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。
I was a single mother of four children, working at a low-paid job. Money was always valuable, but we had a roof over our heads, food on the table, and clothes on our backs. I always tell myself to be brave and strong, just for my four children. I hope all my efforts would be worthwhile, as long as my children can grow up healthily. It was Christmas time. We drove downtown to see the Christmas lights,and enjoyed a special dinner, but the big excitement for the kids was the fun of Christmas shopping at the mall. This was a tradition of my family, so they all looked forward to the coming of the season.They talked and planned for weeks ahead of time, asking each other what they wanted for Christmas.
The big day arrived and we started out early. I gave each other of the four kids a twenty-dollar bill and asked them to search for gifts. Then everyone scattered(分散开) with the bill. I sat at a table in a cafe waiting for my children and enjoying an instant of silence. It must be a happy day.
Back in the car driving home, everyone was excited about Christmas, laughing and asking each other about what they had bought. I noted Ginger, my younger daughter had only one small and flat bag with her. I could see enough through the plastic bag to tell that she had bought candy bars－fifty-cent candy bars! What did she do with that twenty –dollar bill I had given her? I was so angry.After getting home, I called her into my bedroom and closed the door. I couldn’t hold back my anger and shouted at her, “What about the rest of the money? No one would be convinced all these candies are worth 20 dollars. What do you want to do with the rest of the money?”

Talking to children about disasters
Natural disasters are terrible events. They are difficult for adults and children. But adults should not be afraid to talk to children about natural disasters.1.But talking can help children feel safer and less afraid of the future. Here are five things adults can do when children show fear of natural disasters.
First, adults should be willing to talk with children. When children are allowed to talk about their fears, they feel safer. Sometimes, the best thing an adult can do is just listen. 2.
Second,3.When answering their questions, it is best to give short, honest answers. If you do not know the answer, you can be honest and say that you do not know.
Third, it is important to wait until a child is ready to talk about a natural disaster. Adults should not force children to talk.
Fourth, help children feel safe.4.One way is very simple: adults can tell frightened children that they love them. It is also important for children to do the same things they do every day. Simple things like going to school and eating dinner can help children feel normal.
Fifth, use activities to help children communicate their fears. Heshani was 13 when the Indian Ocean tsunami (海啸) ruined her house in SriLanka. One year later, she was still living under the shadow (阴影) of the natural disaster. She did not like to visit her ruined house. And she did not want to talk about the problems her family had. However, she loved to write. 5.Writing poems was a way for her to share her fears since she did not like to talk about them.
A. let children ask questions.
B. There are many ways to do this.
C. Talking cannot stop natural disasters from happening.
D. learning is of great importance to adults.
E. We should feel safe first.
F. Whatever the fear is, it is important to listen and be patient with the child.
G. And she often shared her feelings about the tsunami in her poems.
