Sam, Wayne and Tim were three men in their 60s, jamming in the same dusty old garage where they used to play music when they were in high school. They chatted up after ages, remembering the school days when they would take to the stage and play together as a band.
Wayne looked around, wide-eyed. “It’s been more than 40 years since we practised here.”
“Yes! And remember how we promised to keep in touch and play together once a week ” Tim laughed. “Sam, remember our brilliant plans ”
“Ah yes! We thought we were inseparable! Now, look at us! Old and wrinkled, joints hurting, meeting at each other’s grandkids’ weddings… we’re terrible at keeping in touch, except Will, of course. He was always calling and messaging. Where is Will He’s the guy who planned this,” Sam smiled.
Just then, the three men’s phones buzzed (嗡嗡地响), and the message they received made their hearts sink. It was a message from Jenny, Will’s wife. Wayne rushed to his car, and the others followed. A short drive later, the three men knocked on the door of Will’s house and tried to wait patiently.
Jenny looked almost unrecognizably pale and told them that Will was taking a nap. The medicines made him all weak. It moved the three men to tears to see their fourth band member in such poor health.
And that day, they found out the whole story of Will’s illness. Will’s heart condition was serious, and it had been worsening over the past few months. The doctor said only a surgery could help. But it was going to cost at least $15,000. And after all the previous treatments, Will and Jenny didn’t have that kind of money anymore. Jenny said the doctors had given Will 6 months, bursting into helpless tears. The three men comforted her and wiped their own tears. “Money isn’t an issue,” Sam said as an idea came to him.

情节分析
Sam、Wayne和Tim是三位60多岁的男人，在一间尘土飞扬的老车库里一起玩音乐，就像他们高中时期一样。他们聊起了多年不见的事情，回忆起他们在学校时一起登台演出的日子，作为一个乐队一起演奏。
Wayne瞪大眼睛四处看着。“我们上次在这里练习已经超过40年了。”
“是啊！还记得我们曾经承诺保持联系，每周一次一起演奏吗？”Tim笑着说。“Sam，还记得我们的伟大计划吗？”
“啊是的！我们当时觉得我们是形影不离的！现在看看我们！老去皱纹，关节疼痛，只在彼此的孙子女的婚礼上见面……我们真是不擅长保持联系，除了Will，当然。他总是打电话和发信息。Will在哪里？他是策划这次聚会的人，”Sam笑着说。
就在这时，三个人的手机嗡嗡地响了，他们收到的信息让他们的心沉了下去。是Jenny，Will的妻子发来的消息。Wayne冲向车子，其他人紧随其后。经过短暂的车程，三个人敲响了Will家的门，并试图耐心等待。
Jenny看起来苍白得几乎认不出来了，她告诉他们Will正在午睡。药物让他很虚弱。看到他们的第四位乐队成员身体状况如此糟糕，三个人感动得流下了眼泪。
那天，他们了解到了Will病情的全部故事。Will的心脏病情很严重，在过去几个月里一直在恶化。医生说只有手术才能帮助他。但至少需要花费15,000美元。在之前的治疗后，Will和Jenny已经没有那么多的钱了。Jenny说医生给了Will6个月的时间，她无助地流下了眼泪。三个人安慰她，擦干了自己的眼泪。“钱不是问题，”Sam说，他脑海中浮现出一个主意。
续写思路
Paragraph 1：
在这段中，首句内容“第二天，三个人带着他们的乐器来到繁忙的街角。”可知，第一段可描写三个人进行募捐活动。
Paragraph 2：
在这段中，首句内容“三个月后，Will终于被送进了医院。”可知，第二段可描写Will得到成功救助，他们又一起相聚。
参考答案
The next day the three men brought their instruments to the busy street corner. They set up the sound, a stand with the band name “Playing for Will” and a big stack of flyers to hand out. The men stood there for hours, playing song after song from the golden era of music. They were still perfect together, except for Will’s soulful voice that was missing. Although they were very busy, they were very happy to think of collecting money for Will.
Will was finally admitted to hospital three months later. With enough money, they paid for Will’s life-saving surgery. The doctors were highly qualified and the surgery was very successful. Will soon recovered smoothly. Will and Jenny were very grateful to their three friends. After that, there was another jamming session at the same dusty old garage. Only this time, there weren’t just three happy old men reminiscing the old days; there were all four. It seemed like yesterday once more.
第二天，三个人带着他们的乐器来到繁忙的街角。他们设置了音响，一个带有乐队名字“为Will演奏”的支架，还有一大堆要分发的传单。他们站在那里数小时，演奏着那个黄金时代的歌曲。他们仍然完美地合作着，只是缺少了Will那富有灵魂的声音。尽管他们很忙，但他们为为Will筹集资金感到非常高兴。
三个月后，Will终于被送进了医院。凭借足够的资金，他们支付了Will的救命手术费用。医生们都非常有资质，手术非常成功。Will很快顺利康复。Will和Jenny非常感激他们的三个朋友。之后，他们在同一个尘土飞扬的老车库里再次举行了一场即兴演奏会。只不过这一次，不再只有三个快乐的老人回忆过去的日子，还有第四个人Will。仿佛昨天又回来了。
