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。
Jenny was the only child in her family. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn't help weeping（哭泣） sorrowfully（悲伤地） when she thought of the scolding（责骂） from her mother. Having wandered（游荡） aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat. She stood beside a stand（货摊） for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she gave a sigh（叹气） and had to leave. The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles?” “Oh, yes, but I don't have money on me,” she replied.
“That's nothing. I'll treat you today,” said the man “Come in.” The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, the smell so attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently. “What is it?” asked the man kindly. “Nothing. Actually I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped（擦拭） her tears. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so merciless（无情的） compared to a stranger!” Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, do you really think so? I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times she cooked for you? Have you expressed your gratitude（感激） to her?” Jenny sat there, speechless and numb（麻木的） with shock; she remembered her mother's familiar face and weathered （变形）hands. “Why didn't I think of that? A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel indebted（感激的）. Why haven't I thanked my mum for what she has done for me?” On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

Plan ahead the night before. 1. Lay out your first day outfit (全套服装), pack a lunch, and make sure you have all your school supplies ready to go. Planning ahead can help you get a good night’s sleep and feel less nervous about your first day.
2. Make sure your clothes are cleaned and pressed and that you’ve showered, brushed your teeth. If you’re hoping to attract friends with similar interests, try wearing a shirt with your favorite show, musician, or sports team on it. 3.
Do your best to stay calm and positive. It’s normal to feel nervous or anxious when you’re the new kid at school. If you feel nervous, start by taking some deep breaths. 4. You can listen to music that makes you feel calm or happy. Try imagining a good first day in your mind instead of keeping thinking about things that could go wrong.
5. Don’t come in on the first day with your head hanging down, your shoulders lowered, and your eyes on the floor. Walk with your head held up, your back straight, and a bright expression on your face. Make eye contact with other people, and smile if they look at you or speak to you.

Take a look inside a high school classroom. You will most likely find a teacher at the front of the class and students sitting at their desks. Yet, look closer, and you might notice a familiar scene: many of these students are not paying attention. Instead, they are dozing off (打盹) or even completely asleep.
Today, the majority of high school students are not getting enough sleep. This lack (缺乏) of sleep is a serious problem, especially as students are doing more than ever with their time. They come to school early, spend hours listening to teachers and taking tests, and come home to be faced with even more work. And the homework load these days is not light; teachers give hours worth of homework each night.
Most kids need at least nine hours of sleep per night in order to function properly. Yet the period of this nine hours shifts as a child gets older. After puberty (青春期), the body’s internal clock changes so that it is difficult for teens to fall asleep before 11 p.m. So even if a student falls asleep at eleven, they would need to sleep until at least 8 a.m. to get a full night’s sleep. Considering the time at which most high schools in this country begin, those nine hours are clearly being shortened. Few high schools start after 8 a.m.
However，there are schools that have paid attention to this research and delayed the start of their school day. In schools where the start time is after 8:30 in the morning, the teachers believe that there has been a real change in their students. They note that the students miss class less, pay more attention in class, perform better in class, and report lower levels of depression (沮丧). The researchers of these studies say that the results are quite important and that more schools should consider delaying their start time of their school day.
1.The second paragraph mainly discusses _____ .
A.why high school students should get more sleep
B.The life of high school students at present
C.why high school students feel sleepy in the classroom
D.how to lighten high school students’ homework load
2.The underlined word “shifts” in Paragraph 3 probably means“______”.
A.arrives B.reduces
C.increases D.changes
3.How do the teachers feel about the results from delaying their school day?
A.Disappointed. B.Satisfied.
C.Puzzled. D.Surprised.
