A Run to Remember
Thirteen can be a challenging age．Not only did I have to adapt to my changing body．I also had to deal with my parents' bitter divorce，a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded suburb．
When we moved．my beloved companion，a small brown pony（小马）,had to be sold．Feeling helpless and alone．I couldn't eat or sleep，and I cried all of the time．I missed my family．my home and my pony．Finally,my father，realizing how much I missed my pony，purchased an old red horse for me at a local market.
My horse,Cowboy，was without a doubt the ugliest horse in the world．He was pigeon-toed and knock-kneed．But I didn't care about his faults．I loved him beyond all reasons．
I joined a riding club and faced rude comments and mean snickers about Cowboy's looks．I never let on how I felt，but deep down inside，my heart was breaking．The other members rode beautiful registered horses．
When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse is judged on appearance，we were quickly out of the game．I finally realized that my only chance to compete would be in the timed-speed events．I chose barrel racing（绕桶赛），an event in which a horse and its rider attempt to complete a triangular pattern around three barrels in the fastest time．
One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events．She always won the blue ribbons．Needless to say，she didn't feel threatened when I competed against her at the next show．She didn't need to．I came in next to last．
The bitter memory of Becky's smirks（得意的笑）made me determined to beat her．For the whole next month，I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena（运动场地）. We practiced for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home．On the way home I would be so tired；those five miles seemed twice as long．
All of our hard work didn't make me feel confident by the time the show came．I sat at the gate and sweated it out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the pattern of barrels，finishing the course with case．
Para1:My turn finally came.
Para2:No cheers filled the air when I finished my show．
文本解析：本文主要讲述了作者13岁就承受着家庭的变故，搬离家乡来到拥堵陌生的城镇，失去了宠物小马驹的陪伴很孤独。后来其貌不扬的Cowboy参加赛马比赛，成了黑马。作者通过这次比赛领悟到：只要自己足够努力，就可以主宰自己的命运。
续写第一段的首句：My turn finally came. 根据所给文章第7段The bitter memory of Becky's smirks made me determined to beat her．For the whole next month，I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena．We practiced for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home．On the way home I would be so tired；those five miles seemed twice as long．可以看出为了这次胜算不大的比赛，我和Cowboy勤学苦练。所以后面不难推测应该写比赛过程。读后续写遵循曲折性原则（凡是故事都应有跌宕起伏或矛盾冲突，其中人物会遇到困难或问题，但最终能解决。但情节设计不能过于复杂或离奇。）所以本段可以写在赛场上面对劲敌，人和马的努力，克服困难。
续写第二段的首句：No cheers filled the air when I finished my show．（人们看到结果后都沉默了。）由所给文章第六段“One girl named Becky rode. a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. "可见，Becky是众望所归。而且，Cowboy其貌不扬(My horse, Cowboy，was without a doubt the ugliest horse in the world．)，众人都不看好它。人们为什么会沉默呢？根据读后续写的正能量原则，那么本段后面可以接着写Cowboy变成了黑马大大出乎观众们的意料，此时的观众们有何反应 而此时的我领悟到了什么呢？（通过努力可以成为自己命运的主人）
My turn finally came. As I urged Cowboy forward, he stumbled, and almost fell, much to the delight of the other riders(令其他骑手高兴的是). I jammed my hat down on my head, stroked （抚摸）Cowboy's big red neck and entered the arena.At the signal, we dashed toward（朝...冲去） the first barrel， quickly whipped（鞭打） around it and with perfect precision rounded the second and thundered on to the third. We tore around（到处乱窜） the final curve（弯道） and shot for （向...冲去）the finish line.
No cheers filled the air when I finished my show. The end of our run was met with surprised silence. With the sound of my heart pounding in my ears, I heard the announcer（播音员） call our time. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her proud fancy horse! I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that I'd always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it. I can be the master of my own destiny.
