2023届江苏省部分市高三英语二模试题分类汇编 读后续写 2023届江苏省苏北七市高三二模英语试题 第二节(满分25分) 47．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 had stopped at the Swindon services (服务区) while on my way back to London. As I drove up the slip road, I spotted a man with a backpack and his thumb (拇指) out. I pulled over and lowered the window. “Which way are you heading?” I asked. “I’m going back to London. ” “Ah, that would be grand,”     came his immediate reply. He opened the door and lifted his backpack on to the back seat. “I’m Brendan,” he said with an easy smile and a rich Irish (爱尔兰) tongue. “I was getting a bit desperate. I’ve had my thumb out for a day and half. Nobody seems to stop these days. ” “I haven’t eaten in days,” said Brendan. “I’m trying to get home. ” I’ve always enjoyed picking up hitchhikers. I used to be a motoring journalist and crossed the country in various test cars. Picking up a hiker always made me feel a little less guilty about all the miles I was doing. As we headed east along the motorway, Brendan told me how he came to be waiting for a lift on that particular evening, and also about the two recent family tragedies (悲剧) that had ruined him and pushed him out of his old life and on to the road. Brendan told me that he was 52. He laughed a lot and enjoyed his off-grid (不入网的) lifestyle. Until last week, that is, when he’d been mugged (抢劫). “Three young men in Birmingham took my other pack and it had all my money in it. I’ve been sleeping out since then. I haven’t eaten in days. I’m hoping to get some casual work in London, so I can then get myself home to Ireland. ” It must have been the concept of home that got me, and helping a man who’d clearly had a tough time seemed like the right thing to do. 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。 As we were approaching the Heathrow turn-off (希思罗机场岔道), I had an idea. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
