Ⅱ 读后续写
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。
As an old saying goes，we make a living by what we get，but make a life by what we give.
I truly believe that a job is definitely not a job if you love what you are doing.Many years ago，I worked in an employment and insurance office，which helps people find jobs，apply for employment and insurance，and return to school for training.What could be more rewarding than to help someone find a job or change their career？
I have always said that people are at their worst when they are unemployed or sick.I must admit that some days were challenging.But I have one amazing story that I would like to share.
One day，a lady came to the office with a dream of becoming a registered nurse.According to my client，her family did not approve.She was a mother with young children，and her husband had returned to school for training.It was not economically practical for her to return to school.
It was clear that this lady had a passion for the nursing profession，so I encouraged her to realize her dream.I equipped her with the information necessary to apply for nursing school，and she left the office.She went on her way，and I never knew whether she followed her dream or not.
Many years later，I was diagnosed（诊断） with cancer of the stomach and was admitted to the hospital for an operation.I must admit I was scared.My mother had died of cancer at age forty.I had a husband and two beautiful children.I was only forty-eight years old.The surgery was successful.It was，however，very painful.Days flew smoothly as I recovered from the pain.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右﹔
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
But one night the pain began growing stronger.
“You never know what a great impact your encouraging words had on me，” the nurse said.
