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。
Ali and his younger sister, Zahra, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months, the landlord was breathing down their necks(盯着他们).
One day, Ali took Zahra’s shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn’t until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali’s running shoes. Zahra’s school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.
Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the city. When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.
The day of race arrived. Ali had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Zahra and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right behind the two fastest runners, determined to finish third. Suddenly, as the finish line drew near, another runner collided(碰撞) with Ali from behind and he crashed to the ground.

Danger is not what we expect. But the truth is that it often comes suddenly and unexpectedly. How can we get out of danger? There are many answers to this question. The key is whether we can face danger 1.(brave).
What you must remember is that you must believe in 2.(you). Just remember that it is you 3. can defeat any danger. Tell yourself that you can turn into a superwoman or a superman when you are 4. danger. This is why I am going to tell you the stories of Mrs. Weldon and Dr. Murray.
Mrs. Weldon reported that her baby was about 5.(knock) down by a car when she was trying to save her baby. Mrs. Weldon 6.(weigh) only forty kilograms. She looked as if she was a very weak lady often
7.(dress) in skirts, but she said she pushed the car to save her baby. Dr. Murray, a zoologist, wrote that he , after 8. some wolves ran, jumped nearly three meters high into the air to take hold of the 9.(low) branch of a tree. Perhaps you are wondering if you can do such things as they did. You can also be lucky to escape any 10.(injure)!
It would be my first Thanksgiving since my father moved to heaven, and it would also be my first Thanksgiving being away from my family. Holidays are_______when you can't be with family, and I was mourning(哀悼)the _______ of my dad and feeling sad about being _______ from my family in Indiana. But, that sadness turned into _______when it hit me: I was going to have to prepare a traditional Thanksgiving_______myself!
That night at Dubya's Restaurant，which was our favorite place to _______, I began discussing the dilemma (困境)with Jeff. “It's too bad that this place won't be_______on Thanksgiving, or we could just come here, ”I said. Dubya, the owner of the restaurant, happened to be_______by our table when I said those words.“You mean you expect me to _______ for you on Thanksgiving, too？” he teased. “Well，I guess you'll just have to come to our ________since the restaurant will be closed then.”
We'd become ________with Dubya and his wife, as we ate at Dubya's twice a week; however, I didn't think we were close enough to ________Thanksgiving dinner with his family. I was sure he was ________.But as we headed toward the door, Dubya handed Jeff a note with directions to their house and their phone number.“You’re ________？” I asked.“Of course, ” he said.
And, two days later, we reached Dubya's house. Everyone________ us. As expected, the food was delicious but the company was even better. We truly felt that we________there.
Of course, I wrote them a thank-you note the next week, but I couldn't really ________ into words what that Thanksgiving dinner ________ had meant to us. I've never forgotten their kindness and that very ________ Thanksgiving.

You probably love your dog more than you love some humans. The level of love and trust you feel toward your pet is probably not different from what you feel toward any other family member. But is the feeling mutual(相互的)？1.
ⅰ.He/She learns your routines.
Trust is understood differently for humans and animals.
2. So the best way to build a relationship with your dog is to make these routines positive interactions.
ⅱ.His/Her eyes say it all.
When dogs and their owners stared into each other's eyes during a 30minute period, both of their oxytocin levels increased. Oxytocin has also been called the love hormone and the cuddle(拥抱) hormone.
3. And it is produced when we're around someone we love and trust. This result could mean that the dogs were trying to form bonds with their owners—definitely a sign of trust.
ⅲ.4.
Typically, dogs sleep in a place that they are comfortable, so sleeping in an owner's room could certainly be an indication of comfort. The environment can affect whether your dog settles down in your room or on your bed. However, you may want to carefully weigh your pros and cons before you invite him/her into your bed.
ⅳ.He/She doesn't see you angry often.
5. But a study suggested that dogs can read your emotions, and they're less likely to trust you when you're in a bad mood. When dogs saw the negative behavior, they were less willing to search for the treat.
A．He/She sleeps in your room.
B．Don't be angry with your dog.
C．He/She enjoys comfortable places.
D．It's normal to get annoyed at your dog.
E．Here's how to tell if your dog trusts you.
F．It's used to help mothers bond with their babies.
G．Pets rely on routines to feel normal and have happy lives.
