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。 I was in New York City on a school trip. I called home from a pay phone, and my little sister, Alex, said four envelopes had arrived: Georgetown, Cornell, William and Mary and the University of Massachusetts. She then opened and read them to me in her ten-year-old voice: “We regret that we do not have a place for you...” Rejected from Georgetown. “You were one of many qualified candidates...” Rejected from Cornell. And number seventy-three on a waiting list of seventy-five at William and Mary. Accepted to U Mass, my safety school. I didn’t digest the rejections immediately. I toured the United Nations, took train home and went back to school. Then I realized that other people had gotten into schools they really wanted to go to. Up to that point in my seventeen years, I hadn’t really failed at anything. I got good grades, made the school team and scored well on my SATs. I hadn’t experienced any major disappointments in my life, no deaths, no disease, no divorce, no cavities (龋齿) even. So being rejected seemed disastrous. I had always assumed I’d go to one of the“good schools.”I really wanted to be chosen: This is the place for smart people, and we want you. U Mass, on the other hand, had the reputation of being a party school to which, come September, I’d be headed with the guy who sat next to me in tenth-grade history and who, during tests, left his book open on the floor and turned the pages with his feet. I did not get active like my friend Heather, who, having been rejected by her first choice, made I Love Lucy-style plans to drive to the Duke campus with her soccer ball and her science-fair project to show the admissions board(招生委员会) exactly what they were rejecting. I simply said things like, “I’ve decided to give up the undergraduate degree and take a cake-decorating course.” The subtext in this was: I’m stupid. The world isn’t fair. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I remained bitter until one day, my father sat me down. _____ Deeply touched by his words, I began to reassess my situation. _____ 一、文章大意 文章讲述了 “我” 在纽约参加学校旅行时，得知大学申请结果：被心仪的 Georgetown、Cornell 和 William and Mary 拒绝，仅被保底校 U Mass 录取。一直顺遂的 “我” 深受打击，陷入痛苦与自我否定，觉得去 U Mass 如同与不那么上进的同学为伍，是无奈之举。与积极争取的朋友 Heather 形成对比，“我” 消极对待，甚至想放弃本科去学蛋糕装饰，认为世界不公，自己不够聪明。但父亲的开导让 “我” 重新审视这一困境，为故事转折埋下伏笔。 二、伏笔及续写回应 伏笔：“我” 之前人生顺遂，没经历过重大挫折。 回应：续写中通过父亲引导 “我” 认识到挫折是成长必经，过往顺遂不代表未来无挑战，让 “我” 从这次失败汲取力量重新振作。 伏笔：U Mass 有 “派对学校” 的名声，“我” 瞧不上。 回应：后续 “我” 重新审视时，发现学校课程、教授的亮点，转变看法，意识到不能仅凭刻板印象评判学校。 伏笔：朋友 Heather 被拒后积极争取。 回应：与 “我” 的消极形成反差，促 ... ...
