高考续写原题目:
I was invited to a cookout on an old friend's farm in western
Washington.I parked my car outside the farm and walked past a milking
house which had apparently not been used in many years.A noise at a
window caught my attention,so I entered it.it was a hummingbird
鸟),desperately trying to escape.She was covered in spider-webs(蛛网)
and was barely able to move her wings.She ceased her struggle the
instant I picked her up.
With the bird in my cupped hand,I looked around to see how she had
gotten in.The broken window glass was the likely answer.I stuffed a
piece of cloth into the hole and took her outside,closing the door securely
behind me.
When I opened my hand,the bird did not fly away;she sat looking at
me with her bright eyes.I removed the sticky spider-webs that covered
her head and wings.Still,she made no attempt to fly.Perhaps she had
been struggling against the window too long and was too tired?Or too
thirsty?
As I carried her up the blackberry-lined path toward my car where I
kept a water bottle,she began to move.I stopped,and she soon took wing
but did not immediately fly away.Hovering(悬停),she approached
within six inches of my face.For a very long moment,this tiny creature
looked into my eyes,turning her head from side to side.Then she flew
quickly out of sight.
During the cookout,I told my host the hummingbird incident.They
promised to fix the window.As I was departing,my friends walked me to
my car.I was standing by the car when a hummingbird flew to the center
of our group and began hovering.She turned from person to person until
she came to me.She again looked directly into my eyes,then let out a
squeaking call and was gone.For a moment,all were speechless.Then
someone said,"She must have come to say good-bye."
我被邀请去老朋友的农场上野炊,停车后经过一个长时间未使用
的挤奶间,一阵噪音吸引了我的注意力,走近一看是一只蜂鸟被蜘蛛
网困住了不得动弹,我一把她放出来,她就放弃挣扎了。我把她捧在
手中,好奇她是怎么进去的,旁边破碎的玻璃应该是她进去的地方,
所以我塞了一小块布,然后关上门走了。当我打开双手,她就坐在我
手掌心中看着我。
我把她身上黏糊糊的残留的蜘蛛网扯掉,但她还是不愿意飞走,
大概是刚刚挣扎的累了或者渴了。所以我沿着两边种植了黑莓的小路
走回我的车里拿水给她喝。渐渐地她开
