（21-22高二下·广东珠海·期末）阅读下列短文，并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。
Poor little Maggie was left alone after her mother died. What’s worse, no one would like to take her home. Two years before, a fall from a window had injured her spine, and she had not been able to leave her bed since.
“Take her to the orphanage(孤儿院),” said a neighbour. Joe Thompson, farmer who happened to pass by, paused and said to him, “It’s a cruel thing to send her there.” “Oh, Sir,” Maggie cried out, “don’t leave me here all alone!”
Though not good-looking in appearance. Joe Thompson had a soft heart. He liked children. “No, dear,” he answered, “you shall not be left alone.” Lifting her in his strong arms, he took her across the field to his home.
“Who is she?” sharply questioned Mrs. Thompson upon his return home. “Wait a moment for explanations, and be gentle,” Joe said equally sharply back. He carried Maggie to a small room on the first floor, and laid her on a bed. Then, stepping back, he shut the door, and stood face to face with his angry wife.
“I can’t believe it that you’ve brought home a sick child!” Her face was in a flame. “I think women’s hearts are sometimes very hard,” said Joe. His sudden outbreak had impressed his wife and he added quickly, “This poor motherless little one needs a family. Let’s keep her here.”
The voice of the strong, rough man shook, and he turned his head away, so that the tears in his eyes could not be seen. Mrs. Thompson did not answer, but a soft feeling crept into her heart. “Look at her kindly, Jane, and speak to her kindly,” said Joe, “Think of her dead mother, and the loneliness, the pain, the sorrow that must be on all her coming life.” Mrs. Thompson did not reply, but turned towards the little room where her husband had put Maggie: and, pushing open the door, went quietly in. Joe did not follow; he felt that it would be best to leave her alone with the child.

【答案】
But he could not help looking in through the window. Maggie’s eyes were fixed on his wife. But he saw nothing of her usual coldness, or rudeness. She asked the poor child whether she needed bread and an egg. The poor child nodded heavily and almost cried with her eyes full of tears. Mrs. Thompson gently put her hands on the child’s head, knelt down and gave her a hug.
Out came Mrs. Thompson who seemed to have made a decision. She stared at Joe Thompson gruffly but walked directly towards the kitchen. The little girl ate with great pleasure and gave the woman a look of thankfulness which awoke her softest feelings down in her heart which had been hidden in one corner. “I don’t mind keeping her one year or two” said Mrs. Thompson. Thompson smiled while holding out his arms towards her. In fact since then, the house had been full sunshine of love.
