberts, using nails purchased in bags from a local factory. Sometimes the used bags were thrown away at the construction site, and Reuben knew he could sell them back to the factory for five cents a piece.  注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； That day he sold two bags,and hid the money in a rusty soda tin.
