People say there seems to be so much negativity in this world, but there are good people out there and sometimes we are made aware of them when we least expect it.
My family had been planning a yard sale for several weeks. Our five-year-old son, Braxton, asked if he could set up a lemonade (檸檬水) stand during the yard sale. He wanted to make a little money and save up to buy a set of Lego bricks, which might add up to $100. “I will earn it myself!” he declared proudly. He had been talking about it almost non-stop and couldn’t wait for the day to finally arrive.
Two days ago, we put up the sign “Yard Sale” in front of the driveway, telling neighbors about the time and items. On the very day, Braxton woke up early at 6:00 am and couldn’t hide his excitement. After setting everything out for the yard sale, he made the lemonade and baked some cookies to begin his business adventure.
After about an hour or more, we had several customers, but Braxton still had not sold any lemonade. He was a little sad. Then a young woman walked up with her baby to browse the items. While making small talk, we told her about Braxton’s plan to save his money for his little dream. She then selected a couple of baby toys for just $6 and paid with a $10 bill. “Keep the change, boy!” she said gently. Braxton offered to give her the lemonade and cookies he made. He couldn’t have been happier to receive his first little bit of money for the day.
The woman left with the baby toys, the lemonade and some cookies. We didn’t give it much thought after that, but the story didn’t end there.

文章大意：
本文講述了作者一家舉辦庭院舊貨出售活動，五歲的兒子 Braxton 想通過賣檸檬水和自制餅干賺錢買樂高積木的故事。活動開始后 Braxton 許久未賣出檸檬水，有些失落，直到一位年輕女士買了些嬰兒玩具，不僅沒要找零，還接受了 Braxton 送的檸檬水和餅干，這讓他很開心。然而故事并未結束，女士離開后又折返回來，發生了更令人感動的事。
伏筆及續寫回應：
Braxton 想攢錢買樂高積木（$100）：為女士后來湊齊他買積木的錢埋下伏筆，續寫中女士給了他$94，加上之前的 $6，正好可以買積木，回應了這個伏筆。
Braxton 精心準備了檸檬水和餅干：女士買東西時接受了這些，這一情節為后來女士被 Braxton 的努力和真誠打動，從而再次返回幫助他做了鋪墊，續寫中女士回來送錢的舉動，進一步體現出她對 Braxton 的認可和支持，回應了此處伏筆。
女士買東西時得知 Braxton 的攢錢計劃：這一情節暗示女士可能會對 Braxton 有所幫助，續寫中女士特意回來送錢，是對這個伏筆的回應，表明她記住了 Braxton 的夢想并愿意助力。
女士離開后故事未結束：引起讀者好奇，為她的再次出現埋下伏筆，續寫中女士回來送錢的情節使故事得以完整，解開了這個懸念，回應了此處伏筆。
女士溫柔地讓 Braxton 留著找零：體現出女士的善良，為她后續更大的善舉（送錢）做了鋪墊，續寫中女士的慷慨相助進一步升華了她善良的形象，回應了這個伏筆。
續寫要點：
情感線：從 Braxton 一開始因未賣出檸檬水的失落，到收到第一筆錢的開心，再到女士回來送錢時的驚喜與感動，以及作者一家對女士善良之舉的感激與震撼，情感逐步升華，充分展現了人物內心豐富的情感變化。
故事線：女士離開幾分鐘后返回，將裝有 $94 的信封交給 Braxton，幫助他湊齊買樂高積木的錢，這個情節推動故事發展至高潮，完整地講述了一個充滿溫暖與善意的故事，情節連貫且富有邏輯性。
主旨升華句：
This unexpected act of kindness not only made Braxton's day but also restored our faith in the goodness of people.（這一意外的善舉不僅讓 Braxton 開心了一整天，也重拾了我們對人性之善的信心。）
It was a small gesture that carried a powerful message: kindness has the power to turn an ordinary day into an extraordinary one.（這雖是一個小小的舉動，卻傳遞了一個有力的信息：善良有將平凡的一天變得非凡的力量。）
In a world that often seems cold and indifferent, the warmth of a stranger's heart can light up the darkest corners.（在一個常常看似冷漠無情的世界里，陌生人的熱心能照亮最黑暗的角落。）
The kindness of this woman was like a beacon, showing us that even the simplest act of giving can have a profound impact on someone's life.（這位女士的善良就像一座燈塔，讓我們明白即使是最微小的給予行為也能對他人的生活產生深遠的影響。）
This experience taught us that no act of kindness is ever wasted, and that the ripples of generosity can spread far and wide, touching lives in the most unexpected ways.（這次經歷讓我們懂得，任何善舉都不會白費，慷慨之舉的漣漪會擴散得很遠很廣，以最意想不到的方式觸動人們的生活。）
寫作示范一：
第一段：
Several minutes passed and the woman returned. She walked briskly towards us, a warm smile on her face. This time, she held an envelope in her hand. "I just couldn't stop thinking about how hard you're working, Braxton," she said as she crouched down to his level. She handed him the envelope and continued, "Inside is a little something to help you get those Lego bricks even sooner. You deserve it for being such a determined little entrepreneur." Braxton's eyes grew wide with astonishment and delight. He thanked her shyly, clutching the envelope tightly.
第二段：
Holding the envelope and the bill, we were so moved. As we opened the envelope, we found $94 neatly tucked inside. Tears welled up in our eyes as we realized what this meant for Braxton. The woman's kindness was beyond words. She had not only noticed Braxton's efforts but had also gone out of her way to make his dream come true. It was a simple act, but it spoke volumes about the power of kindness and generosity. This experience would stay with us forever, a reminder that in the midst of life's hustle and bustle, there are still those who take the time to make a difference, one small act of kindness at a time.
寫作示范二：
第一段：
Several minutes passed and the woman returned. She was accompanied by her husband this time, and they both had gentle smiles on their faces. The woman walked up to Braxton and said, "We talked on the way home, and we wanted to do something special for you." She then presented him with an envelope. "There's some money in there to help you with your Lego set. We believe in you and your hard work." Braxton's face lit up like a Christmas tree. He couldn't believe his luck and thanked them with all his heart.
第二段：
Holding the envelope and the bill, we were so moved. When we peeked inside, we saw that it was exactly the amount Braxton needed to complete his savings. We were speechless at the couple's thoughtfulness and generosity. This act of kindness was like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. It showed us that kindness is contagious and that when we least expect it, people can come into our lives and change them for the better. It was a lesson for all of us to pay it forward and spread kindness wherever we go, because you never know how much of an impact it can have on someone's life.
讀后續寫參考答案
Paragraph 1:
Several minutes passed and the woman returned. “Is there anything wrong ” I thought to myself. I actually thought she was here to ask for her change back. Of course, I couldn’t have been more wrong. She was carrying an envelope this time. She handed it to us and said, “The lemonade and cookies are so delicious that I want to buy all of them. I hope you can give them away to whoever passes by your stand for me.” We thanked her and she walked away. We opened the envelope after she left and found a $100 bill in it.
Paragraph 2:
Holding the envelope and the bill, we were so moved. It was just a random act of kindness by a total stranger that would make a little five-year-old boy’s wish come true. At the same time, she delivered that kindness to other strangers by offering them lemonade and cookies for free. She obviously did not do it for praise or recognition. She just did it out of the kindness of her heart. Contrary to what some may think, the positivity in this world really does outweigh the negativity. There are good people around us doing good deeds, asking for nothing back.
