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。

Jane, a high school senior in Willowbrook, was always alone at her home because her parents were often occupied with their work, even in the evening and she had to take on the household chores, including taking care of their garden. Nevertheless, though she dutifully tended to the garden, it never appeared attractive due to her poor knowledge of gardening.

One evening, Jane was left alone at home again. She sat by the window, doing her homework. When she looked outside, through the rain-spattered window, she noticed a figure lingering under the streetlamp across the street. The man, wearing a long black coat, seemed to be looking directly at her house. Jane’s heart skipped a beat as their eyes briefly met.

Actually this wasn’t the first time that Jane had seen the man in the neighborhood. He never spoke to anyone, and he always seemed to be alone. Jane had mentioned him to her parents, who said he was new to this town and was a gardener. However, Jane couldn’t shake the feeling of fear.

That evening, as the man lingered across the street, Jane dialed Mrs. Baker’s number with trembling fingers. Mrs. Baker, who lived just a few houses away, was a kind elderly woman who had always been like a grandmother to Jane. “Mrs. Baker, there’s a man outside, and he’s been standing there for a while. I’m scared,” Jane whispered into the phone. “I’ll be right over, dear,” Mrs. Baker tried to calm Jane down.

Moments later, Mrs. Baker arrived at. Together, they went to the window and peered (仔细看) out. The man was still there, but he was holding something in his hands. Jane’s fear grew. “What if he’s dangerous?” Jane murmured. Mrs. Baker patted Jane’s shoulder and said, “Let’s not jump to a conclusion so quickly.” Just then, the man began walking toward Jane’s house. Jane’s heart pounded as he approached the front door. But instead of knocking, he bent down and placed

something on the porch (门廊). Then, he turned around and walked away.

简与陌生园丁故事的续写

续写分析

第一段分析：此段围绕简打开神秘包裹展开，通过 “trembling hands”“eyes widened” 等细节描写，生动展现出简从恐惧到惊喜、感动的心理转变过程。包裹中的花种和园艺书，以及纸条上温暖的话语，不仅揭开了陌生男子的善意，也打破了简对他的误解。而贝克夫人的话 “See, not everyone is a threat.” 进一步点明主题，为下文简主动寻找男子致谢并建立友谊做铺垫，使故事发展自然流畅，充满温情转折。

第二段分析：该段承接上文，以简寻找男子致谢为线索，展现两人之间情感的交流与升华。简主动询问、找到卡特先生家，体现她懂得感恩；卡特先生温和的回应，“I know how it feels to be alone.” 既解释了他帮助简的原因，也拉近了两人的距离。后续卡特先生教简园艺，使故事从单纯的善意传递，延伸到友谊的建立和简内心孤独感的消除，“As the flowers blossomed in her garden, so did a new friendship” 用比喻手法巧妙点明主题，让故事充满希望与温暖。

故事线

孤独日常：高中生简因父母忙碌独自在家，承担家务并打理花园，但因缺乏园艺知识，花园并不美观。
