阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。

“Mommy ,don't go,”my three-year-old son screamed as I walked to the door. My fifteen-year-old leaned against the kitchen counter with his arms folded across his chest ,not screaming,but glaring at me as I pulled his little brother off my leg.

“Are you mad at me too?”

“You spend all your time taking care of other people's kids,but what about us?”Dylan left angrily.

I was shocked and a little hurt. How could my own child not understand that the work I was doing was saving live? Then the answer hit me. He didn't know bemuse he had never seen what Healing the Children actually did. Dylan had heard the sores of sick children, but had never once looked into the eyes of a  child and understood the hard truth-that without our help, the child would likely die.

“Get dressed. You are going with me.”I said.

I spend the drive explaining the case of Hector to my son, who pretended to ignore me the entire time.“He's seven, only weighs thirty pounds and is very sick. He has a heart condition called Tetralogy of Fallot, which could kill him. It is a miracle(奇迹) that he is still alive. ”

I went on to explain that it took a team of volunteer medical staff to get Hector to the hospital from his remote village and care for him while he was there. Still, Dylan seemed unimpressed.

We stopped at a convenience store for water and snacks. Dylan had one large and one small Slurpee (思乐冰饮料). He said the small one was for Hector. I doubted whether the little guy would be able to drink it, but remained silent. This was the first interest Dylan had shown in being there. I wasn't about to ruin it.

I stopped at the nurse's station to check on Hector's progress while Dylan went to his room. Our patient was recovering physically，but the nurse was concerned that Hector was struggling emotionally. She said “Kids usually bounce back fast, but he hardly speaks and never smiles.”

Answer

Imagine my surprise when I heard laughter from Hector's room. I entered and found Dylan sitting on the edge of Hector's bed wiping pieces of frozen drink from Hector's mouth. Both boys were giggling and Hector was apparently enjoying the company. I spent the rest of the day speaking to doctors and watching my son playing with the special little boy. It was truly amazing to watch them interact,as if it were the most natural thing in the world. Perhaps to the two of them it was.

On the way home that night ,Dylan asked me several times whether Hector would be okay.I told him this boy would get well but he had a hard road ahead of him.My son seemed to be lost in thought for a while. Then he declared his decision to join Healing the Children as a volunteer to help Hector and other children. I never thought that a moody teenager would take up the volunteer work and never again complain about his mother's crazy work schedule.

【解析】

这是一篇读后续写作文。

通过阅读所给文章可知，文章主要讲叙了讲述了作者由于救助病情严重的孩子们这个工作原因不能经常陪伴孩子，被孩子误解后，作者带孩子去亲眼看到生病的孩子，让他体验到母亲工作的重要性。

续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：Imagine my surprise when I heard laughter from Hector's room. 想象我听到生病的Hector的病房传出的笑声感到惊讶。后文应当描写作者回来后看到病房的情况，儿子在给Hector擦拭嘴角的饮料，我感悟到这才是自然的和谐。第二段开头是：On the way home that night ,Dylan asked me several times whether Hector would be okay.儿子很关心Hector的情况。后文应当描写儿子在这次去作者工作的医院遇到有心结的病人Hector之后的变化过程。
