March 13, Saturday
Fine
Today witnessed a rewarding activity—Tree Planting organized by the Students' Union of our school.
Early in the morning, my classmates and I headed for a hill nearby with tools and seedlings.On our arrival, we got down to working together as planned.Some of us dug the pits and put the seedlings in;some filled the pits with earth and others watered the newly-planted young trees.Through our joint efforts, the hill was lined with rows of seedlings, bathed in the sunshine.
Exhausted as we were, we tasted the joy of labor and we decided to plant more trees in the future.
第二节 (满分25分)
A few years ago, I was unemployed after just getting back on my feet from illness.Although upset, I decided to blow my savings and go to Australia on my own for six months, which turned into two years!
Travelling alone, on the other side of the world, was scary and I faced so many challenges that let me see the kindness in humanity(人性).The most notable for me was just after I had been granted my second year visa, having only $20 left to my name.
I applied for a job through an agency, and was offered the job but told to return for a second interview with the office manager, suit required.I pieced together a suit from a charity shop with my last dollars.I had arranged a bank transfer from home but a bank holiday had severely delayed the speed of the transfer, so I was left with no money for food.
At the second interview, my stomach betrayed my hunger and I tried to joke about my financial difficulties.The manager offered to give me money there and then, despite not officially offering me the job.I stubbornly refused, but promised if my money was delayed further I would accept his kind gesture.I got the job!
After this, I found an apartment and used my money from home to cover rent and a deposit, knowing I would have a job and a wage to come.I thought things were looking up until I moved into the apartment and discovered my housemate was a completely crazy person.
Two weeks later, I realized I couldn't stay there and gave notice to leave after I found another apartment around the corner.Again I thought I had dodged a bullet(逃过一劫) and things were OK.I was four days into my new job and arranging to move into the new apartment when I got a text from my new landlord the day before I was due to move in, apologizing and saying the room wasn't available.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
One possible version:
I honestly didn't know what to do.I could neither live with the crazy housemate nor afford a hotel.When I returned, lying in bed, I racked my brains all night attempting to seek for a way out of this mess but in vain.That was when I never felt farther from home.The next morning, though with everything weighing on my mind, I dragged myself to work. “Didn't sleep well?” a colleague asked.Tears welling up, I could hardly contain myself and broke down.
Everyone in the office was so lovely to me that day.The colleague brought me a hot tea, while others were listening to me quietly.For the first time, I gave up my manhood, pouring out my awful experiences and feelings.The manager offered me a room in his house and even would accompany me to fetch my belongings after work.Maybe that was just a small gesture in their eyes, but it meant the world to me, and I would always seek to pay the kindness forward whenever I could.
