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。 Catherine had stayed at home all her life to look after her three children, but now, she, who lost her husband in a car accident, had to step out and earn money to make ends meet. With zero work experience and no professional degree, her chances of getting hired for a well-paid job were next to zero. One day, after dropping her children at school, Catherine spotted a construction site. “I think I can work here,” she thought and approached the manager. “Hi, are you hiring?” she asked. “Yes, we are,” the manager looked at Catherine from head to toe. “Are you sure you can work here? This job requires a lot of hard work.” “I’m ready for it,” she told the manager and signed a contract to work a 12-hour shift. However, Catherine kept her new job a secret from her children. She thought they would feel embarrassed after learning their mother worked at a construction site. Every morning, after dropping her children to school, she would go to the construction site and work until her shift ended. She would pick up heavy bricks on her shoulder to transport them from one part of the site to the other. One evening, Catherine’s son, Peter, told her about an upcoming contest in school that required mothers to participate. In the competition, students will wear blindfolds and have to recognize their mothers without looking at them. “That sounds like such a cool event, Peter!” Catherine said excitedly. “I can’t wait for it!” “I won’t go there with you, mom,” Peter replied. “But why?” What her son said next was something Catherine wasn’t prepared to hear. “Mom, I would have to touch your hands to recognize you, and everyone would look at them,” Peter explained. “Your hands are so ugly. They’re so hard and rough,” he added. “I will feel so embarrassed when my classmates look at your hands,” the boy said. “I won’t attend the event.” Catherine felt terrible but couldn’t say anything in her defense. 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。 Paragraph 1: A few weeks later, Peter was walking home when something unexpected caught his attention. _________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2: On his way back home, he kept thinking about how he would apologize to his mother. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 文章大意： 这篇文章讲述了凯瑟琳这位母亲在丈夫车祸去世后，为了维持生计，不得不走出家门找工作的故事。尽管她没有任何工作经验和专业学位，但她在一次偶然的机会中发现了建筑工地的工作机会，并勇敢地应聘成功。为了不让自己的孩子感到尴尬，她隐瞒了自己的工作。然而，当儿子彼得因为学校即将举行的一个母亲参与的比赛而无意中表达了对她粗糙双手的不满时，凯瑟琳感到非常难过。几周后，彼得意外地在回家的路上看到了母亲在工地上辛勤工作的场景，这让他意识到了母亲的牺牲和坚强。他决定向母亲道歉，并表达了对她的敬佩。最终，凯瑟琳的双手，曾经是尴尬的象征，现在成为了家庭骄傲和团结的标志。 在原文中，有几处伏笔为续写提供了线索： 凯瑟琳的双手：原文中提到彼得觉得母亲的手“丑陋”，因为它们“硬而粗糙”。这是一处伏笔，预示着这双手将成为故事发展的关键点。 彼得的学校比赛：彼得提到的学校比赛，要求学生通过触摸来识别自己的母亲，这为续写中彼得对母亲手的认识提供了一个场景。 凯瑟琳的隐瞒：凯瑟琳隐瞒了自己的工作，这为续写中可能发生的揭露或秘密保持提供了悬念。 在续写中，这些伏笔得到了回应： 手套的出现：续写中提到凯瑟琳的手上戴着手套，这是对她粗糙双手的直接回应，同时也表明了她得到了同事和管理层的认可。 彼得的内疚和认识：彼得在看到母亲工作的场景后，感到内疚并重新评价了母亲的双手，这是对彼得之前态度的转变和成长。 家庭的团结和支持：续写中彼得向母亲道歉，并表达了对她的敬佩和支持，这回应了凯瑟琳隐瞒工作的初衷，即保护家庭的尊严和团结。 续写要点可以概括为以下两段： 第一段要点： · 彼得意外地目睹了母亲在建筑工地上的辛勤工作，这一场景触发了他对母亲双手的新看法。 · 彼得意识到母亲手上的粗糙和硬茧是她辛勤工作和对家庭负责的标志。 · 彼得感到内疚，因为他之前对母亲手的负面评价，决定向母亲道歉并表达他的敬佩。 第二段要点： · 彼得决定在学校的比赛活动中支持母亲，这表明他对母亲工作的认识和态度有了积极的转变。 · 彼得向母亲表达他的支持和爱，这加深了他们之间的情感联系，并强化了家庭的团结。 · 凯瑟琳的双手，原本是尴尬的来源，现在成为了家庭骄傲的象征，代表了她的努力和牺牲。 【参考范文】 Paragraph 1: A few weeks later, Peter was walking home when something unexpected caught his attention. On a construction site, a familiar short thin female figure was busy carrying heavy bricks among a group of men. She used her hands to pick up bricks one by one and arrange them in a pile so that she could move them. Sweat poured down her face, but she had no time to wipe it off. Peter’s eyes got wet. That’s her mother, who he thought would make him embarrassed in front of others. Seeing the surprising scene, he had mixed feelings and ran off. Paragraph 2: On his way back home, he kept thinking about how he would apologize to his mother. He came into the kitchen, where Catherine was preparing dinner, words failing him. Catherine noticed him stand still and then asked curiously, “What’s the matter, Peter?” With a deep breath, Peter said, “I’m sorry, Mom. You have always been looking after us while I have made you sad.” Catherine smiled, and now she knew that Peter had already found her secret, saying, “That’s OK, son. But I really hope you will participate in that contest.” “Of course, I want to let everyone watch my mom’s hands. I really feel proud of it!” Peter said firmly. 下水文1 Paragraph 1: A few weeks later, Peter was walking home when something unexpected caught his attention. He saw his mother, Catherine, at the construction site, lifting heavy bricks and working alongside the other workers. Her hands were indeed rough and calloused, but there was a strength and determination in her movements that he had never seen before. Peter stood there, watching his mother work, realizing for the first time the sacrifices she had made for their family. He felt a surge of guilt and admiration for her resilience and courage. Paragraph 2: On his way back home, he kept thinking about how he would apologize to his mother. He knew he had hurt her feelings with his words, but he also understood now that her hands were a testament to her hard work and love for their family. That night, after dinner, Peter approached Catherine, took her hands in his, and said, "Mom, I'm sorry for what I said about your hands. I was wrong. They're not ugly; they're the hands of a strong and amazing mother. I'm proud of you and I want to be there for you, just as you've always been there for me." Catherine, moved by her son's words, hugged him tightly, tears of joy in her eyes. She knew that despite the hardships, her family's love and support were the most valuable treasures she had. 下水文2 Paragraph 1: A few weeks later, Peter was walking home when something unexpected caught his attention. He noticed his mother's hands, now adorned with a pair of gloves, as she continued her work at the construction site. The gloves were a gift from the manager, recognizing her dedication and hard work. Peter felt a pang of emotion as he realized the gloves symbolized the respect and appreciation his mother had earned from her colleagues. It was a stark contrast to his earlier judgment, and he was filled with a newfound respect for his mother's tenacity. Paragraph 2: On his way back home, he kept thinking about how he would apologize to his mother. Peter decided that he would express his admiration for her strength and apologize for his insensitive words. That evening, as they sat together, he took his mother's hands in his and said, "Mom, I've been thinking a lot about what I said, and I want to tell you how sorry I am. Your hands are not ugly; they're the hands of someone who works hard every day to provide for us. I admire you for your strength and your courage. I want to be there for you, to support you in whatever you do." Catherine's eyes welled up with tears, and she hugged her son, feeling a deep sense of love and connection. Her hands, once a source of embarrassment, now became a symbol of pride and unity for their family. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
