My wife and I bought a secondhand car for our tour. During our two months on the road, Lucy and I had a really 36 experience with a good, honest garage and some helpful 37 .

We were driving west on Highway 101 when our "check engine" light came on. We limped of (拐入) a (n ) 38 into Las Cruces. We had a real car 39. Lucy pulled the car into a local garage. By this time the car was 40 so badly that it was shaking all over. This was the 41  _ time to arrive at a garage--late Friday afternoon. Service adviser Olivia was busy 42 paper work and customers as we explained our problems. 43 there were already “ten cars behind”,  he told us to 44 the car into the garage.

Evelyn, who we later 45 was one of the top motor technicians, took 46 of our car repairing. He and Olivia and some other repairmen stayed several hours after closing, 47_    the car.

Early the next morning (the shop was 48 closed on Saturdays) , Evelyn finally located the problem and fixed it easily within only 49  .

Later Olivia pointed out to us that it was our 50 that helped. " You didn't come into the place demanding this or that. You showed an 51  of our problems on a busy Friday afternoon. Customer's attitude 52  a lot.  He was right in some way, customers should show politeness and understanding to people who  53 them. Even if people were extremely busy, they found way to 54 try and help when they are met with politeness.

The pleasant experience I had shows that 55 for other people can always help.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

I was on a tour of Italy with my friends. Our car pulled to a stop at the beach. I got out, carrying my guitar and saw the blue Adriatic Sea. Waves smashed(撞击) against large rocks that formed a jetty(防波堤). People said this beach was known for its fierce undertow(回流). I trembled. Nothing frightened me as much as water.

I’d always loved water and been a good swimmer until last summer, when I'd decided to climb up to the highest diving board at a city pool. I'd jumped into the water. The next thing I knew was my brother was pulling me out of the pool. From then on, I stayed away from the water.

“Kevin, are you coming? " My friend Brad called.

“Yeah,” I said. "Just enjoying the view.” From dry land, I added silently.

Just then I heard shouting. People were running into the sea.

I saw something moving up and down amid the waves. There was a little boy out there! The rescuers were fighting against the tide(潮水). They’d never get to him in time. They might not get to him at all with the undertow.

I looked back at the boy. His head popped up, then a wave crashed over him and he disappeared for a moment. I had to do something.

The jetty! The boy was close to it. From there maybe I could help. I raced down the beach, out onto the jetty, and it hit me: Water! My hands got sweaty and I felt sick to my stomach. I stopped short.

The people in the water weren't making any headway against the waves. I was the only one who saw that going out onto the jetty was the fastest way to reach the drowning boy. Though I was as terrified as he, I tried to remember the life guard training I’d had as a teenager.

Sucking in(吸气) a deep breath, I threw myself into the water. As soon as I went under it, I felt like I was back in that city pool, breathless, struggling. Focus, I shouted in my head. Where is he？

注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；

2.至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；

3.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；

4.续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。
