读后续写

（2017.6浙江卷）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。

On a bright, warm July afternoon, Mac Hollan, a primary school teacher, was cycling from his home to Alaska with his friends. One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair, but they had encouraged Mac to carry on, and they would catch up with him soon. As Mac pedaled (骑行) along alone, he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters at home. He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday.

Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. “Man, that’s a big dog!” he thought. But when he looked to the side, he saw instantly that it wasn’t a dog at all, but a wolf, quickly catching up with him.

Mac’s heart jumped. He found out his can of bear spray. With one hand on the bars, he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal, and to Mac’s relief, it fell back, shaking its head. But a minute later, it was by his side again. Then it attacked the back of Mac’s bike, tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and again, it fell back only to quickly restart the chase（追赶）.

Mac was pedaling hard now. He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to slow down. He was a steep uphill climb before him. He knew that once he hit the hill, he’d be easy caught up and the wolf’s teeth would be tearing into his flesh.

At this moment, Paul and Becky were driving their car on their way to Alaska. They didn’t think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road. A bit later, they spotted what they, too, assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike. As they got closer, they realized that the dog was a wolf. Mac heard a large vehicle behind him. He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast, just a dozen yards away now.

【学生习作评阅】

Student One:

Para1: The car abruptly stopped in front of him. “Come on, get in the car.” Paul shouted and opened the door. Mac jumped off the bike and slided into the car without hesitation as the wolf was about to tear Mac into pieces. What a narrow escape! Though Mac was safe, he still felt the dread stopping the passage of air to his lung, with his legs trembling. After a few minutes, he suddenly shouted, “oh my god, my friends are still repairing the bicycle!” Without a second thought, Paul drove the car quickly back to the two cyclists, only to find they were gone. Being enormously worried, they decided to wait for them at Mac’s home.

Student Two:

Para1: The car abruptly stopped in front of him. Paul rolled down the window and yelled, “Man, get in the car!” Without any hesitation, Mac jumped off the bicycle and dashed into the back seat of the car. At the same time, the wolf caught up. Luckily, the car’s door was firm enough to stop the wolf. However, they couldn’t just stay there. For the wolf was under the protection of the law, they couldn’t kill it. So Becky threw some meat out of the window and Paul pressed the button of the horn to make an alert. Finally, the wolf left and disappeared.

One possible version：Version 1:

Paragraph 1:

The car abruptly stopped in front of him. Out of the car came Paul and Becky. They immediately stopped the wolf in front of themselves to protect Mac. One man took out a metal bar from the car at once and started a fight with the wolf, and the other man joined it in no time. The wolf jumped up, and rushed towards one of them, but was beaten back. Seeing that he couldn't win, the wolf ran away down the hill.

Paragraph 2:

A few minutes later, the other two cyclists arrived. At the sight of the scene, they were aware of what had happened. .They asked whether Mac had been injured, comforted their companion and thanked Paul and Becky. It was because of their help that a disaster was avoided. Meanwhile, they expressed their great regret for Mac. This shows how mankind cares for life, cherishes friendship, and recognizes the importance of cooperation and mutual aid.

One possible version：Version 2:

Paragraph 1:

The car abruptly stopped in front of him. Mac jumped off his bicycle and dashed for the back door of the car. It was locked. He then ran around to the passenger door, but it was locked, as well, so he began to climb through the open window. When spotting this, Paul quickly unlocked the door, and the frightened man dived in, slamming the door behind him. Paul looked out the back window and saw the wolf standing over Mac’s bike as if it were a kill. Shortly after, the animal ran off.

Paragraph 2:

A few minutes later, the other two cyclists arrived .Mac emerged from the car and hugged his friends. “I thought I was going to die,” Mac cried to them. Mac retrieved（取回） his bicycle, and the three men resumed(继续）their road trip, agreeing to keep in one another’s sight line. A few miles down the road, Mac pulled over and burst into tears. “The rest of the trip was amazing, but I had to let the former emotion out.”

【课堂练习】

（2016.10浙江卷）)One weekend in July, Jane and her husband, Tom, had driven three hours to camp overnight by a lake in the forest. Unfortunately, on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel. By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom，“ I’m going to find a better spot for us to camp” and walked away.

With no path to follow, Jane just walked on for quite a long time. After she had climbed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing but forest and, far beyond, a snow­capped mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost.

“ Tom！” she cried. “ Help！”

No reply. If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Tom. Jane kept moving, but the farther she walked, the more confused she became. As night was beginning to fall, Jane was so tired that she had to stop for the night. Lying awake in the dark, Jane wanted very much to be with Tom and her family. She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him.

Jane rose at the break of day, hungry and thirsty. She could hear water trickling(滴落) somewhere at a distance. Quickly she followed the sound to a stream. To her great joy,_ she also saw some berry bushes. She drank and ate a few berries. Never in her life had she tasted anything better. Feeling stronger now, Jane began to walk along the stream and hope it would lead her to the lake.

As she picked her way carefully along the stream, Jane heard a helicopter. Is that for me? Unfortunately, the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above. A few minutes later, another helicopter flew overhead. Jane took off her yellow blouse,_ thinking that she should go to an open area and flag them if they came back again.

But the helicopter didn’t come back again, and the day became darker. Immediately, an absolute darkness ruled the forest. Jane, exhausted and scared, lay down near a stone, missing her family at a distance. All the fantastic memory crowded in and she couldn’t help crying, “Hadn’t I quarreled with Tom, walked away and climbed to the high place, I wouldn’t be trapped in this awful place, confronted with the danger of dying.” She regretted with endless anxiety, and then became asleep with shining tears in her eyes.

Paragraph 2：

Jane woke up at the daybreak. It was daybreak when Jane woke up. Weak as she was, she struggled to her feet, continuing searching for assistance. To her great joy, a helicopter was flying overhead again and again. Eager and excited, she flagged her yellow blouse and spared no effort to yell so as to attract others’ attention. Fortunately, she was eventually noticed and brought into the helicopter. There, she saw her husband, a man staring at her, wearing an expression of relief. As tightly as possible, she hugged him and was too thrilled to say anything. Besides, they agreed never to quarrel again, determining to live the life to the fullest.

【课后练习】

1 (2018浙江镇海中学领航模拟)

Everyone likes the beautiful Cinderella, but I like the ugly stepsister. The sidewalk was filled with shoppers as my mother and I hurried to the department store. I raised my neck for a look at the holiday window display, but at the age of six I was too small to see around the grown-ups with their winter coats and packages. When at last we reached the store, I stood with my eyes widened. “Look, Mother,” I shouted, pressing my hands against the glass, “Cinderella.” Before my eyes was the most beautiful doll I had ever seen! She wore a fairy princess suit made of shining red silk. I knew if I lifted her skirt I would find her crystal(水晶)shoes. The tiny tiara(冠状头饰)fastened to her silky golden hair shone.

“If only she were mine,” I dreamed. “We'd have tea parties, share secrets and dance with a handsome prince.” But to my disappointment, my mother guided me away from the window, explaining that she and my father could not afford such an expensive doll. “But there will be a very special gift under the tree for you on Christmas morning, Madge,” she said. “I promise.” Later that week I leaned against Mother's sewing machine, watching the needle flash up and down. “Bet you don't know what this is!” she joked, holding up the cloth for me to see.

“My Christmas doll!” I yelled. It was still in the early stages but I could make out the head, neck and body. “So much to my surprise!” Mother laughed as I danced around the room, already pretending Cinderella and I were at the ball. It wouldn't be long now.

My excitement grew with each passing day. Mother continued to work on the doll, and whenever I walked into the room she would hide it under a pillow. I could tell by her smile she was pleased with her progress. On Christmas morning I jumped out of bed, ran down the hall and quickly arrived at the living room where the Christmas tree was placed.

Paragraph 1:

There, underneath the tree, was a beautifully packed gift box.

But I could see Mother watching me, with an eager look on her face.

One possible version:

Paragraph 1：

There, underneath the tree, was a beautifully packed gift box. Inside it was the “doll”I expected. I opened it, holding my breath. However, to my disappointment, it was totally different from the one we saw at the store. She had a simple face, and wore a plain skirt. Her black woolen hair was pulled back in a tight tie, with no shiny tiara at all. She was nothing like Cinderella; she looked more like the ugly stepsister.

Paragraph 2：

But I could see Mother watching me, with an eager look on her face. I knew that Mother worked hard on my Christmas doll and she would be sad if I didn't like it. Trying to hide my disappointment, I rushed across the room, yelling, “I love her! I love her!” Then I buried my face in the doll's skirt. I stood there for a long moment and heard my mother sigh with relief. For the rest of the day, I made myself carry that homely doll everywhere. I even “fed” her with part of my Christmas dinner. Mother told me at one point that she was so glad I liked her!

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。

Last Sunday afternoon, Sandra and I were eager to meet up with a man on Detroit’s east side to help him get ready for a job interview this week. But on the way, we spotted a dog lying near the road next to his owner. We thought he’d been hit by a car. My friend, Sandra Abrahamian, and I had assisted animal rescue groups before and we thought there might be something we could do, so we quickly pulled over to help.

His owner, a woman told us the dog’s name is Bosco, and she was walking him over a mile in the heat to her new home. She said Bosco was an outside dog and no one would give him a ride to her new place. That’s when she and a friend decided to walk the entire way. He was going from a life on a chain in one backyard to another. She said Bosco was having trouble breathing along the way, but they thought he could make it. But just a block away from their destination, Bosco fell down. We could tell he was suffering from heatstroke (中暑). She told us he had thrown up and could no longer stand. Bosco was out of breath quickly; his drool(口水) was also thick. Bosco’s owner said she wanted to give him away because she didn’t have time for him. She said he would never be allowed into her new "home" because her children have allergies(过敏症) and she worried he would dirty the carpet.

I made a call to Kristina Rinaldi of Detroit Dog Rescue to ask if they could help Bosco because it was clear that he was going to die without emergency care. To our happiness, Rinaldi said they could help. At once she told the people at Oakland Veterinary Referral Services that a dog which needed critical care was being rushed in and they must be ready to try their best to save him.

Paragraph 1：

Sandra drove while I stayed in the back seat trying to comfort Bosco. I thought we lost him a couple of times when he was seemingly out of breath and his eyes seemed to close. By the time we arrived, Bosco was wheeled into the animal care center to receive emergency care. Bosco was put on oxygen and was taken good care of by staff there and we waited anxiously for the dog to get out of danger. Rinaldi said another dog in Detroit Dog Rescue had already been named Bosco, and she wanted this new member to have a new name for his new life.

Paragraph 2：

So Bosco is now being called Roscoe, whose critical care and recovery were estimated to be several thousand dollars. It would be difficult for Roscoe’s new home to cover the costs as a non-profit organization. Thankfully, many people who knew Roscoe’s story on Detroit Dog Rescue’s Facebook page donated money to his care. With the help of supporters, Detroit Dog Rescue managed to make it. Once Roscoe was in a stable state, Sandra and I returned to our original mission, knowing we had already been given the chance to help one desperate soul.

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。

When I saw her tonight she smiled and recognized me. I smiled back at her. She was looking more relaxed even though she was still busy doing her job. I have noticed her several times this last few months and she always looks so much happier now. Tonight when I talked with her I noticed her name tag. Her name is Pamela.

Pamela works at the express checkouts in a busy supermarket. She deals with problems when the self-service checkout experiences a problem (no price on product, machine problems, etc.). She monitors these checkouts and usually has hardly dealt with one complaint before another is created.

When I first talked to Pamela, I had called her to the checkout I was using. There wasn’t any problem with the checkout though. My problem or should I say concern was about Pamela. She looked tired and was under a lot of stress as she quickly moved from one checkout to the next. It’s a bit of a fire-fighting job.

I told Pamela that she needed to slow down. I told her she wasn’t getting paid enough to be working as hard as she was working. I told her that we, the customers, could wait and it was very bad for her health to be putting herself under such pressure. I told her that our expectations were not as hard as the ones she set for herself. Pamela told me she would slow down. I could tell she was touched that not only did I notice her stress but I chose to talk to her about it and was concerned for her health. I gently told her things had to change. I told her I would be looking out for her in future to see if she had taken my advice on board. She smiled and said, "I promise that I will next time."

Paragraph 1：

When I saw her she was still doing her job but there was such a difference. I praised the new her. Now Pamela said that other customers would have to wait for their turn while she dealt with another customer. She told me the change had significantly improved her health. She added that she’s also shared what I said with her colleagues. As I walked away from Pamela my heart was lightened. She has taken my advice on board and tried to slow down her working pace. A day’s work means just that. It doesn’t mean that one should put two days’ work into one day.

Paragraph 2：

I am proud of myself. Not only have I caused Pamela to reflect on the pressure she was putting herself under, but also she in turn has encouraged her colleagues in the supermarket to do the same. I really feel very happy and satisfied for my concern and act of kindness do make a difference to those in need. It’s just a simple act of love that costs no money. So my friends, our kindness doesn’t have to be material, but just loving. Bless you all for all you do for others.

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。

It’s not easy to die when you are only fifteen. Those were the words that began the story I heard from Robert White, a North Carolina factory worker. He and his wife were visiting their daughter Lee in the hospital as they did every evening.

She knew she had an illness that would not spare her. She suffered a lot but never complained. She had already accepted her great journey into the unknown. This particular evening, she suddenly said, "I always dreamed of working in a big ocean park with dolphins. I’ve loved them since I was little. I still dream of swimming with them, free and happy in the open sea."

She’d never asked for anything, but she said with all the strength she had, "Daddy, I want to swim in the open sea among the dolphins just once. Maybe then I wouldn’t be so scared of dying." It seemed like an impossible dream, but she hung on to it.

Robert and his family talked it over and decided to do everything they could. They phoned a research center in the Florida Keys. "Come at once," they said.

When they arrived in Grassy Key, Lee didn’t want to rest for a minute and begged her parents to take her to the dolphins. Robert took her out toward the dolphins, Nat and Tursi, who were playing about thirty feet away from them. At first they seemed distracted and uninterested, but when Lee called them softly by name, they responded without hesitation. Nat came over first, raised his head and gave her a kiss on the end of her nose. Then Tursi came over happily. A second later they picked her up with their mighty fins (鳍) and carried her out to sea with them. "It feels like I’m flying!" cried Lee, laughing with delight.

Lee’s family hadn’t heard her laugh like that since she became ill. The dolphins stayed with Lee for more than an hour, always tender, always attentive, and always responsive to her wishes.

Paragraph 1：

Maybe it’s true that they are more intelligent and sensitive creatures than man. Those amazing dolphins understood that Lee was dying and wanted to comfort her as she faced her great journey into the unknown. From the moment when the dolphins approached her, greeting her with a kiss, they never left her alone for a second. They swam with her and played with her. In their company, Lee found again the enthusiasm and the will to live. When she got out of the water, it was as if she had been reborn.

Paragraph 2：

The next day she was too weak to get out of bed, but she whispered to her father. "Daddy, don’t be sad for me. I will never be afraid again. It is not easy to face death alone when I am only fifteen, but the dolphins have made me understand that I have nothing to be scared of." She had no strength to talk more. Just before dawn, Robert’s little girl died in his arms, leaving great sorrow for her family.

It was 8 a.m. Kathy, a 25­year­old nurse, had just finished a 12­hour night shifts at a hospital. She was tired, but glad to be sailing along highway to where she lived. Although the local government had posted a snow alert(预警), the calm grey sky convinced Kathy the drive would be safe. “I figured I’d be in bed in an hour，” she says.

Snow began when she was halfway home. Listening to the radio, Kathy learned the highway was closed because a tractor had slid off the road. She texted some friends and her mom, and tried not to sleep as she waited．

After a couple of hours, however, conditions worsened. Strong winds began rocking Kathy’s car. She couldn’t see anything outside, and snow was drifting up her doors. It was, she says, “a total whiteout and rows of cars and trucks.”

Late in the afternoon a police officer came and asked if she was in any difficulty. She said she was fine. She asked the police officer if there was any way to get past the trucks. “No, ma’am，” he answered. “You’re not going anywhere.”

Once as it got dark, Kathy began to worry. She texted his brother Cris, telling him to drive snowmobiling buddy(雪地汽车) to get to the highway and find her.

As Cris rode slowly alongside the rows of cars and trucks, people would roll down their windows and ask for help. “I was the first person they’d seen in six hours.” He explained he was picking up his sister. He told them, “Nobody’s coming and I can’t take you.”

Near 10 p.m. Cris reached Kathy. He directed Kathy to pull her car onto the shoulder and asked her to get into his snowmobiling buddy.

As they headed for home, the fun started. About five kilometres into the journey, Cris made a mistake. What he thought was a shallow ditch(浅沟) turned out to be a deep trough(水槽). Instead of coming out the other side, they just kept going down. They were trapped. And feathery snow was over their heads.
