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。 Lee took a deep breath and let it out slowly. When his lungs felt comfortable, he dived beneath the water. Looking up, he could see the bright sun shinning on the water’s surface. “Soon,” Lee thought, “I shall be able to hold my breath as long as David. Then I, too, shall be able to dive for pearls. ” With lungs burning, he quickly surfaced and gasped(喘气) for breath. Lee was small for his twelve years, and he hated being treated as a child. David, his old brother, had been looked upon as a man long before he was Lee’s age. Now, every day as the sun warmed the bay, David and the other young men went out to dive for oysters (牡蛎). With luck, there would be pearls in many of them. Many times Lee begged to go along, but David always refused. So every day Lee would go to the shallow water to practice. With each day’s effort, his diving improved and he felt much at home in the water. “Tomorrow I shall challenge David. ” Lee decided. The next morning, Lee rose early, hurrying to catch up with David, who was already on the beach. “David, wait! ” called Lee. The group of men around David grew quiet. Lee continued, “David, I say that I can hold my breath under the water as long as you can. If I win, I ask only that you treat me as a man and let me dive by your side. ” The men of the village gasped(倒抽气) and began to laugh. David looked amused, “And what if when you lose?” “I will not lose!” He took a breath, “But if I should, I promise not to ask to go with you for a full year! The men of the village are here to judge. ” Hearing this, David looked surprised. 注意: 1. 所续写短文的词数应为 100 左右； 2.  续写部分分一段,开头语已为你写好； But with all of his friends looking on, David had no choice but to agree. ________________________________________________________________ 文本分析 01Read for vocabulary 4.2 With each day's effort, his diving improved and he felt much at home in the water. 感到舒适自在 02Read for appreciation 1.2 Looking up, he could see the bright sun shining on the wat
