Thank you!阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两端，使之构成一篇完整的短
文。
When I was a child, we lived next door to the Schonfield Home. People who got
too old to take care of themselves lived there. I was a regular visitor and volunteer there.
I enjoyed spending time with the caring and responsible workers and the old people
who always seemed happy to see me.
One day, a very old lady named Mrs. Kurtz moved to the Schonfield Home. She
seemed sad all the time. For days, I had never seen her smile or laugh like the other old
people. And no one ever came to visit her. My parents learned that she had no family
or friends.
Weeks after Mrs. Kurtz moved into the Schonfield Home, I was visiting the home
again. And I saw her sitting alone, looking unusually upset. I asked one of the other old
people, Mrs. Smith, why Mrs. Kurtz was more depressed than usual. Mrs. Smith
explained to me that Mrs. Kurtz had turned eighty-nine, and that she was upset to be
celebrating another birthday all alone without any cards or gifts. She truly believed
there was no one in the world who loved her.
This moved me deeply, and I started to create a plan in my mind. I ran home and
raced to my room. I took out my piggy bank that I always valued. And I poured out all
the money that I had received on birthdays and other special occasions. I had been
saving money for a new bike. Although the money wasn’t enough to buy a bike, it was
enough for what I wanted to do then.
I raced down the stairs. My mother was cleaning the house. I walked to her and
explained what I was about to do, and she smiled at me proudly. She planted a kiss on
my cheek and said, “I must be the luckiest mother in the world to have such a caring
daughter.” My mother stopped what she was doing.
