高二英语读后续写基础技巧与整体演练
技巧02 考场应对“两个策略”
策略一:理清写作线索与思路
在高中英语读后续写课中,老师的教学往往围绕一篇记 叙文的文本分析展开。老师们会引导学生梳理记叙文 5W1H 基本六要素,并引导学生根据人物的语言、动作等展开详细 的人物性格分析等。而在考试实战中,大部分考生在完成阅读、完形、语填等共7个语篇的相关答题以及应用文写作任 务后,往往要在半小时甚至20分钟内完成读后续写的大作文 写作任务。在有限的时间内,基础薄弱的考生基本不可能完成课上老师所要求的详细文本分析,而是要在最短的时间内找到写作线索,理清思路,落笔成文。读后续写写作任务遵循正确价值观导向,与 应用文相比,开放性更小,可预测性更大。考生在熟知其命 题规律后,可有的放矢地进行写作训练,在考场最短的时间 内取得最好的成绩。
一、寻找 2W1H ,回扣核心信息
在对记叙文进行线索整理时,老师们会要求学生找出 who,what,when,where,why,how 5W1H 的六要素。而在考 场时间紧张的情况下,考生可以暂时忽略 when,where,why 这三个要素,而是迅速在原文中把最关键的 2W1H ,即 who,what,how核心三要素找出来。以2023 年全国卷读后续写为例,考生只需在原文中找出who (老师和我) ,what (老师鼓 励我参加写作比赛,我决定一试) ,how ( 我努力打磨自己的 参赛作品,真正享受到了写作的快乐) 这三要素就足以支撑 两段续写。续写的第一句为“A few weeks later,when I almost forgot the contest,there came the news.” (几周后,当我快把这 个比赛忘了时,传来了消息) 。结合上文的 what,how 信息,这个消息应是 “我的作品获奖了、我听到消息的反应 ”等 而结合 what,who的要 素,对第二段段首句 “I went to my teacher office after the award presentation”的续写则应为我告 知老师好消息,老师对我的赞赏鼓励,我最终的感悟等等。
二、圈画段首关键词,反向寻找新信息
在考场上很多考生在时间紧张的情况下,会急于动笔写作,忽略续写和段首句信息之间的衔接,导致续写方向错误 等问题。因此,考生要养成圈画段首句中关键信息,尤其是 前文未出现的新信息的习惯。以2021年8省联考读后续写为例,故事中 “我” 的车在路上坏了,一个墨西哥家庭 ( 爸爸,妈妈,女儿) 碰巧经过,爸爸帮我修好了车。续写的第 一段段首句是 “我正要和他们告别时,女孩问我是否吃了午餐。” (When I was about to say goodbye,the girl asked if I'd had lunch.) ,第二段段首句为 “当他们离开后,我进入我的车,打开了纸袋。” (After they left,I got into my Jeep and opened the paper bag.) 这两句话中出现的新信息是 “lunch” 和 “paper bag”,考生应把这两个关键词迅速圈画出来,并到原文中寻 找相关信息。根据 lunch和paper bag,结合原文作者一直忙于修车,还未吃午饭的信息,以及这家人乐于助人的性格,很容易能推断出续写内容为“女孩主动给我提供食物,并用纸 袋装给我 ”等相关内容。
三、确定故事冲突,思考解决方法
从近年高考读后续写真题来看,题目所给原文会对某冲 突做足背景信息铺垫, 以在续写第一段产生冲突。 因此,第一段续写方向一般较为确定,往往是续写主人公如何面对和 处理冲突,如他的心理斗争、解决过程等。这里的冲突可能 是亟待解决的问题,如2021年全国卷中双胞胎给妈妈做早餐的失败; 也有可能是主人公与自我产生的冲突,如2022全国 卷中 David被教练劝退弃赛,沮丧、难过等。因此,在写第一段内容时,考生应多积累一些遇到困难时的心理描写和愿 意面对困难、态度积极的表达,如 “汤姆不知道自己能做什 么,但他下定决心要尽力尝试 ” ( Tom didn’t know what he could do,but he made up his mind to try his best.) 或 “汤姆紧 张又不确定,他知道这很难,但他没有放弃。” ( Nervous and unsure,Tom knew it was very hard,but he didn’t give up.) 等常用且不会出错的表达。结合 “负面→ 正面 ” 的心理变化或故 事发展方向,考生可以再结合具体的问题来续写一些相应的 解决办法。
四、积累情绪表达,提炼感悟哲理
高考读后续写的故事情节发展与欧亨利小说中的一波三折不同,往往遵循 “背景→冲突→ 圆满 ” 的闭环规律,再结合 “立德树人” 的核心价值,续写结尾一般是较为圆满的 happy ending 。因此考生在续写第二段时要有意识积累一些解 决问题后的积极情绪表达,如 “汤姆十分兴奋,笑得合不拢 嘴” (Tom was so excited and happy that he grinned from ear to ear.) ,或者是 “汤姆紧紧拥抱某人,眼里满含热泪 ” ( Tom hugged sb.tightly with tears in his eyes.) 等表达。在写作收尾时,考生一般需要描写从该事件中得到的收获等,而每个故 事传达的哲理也会有差别,因此对于基础薄弱的考生来说,可以使用一些放之四海而皆准的表达,如 “汤姆从这次经历中学到了很多。”( Tom had learned so much from this
experience.) 或者 “汤姆感到轻松快乐,这是他这辈子最难 忘的一天。” ( Tom felt quite relieved and happy,thinking that this was the most unforgettable day he had ever had.) 等等,这 些普适性强的表达可以有效让考生回避主题升华不准确、跑题等问题。
策略二:精准构建与展现故事情节
合理有效的情节设置是考生输出高质量续写的保证。当然,读后续写教学涉及的内容范围广,它的成功不可能一蹴而就。教师只有勤于实践、加强积累、提升自身的读写能力,才能有效引导学生开展读后续写,使学生写出合理的续写情节。一篇优秀的读后续写应该是 内容丰富充实、与所给短文融洽连贯。所接续写情节与原文在体裁、话题、思维和用语上保持风格与逻辑上的统一。写作实践中,学生可遵循如下步骤来指完成高质量的续写。
(一)细读文本,厘清脉络
1. 细读标题
在续写之前,我们要重视文章的标题,因为标题是文章整体内容的集中体现,往往能够透露一定的信息。如2021年高考I卷的读后续写的标题是“A MOTHER’S DAY SURPRISE”。该标题给读者传递了以下信息:
(1)事件发生的时间:母亲节那天
(2)主要人物:母亲
(3)具体事件:母亲得到一个惊喜
2. 梳理要素
续写的文章多以故事类的记叙文为主。因此 , 我们要以厘清它的六要素来梳理故事的脉络,这有 助于学生掌握故事的基本事实,为后续构建情节做铺垫。理解文本的表层信息有助于学生获取深层信息。如 2021年高考I卷的读后续写的六要素分别是时间为“母亲节早上 6 点”;地点为“厨房”;人物有“Jenna、Jeff 和父母”;起因是“双胞胎 想给母亲炮制生日惊喜”;经过是“尝试烹饪失败”;结果是“在父亲的帮助下成功了”。
3. 整体感知
整体感知主要感知故事中的人物情感、语言特征和续写主题等。人物性格是情节发展的内在依据。故事的发展与主人公的情感起伏是息息相关的。他们之间互为表里且存在着很强的逻辑关系。因此,洞悉主角有助于考生在续写部分延续原文的人物设 定,从而更好地贴合主题,使情节更具连贯性和可 信度。如在2021年高考 I卷的读后续写所给材料中,双胞胎的体贴、积极和天真,妈妈的受人尊重和乐 于奉献,爸爸的善解人意和慈爱形象可以清晰地跃 然纸上。
为了保持语言的协同性,续写部分应判断并沿用原文的语言特点,避免因语言特点不一致而导致融洽度不高的问题。因此,考生在开始续写时,一定要好好体会原文的语言风格,使续写部分的语 言风格一脉相承。正如王初明教授所说:“内容要创造,语言要模仿,创造与模仿要紧密结合。只有 这样,我们才能进行准确而又语言丰富的续写。” 通过阅读,我们可以发现 2021年高考I卷的读后续写的语言风格是比较日常和温馨的。
语言是皮囊,情节是骨架,主题才是灵魂。主题是控制情节走向的幕后统帅。考生只有明确主 题才不至于跑题。一般读后续写传递的都是正能量, 所以考生尽量围绕“真善美”的主题去设计情节。 如虽然主人公遇险了,但一定可以安然脱困;虽然 犯错了,但一定会改正;虽然遇到了失败,但一定 可以爬起来……因此,2021 年高考I卷的读后续写也应该是一个圆满的结局,即双胞胎在爸爸的帮助下成功为妈妈做成了早餐。
(二)巧妙构思,预设情节
1. 读首句,预判故事走向
续写的段首句起承上启下的作用,提示我们 续写第一段的内容应承接上文的故事情节。续写第 一段的内容往往是事件的高潮,我们要利用续写段 首句合理推测相关人物解决问题的具体方式和实施 过程。另外,续写第一段最后一句必须能够自然地 过渡到第二段首句。而续写第二段是整个故事的结 尾部分。故事的结尾必须是续写第一段的活动所产生的正常的、合理的结果。以 2021年高考I 卷为例,根据第一段首句“当双胞胎失望地环顾四周时,他 们的父亲出现了”和第二段首句“这对双胞胎把早 餐端到楼上,叫醒了他们的母亲”可以推测,双胞 胎在父亲的指导下,完成了早餐的制作。那么,续写第一段可以讲述双胞胎是如何在父亲的指导下做好早餐的。续写第二段可以从人物的心理活动、语言和动作等方面讲述母亲的反应。
2. 找伏笔,寻求解决方案
在原文中会有一些看似无关紧要的人物或事 件作为续写时的提示或暗示,这些解决冲突的突破 点就是伏笔。伏笔是为故事的展开服务,伏笔的出现,可以帮助考生发现亟待解决的问题的方案。但是伏笔强调必须有始有终,前文的迹象提示一般最 好在后文中要有回应,即“前有伏笔,后有照应”。伏笔常零星散落在试题材料中,学生如果能成功找 出隐藏的伏笔并进行有效回应,那么这样的情节一定会很精彩。遇到多处伏笔,考生需要选择性地进 行回应。如:2021年高考I卷原文第一段中“They had watched their mother in the kitchen. There was nothing to it.Jenna and Jeff knew exactly what to do. ”暗示双胞胎 曾经 目睹母 亲烹饪,他们感觉非常自信,但事实上,他们并 没有实操经验,这就是他们在厨房中出乱子的主因。原文中的“The pair went down the stairs quietly to the kitchen. ”暗示了双胞胎想给妈 妈惊喜,所以出了问题后求助爸爸的可能性很大,这就为续写第一段中父亲的出现埋下了伏笔。原文中交代由于双胞胎缺乏经验,在尝试烹饪过程中,Jeff的手被烫伤了,厨房里一团糟。通过场景描写为续写第一段父亲帮忙埋下了伏笔,也为最后母亲看到Jeff的手而心疼做了铺垫。
3. 思情线,搭建故事框架
在获取表层和深层信息之后,在理解作者写作意图之后,在解码主题意义之后,在确定续写部分的情节线和情感线之后,教师可以引导学生思考 内容布局,为续写搭建内容、语言、情感支架,这可以为后续合理丰富情节奠定基础。以2021年高考I卷为例,故事的情节线是两个孩子在母亲节给妈妈准备惊喜早餐。情感线是蕴含在故事中的家人之间的爱或者是五育教育。根据情节线和情感线,教师可以引导学生搭建如下故事框架:
Paragraph 1
父亲要发火
父亲了解情况后,没有发火
父亲和他们一起做早餐
在父亲的帮助下,早餐顺利做好了
大家非常开心
Paragraph 2
双胞胎祝母亲节快乐
母亲非常惊喜
母亲注意到了Jeff 的手
母亲万分感动
收尾点睛
(二)丰富情节,展开续写
只有华丽辞藻没有丰满内容的续写是不成功 的。续写必须兼顾情节和语言,使两者形成合力。 考生需要结合常识和生活经验,对主人公的出场顺 序、叙述的方式和详略等进行合理布局,使其最大 限度地推动情节的发展。为了使内容更加精彩感人 又发人深省,考生可以从环境、心理、动作、语言 和情感等细节处描写,但是续写部分必须交代如下 几个部分。
1. 解决冲突
读后续写的文章属于叙事类,故事一般都是围绕conflict(冲突)和solution(问题解决) 来展开。一般冲突在所给材料中已经交代了,需要考生来提供问题解决方案。如何巧妙智慧地解决冲突是非常考验学生的思维和写作能力。以2021年高考I卷为例,冲突是The twins planned to prepare a surprise for mother but failed. 根据文章中多处伏笔, 解决方案是Father helped the twins prepare breakfast.
2. 回应伏笔
通常情况下,伏笔强调有始有终,前文的迹 象提示必在后文中要有回应,考生在续写时要遵循 “寻找伏笔—回应伏笔”的写作规则。这既可以使 情节更加连贯,也有助于找到解决冲突的突破点。以 2021年高考I卷读后续写为例,“The pan was too hot and the bread turned black within seconds. ”等可以推断出结论——The kitchen is in a mess. 父亲看到此景一定会先生气。“The twins were filled with excitement as they thought of the surprise they were planning for Mother's Day. ”表明今天是母亲节,所以提醒考生给母亲递上早餐时可以说“Happy Mother's Day!”原文细节“But Jeff's hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain. ”表 明 Jeff 的手被烫伤了。那么续写部分母亲注意到 Jeff 的手肯定会万分心疼和感动。
3. 设计结尾
结局是对一个故事的完结,也表明续写的收尾。所以,设置一个符合预期和常理的结局意义重 大。设置巧妙的结局可以起到画龙点睛的作用; 草 率的结局则难免带来狗尾续貂之感。常见的结尾方式有自然式、主题升华式和以景结情式。
(1)自然式
自然式结尾指顺着事件的发生自然而然地结束全文。例如:2021年高考I卷读后续写讲述了双胞胎给母亲做早餐庆祝母亲节,但由于他们没有做过早餐,把厨房弄得一团糟,最后在父亲的帮助下为母亲做好了早餐,所以可以将“Excited and happy,their mother ate the breakfast and thanked the twins. ”作为故事的结尾,顺理成章。
(2)主题升华式
一些有哲理的记叙文,往往可以提炼某些道理。对于此类记叙文,常用一句符合主题名言或谚语给以启示。在2021年高考I卷读后续写中,可以用“Labor is the most glorious and happiest thing in the world. ”升华爱劳动的主题,宣扬劳动教育。
(3)以景结情式
以景结情式结尾指在叙述或抒情的过程中转而写景,以景代情结束全文。在2021年高考I卷读后续写中,我们就可以采用此结尾,通过场景描写传递亲情。如“She gathered the twins into her arms, beaming with pleasure and fulfillment. ”

It was an exceptionally bright weekend morning. The sun was shining. The birds were chirping(吱喳叫). 7-year-old Chase Proust was filled with enormous joy. The reason for his excitement was a promise made by his father, Steven Proust, who had promised to take Chase and his sister, Abigail, on a much-awaited family picnic.
The Proust family had been looking forward to this special outing for a long time. It had been a while since they had last spent a day together in the great outdoors. They began their day by packing their favorite snacks, a colorful Frisbee(飞盘), and a kite with a long tail that danced in the wind. As they set out happily from their home, they were all expecting a day full of fun, laughter, and precious family moments.
Their chosen destination was a beautiful park in Jacksonville, Florida. The park was famous for its lots of green plants, bright flowers, and a ca lm lake that shined in the sunlight. They put their picnic blanket under a big oak tree that gave lots of shade, and Steven Proust quickly got lost in his favorite book. At the same time, the kids were playing close by, and their happy sounds filled the quiet area.
Their day took an unexpected yet exciting turn when Abigail, Chase’s curious and adventurous sister, spotted a brightly colored butterfly. She was curious and chose to follow the butterfly. It led them on a path away from where they were having their picnic. The butterfly flew ahead and brought them to a secret area in the park, a lovely field full of wildflowers in all sorts of colors. It looked amazing, like a hidden garden from a storybook. They discovered different types of flowers they had never seen before, watched a variety of insects going about their day, and even spotted a few rabbits hopping around. The whole situation was attractive, and a magical moment that they would remember for years to come.

In 1989, fresh from high school, I had the difficult task of choosing a career path before college started in three months. In those days in Pakistan, there were limited choices: becoming a doctor or an engineer, or entering the financial world after getting a business degree. I wasn’t interested in engineering, so that I was left with medicine or business. I couldn’t decide.
My uncle suggested that I do a work placement (实习工作) to experience it for a month in an international company followed by a month in a hospital. After that, I could make a decision. It seemed like a good idea.
I was accepted by a foreign bank in Karachi for a one⁃month placement. I got the feel of how the world of finance functioned, made new friends, and generally enjoyed the mostly easy⁃going work surroundings.
The month passed rapidly, and soon I began working at a leading hospital in Karachi. The experience couldn’t have been more different. The hospital had a stressful environment. The days started early (at 7 am, compared to 9 am at the bank), and were filled with endless duties. And the night calls! This was crazy, working all day, through the night, and again the next day.
I began thinking about my two experiences. The bank had offered a more relaxing atmosphere, better working hours and less stress. The hospital was full of excitement, but the studying and training were difficult. It seemed that the business choice was going to win out.
Near the end of my month at the hospital, I was driving home after an especially busy night. In front of me was a public bus, with college students sitting on the top. As the driver weaved through (穿梭) traffic, I could see the boys shaking from side to side.

“Do you forget to bring your homework to school?” my sixth⁃grade math teacher asked. I nodded my head and said in a low voice, “Yes, sir.” What a mistake I had made! I had completed my math homework. But before I left home and headed for school, I forgot to put it into my schoolbag.
“You will get a zero then,” my math teacher said. I was shocked. I had never received a zero in a math class before. But the school had rules, and the teacher had to let everyone follow them. I was immediately worried about my final math average, which was based on my homework and the tests. Would I get a C or even a D at the end of the term? If so, what should I do?
My next class was a PE class. As I walked down the hall with my classmates, all those feelings rushed out in hot tears. I wiped them away as quickly as I could. But when we entered the gym and sat down in our spots on the floor, it was clear to everyone around me that I had been crying.
My PE teacher, Ms. Brown, was an athletic teacher, often with a smile on her face. Her class was a good mix of calisthenics (健美操) and games that can give us all a good workout. And Ms. Brown was nice and compassionate (有同情心的). She loved her students and often came to help if the students were in trouble.
During that PE class, my mind was affected by the math homework and I was worried about my final math average. So I failed to devote my attention to Ms. Brown’s direction. And clearly, I was sad. I guessed that Ms. Brown found there was something wrong with me. When it was near the end of the PE class, she walked to me.

My mother believed in using things up. Last year, our cornfield had a bad harvest because birds feasted on the crops. It was probably then that Mom’s frugality(节俭)became even more extraordinary. She began keeping everything that seemed useless in the attic(阁楼)—worn-out clothes, old sheets, broken umbrellas, and some other old items. Mom’s favorite saying was “waste not, want not”(俭以防匮). My brother Josh and I weren’t sure what that meant until the “Affair of the Scarecrow(稻草人)”, which, as it later became known, left a lasting impression on us.
The story began with a pretty hat that Mom received as a gift to protect her from the sun. However, Josh and I could see that Mom’s frugal nature and fashion sense were in battle. Mom really didn’t want to get rid of the hat—it was new and had a lot of use left in it—but neither could she stand wearing it. She tried to take off the fancy decorations, but they were stuck on tight. She’d have to find some other solution.
Josh and I watched as Mom headed upstairs to the attic with the hat. “Waste not, want not,” she called back down. We heard boxes being moved around. Moments later, Mom leaned out, holding a flour bag full of straw, and with a mysterious smile, she placed the hat on it.
“What is that for?” I asked, confused. “A scarecrow! ” Mom exclaimed. “But not a good one yet.It needs a strong body to stand firm in the field,” she said with a frown. “And it doesn’t look scary enough,” Josh remarked. I had to admit that Josh, though younger than I was, could sometimes be more imaginative. Josh and I turned to each other, searching for a good idea. Soon enough, Josh’s eyes lit up with inspiration.

I sat in the breakfast corner with my four-year-old son, Matthew, trying to ignore the ache in my stomach. I was still recovering from a surgery. I hoped for strength and happiness. But the future seemed so hopeless.
Matthew jumped up from his spot on the kitchen floor. “Bird!” he shouted, rushing to the sliding door. Sure enough, there was a white dove seated on a rubber tree. It sat there a few moments, and then flew away. I’d never seen one in our neighborhood before.
When I dragged myself to the kitchen the next morning, the dove was back. This time it was with a mate carrying twigs (嫩枝), “Look, Matthew,” I said, pointing to the tree. “They’re going to make a nest.” The doves flew in and out of the courtyard all week, building on the top of the rubber tree. Matthew could hardly contain his excitement. Every morning, he’d run into the kitchen and take his spot by the sliding glass door, talking to the birds while they worked. As much as I was grieving (感到悲伤), I couldn’t help but look forward to the doves’ visits too. We watched their progress as if it were a real-life soap opera unfolding before us. Gradually, my pain disappeared, replaced by joy.
Then it all went wrong. The courtyard was a safe enough spot for a nest, but the rubber tree’s broad, thin leaves were far from stable. One night, a strong wind blew through, throwing the doves’ nest to the ground. I heard the twigs break apart. Nothing good ever lasts. I wouldn’t blame the doves if they never came back. But they returned. And they paid no attention to the pi le of sticks that had once been their nest. They started again from scratch, though the wind destroyed all their hard work. The next day, and the next, they renewed their efforts, as if nothing had happened.

Little Lola-Rose Raine had dreamed about being a flower girl for her older sister for months. But just two months before their big day, Lola had only hours to live. She suffered from acute liver failure (急性肝衰竭).
Full-time mum Jane recalled how Lola came down with the disease in March. Jane said, “One day, she came in to wake me up and said she didn’t feel well. I looked at her and was shocked to see that her eyes had turned slightly yellow.” She rang 111 straight away and was told to take Lola to hospital.
There, doctors found that the tests showed her liver function was not going well. Lola was kept in hospital for five days, but her condition started to worsen.
Doctors told her worried parents she had adenovirus (腺病毒) — which has symptoms (症状) similar to the common cold — but in Lola, it had led to the serious liver failure.
“The situation was worse than we could ever have imagined,” Jane said. “The doctors told us that her liver was no longer working to clear the toxins (毒素) in her body and the virus was causing her head to swell up. They told us that she didn’t have much time left. We were in complete shock. It didn’t seem real.”
Lola was put into the ICU and added to the urgent transplant (移植) list for a new liver, but Alan, Lola’s father, feared a donor wouldn’t be found in time.
Desperate to help their daughter, the couple asked doctors if they could give part of their own liver, instead of waiting for a match — and tests soon found out that Alan was a match.
Normally, it takes around six weeks for all the necessary health checks to be carried out on living donors. But Alan’s checks were rushed through in just 21 hours.

A girl went to her mother and complained that the senior high school life was so hard for her. Every day she studied very hard and often stayed up late doing homework, but the result was beyond satisfaction. She often felt lonely without anyone to talk with at school. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up.
Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the water came to the boil. She placed carrots into the first pot. Then she placed eggs into the second pot. Finally, she placed ground coffee beans into the last pot. She let them boil without saying a word.
In about twenty minutes, she turned off the burners. She took the carrots, the eggs and the coffee out with a scoop and placed each of them in a bowl. Turning to her daughter, the mother asked, “Tell me, what do you see?” “Carrots, eggs, and coffee,” the girl replied. The mother brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. The mother then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, the mother asked her to drink the coffee. The daughter smiled as she tasted it.
The daughter then asked, “What does it mean, Mom?” Her mother explained that these objects had faced the same adversity—boiling water, but they reacted differently. The carrots had been hard. However, after being subjected to the boiling water, they softened and became weak. The eggs had been weak. Their thin outer shells had protected their liquid interior(内部). But after sitting through the boiling water, their inside became hardened. The ground coffee beans were unique, however. After they were in the boiling water, they had changed the water. “Which are you?” the mother asked her daughter.

By the time 18-year-old Amy Waldroop returned to her grandmother’s tiny house, it was nearly midnight and she was exhausted. After a full day’s work at a flower shop, she had put in another six hours waiting tables before heading home. This was her typical weekends.
Pushing the key into the lock, she quietly opened the door so as not to wake her younger siblings. She stepped into the front room, and froze. The house was a mess: plates of half-eaten food were scattered in front of the TV; clothes, shoes and exercise books were everyone.
Amy’s eyes welled with tears. “This is just too much for me.” she thought. Terrible memories began to race through her mind. Two years before, her parents lost their lives in an accident, leaving Amy and her siblings for their grandma, Helen, who had spent half of her life in a wheelchair. The life burden fell on Amy’s shoulders, which was too much for a girl.
Life moved on. One day, walking across the school grounds, Amy found a table littered with university brochures. She browsed through pictures of spacious campuses and happy peers, all of it looking unachievable for her, given the current situation and financial conditions. But her teacher gave her unexpected hope, saying“ You could attend university for free. It would take a scholarship, though, and for that you’d need much better grades.”
During her final year of high school, Amy diligently attended classes, then went to work after school, returned to her grandmother’s house, cared for her sisters and brothers and went through homework till the early hours of the morning, struggling for her dream university.
One afternoon, she walked home from school, holding a sheet of paper tightly. It was a letter from the University of California, informing her that she would be offered a scholarship and was admitted to the university. It was what she’d been longing for, a place where she could study to become someone special-a nurse, perhaps, or maybe even a lawyer.

I didn’t like Del so much. He always called me the nickname “Germy”, which meant “dirty”, instead of my real name “Jamie”. Besides, he was known as a trouble-maker in school. So when the head teacher Mr. Smith asked Del to come to his office, I naturally thought that Del had done something mean to someone. Through the window, I caught sight of a smaller boy crying. Del seemed unhappy, too.
He did not return to class that day. All of us were discussing what had happened to him. What else could such an annoying boy do? “He must have hit the boy and was sent home,” I whispered to my friends. Their eyes widened. It felt good to see them so interested in what I said.
The next morning, the whole school was talking about Del being expelled(开除) for beating up a kid. I was surprised that my assumptions were passed on so quickly. So when Del walked into the classroom, all the kids were shocked. The kids next to him shift ed their desks away. “What’s your problem?” Del asked. “I don’t want you to attack me,” one kid said. Some laughed. “Yeah, I might,” said Del. I could tell he was joking, but many kids thought he admitted he did beat up someone.
During recess(课间休息), Del tried to join the kickball game. “Neither team wants you,” one of the players said. “Why?” Del asked, looking confused. “I always play with you guys.” They ignored him and went on playing. Del sat by himself while the rest of the school enjoyed their recess away from him. Del looked lonely and sad, much different from before. I started to feel sorry for him.
Later that day, I learned what really happened. The kid was Del’s little brother and he was crying because their mother fell ill and was sent to hospital. I felt even sorrier for what I said before. I started a rumor(谣言).

Bill McDonnell, who was a soldier when young, was a 92-year-old now, still healthy and strong. He loved hunting very much. On December 15, Bill decided to go hunting in Shenandoah Mountain the next day as the deer season had begun. His wife Joanna McDonnell intended to let their son Bill McDonnell Jr. accompany him, but Bill Jr. had a football game that day. Bill McDonnell said he could manage all by himself. Joanna then required Bill to be out of the woods by 2 pm and home by 3 pm, plenty of time before sunset. She added, “ Do take some necessities like a flashlight, just in case.”
The next morning, Bill woke up at four, grabbed his muzzleloader (前装枪), and steered his Jeep toward Shenandoah Mountain. At the end of the old Laurel Run logging road, he began to walk. It was about 7:30 am and 25 degrees when the sun peeked through the trees.
Not long into the hike, he came upon a path he didn't remember. Maybe this was a secret route to the king of all bucks (雄鹿). He took it. Then, around 11 am, he came into a clearing (林中空地) along a ridge line (山脊线). He had walked farther than he had expected. It seemed that his path up the mountain had meandered quite a bit. “Where am I now?” he muttered. Bill figured he could drop into the valley, hunt a bit and then go back home. But when he snaked down through the forest, he found there was no path at all. The forest was thick. It was hard to tell the direction now.
By around 2 pm, Bill stopped at somewhere in the valley, exhausted. “I’ll get it figured out,” he said to himself. He took out his phone to call his wife, but the phone had died. He dug into his pants for the GPS device he always brought in case of emergency and pushed the “on” button. Nothing. He had forgotten to charge it the night before.
“No, I’m not lost,” he told himself. His eyes caught a stand of tall trees. He remembered admiring the line of fantastic oaks and pines earlier. Reach them and the car wouldn’t be that far off. It meant he would have to cover some ground.

Paragraph 1:
Suddenly,a boy fell off the back of the bus. He hit the road with the face down and rolled over. He lay still in the middle of the road as the bus sped away. None of the cars behind stopped. Thinking that he could die in a matter of minutes, I stopped my car and carefully examined the boy. With the help of some passers⁃by, I lifted the unconscious boy into the car and raced back to the hospital. Then his family was contacted, and he was wheeled into emergency surgery. I drove home, exhausted but happy.
Paragraph 2:
The next day, when I went to the hospital to see the boy, all his family got up,with grateful smiles on their faces. What a feeling it was to help save the life of another person! I spent the rest of the day in a good mood. Driving home in the evening, I decided on my career path. Two months of placements could not do what 30 minutes’ help with an accident victim had done for me. This experience taught me that at times, the decisions are made for you—and that whatever happens is always for the best.

“Come with me!” Josh called out. The next instant, he raced upstairs with lighting speed. I hurried to follow him into the attic, where we began a thorough search. Mom was amused by our excitement when we found the broken umbrellas and use them as the backbone of the scarecrow. After that, we sorted out some old sheets and tied them on, The scarecrow now looked even scarier. We dragged our creation to the cornfield and planted it firmly in the mud, our hearts full of hope.
In the days that followed, the scarecrow stood proudly. Serving as a silent guardian, it successfully scared the birds away. Under its watchful eyes, our cornfield flourished this year. To our amazement, Mom’s useless things from the attic had come together to create something extraordinary. As we enjoyed a good harvest, her favorite saying, “waste not, want not”, echoed in our hearts.

I knew I had to do something for the poor creatures. Their adversity stirred something within me. I was going to help them instead of just watching the doves persistently build their nest. Before the time when the doves usually made their visits, I looked through the garage for an old piece of shelving. By means of a ladder, I successfully hammered the shelving into the wall next to the rubber tree. Covered with some leaves, it looked like part of the tree. Then Matthew and I stood by the door, waiting and hoping.
“The birds were back!” Matthew announced. To our delight, they seemed to approve of the new platform and began rebuilding their nest. Matthew’s eyes lit up with joy, and I felt warmth surging through my heart. As the doves persevered, so did we. Their unwavering determination had become a source of inspiration for us, reminding us that setbacks were not the end, but an opportunity for a new beginning. In their brief existence, the doves had taught us a profound lesson about resilience and hope, one that would stick in our mind for a long time to come.

At recess the next day, I saw Del sitting alone watching the kickball game. Not wanting him to feel left out, I walked over and sat down beside him. “Hey Germy,” he said. “My name is Jamie.” I replied. I wanted to apologize for starting that rumor about him, but I was too ashamed to say it out loudly. “Del, do you want to play kickball with us?” I asked instead. He looked surprised but happy at the same time. After a moment of silence, he nodded his head.
Now that Del had forgiven me, I decided to do more before the recess was over. I stood up and shouted to the other kids, “Guys, come here! Let’s play kickball together! ” Some of them hesitated, but they eventually joined us. Del was smiling again and so were we. As we played, I realized that Del wasn’t as bad as I thought he was. He was just a normal kid who wanted to have fun and be accepted by others. From then on, whenever someone tried to start a rumor about him, I would stand up for him and tell them the truth about Del. We became good friends, and I learned an important lesson about judging people based on rumors.

He was moving slower and slower, Joanna’s 3 pm deadline having passed. He knew Joanna must be worrying about him, but he had no way to contact her now. He should have listened to her, not to hunt alone. With great difficulty, he kept walking up the mountain as he remembered, in the hope of reaching his Jeep. But before he found the familiar route, the sun began to slip down below the mountain ridge behind him and then the forest turned pitch-black. Luckily, he brought a flashlight with him. He found himself a place to rest and waited for help.
It was about 9:45 pm when Bill heard the whoop-whoop-whoop of a helicopter. “They come to rescue me!” he felt excited, relieved as well. Bill got to his feet, and turned on his flashlight. He somehow managed to arrive at an open place nearby so that the trees would not block the helicopter. “Here! I’m here!” he shouted, waving his flashlight wildly to attract the helicopter. Thanks to the flashlight, the helicopter spotted him easily. It was directly above him and a strong rope dropped down. He was rescued eventually.

高二英语读后续写基础技巧与整体演练
技巧02 考场应对“两个策略”
策略一:理清写作线索与思路
在高中英语读后续写课中,老师的教学往往围绕一篇记 叙文的文本分析展开。老师们会引导学生梳理记叙文 5W1H 基本六要素,并引导学生根据人物的语言、动作等展开详细 的人物性格分析等。而在考试实战中,大部分考生在完成阅读、完形、语填等共7个语篇的相关答题以及应用文写作任 务后,往往要在半小时甚至20分钟内完成读后续写的大作文 写作任务。在有限的时间内,基础薄弱的考生基本不可能完成课上老师所要求的详细文本分析,而是要在最短的时间内找到写作线索,理清思路,落笔成文。读后续写写作任务遵循正确价值观导向,与 应用文相比,开放性更小,可预测性更大。考生在熟知其命 题规律后,可有的放矢地进行写作训练,在考场最短的时间 内取得最好的成绩。
一、寻找 2W1H ,回扣核心信息
在对记叙文进行线索整理时,老师们会要求学生找出 who,what,when,where,why,how 5W1H 的六要素。而在考 场时间紧张的情况下,考生可以暂时忽略 when,where,why 这三个要素,而是迅速在原文中把最关键的 2W1H ,即 who,what,how核心三要素找出来。以2023 年全国卷读后续写为例,考生只需在原文中找出who (老师和我) ,what (老师鼓 励我参加写作比赛,我决定一试) ,how ( 我努力打磨自己的 参赛作品,真正享受到了写作的快乐) 这三要素就足以支撑 两段续写。续写的第一句为“A few weeks later,when I almost forgot the contest,there came the news.” (几周后,当我快把这 个比赛忘了时,传来了消息) 。结合上文的 what,how 信息,这个消息应是 “我的作品获奖了、我听到消息的反应 ”等 而结合 what,who的要 素,对第二段段首句 “I went to my teacher office after the award presentation”的续写则应为我告 知老师好消息,老师对我的赞赏鼓励,我最终的感悟等等。
二、圈画段首关键词,反向寻找新信息
在考场上很多考生在时间紧张的情况下,会急于动笔写作,忽略续写和段首句信息之间的衔接,导致续写方向错误 等问题。因此,考生要养成圈画段首句中关键信息,尤其是 前文未出现的新信息的习惯。以2021年8省联考读后续写为例,故事中 “我” 的车在路上坏了,一个墨西哥家庭 ( 爸爸,妈妈,女儿) 碰巧经过,爸爸帮我修好了车。续写的第 一段段首句是 “我正要和他们告别时,女孩问我是否吃了午餐。” (When I was about to say goodbye,the girl asked if I'd had lunch.) ,第二段段首句为 “当他们离开后,我进入我的车,打开了纸袋。” (After they left,I got into my Jeep and opened the paper bag.) 这两句话中出现的新信息是 “lunch” 和 “paper bag”,考生应把这两个关键词迅速圈画出来,并到原文中寻 找相关信息。根据 lunch和paper bag,结合原文作者一直忙于修车,还未吃午饭的信息,以及这家人乐于助人的性格,很容易能推断出续写内容为“女孩主动给我提供食物,并用纸 袋装给我 ”等相关内容。
三、确定故事冲突,思考解决方法
从近年高考读后续写真题来看,题目所给原文会对某冲 突做足背景信息铺垫, 以在续写第一段产生冲突。 因此,第一段续写方向一般较为确定,往往是续写主人公如何面对和 处理冲突,如他的心理斗争、解决过程等。这里的冲突可能 是亟待解决的问题,如2021年全国卷中双胞胎给妈妈做早餐的失败; 也有可能是主人公与自我产生的冲突,如2022全国 卷中 David被教练劝退弃赛,沮丧、难过等。因此,在写第一段内容时,考生应多积累一些遇到困难时的心理描写和愿 意面对困难、态度积极的表达,如 “汤姆不知道自己能做什 么,但他下定决心要尽力尝试 ” ( Tom didn’t know what he could do,but he made up his mind to try his best.) 或 “汤姆紧 张又不确定,他知道这很难,但他没有放弃。” ( Nervous and unsure,Tom knew it was very hard,but he didn’t give up.) 等常用且不会出错的表达。结合 “负面→ 正面 ” 的心理变化或故 事发展方向,考生可以再结合具体的问题来续写一些相应的 解决办法。
四、积累情绪表达,提炼感悟哲理
高考读后续写的故事情节发展与欧亨利小说中的一波三折不同,往往遵循 “背景→冲突→ 圆满 ” 的闭环规律,再结合 “立德树人” 的核心价值,续写结尾一般是较为圆满的 happy ending 。因此考生在续写第二段时要有意识积累一些解 决问题后的积极情绪表达,如 “汤姆十分兴奋,笑得合不拢 嘴” (Tom was so excited and happy that he grinned from ear to ear.) ,或者是 “汤姆紧紧拥抱某人,眼里满含热泪 ” ( Tom hugged sb.tightly with tears in his eyes.) 等表达。在写作收尾时,考生一般需要描写从该事件中得到的收获等,而每个故 事传达的哲理也会有差别,因此对于基础薄弱的考生来说,可以使用一些放之四海而皆准的表达,如 “汤姆从这次经历中学到了很多。”( Tom had learned so much from this
experience.) 或者 “汤姆感到轻松快乐,这是他这辈子最难 忘的一天。” ( Tom felt quite relieved and happy,thinking that this was the most unforgettable day he had ever had.) 等等,这 些普适性强的表达可以有效让考生回避主题升华不准确、跑题等问题。
策略二:精准构建与展现故事情节
合理有效的情节设置是考生输出高质量续写的保证。当然,读后续写教学涉及的内容范围广,它的成功不可能一蹴而就。教师只有勤于实践、加强积累、提升自身的读写能力,才能有效引导学生开展读后续写,使学生写出合理的续写情节。一篇优秀的读后续写应该是 内容丰富充实、与所给短文融洽连贯。所接续写情节与原文在体裁、话题、思维和用语上保持风格与逻辑上的统一。写作实践中,学生可遵循如下步骤来指完成高质量的续写。
(一)细读文本,厘清脉络
1. 细读标题
在续写之前,我们要重视文章的标题,因为标题是文章整体内容的集中体现,往往能够透露一定的信息。如2021年高考I卷的读后续写的标题是“A MOTHER’S DAY SURPRISE”。该标题给读者传递了以下信息:
(1)事件发生的时间:母亲节那天
(2)主要人物:母亲
(3)具体事件:母亲得到一个惊喜
2. 梳理要素
续写的文章多以故事类的记叙文为主。因此 , 我们要以厘清它的六要素来梳理故事的脉络,这有 助于学生掌握故事的基本事实,为后续构建情节做铺垫。理解文本的表层信息有助于学生获取深层信息。如 2021年高考I卷的读后续写的六要素分别是时间为“母亲节早上 6 点”;地点为“厨房”;人物有“Jenna、Jeff 和父母”;起因是“双胞胎 想给母亲炮制生日惊喜”;经过是“尝试烹饪失败”;结果是“在父亲的帮助下成功了”。
3. 整体感知
整体感知主要感知故事中的人物情感、语言特征和续写主题等。人物性格是情节发展的内在依据。故事的发展与主人公的情感起伏是息息相关的。他们之间互为表里且存在着很强的逻辑关系。因此,洞悉主角有助于考生在续写部分延续原文的人物设 定,从而更好地贴合主题,使情节更具连贯性和可 信度。如在2021年高考 I卷的读后续写所给材料中,双胞胎的体贴、积极和天真,妈妈的受人尊重和乐 于奉献,爸爸的善解人意和慈爱形象可以清晰地跃 然纸上。
为了保持语言的协同性,续写部分应判断并沿用原文的语言特点,避免因语言特点不一致而导致融洽度不高的问题。因此,考生在开始续写时,一定要好好体会原文的语言风格,使续写部分的语 言风格一脉相承。正如王初明教授所说:“内容要创造,语言要模仿,创造与模仿要紧密结合。只有 这样,我们才能进行准确而又语言丰富的续写。” 通过阅读,我们可以发现 2021年高考I卷的读后续写的语言风格是比较日常和温馨的。
语言是皮囊,情节是骨架,主题才是灵魂。主题是控制情节走向的幕后统帅。考生只有明确主 题才不至于跑题。一般读后续写传递的都是正能量, 所以考生尽量围绕“真善美”的主题去设计情节。 如虽然主人公遇险了,但一定可以安然脱困;虽然 犯错了,但一定会改正;虽然遇到了失败,但一定 可以爬起来……因此,2021 年高考I卷的读后续写也应该是一个圆满的结局,即双胞胎在爸爸的帮助下成功为妈妈做成了早餐。
(二)巧妙构思,预设情节
1. 读首句,预判故事走向
续写的段首句起承上启下的作用,提示我们 续写第一段的内容应承接上文的故事情节。续写第 一段的内容往往是事件的高潮,我们要利用续写段 首句合理推测相关人物解决问题的具体方式和实施 过程。另外,续写第一段最后一句必须能够自然地 过渡到第二段首句。而续写第二段是整个故事的结 尾部分。故事的结尾必须是续写第一段的活动所产生的正常的、合理的结果。以 2021年高考I 卷为例,根据第一段首句“当双胞胎失望地环顾四周时,他 们的父亲出现了”和第二段首句“这对双胞胎把早 餐端到楼上,叫醒了他们的母亲”可以推测,双胞 胎在父亲的指导下,完成了早餐的制作。那么,续写第一段可以讲述双胞胎是如何在父亲的指导下做好早餐的。续写第二段可以从人物的心理活动、语言和动作等方面讲述母亲的反应。
2. 找伏笔,寻求解决方案
在原文中会有一些看似无关紧要的人物或事 件作为续写时的提示或暗示,这些解决冲突的突破 点就是伏笔。伏笔是为故事的展开服务,伏笔的出现,可以帮助考生发现亟待解决的问题的方案。但是伏笔强调必须有始有终,前文的迹象提示一般最 好在后文中要有回应,即“前有伏笔,后有照应”。伏笔常零星散落在试题材料中,学生如果能成功找 出隐藏的伏笔并进行有效回应,那么这样的情节一定会很精彩。遇到多处伏笔,考生需要选择性地进 行回应。如:2021年高考I卷原文第一段中“They had watched their mother in the kitchen. There was nothing to it.Jenna and Jeff knew exactly what to do. ”暗示双胞胎 曾经 目睹母 亲烹饪,他们感觉非常自信,但事实上,他们并 没有实操经验,这就是他们在厨房中出乱子的主因。原文中的“The pair went down the stairs quietly to the kitchen. ”暗示了双胞胎想给妈 妈惊喜,所以出了问题后求助爸爸的可能性很大,这就为续写第一段中父亲的出现埋下了伏笔。原文中交代由于双胞胎缺乏经验,在尝试烹饪过程中,Jeff的手被烫伤了,厨房里一团糟。通过场景描写为续写第一段父亲帮忙埋下了伏笔,也为最后母亲看到Jeff的手而心疼做了铺垫。
3. 思情线,搭建故事框架
在获取表层和深层信息之后,在理解作者写作意图之后,在解码主题意义之后,在确定续写部分的情节线和情感线之后,教师可以引导学生思考 内容布局,为续写搭建内容、语言、情感支架,这可以为后续合理丰富情节奠定基础。以2021年高考I卷为例,故事的情节线是两个孩子在母亲节给妈妈准备惊喜早餐。情感线是蕴含在故事中的家人之间的爱或者是五育教育。根据情节线和情感线,教师可以引导学生搭建如下故事框架:
Paragraph 1
父亲要发火
父亲了解情况后,没有发火
父亲和他们一起做早餐
在父亲的帮助下,早餐顺利做好了
大家非常开心
Paragraph 2
双胞胎祝母亲节快乐
母亲非常惊喜
母亲注意到了Jeff 的手
母亲万分感动
收尾点睛
(二)丰富情节,展开续写
只有华丽辞藻没有丰满内容的续写是不成功 的。续写必须兼顾情节和语言,使两者形成合力。 考生需要结合常识和生活经验,对主人公的出场顺 序、叙述的方式和详略等进行合理布局,使其最大 限度地推动情节的发展。为了使内容更加精彩感人 又发人深省,考生可以从环境、心理、动作、语言 和情感等细节处描写,但是续写部分必须交代如下 几个部分。
1. 解决冲突
读后续写的文章属于叙事类,故事一般都是围绕conflict(冲突)和solution(问题解决) 来展开。一般冲突在所给材料中已经交代了,需要考生来提供问题解决方案。如何巧妙智慧地解决冲突是非常考验学生的思维和写作能力。以2021年高考I卷为例,冲突是The twins planned to prepare a surprise for mother but failed. 根据文章中多处伏笔, 解决方案是Father helped the twins prepare breakfast.
2. 回应伏笔
通常情况下,伏笔强调有始有终,前文的迹 象提示必在后文中要有回应,考生在续写时要遵循 “寻找伏笔—回应伏笔”的写作规则。这既可以使 情节更加连贯,也有助于找到解决冲突的突破点。以 2021年高考I卷读后续写为例,“The pan was too hot and the bread turned black within seconds. ”等可以推断出结论——The kitchen is in a mess. 父亲看到此景一定会先生气。“The twins were filled with excitement as they thought of the surprise they were planning for Mother's Day. ”表明今天是母亲节,所以提醒考生给母亲递上早餐时可以说“Happy Mother's Day!”原文细节“But Jeff's hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain. ”表 明 Jeff 的手被烫伤了。那么续写部分母亲注意到 Jeff 的手肯定会万分心疼和感动。
3. 设计结尾
结局是对一个故事的完结,也表明续写的收尾。所以,设置一个符合预期和常理的结局意义重 大。设置巧妙的结局可以起到画龙点睛的作用; 草 率的结局则难免带来狗尾续貂之感。常见的结尾方式有自然式、主题升华式和以景结情式。
(1)自然式
自然式结尾指顺着事件的发生自然而然地结束全文。例如:2021年高考I卷读后续写讲述了双胞胎给母亲做早餐庆祝母亲节,但由于他们没有做过早餐,把厨房弄得一团糟,最后在父亲的帮助下为母亲做好了早餐,所以可以将“Excited and happy,their mother ate the breakfast and thanked the twins. ”作为故事的结尾,顺理成章。
(2)主题升华式
一些有哲理的记叙文,往往可以提炼某些道理。对于此类记叙文,常用一句符合主题名言或谚语给以启示。在2021年高考I卷读后续写中,可以用“Labor is the most glorious and happiest thing in the world. ”升华爱劳动的主题,宣扬劳动教育。
(3)以景结情式
以景结情式结尾指在叙述或抒情的过程中转而写景,以景代情结束全文。在2021年高考I卷读后续写中,我们就可以采用此结尾,通过场景描写传递亲情。如“She gathered the twins into her arms, beaming with pleasure and fulfillment. ”

It was an exceptionally bright weekend morning. The sun was shining. The birds were chirping(吱喳叫). 7-year-old Chase Proust was filled with enormous joy. The reason for his excitement was a promise made by his father, Steven Proust, who had promised to take Chase and his sister, Abigail, on a much-awaited family picnic.
The Proust family had been looking forward to this special outing for a long time. It had been a while since they had last spent a day together in the great outdoors. They began their day by packing their favorite snacks, a colorful Frisbee(飞盘), and a kite with a long tail that danced in the wind. As they set out happily from their home, they were all expecting a day full of fun, laughter, and precious family moments.
Their chosen destination was a beautiful park in Jacksonville, Florida. The park was famous for its lots of green plants, bright flowers, and a ca lm lake that shined in the sunlight. They put their picnic blanket under a big oak tree that gave lots of shade, and Steven Proust quickly got lost in his favorite book. At the same time, the kids were playing close by, and their happy sounds filled the quiet area.
Their day took an unexpected yet exciting turn when Abigail, Chase’s curious and adventurous sister, spotted a brightly colored butterfly. She was curious and chose to follow the butterfly. It led them on a path away from where they were having their picnic. The butterfly flew ahead and brought them to a secret area in the park, a lovely field full of wildflowers in all sorts of colors. It looked amazing, like a hidden garden from a storybook. They discovered different types of flowers they had never seen before, watched a variety of insects going about their day, and even spotted a few rabbits hopping around. The whole situation was attractive, and a magical moment that they would remember for years to come.

In 1989, fresh from high school, I had the difficult task of choosing a career path before college started in three months. In those days in Pakistan, there were limited choices: becoming a doctor or an engineer, or entering the financial world after getting a business degree. I wasn’t interested in engineering, so that I was left with medicine or business. I couldn’t decide.
My uncle suggested that I do a work placement (实习工作) to experience it for a month in an international company followed by a month in a hospital. After that, I could make a decision. It seemed like a good idea.
I was accepted by a foreign bank in Karachi for a one⁃month placement. I got the feel of how the world of finance functioned, made new friends, and generally enjoyed the mostly easy⁃going work surroundings.
The month passed rapidly, and soon I began working at a leading hospital in Karachi. The experience couldn’t have been more different. The hospital had a stressful environment. The days started early (at 7 am, compared to 9 am at the bank), and were filled with endless duties. And the night calls! This was crazy, working all day, through the night, and again the next day.
I began thinking about my two experiences. The bank had offered a more relaxing atmosphere, better working hours and less stress. The hospital was full of excitement, but the studying and training were difficult. It seemed that the business choice was going to win out.
Near the end of my month at the hospital, I was driving home after an especially busy night. In front of me was a public bus, with college students sitting on the top. As the driver weaved through (穿梭) traffic, I could see the boys shaking from side to side.

“Do you forget to bring your homework to school?” my sixth⁃grade math teacher asked. I nodded my head and said in a low voice, “Yes, sir.” What a mistake I had made! I had completed my math homework. But before I left home and headed for school, I forgot to put it into my schoolbag.
“You will get a zero then,” my math teacher said. I was shocked. I had never received a zero in a math class before. But the school had rules, and the teacher had to let everyone follow them. I was immediately worried about my final math average, which was based on my homework and the tests. Would I get a C or even a D at the end of the term? If so, what should I do?
My next class was a PE class. As I walked down the hall with my classmates, all those feelings rushed out in hot tears. I wiped them away as quickly as I could. But when we entered the gym and sat down in our spots on the floor, it was clear to everyone around me that I had been crying.
My PE teacher, Ms. Brown, was an athletic teacher, often with a smile on her face. Her class was a good mix of calisthenics (健美操) and games that can give us all a good workout. And Ms. Brown was nice and compassionate (有同情心的). She loved her students and often came to help if the students were in trouble.
During that PE class, my mind was affected by the math homework and I was worried about my final math average. So I failed to devote my attention to Ms. Brown’s direction. And clearly, I was sad. I guessed that Ms. Brown found there was something wrong with me. When it was near the end of the PE class, she walked to me.

My mother believed in using things up. Last year, our cornfield had a bad harvest because birds feasted on the crops. It was probably then that Mom’s frugality(节俭)became even more extraordinary. She began keeping everything that seemed useless in the attic(阁楼)—worn-out clothes, old sheets, broken umbrellas, and some other old items. Mom’s favorite saying was “waste not, want not”(俭以防匮). My brother Josh and I weren’t sure what that meant until the “Affair of the Scarecrow(稻草人)”, which, as it later became known, left a lasting impression on us.
The story began with a pretty hat that Mom received as a gift to protect her from the sun. However, Josh and I could see that Mom’s frugal nature and fashion sense were in battle. Mom really didn’t want to get rid of the hat—it was new and had a lot of use left in it—but neither could she stand wearing it. She tried to take off the fancy decorations, but they were stuck on tight. She’d have to find some other solution.
Josh and I watched as Mom headed upstairs to the attic with the hat. “Waste not, want not,” she called back down. We heard boxes being moved around. Moments later, Mom leaned out, holding a flour bag full of straw, and with a mysterious smile, she placed the hat on it.
“What is that for?” I asked, confused. “A scarecrow! ” Mom exclaimed. “But not a good one yet.It needs a strong body to stand firm in the field,” she said with a frown. “And it doesn’t look scary enough,” Josh remarked. I had to admit that Josh, though younger than I was, could sometimes be more imaginative. Josh and I turned to each other, searching for a good idea. Soon enough, Josh’s eyes lit up with inspiration.

I sat in the breakfast corner with my four-year-old son, Matthew, trying to ignore the ache in my stomach. I was still recovering from a surgery. I hoped for strength and happiness. But the future seemed so hopeless.
Matthew jumped up from his spot on the kitchen floor. “Bird!” he shouted, rushing to the sliding door. Sure enough, there was a white dove seated on a rubber tree. It sat there a few moments, and then flew away. I’d never seen one in our neighborhood before.
When I dragged myself to the kitchen the next morning, the dove was back. This time it was with a mate carrying twigs (嫩枝), “Look, Matthew,” I said, pointing to the tree. “They’re going to make a nest.” The doves flew in and out of the courtyard all week, building on the top of the rubber tree. Matthew could hardly contain his excitement. Every morning, he’d run into the kitchen and take his spot by the sliding glass door, talking to the birds while they worked. As much as I was grieving (感到悲伤), I couldn’t help but look forward to the doves’ visits too. We watched their progress as if it were a real-life soap opera unfolding before us. Gradually, my pain disappeared, replaced by joy.
Then it all went wrong. The courtyard was a safe enough spot for a nest, but the rubber tree’s broad, thin leaves were far from stable. One night, a strong wind blew through, throwing the doves’ nest to the ground. I heard the twigs break apart. Nothing good ever lasts. I wouldn’t blame the doves if they never came back. But they returned. And they paid no attention to the pi le of sticks that had once been their nest. They started again from scratch, though the wind destroyed all their hard work. The next day, and the next, they renewed their efforts, as if nothing had happened.

Little Lola-Rose Raine had dreamed about being a flower girl for her older sister for months. But just two months before their big day, Lola had only hours to live. She suffered from acute liver failure (急性肝衰竭).
Full-time mum Jane recalled how Lola came down with the disease in March. Jane said, “One day, she came in to wake me up and said she didn’t feel well. I looked at her and was shocked to see that her eyes had turned slightly yellow.” She rang 111 straight away and was told to take Lola to hospital.
There, doctors found that the tests showed her liver function was not going well. Lola was kept in hospital for five days, but her condition started to worsen.
Doctors told her worried parents she had adenovirus (腺病毒) — which has symptoms (症状) similar to the common cold — but in Lola, it had led to the serious liver failure.
“The situation was worse than we could ever have imagined,” Jane said. “The doctors told us that her liver was no longer working to clear the toxins (毒素) in her body and the virus was causing her head to swell up. They told us that she didn’t have much time left. We were in complete shock. It didn’t seem real.”
Lola was put into the ICU and added to the urgent transplant (移植) list for a new liver, but Alan, Lola’s father, feared a donor wouldn’t be found in time.
Desperate to help their daughter, the couple asked doctors if they could give part of their own liver, instead of waiting for a match — and tests soon found out that Alan was a match.
Normally, it takes around six weeks for all the necessary health checks to be carried out on living donors. But Alan’s checks were rushed through in just 21 hours.

A girl went to her mother and complained that the senior high school life was so hard for her. Every day she studied very hard and often stayed up late doing homework, but the result was beyond satisfaction. She often felt lonely without anyone to talk with at school. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up.
Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the water came to the boil. She placed carrots into the first pot. Then she placed eggs into the second pot. Finally, she placed ground coffee beans into the last pot. She let them boil without saying a word.
In about twenty minutes, she turned off the burners. She took the carrots, the eggs and the coffee out with a scoop and placed each of them in a bowl. Turning to her daughter, the mother asked, “Tell me, what do you see?” “Carrots, eggs, and coffee,” the girl replied. The mother brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. The mother then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, the mother asked her to drink the coffee. The daughter smiled as she tasted it.
The daughter then asked, “What does it mean, Mom?” Her mother explained that these objects had faced the same adversity—boiling water, but they reacted differently. The carrots had been hard. However, after being subjected to the boiling water, they softened and became weak. The eggs had been weak. Their thin outer shells had protected their liquid interior(内部). But after sitting through the boiling water, their inside became hardened. The ground coffee beans were unique, however. After they were in the boiling water, they had changed the water. “Which are you?” the mother asked her daughter.

By the time 18-year-old Amy Waldroop returned to her grandmother’s tiny house, it was nearly midnight and she was exhausted. After a full day’s work at a flower shop, she had put in another six hours waiting tables before heading home. This was her typical weekends.
Pushing the key into the lock, she quietly opened the door so as not to wake her younger siblings. She stepped into the front room, and froze. The house was a mess: plates of half-eaten food were scattered in front of the TV; clothes, shoes and exercise books were everyone.
Amy’s eyes welled with tears. “This is just too much for me.” she thought. Terrible memories began to race through her mind. Two years before, her parents lost their lives in an accident, leaving Amy and her siblings for their grandma, Helen, who had spent half of her life in a wheelchair. The life burden fell on Amy’s shoulders, which was too much for a girl.
Life moved on. One day, walking across the school grounds, Amy found a table littered with university brochures. She browsed through pictures of spacious campuses and happy peers, all of it looking unachievable for her, given the current situation and financial conditions. But her teacher gave her unexpected hope, saying“ You could attend university for free. It would take a scholarship, though, and for that you’d need much better grades.”
During her final year of high school, Amy diligently attended classes, then went to work after school, returned to her grandmother’s house, cared for her sisters and brothers and went through homework till the early hours of the morning, struggling for her dream university.
One afternoon, she walked home from school, holding a sheet of paper tightly. It was a letter from the University of California, informing her that she would be offered a scholarship and was admitted to the university. It was what she’d been longing for, a place where she could study to become someone special-a nurse, perhaps, or maybe even a lawyer.

I didn’t like Del so much. He always called me the nickname “Germy”, which meant “dirty”, instead of my real name “Jamie”. Besides, he was known as a trouble-maker in school. So when the head teacher Mr. Smith asked Del to come to his office, I naturally thought that Del had done something mean to someone. Through the window, I caught sight of a smaller boy crying. Del seemed unhappy, too.
He did not return to class that day. All of us were discussing what had happened to him. What else could such an annoying boy do? “He must have hit the boy and was sent home,” I whispered to my friends. Their eyes widened. It felt good to see them so interested in what I said.
The next morning, the whole school was talking about Del being expelled(开除) for beating up a kid. I was surprised that my assumptions were passed on so quickly. So when Del walked into the classroom, all the kids were shocked. The kids next to him shift ed their desks away. “What’s your problem?” Del asked. “I don’t want you to attack me,” one kid said. Some laughed. “Yeah, I might,” said Del. I could tell he was joking, but many kids thought he admitted he did beat up someone.
During recess(课间休息), Del tried to join the kickball game. “Neither team wants you,” one of the players said. “Why?” Del asked, looking confused. “I always play with you guys.” They ignored him and went on playing. Del sat by himself while the rest of the school enjoyed their recess away from him. Del looked lonely and sad, much different from before. I started to feel sorry for him.
Later that day, I learned what really happened. The kid was Del’s little brother and he was crying because their mother fell ill and was sent to hospital. I felt even sorrier for what I said before. I started a rumor(谣言).

Now that Del had forgiven me, I decided to do more before the recess was over.

Bill McDonnell, who was a soldier when young, was a 92-year-old now, still healthy and strong. He loved hunting very much. On December 15, Bill decided to go hunting in Shenandoah Mountain the next day as the deer season had begun. His wife Joanna McDonnell intended to let their son Bill McDonnell Jr. accompany him, but Bill Jr. had a football game that day. Bill McDonnell said he could manage all by himself. Joanna then required Bill to be out of the woods by 2 pm and home by 3 pm, plenty of time before sunset. She added, “ Do take some necessities like a flashlight, just in case.”
The next morning, Bill woke up at four, grabbed his muzzleloader (前装枪), and steered his Jeep toward Shenandoah Mountain. At the end of the old Laurel Run logging road, he began to walk. It was about 7:30 am and 25 degrees when the sun peeked through the trees.
Not long into the hike, he came upon a path he didn't remember. Maybe this was a secret route to the king of all bucks (雄鹿). He took it. Then, around 11 am, he came into a clearing (林中空地) along a ridge line (山脊线). He had walked farther than he had expected. It seemed that his path up the mountain had meandered quite a bit. “Where am I now?” he muttered. Bill figured he could drop into the valley, hunt a bit and then go back home. But when he snaked down through the forest, he found there was no path at all. The forest was thick. It was hard to tell the direction now.
By around 2 pm, Bill stopped at somewhere in the valley, exhausted. “I’ll get it figured out,” he said to himself. He took out his phone to call his wife, but the phone had died. He dug into his pants for the GPS device he always brought in case of emergency and pushed the “on” button. Nothing. He had forgotten to charge it the night before.
“No, I’m not lost,” he told himself. His eyes caught a stand of tall trees. He remembered admiring the line of fantastic oaks and pines earlier. Reach them and the car wouldn’t be that far off. It meant he would have to cover some ground.

He was moving slower and slower, Joanna‘s 3 pm deadline having passed._______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It was about 9:45 pm when Bill heard the whoop-whoop-whoop of a helicopter.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
