On a snowy day Steve sat down on the usual seat in the Union Square. Every Thanksgiving for nine years he had sat down there at one in the afternoon. Every time, a wonderful thing happened to him, which made his heart feel full of joy.
On those other Thanksgiving Days, Steve usually had been hungry. But today Steve was not hungry. He had come from a dinner so big that he had almost no power to move. His body had suddenly become too big for his clothes; it seemed ready to break out of them. They were torn. You could see his skin through a hole in the front of his shirt. But the cold wind, with snow in it, felt pleasantly cool to him.
The dinner had not been expected. He had been passing a large house near the beginning of that great broad street called Fifth Avenue, where lived two ladies of an old family who had a deep love of tradition that on Thanksgiving Day food will be offered to the first hungry person to walk by. Today Steve happened to be the one to pass by on his way to the park.
Steve sat in the park, appearing to be waiting for somebody, but appearing not to expect something to happen. Suddenly his eyes grew wider and his breath stopped. For the old gentleman was coming across Fourth Avenue toward Steve's seat.
Every Thanksgiving Day for nine years the old gentleman had come there to find Steve on his seat. Then he had led Steve to a restaurant and watched him eat a big dinner, which had been a part of Thanksgiving Day. The old gentleman was thin and tall and sixty. His hair was whiter and thinner than it had been last year. His legs shook, seeming not as strong as they were the year before.

文章大意：史蒂夫连续九年在感恩节下午一点坐在联合广场的老位置上，每次都会有奇妙的事情发生。以往他都饥肠辘辘，而这次他刚在第五大道附近的大房子里享用了一顿丰盛的感恩节大餐，那是房子的两位女士遵循传统为路过的第一个饥饿者提供的。此时，那位每年都会带他去餐厅吃感恩节大餐的老绅士正朝他走来，老绅士已年老体弱，头发愈发花白稀疏，双腿也不如从前有力。
伏笔及回应：伏笔 “Every Thanksgiving Day for nine years the old gentleman had come there to find Steve on his seat. Then he had led Steve to a restaurant and watched him eat a big dinner” 为后文老绅士依旧前来找史蒂夫并打算带他去吃饭做了铺垫。续写中老绅士的行为和话语回应了这一伏笔，即使史蒂夫已吃过饭，他仍坚持履行惯例。
续写要点：
第一段：描写史蒂夫看到老绅士走来时的紧张反应，内心的纠结，因为他已吃过饭但又不想让老绅士失望，同时回忆起与老绅士过往的点滴。
第二段：老绅士表达自己的坚持，希望史蒂夫能像往常一样接受晚餐，史蒂夫最终被老绅士的坚持和善意打动，决定陪老绅士前往餐厅，展现两人之间深厚的情谊以及感恩与善意的传递。
情感线：开始看到老绅士时因已用餐而感到不安与紧张，回忆过往产生感动与纠结，最后被老绅士的坚持打动而心怀感恩与温暖。
故事线：老绅士在感恩节像往常一样走向坐在广场的史蒂夫，史蒂夫虽已用餐但因老绅士的到来而内心波澜起伏，老绅士坚持要带史蒂夫去餐厅，史蒂夫最终答应，延续了多年的感恩节传统。

Paragraph 1:
As this kind old gentleman came toward him, Steve began to shake and his breath was shorter. His mind raced, thinking of how to tell the old man he was already full. Memories of past Thanksgivings flooded in, the old man's gentle smile and the warm meals they had shared. He felt a pang of guilt for not being in his usual state of hunger. But he didn't want to break the tradition or disappoint the old gentleman.
Paragraph 2:
With these words, the old man looked into Steve's eyes, expecting Steve to accept the dinner. Steve, deeply touched by the old man's insistence and kindness, finally nodded. He realized that it was not just about the meal but the precious bond between them. As they walked to the restaurant, Steve felt a new kind of warmth. The old man's unwavering commitment to this tradition had reaffirmed the meaning of Thanksgiving - the sharing of love and kindness, regardless of circumstances.

As this kind old gentleman came toward him, Steve began to shake and his breath was shorter. He shifted uncomfortably on the seat, his heart heavy.

He was torn between honesty and the desire to maintain the beautiful ritual.

He understood that the old man's act was a symbol of their friendship and the spirit of Thanksgiving. He smiled and said he would be honored. Hand in hand, they made their way to the restaurant. This encounter taught Steve that some traditions are worth preserving, and true kindness always finds a way to shine through, even in the most unexpected situations.
参考范文
As this kind old gentleman came toward him, Steve began to shake and his breath was shorter. He wished he could fly away. But he could not move from his seat. “Good afternoon,” said the old gentleman. “Glad to see you again. Come with me, my man, and I will give you a dinner that will surely make your body feel as thankful as your mind.” Those are what the old gentleman said every time. The words themselves were almost a tradition. Always before, they had been music in Steve’s ear. But now he looked up at the old gentleman’s face, totally at a loss what to say.
With these words, the old man looked into Steve’s eyes, expecting Steve to accept the dinner. Steve hesitated for half a minute, helpless and very sorry for himself. And then Steve made a strange noise, and said: “Thank you. I’m very hungry.” which the old gentleman had heard nine times before, he understood it. Steve was very full, but he understood that he was a part of a tradition. His desire for food on Thanksgiving Day was not his own. It belonged to this kind old gentleman. Then he struggled to stand up and followed the gentleman in the snow.
