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。
Thirteen-year-old Amy lost her mother in a car accident. She had no choice but moved from New Zealand to Canada to live with her father Thomas.
Thomas was an inventor, living on a farm. He brought Amy back to his messy house, which had not been cleaned up for years. Most of the rooms in the house were used for storing his gliders (滑翔机) and their parts.
One day, Amy happened to see Thomas testing his glider but he soon crashed in the surrounding field. Scared and unsure if her father was all right, Amy heard his father's shout of triumph. She couldn't understand her father strange behavior so that she barely talked with him. "My new life is absolutely miserable!" Amy thought with tears in her eyes.
It was not until Amy found the eggs that her life changed. While exploring the area around the farm, Amy discovered an abandoned nest of 16 goose eggs under a fallen tree. She gathered all of the eggs and brought them back to the bam where she took a heating lamp to provide light and warmth for them.
One afternoon after school, Amy was thrilled to discover all of the eggs had hatched. The baby geese and Amy looked at each other and a bond immediately formed. The geese assumed Amy, the first thing they saw, was their mother. Amy asked his father, “Can I keep the baby geese, please?" "Yes," Thomas agreed. Although he knew there would be a lot of challenges waiting for them, it might be a chance to improve their relationship.
Looking after the baby geese very carefully, Amy even named all of them like a real mother. Soon winter arrived, it was the time for migrant birds like geese to go south for the cold days. Thomas made a great many attempts to teach the geese to fly but none of them followed him. They just stuck close to Amy all the time.

Countless parents have kids who just want to eat chickens pasta, or macaroni and cheese, and definitely without any vegetables. So what’s a parent to do?1.. We reached out to experts on healthy eating for kids, and they had a ton of great advice.
Make food interesting. Lori Day, an educational psychologist, thought that if kids found it interesting, they would be more likely to try it. So Day let her daughter shell peas, count them, sort them by size and play with them before putting them in the pot.2.. "Make food interesting if your child is naturally curious and is willing to engage,” Day said.
3.. Several parents talked about how bringing their children with them to the farmers market or the grocery store and having them help with the cooking can get them more excited and invested in what they are eating. Kids can be inspired to eat healthy when they are part of the meal, said Margaret McSweeney, host of the podcast Kitchen Chat. "A trip to the local farmers market can connect them with the source of food."
Give kids choices. Amy, an infant-child psychologist said that from a young age, parents should let their kids choose foods and snacks they like, within reason. “Give them more room to choose as they get older,n she added. And never get into a power struggle with your kids about eating, she said. 4.
Model healthy eating. Our kids can be influenced to make better choices if they watch us doing the same.
Pam Moore, founder of the blog, whatever, says her kids always see her and husband eating healthy. 5.. I often keep sliced veggies washed, sliced and ready to eat for snacks. Our children will ask for bites as time goes on, as they like to copy what we do," said Moore.
A. First, don't stress.
B. Inspire kids to eat healthy.
C. Get the kids to be involved.
D. Her daughter loved eating them raw or cooked.
E. Make sure you are not over controlling or overeducating them.
F. Both my husband and I typically add greens to our eggs at breakfast.
G. We talk about food colors and how it is healthiest to make meals with various colors.
With smart technology increasingly influencing all aspects of our lives, it is only a matter of time before someone invents “smart” shoes—ones that can be made based on personal needs. Called “ShiftWear”, the sneakers are the brainchild of a team of businessmen, and engineers led by New York-based designer David Coel.
The adaptable shoes can be customized by using a smart phone app. Shoe owners will have the option of selecting a design from a variety of HD pattern by famous artists or creating one themselves. The company’s founders imagine a marketplace where artists can not only share but also sell their designs to others. Despite being electronic, the designs are clearly visible even in the brightest sunlight. What’s even cooler is that by switching on a backlight, users can even show off their designs in the dark!
According to Coel, the sneakers will keep their charge “forever” if only images are displayed. Though they will need periodic recharging, active users have nothing to worry about. That’s because the shoes are equipped with special walk-n-charge technology that powers the shoes—with every step. Inactive users also have options of charging the sneakers without using wires.
The bottom part of the shoes is covered with Kevler fibers, a kind of strong material, reducing normal wear and tear. Even better? They are completely waterproof (not let water through) and can even be thrown into an ordinary laundry machine for a quick wash! The company predicts that the shoes will range the price from $150 to $1000 depending on the size of the E-panels where the designs are displayed.
This is not the first time that electronics and shoes have combined. Lithuania-based iShuh Technology has come up with a similar concept that connects e-reader panels to a smart phone app via the Bluetooth. Whether these smart shoes become as popular as our smart devices remains to be seen, though they surely are attractive.
1.What can we know about the smart shoes from the text?
A.The electronic designs can not be seen clearly at night.
B.The designers make sure every pair of sneakers are unique.
C.The bottom of the shoes can last longer due to special materials.
D.The shoes have to be washed by hand to protect the electronics.
2.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A.How the sneakers are charged.
B.How the sneakers can work well.
C.What images the sneakers show.
D.What technology the sneakers carry.
3.The varied prices of the sneakers mainly depend on ________.
A.the length of the shoes
B.the size of their e-panels
C.the designers of the shoes
D.the materials of their bottoms
4.How does the author feel about the sneakers’ future market?
A.Negative. B.Anxious.
C.Uncertain. D.Confident.
