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。
Ezri and Oliver were so keen to climb the mountain that they begged to join their dad Brandon for another hike. Just after 8 a. m. on a beautiful Sunday morning, they set off. Brandon’s backpack held his phone, Clif bars (能量棒), packets of apple sauce, apples, water bottles and fishing gear.
Brandon had planned a varied route up the mountain. The winding upward slope was fun and uneventful. Near the top, thick snow blanketed the path. Excitedly, the kids raced across the hard surface. They shared the second-last Clif bar and rested for an hour. Brandon looked around. His phone showed 1:30 p. m. and no signals.
When the kids started down, Brandon said, “You guys really want to find those fishing lakes, don’t you?”
“Oh, yes!” Ezri said. So they took an unfamiliar route down the other side of the mountain.
By the time Brandon realized the path had become an animal trail alongside a stream, it made sense to keep following it. The stream sang to them, and they kept following it down. Mid afternoon, when the sun disappeared behind heavy gray clouds, they suddenly felt lost, cold and hungry. For half an hour they cautiously moved downward until they reached a steep cliff (悬崖) edge. The stream became a noisy, six-metre waterfall. Mist enveloped them as the water raced over a huge rock.
Brandon cursed (咒骂) himself for taking an unknown route down. They held hands and inched down until Oliver slid on a loose rock and all three went flying.
Brandon wiped blood from his forehead and gathered his senses. Was anyone hurt? Oliver, crying and shivering, seemed okay. Ezri was weeping, but she too appeared uninjured. Brandon himself didn’t feel anything worse than the wound on his forehead. The backpack was stuck in the rocks six meters away. He saw no use trying to find it back. The air was cold and getting colder. They were wet and tired.

情节分析
这个故事讲述了一个叫Ezri和Oliver的孩子们非常渴望爬山，恳求他们的爸爸Brandon再次带他们去远足。一个美丽的星期天上午8点过一点，他们出发了。Brandon的背包里装着手机、Clif能量棒、苹果酱袋、苹果、水瓶和钓鱼装备。
Brandon计划了一条多样化的登山路线。蜿蜒的上坡道很有趣而平稳。靠近山顶，厚厚的雪覆盖了路径。孩子们兴奋地在坚硬的表面上比赛。他们分享了倒数第二个Clif能量棒，并休息了一个小时。Brandon环顾四周。他的手机显示下午1:30，没有信号。
当孩子们开始下山时，Brandon说：“你们真的想到那些钓鱼湖，对吗？”
“哦，是的！”Ezri说。所以他们选择了山的另一边一个不熟悉的路线下山。
当Brandon意识到这条路径已经变成了一条沿着溪流的动物小径时，继续沿着它走下去似乎是有道理的。溪流向他们唱歌，他们继续沿着溪流下行。下午中午，当太阳消失在厚厚的灰云层后，他们突然感到迷失、寒冷和饥饿。他们小心翼翼地向下移动了半个小时，直到他们到达一个陡峭的悬崖边缘。溪流变成了一个喧闹的六米高的瀑布。水在一块巨石上奔流，迷雾笼罩着他们。
Brandon对自己选择了一条未知的下山路线感到后悔。他们手牵着手小心翼翼地往下爬，直到Oliver在一块松动的石头上滑倒，三个人都跌倒了。
Brandon擦了擦额头上的血，集中了自己的思绪。有人受伤了吗？Oliver哭泣着发抖，看起来
还好。Ezri在哭泣，但她似乎也没有受伤。Brandon自己除了额头上的伤口外没有感觉到更糟糕的情况。背包被卡在六米远的石头上。他觉得没必要去回它。空气很冷，而且越来越冷。他们湿透了，疲惫不堪。
续写思路
Paragraph 1：
在这段中，首句内容“为了拯救孩子们，Brandon意识到他必须独自寻出路。”可知，第一段可描写布兰登独自离开去寻出路，最终遇到了一个徒步旅行者家庭，他们拨打了911。
Paragraph 2：
在这段中，首句内容“一架直升机带着父亲和许多志愿者立即起飞。”可知，第二段可描写布兰登和志愿者成功到孩子们，布兰登非常感动。
参考答案
To save the kids, Brandon realized he had to look for a way out alone. After he made the d
ecision, he wrapped his coat around them and kissed each of them on the forehead. “Stay here, no matter what. I’ll go for help,” he repeated several times in a trembling voice. In the following hours, Brandon walked through the bush and even suffered another bad fall on the way. Exhausted and bloodied, he emerged from the forest and bumped into a family of hikers, who called 911.
A helicopter with the father and many volunteers set off immediately. On the return trip, Brandon anxiously described the general location of the children to the rescuers. Finally, after a long search, they successfully located the poor children. Upon the helicopter’s arrival, Brandon jumped off and ran to embrace his children, moved to see so many strangers in bright red jackets. Every time he thinks of bright red jackets, he would feel he was not alone there’s always someone out there who is willing to help.
为了拯救孩子们，Brandon意识到他必须独自寻出路。在做出决定后，他把外套裹在他们身上，亲吻了他们每个人的额头。“无论发生什么事，都待在这里。我会去寻求帮助。”他用颤抖的声音重复了几遍。在接下来的几个小时里，Brandon穿过灌木丛，甚至在途中再次摔
uneventful
倒。筋疲力尽、满身是血，他走出森林，撞上了一家徒步旅行者的家庭，他们打电话给了911。
一架直升机带着父亲和许多志愿者立即起飞。在回程中，Brandon焦急地向救援人员描述了孩子们的大致位置。经过漫长的搜索，他们成功到了这些可怜的孩子。直升机到达时，Brandon跳下来跑去拥抱他的孩子，感动地看到许多穿着鲜红夹克的陌生人。每当他想起鲜红夹克，他都会感到他不是孤单的，总有人愿意伸出援手。
