技巧08 起承转合关联读后续写
“起承转合” 理论模型是中国古代关于写作原理的最高成就 。“起承转合”之法最早出现于汉语诗歌的韵脚格律中,后又被运用于 “八股文”等其他文体,近代也被用于各种写作创作中 。作为写作结构章法术语, “起” 是指起始开端;“承” 是承接上文加以申述; “ 转” 是转折 ,从正面反面立论 ;“合” 是结束全文。如诗仙李白的《 静夜思》:床前明月光(起),疑是地上霜(承);举头望明月转),低头思故“ 起承转合” 理论模型是中国古代关于写作原理的最高成就。“起承转合”之法最早出现于汉语诗歌的韵脚格律中,后又被运用于 “八股文 ” 等其他文体 ,近代也被用于各种写作创作中。作为写作结构章法术语, “起” 是指起始开端;“承”是承接上文加以申述;“转”是转折,从正面反面立论;“合”是结束全文。如诗仙李白的《静夜思》:床前明月光(起),疑是地上霜(承);举头望明月(转),低头思故乡(合)。
有人认为“起承转合”是一种固化的模式,像八股文一样,禁锢了写作的思维,减弱了写作思维创造力。但实质上,“起承转合”的本质是“重复”和“对比”两种思维操作模型的有机组合运用。只要我们能真正理解其原理和实质,加以灵活运用,就能创造性地生成各种自由组合模式,如“起-承-承-合”,“起-承-承-转-合”,甚至“起-转-转-转-合”等,从而在写作思维上获得真正的自由。
因此,“起承转合”既是一种文章写作的基本规律和原理,让写作者可以直接使用或加以变化,也是一种思维方式和习惯,能够给学写文章的人提供一个从无话可说到有话可说的文本内容结构的思维操作模式。对于写不出、不会写的学生来说,“起承转合”正是一条写作入门的路径。
“起承转合”对于读后续写的指导意义在于:(1)“起承转合”提供了文章的章法。作为一种篇章结构,起承转合固定下来的模式使得文章在内容和形式上呈现出完整性,使文章条理分明,结构完整,从而帮助学生解决谋篇布局问题。(2)“起承转合”能开拓写作思路,以结构化了的章法模型来吸附和凝练学生心中已有的材料,从而生成所需要的篇章模型。这就是文章形式对文章内容的反推作用。从这个意义来说,“起承转合”不仅提供模板解决了“怎么写”的难题,还间接提示了学生“写什么”。(3)“起承转合”能使写作思维逻辑显性化。语篇逻辑的体现不仅仅在于衔接词,更重要的在于内容。句与句,段与段之间的关系,不仅仅体现层次与层次之间的相互勾连,实质上也是一种文章内容之间的深层次递进,体现了写作思维的逻辑性。“起承转合”能让写作逻辑看得见,就读后续写任务而言,“起”就是故事的开端;“承”是承接开端进一步推进故事的发展;“转”是从正面继续推进或转到反面建立故事的矛盾冲突达到故事高潮;“合”则是解决矛盾冲突以正能量结局结束全文。
“起承转合”在读后续写教学中的实践
基于以上所述,在面对读后续写新题型时,笔者尝试从“起承转合”的角度来指导学生进行写作。主要从下面三个方面开展:
(一)感受中英文“起承转合”写作章法模型
“起承转合”来自汉语,对“起承转合”的理解用母语的例子来解析最为易懂。最简单的是诗歌中的“起承转合”,如唐朝诗人孟浩然的《春晓》:春眠不觉晓(起),处处闻啼鸟(承)。夜来风雨声(转),花落知多少(合)。起为开端,承为进一步的描写,转为语境的画风突变,合为故事点题以及作者的情感落脚之处。又如李白的《朝发白帝城》:朝辞白帝彩云间(起),千里江陵一日还(承)。两岸猿声啼不住(转),轻舟已过万重山(合)。起得清新美丽欢快,承接原情调进一步展开,突转画风为愁怨凄厉,终又回到清新美丽欢快。现代文写作中,鲁迅先生对“起承转合”模式也有灵活的使用。小说《故乡》开头对故乡的描写为全文定下了荒凉萧索的基调,是为“起”;第二天回到家中对凄凉的母亲的描写,是为“承”;然后母亲提及润土带来大片美好的回忆,在情调上进行了“转”;最后见到润土和杨二嫂对其丑陋形象和扭曲灵魂的描写又回到了小说凄凉萧索的基调,是为“合”。
英语文体也有同样的模型。如下面的文章Social Practice(有删节)。
Recently,social practice has gained more and more popularity in universities and college.
There is no doubt that social practice has many advantages.To begin with,students can get a chance to contact society and meet all walks of people through social practice....Besides,by applying the knowledge that they have learned in class to practical work,students can know themselves better.Lastly,social practice can give students financial help and enable them independent of their family.
However,there is no denying that some problems may arise if no correct guidance is made.Some students may get overly interested in social practice and want to work full-time,thus neglecting their studies.And some students are likely to get in touch with the dark side of society,which will affect their future studies.
Aiming at carrying out social practice smoothly,students should first make clear its objective.Studies should always put in the first place and social practice should be treated as a useful supplement,so the students need to keep a balance between social practice and their studies.
这是一篇很典型的解释性说明文。全文结构是“总-分-分-总”,提出问题-正面分析问题-反面分析问题-提出解决办法。与汉语的“起-承-转-合”模式一致。
(二)欣赏叙事性文体中的“起承转合”
鉴于我们要解决的是读后续写的问题,读后续写属于叙事性体裁,因此,笔者特意跟学生分享了故事叙述中的“起承转合”结构。
1.从语言迁移的角度考虑,以《西游记》为例,进行故事模型的建构。《西游记》是我们大多数人最为熟悉的名著(名剧)。里面的每一个故事(剧集)基本上都按照一定的模式去开展。首先是唐僧师徒四人出发,此为“起”;然后进一步描写他们的旅途,此为“承”;接着在某种情形下必定遇上妖怪,师傅陷入危险,此为“转”;最后在自己或他神的帮助之下顺利解救师傅解决问题,此为“合”。所以,我们读后续写的每一个故事的整体谋篇布局,都可以按照《西游记》的模式去进行构思。
2.从故事本身出发,以情节推进为重点,着重细节描写。《水浒传》里有这么一个故事:三拳打死镇关西。寥寥数字已经说完了一个故事情节。这样的话,岂不是后续无话可写了?学生在写作中遇到无话可说的难题也是如此。要解此困境,关键在于细节描写。我们不妨把“三拳打死镇关西”这七字故事扩展一下,完善成以下小故事:鲁达、李忠、史进三人到潘家酒楼喝酒(起),听了金家父女对镇关西强媒硬娶,虚钱实契强占翠莲,又将她赶出,还向金家追要典身钱的血泪控诉(承),鲁达对镇关西大怒,当即赠送银两,第二天继而三拳打死郑屠,为民除害(转)。从此以后,他亡命江湖,最后被逼上梁山(合)。如此,读后续写的每一个段落中的情节片段也可以按此模式展开。
由此可见,叙事性文体中的“起承转合”实质就是故事写作的“开端-发展-高潮-结局”。
(三)实践基于“起承转合”模式的英语叙事文体语篇分析与后续写作
读后续写,顾名思义,先读后写,包括读懂原文和续写故事两个主要方面。笔者的解题步骤相应包括两个方面:用“起承转合”模型分析解读理解原文;再用“起承转合”模式完成后续故事撰写。下面以两个案例来说明:
【写作案例1】
What my father wore embarrassed me!I wanted him to dress like a doctor or lawyer,but he always dressed like my father,getting up before dawn every day to make breakfast for my mother and me.We lived in South Texas,where my father worked as a repairman.He often wore a pair of jeans and a shirt,keeping his pencils,glasses and wrenches(扳手)in his breast pocket.His boots were those with steel toes that made them difficult to pull off his feet,which I sometimes helped him with when he returned from repairing cars—his job that also shamed me.
I blamed the way he dressed.I felt that my classmates laughed at me because they'd seen him mowing lawns(修剪草坪)in cut-off jeans and black boots.My classmates' families paid men to beautify their lawns,while their fathers travelled in the bay wearing lemon-yellow sweaters and expensive shoes.
He preferred clothes that allowed him the freedom to move under cars.So even when taking part in a school trip with me,he was dressed in his repairman's suit.On the school bus to the campsite,all students on the bus happily chatted with their parents except me,who lowered the head,avoiding spotting my classmate smocking glance(讥笑的眼光)or hearing their jokes,which I thought was about nothing else but what my father wore.
I regretted telling my parents the school trip,and I was very angry why my mother had no spare time while my father happened to have a vacation.But my father failed to read my mind.He was very happy,whistling a tune along the way.
Though my father didn't sense my bad mood,the school bus seemed as sad as I was.It drove more and more slowly and finally it stopped on the roadside.The driver got out to check the bus butfound nothing wrong.Students and parents on the bus began to whisper about what was happening,worried that the delay might spoil the journey.
【写作分析】
1.“起承转合”原文解读
开端(起),是问题的提出部分:父亲是一位修理工,一身工作服的穿着让我很尴尬,我希望他穿着得体,像个医生或律师那样。
发展(承),是矛盾冲突的升级,解决办法初现的部分:有一次我们班开展郊游活动,爸爸依然穿着修理工的衣服来参加。途中汽车出故障抛锚了,司机检查不出问题所在。大家都很担心郊游会被毁了。
原文故事就到这里为止。按照叙事性文体“开端(起)-发展(承)-高潮(转)-结局(合)”的谋篇布局,接下来要学生续写的两个段落应该是故事的高潮(转)和结局(合)部分。
2.“起承转合”故事续写
按照上面的布局可知,后续的高潮(转)和结局(合)各占一段。每一段的写作又可以按照“起承转合”的模式去展开。我们可以这样写作:
续写第一段:When others were complaining ,my father stood up.(起:爸爸)At the thought that he would offer his assistance reduce people's anxiety,a great sense of delight flooded over him.He approached the driver,explaining that he was a repairman could offer to help.(承:爸爸)Seeing him crawling under the bus,I was overwhelmed by a feeling of embarrassment.Ilowered my head,trying not to spot my classmates' scornful look.(转:我)However,the following moments witnessed my father's professional skills in repair.(合:结果)
续写第一段是故事的高潮(转)部分,也就是矛盾冲突得以解决的主要阵地。根据首句的起点爸爸站起来,第二句和第三句承接前文写爸爸的情感和行为。然后转到对“我”的心理、情感和行动的描写。最后一句合是指本段解决问题的结果:爸爸把车修好了。
续写第二段:The school bus restarted and everyone cheered.(起:每个人)Everyone was impressed by my father's enthusiasm and superb skills.No sooner had my father stepped on the bus than they burst into thunderous applause.My classmates expressed gratitude to my father and said to me,“Hey,your father is so cool!”(承:每个人)Seeing their eyes twinkling with admiration,I felt extremely guilty but proud of my father,tears streaming down my cheeks.(转:我)While my father didn't dress like a doctor or a lawyer,he taught me the profound truth that what really matters is not the way we wear but the way we act.(合:升华主题)
续写第二段是故事的结局(合)部分。爸爸修好车后,根据首句起点每个人的欢呼,承接上文继续写每个人如何欢呼以及如何行动。然后转到“我”的转变描写。最后一句合是点明主旨,升华主题,以“我最后明白了,真正重要的不是一个人的外表,而是一个人的行动”来结束全文。
【案例示例2】
With the start of new school,freshmen of Hendersonville High School in Nashville were excited to meet new classmates and teachers.Among them,however,15-year-old Sergio Peralta was feeling very nervous because his right hand had never fully formed since he was born.Going to a new school and being“different”Is always scary.Sergio was particularly concerned with what his classmates would think of him.
Sergio's parents had trained him to use his left hand from a nearly age.As he grew up,he was used to not using his right hand.He could write with his left one and do some things with special tricks or techniques.Despite this,in the first days of new school,Sergio always felt like hiding his underdeveloped right hand in his sleeve as if nobody would ever find out if he did so.
It didn't take long for someone to learn Sergio's secret.Jeff Wilkins,the teacher of Sergio's engineering class,figured out that sergio was missing part of his hand and decided to do something for the new student.Jeff had been leading a robotics project in the school and expert in 3D printing technology.Besides,he hoped to take advantage of this hands-on chance to help his robotics students learn more about engineering and how building a robotic hand worked.
So in his class,Jeff announced with great enthusiasm,“You're supposed to be engineering,coming up with new ideas and solving issues.Now Sergio needs a new hand,so we'll work together to build Sergio a robotic hand.”His words fueled everyone's curiosity and creativity.
For the next four weeks,Jeff and his class including Sergio worked on the project.After some precise measurements and researches,the class put forward a design draft.Jeff made a few adjustments and gave them some practical suggestions.With access to online models and a 3D printer,they eventually created a robotic hand,which was intended to look good and work well,like catching something.
【写作分析】
1.“起承转合”原文解读
开端(起),是问题的提出部分:Sergio是一位右手有缺失的学生。由于身体的不同而非常害怕同学们对他的态度。虽然他从小被训练能用左手去做事情,但是他还是尝试去藏起他的右手。
发展(承),是矛盾冲突的升级,解决办法初现的部分:老师Jeff发现了Sergio的事情,决定和同学们一起,利用他们的专长——3D打印技术去帮助Sergio。经过四个星期的努力,他们最终造出了一个机械手臂。
原文故事就到这里为止。按照叙事性文体“开端(起)-发展(承)-高潮(转)-结局(合)”的谋篇布局,接下来要学生续写的两个段落应该是故事的高潮(转)和结局(合)部分。
2.“起承转合”故事续写
按照上面的布局可知,后续的高潮(转)和结局(合)各占一段。每一段的写作又可以按照“起承转合”的模式去展开。我们可以这样写作:
续写第一段:Then came the final testing day.(起:最后的测试日)With the mixture of anxiety and upset,Sergio couldn't wait for the exciting moment to come.The whole class gathered in the science classroom,watching breathlessly as Jeff carefully loaded their self-made robotic hand onto Sergio's right arm.It fitted quite well!(承:测试日)So excited was Sergio that his arm trembled slightly.Having put a baseball on the desk,Jeff signed to Sergio to pick it up.Slowly,Sergio extended his right hand and reached for the ball.Successfully he caught hold of it and everyone present broke into cheers!Holding the ball,Sergio couldn't containhis tears.(转:Sergio)Never in his life did he expect to catch something with his right hand!(合:成功了)
续写第一段是故事的高潮(转)部分,也就是矛盾冲突得以解决的主要阵地。根据首句的起点最终的测试日的到来,接下来三句承接前文写测试日的操作。然后转到对主人公Sergio的心理、情感和行动的描写。最后一句合是指本段解决问题的结果:Sergio终于能用右手来抓住东西了。
续写第二段:The life-changing gift for Sergio drew huge attention.(起:改变一生的礼物,巨大的关注).With the well-looked and well-working robotic hand,Sergio felt a wave of gratitude to his teacher and his classmates.He thought he would never feel nervous again on the first school day any more in his life.(承:改变一生的礼物)Jeff and his students became an instant hit and various media competed to cover the news.With a great relief and great joy,they expressed their sincere hope for Sergio.(转:Jeff和同学们,巨大的关注)Life may be full of ups and downs,but with advanced technology,there is always hope to overcome any difficulty.Never should we lose hope for life!(合:升华主题)
续写第二段是故事的结局(合)部分。测试成功后,根据首句起点改变一生的礼物,承接上文继续写这份礼物带给主人公Sergio的影响。然后转到另一个角度———引发巨大的关注和对师生的描写。最后一句合是点明主旨,升华主题,以“生活总是充满了困难,但是总有办法解决。所以,永远不要对生活失去希望”来结束全文。
由此可见,按照“起承转合”模式去行文,既使得各段落内的故事完整,内容充实,也让叙事的逻辑清晰可见。站在全篇文章的高度,原文的“开端-发展”,续以写作任务的“高潮-结局”,使全文故事完整,思维清晰,逻辑合理,表述流畅。“起承转合”模式既适用于分析解读理解全文的故事结构,从而站在语篇的高度决定续写内容,还可用于段落写作,帮助学生把每一段的内容有矛盾有冲突地发展到高潮并得以解决,让情节跌宕起伏,故事完整,逻辑清晰。

Mr Phillips was just getting ready to leave his office when he remembered that his wife had asked him to buy some bananas. When he stepped out, he saw an old lady across the road. She was selling fresh bananas on the street.
Mr Phillips usually bought bananas from a shop a few blocks away from his office, but since he was in a hurry to reach home that day, he thought about buying them from the old lady.
So he went to her and asked her the price. She said it was $7 per kilogram. He said, But the shop where I usually buy bananas sells them for $5 per kilogram. Can you sell them for the same price?“
The old lady said,” No, sir. I cannot afford to match that price. I can sell them to you for $6 per kilogram. That’s the best price I can offer.“ Mr Phillips told her,” Never mind.“ Then he left in his car to wards the usual shop.
He went inside and picked up a good bunch of bananas. He went to the cashier (收银员) to pay for them, but he was surprised when the cashier told him that the price per kilogram was $10.He told the cashier,” I have been buying bananas here for some years. Can’t you offer a better deal to regular customers?”
The manager heard their conversation and told Mr Phillips,“ Sorry, sir, but our prices are fixed. We do not bargain.” Mr Phillips felt very unhappy.
He thought for a second and put those bananas back. He decided not to buy anything from the shop in the future.
Then he went back to the old lady. She recognized him and told him with tears, “Sir, I can’t match that price. How can I survive without earning any money ?”I have to support myself with the little money I earn.“
Mr Phillips told her,” Don’t worry about the price. I will pay you $10 per kilogram! No, give me 2kg.”

Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn’t help weeping when she thought of the scolding from her mother. Having wandered in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles?” “Oh, yes…but I don’t have money on me,” she replied. “That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man. “Come in.” The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently.“What is it?” asked the man kindly. “Nothing, actually I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so merciless compared to a stranger!”
Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, do you really think so? I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times she cooked for you? Have you expressed your gratitude to her?”
Jenny sat there, speechless and numb with shock; she remembered Mother’s familiar face and weathered (沧桑的) hands. “Why did I not think of that? A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”
On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

Life at 16 took an unexpected turn when my parents decided to move our family from Texas to Arizona. In just two weeks, I had to say goodbye to my beloved teachers, dearest classmates and my best friends. I felt a sense of blame toward my parents for what seemed like turning my world upside down. I told everyone I’d be returning to Texas as soon as possible.
Upon arriving in Arizona, I made sure everyone knew I had friends waiting for me back in Texas. I was determined to keep my distance, firmly believing that I’d be leaving soon. The first day of school was a painful experience as I missed my friends in Texas badly. My life felt like it had come to an end.
Eventually though, things got a little better. In my art class, sitting just three seats away from me in the same front row was an outgoing girl with the most beautiful blue eyes I had ever seen. Her talent in art shone through her creations, and her lively spirit drew me in. I saw inspiration and connection in her that I so badly needed. Gathering my courage, I decided to talk to her. “Hi, my name is Sheila; what’s yours?” I asked with a Texan accent.
The girl next to her thought that I was asking her. “Emily.” “Oh, hi, Emily,” I played along. “What’s your name?” I asked again, focusing my attention on the blue-eyed girl. She looked behind her, not believing that I could be asking her for her name. “Jessie,” she answered quietly. “Hi, Jessie!” I smiled and returned to my work, awkward but satisfied. Little did I know, that chance encounter would change the course of my life.

One young excellent person went to apply for a position in a big company. After he passed the first interview, the director did the last interview and made the last decision. The director discovered from the CV that the youth’s academic (学术的) achievements were excellent all the way, from high school to the postgraduate (研究生) research.
The director asked, “Did you get any scholarships in school?” The youth answered “No”. The director asked, “Was it your father who paid your school fees?” The youth answered, “My father passed away when I was one year old. It was my mother who paid my school fees.”
The director asked, “Where did your mother work?” The youth answered, “My mother worked as a clothes cleaner.” The director requested the youth to show his hands. The youth showed a pair of hands that were smooth and perfect.
The director asked, “Have you ever helped your mother wash the clothes before?” The youth answered, “Never. My mother always wanted me to study and read more books. What’s more, my mother can wash clothes faster than me”. The director said, “I have a request. When you go back today, go and clean your mother’s hands, and then see me tomorrow morning”. The youth felt that his chance of getting a job was high. When he went back, he happily requested his mother to let him clean his hands. His mother felt strange, happy but with mixed feelings, and she showed her hands to the youth. The youth cleaned his mother’s hands slowly. It was the first time that he had noticed that his mother’s hands were so wrinkled, and there were so many cuts in her hands. Some cuts were so painful that his mother shivered (颤抖) when they were cleaned with water.

One day, Emma’s mother brought Emma to her favorite steak house (牛排餐厅). She was excited all the way when she was sitting in her mother’s car. Listening to the wonderful music, she couldn’t help but dance in the back seat. Considering her safety, her mother had to stop her and said, “Hey! My sweety! Please be quiet and fasten your seat belt!”
“Okay! Mom,” she answered while continuing to roll down the car window.
“Emma! Don’t head out of the window! This is very dangerous! No hands either!” Mom raised his voice as she spoke.
She said yes and then quietly sat back in place. But there was no previous happiness. She got off in silence and ordered meals silently. Her mother thought that perhaps her tone had just been too urgent, and she tried to make her happy. “Sweetheart, this is a monthly steak appointment. Can you enjoy it with your mom happily?”
Emma nodded silently but continued to stare out of the window. Ten minutes later, Emma looked at the large plate of steak and potatoes as if she had no intention of eating them. Mom sighed and asked, “Isn’t it your favorite steak, sweetheart?” “It is, mom,” Emma said in a low voice. After listening to her answer, Mom brought the steak and planned to help her daughter cut it into small pieces as before.
“No, mom, she quickly reached out for the plate. “I can only eat it once a month, right?” “Yes, we made a promise about this,” said the mother.
“Can I just give it to him?” Emma cautiously asked, and her-eyes filled with expectations. Following the direction of her finger, there was a homeless man in tattered (破烂的) clothes.

Isabel sat carefully inserting papers into a folder. She had been at the Nature Center's office all morning and was weary of filing the papers. She desperately wanted to work with the animals, especially the birds in the center. But her mom, who was the assistant director of the center, said Isabel was too young.
“I've been a weekend volunteer this whole school year. I know more about birds than almost anyone else here,” she said to herself, recalling the extensive research she had done while reading books on natural history. Then she sighed. She had never been good at speaking up for herself.
Suddenly, the quiet was shattered by Amy Jensen bursting in and letting the door slam. Isabel felt herself shrink. Amy, who had been a volunteer a bit longer than Isabel, walked around as if she were in charge of the place. “Hey, Isabel,” she barked, planting a hand on Isabel's shoulder. Isabel willed herself to remain still, though she would love to brush Amy's hand off.
Just then, Isabel's mother rushed into the room with Mr. Garza, the custodian (管理员). “The hurricane is entering the Gulf,” she reported. “The Gulf Shore Preserve needs help with preparing for the storm. I've got to go down there. You should be okay up here, but I need you girls to help Mr. Garza get the storm shutters closed in the aviary (鸟舍). Stay inside with Mr. Garza after that. ” Isabel leaped to her feet, excited to have an opportunity to help the birds.
Mr. Garza and the girls worked quickly and were soon back inside, listening to the wind batter and rattle the shutters. When Mr. Garza found an emergency weather report on the computer, a concerned expression crossed his face. “A storm is heading for our way,” he announced. Amy's eyes widened in horror.

Daniel said, “Aunt Kim asked me to bring her pig down to the porch. She said she always played the guitar with it.”
Evelyn smiled, “What’s her pig’s name?”
“She called it Lucky. She said it was pink, and she’d left it on her bed. But it wasn’t there.”
Evelyn said, “Pigs like to eat. Maybe somebody’s giving Lucky a snack in the kitchen.”
But the kitchen was empty of pigs and people. Just to be sure, they opened the pantry door and looked under the table. “It rained this morning. Maybe Lucky’s rolling in a mud puddle (泥坑),” said Daniel.
The cousins went out the back door. They looked all over the yard. “No mud puddles out here,” said Evelyn. “And there aren’t any holes, so Lucky didn’t run away.”
Back inside, they checked around sofas and chairs and bookcases. “Here, Lucky!” But they couldn’t find the pig.
Evelyn folded her arms. “I don’t think Lucky’s in somebody else’s bedroom. The doors were all closed. Wouldn’t you see a pig coming in when you were going out?”
“But Lucky is little. Aunt Kim told me she looked in her handbag, and the pig wasn’t there,” said Daniel.
“She keeps a pig in her purse? Lucky must be really small,” Evelyn said. “Are you sure it wasn’t in Aunt Kim’s room?”
“My cat hides under beds sometimes. Maybe Lucky does, too,” Daniel said. He led the way back upstairs. On his hands and knees, he lifted the blue and white quilt’s (棉被的) edge. “No pig here.”注意:

Dandelion Pinkley stood at Izzy Wishbones’s front door waiting excitedly for him to answer. This Golden Oval party sounded so fun! Izzy had planned the Golden Oval dinner to celebrate his closest old friends.
Now, Izzy opened the door, greeting Dandelion with a welcoming smile. But when she followed him into his family’s dining room, she wanted to faint (昏倒). She didn’t recognize a single kid. As she sat down, every kid looked at her strangely.
“This is my good friend Dandelion,” Izzy announced. “She’s the smartest, cleverest person I know!”
After that buildup, Dandelion felt even worse. She sat there with a frozen smile, feeling anything but herself.
A guy with curly hair said, “The Izz-bomb is bragging (夸耀) — about a girl!”
All the kids laughed.
“She’s Queen of Hearts with him!” said a girl.
“That’s right, Shanti!” Izzy said. “And Harmon, she’s worth bragging about!”
“Seriously?” Harmon replied.
Everyone laughed again. All except Dandelion. She focused on the food sitting before her. She knew just what they were and wanted some. But she didn’t move.
Izzy called for attention. “Welcome, Golden Oval friends of mine! Eat up and enjoy!”
It was a little corny, but everyone laughed it off. The other kids all dug in, talking and bragging and joking as they ate. None of them said anything to Dandelion. Finally, she filled her plate and started eating.
“Pass me some of those bananas,” Harmon said. “That’s a strange dinner food.”
Izzy looked at Dandelion and rolled his eyes. She smiled and shook her head.
“Yeah, they’re bananas!” somebody across the table shouted.
All at once, Dandelion’s mouth opened. “They’re not exactly bananas,” she said without thinking. “They’re plantains!” She couldn’t help herself. “They’re related to bananas, but they taste totally different. Some people call them the potato of the tropics (热带).”
“You tell them, Queen of Hearts!” Izzy said excitedly. “I cooked them myself just for you.” Izzy had long known plantains were one of Dandelion’s favorite foods.

高二英语读后续写基础技巧与整体演练
技巧08 起承转合关联读后续写
“起承转合” 理论模型是中国古代关于写作原理的最高成就 。“起承转合”之法最早出现于汉语诗歌的韵脚格律中,后又被运用于 “八股文”等其他文体,近代也被用于各种写作创作中 。作为写作结构章法术语, “起” 是指起始开端;“承” 是承接上文加以申述; “ 转” 是转折 ,从正面反面立论 ;“合” 是结束全文。如诗仙李白的《 静夜思》:床前明月光(起),疑是地上霜(承);举头望明月转),低头思故“ 起承转合” 理论模型是中国古代关于写作原理的最高成就。“起承转合”之法最早出现于汉语诗歌的韵脚格律中,后又被运用于 “八股文 ” 等其他文体 ,近代也被用于各种写作创作中。作为写作结构章法术语, “起” 是指起始开端;“承”是承接上文加以申述;“转”是转折,从正面反面立论;“合”是结束全文。如诗仙李白的《静夜思》:床前明月光(起),疑是地上霜(承);举头望明月(转),低头思故乡(合)。
有人认为“起承转合”是一种固化的模式,像八股文一样,禁锢了写作的思维,减弱了写作思维创造力。但实质上,“起承转合”的本质是“重复”和“对比”两种思维操作模型的有机组合运用。只要我们能真正理解其原理和实质,加以灵活运用,就能创造性地生成各种自由组合模式,如“起-承-承-合”,“起-承-承-转-合”,甚至“起-转-转-转-合”等,从而在写作思维上获得真正的自由。
因此,“起承转合”既是一种文章写作的基本规律和原理,让写作者可以直接使用或加以变化,也是一种思维方式和习惯,能够给学写文章的人提供一个从无话可说到有话可说的文本内容结构的思维操作模式。对于写不出、不会写的学生来说,“起承转合”正是一条写作入门的路径。
“起承转合”对于读后续写的指导意义在于:(1)“起承转合”提供了文章的章法。作为一种篇章结构,起承转合固定下来的模式使得文章在内容和形式上呈现出完整性,使文章条理分明,结构完整,从而帮助学生解决谋篇布局问题。(2)“起承转合”能开拓写作思路,以结构化了的章法模型来吸附和凝练学生心中已有的材料,从而生成所需要的篇章模型。这就是文章形式对文章内容的反推作用。从这个意义来说,“起承转合”不仅提供模板解决了“怎么写”的难题,还间接提示了学生“写什么”。(3)“起承转合”能使写作思维逻辑显性化。语篇逻辑的体现不仅仅在于衔接词,更重要的在于内容。句与句,段与段之间的关系,不仅仅体现层次与层次之间的相互勾连,实质上也是一种文章内容之间的深层次递进,体现了写作思维的逻辑性。“起承转合”能让写作逻辑看得见,就读后续写任务而言,“起”就是故事的开端;“承”是承接开端进一步推进故事的发展;“转”是从正面继续推进或转到反面建立故事的矛盾冲突达到故事高潮;“合”则是解决矛盾冲突以正能量结局结束全文。
“起承转合”在读后续写教学中的实践
基于以上所述,在面对读后续写新题型时,笔者尝试从“起承转合”的角度来指导学生进行写作。主要从下面三个方面开展:
(一)感受中英文“起承转合”写作章法模型
“起承转合”来自汉语,对“起承转合”的理解用母语的例子来解析最为易懂。最简单的是诗歌中的“起承转合”,如唐朝诗人孟浩然的《春晓》:春眠不觉晓(起),处处闻啼鸟(承)。夜来风雨声(转),花落知多少(合)。起为开端,承为进一步的描写,转为语境的画风突变,合为故事点题以及作者的情感落脚之处。又如李白的《朝发白帝城》:朝辞白帝彩云间(起),千里江陵一日还(承)。两岸猿声啼不住(转),轻舟已过万重山(合)。起得清新美丽欢快,承接原情调进一步展开,突转画风为愁怨凄厉,终又回到清新美丽欢快。现代文写作中,鲁迅先生对“起承转合”模式也有灵活的使用。小说《故乡》开头对故乡的描写为全文定下了荒凉萧索的基调,是为“起”;第二天回到家中对凄凉的母亲的描写,是为“承”;然后母亲提及润土带来大片美好的回忆,在情调上进行了“转”;最后见到润土和杨二嫂对其丑陋形象和扭曲灵魂的描写又回到了小说凄凉萧索的基调,是为“合”。
英语文体也有同样的模型。如下面的文章Social Practice(有删节)。
Recently,social practice has gained more and more popularity in universities and college.
There is no doubt that social practice has many advantages.To begin with,students can get a chance to contact society and meet all walks of people through social practice....Besides,by applying the knowledge that they have learned in class to practical work,students can know themselves better.Lastly,social practice can give students financial help and enable them independent of their family.
However,there is no denying that some problems may arise if no correct guidance is made.Some students may get overly interested in social practice and want to work full-time,thus neglecting their studies.And some students are likely to get in touch with the dark side of society,which will affect their future studies.
Aiming at carrying out social practice smoothly,students should first make clear its objective.Studies should always put in the first place and social practice should be treated as a useful supplement,so the students need to keep a balance between social practice and their studies.
这是一篇很典型的解释性说明文。全文结构是“总-分-分-总”,提出问题-正面分析问题-反面分析问题-提出解决办法。与汉语的“起-承-转-合”模式一致。
(二)欣赏叙事性文体中的“起承转合”
鉴于我们要解决的是读后续写的问题,读后续写属于叙事性体裁,因此,笔者特意跟学生分享了故事叙述中的“起承转合”结构。
1.从语言迁移的角度考虑,以《西游记》为例,进行故事模型的建构。《西游记》是我们大多数人最为熟悉的名著(名剧)。里面的每一个故事(剧集)基本上都按照一定的模式去开展。首先是唐僧师徒四人出发,此为“起”;然后进一步描写他们的旅途,此为“承”;接着在某种情形下必定遇上妖怪,师傅陷入危险,此为“转”;最后在自己或他神的帮助之下顺利解救师傅解决问题,此为“合”。所以,我们读后续写的每一个故事的整体谋篇布局,都可以按照《西游记》的模式去进行构思。
2.从故事本身出发,以情节推进为重点,着重细节描写。《水浒传》里有这么一个故事:三拳打死镇关西。寥寥数字已经说完了一个故事情节。这样的话,岂不是后续无话可写了?学生在写作中遇到无话可说的难题也是如此。要解此困境,关键在于细节描写。我们不妨把“三拳打死镇关西”这七字故事扩展一下,完善成以下小故事:鲁达、李忠、史进三人到潘家酒楼喝酒(起),听了金家父女对镇关西强媒硬娶,虚钱实契强占翠莲,又将她赶出,还向金家追要典身钱的血泪控诉(承),鲁达对镇关西大怒,当即赠送银两,第二天继而三拳打死郑屠,为民除害(转)。从此以后,他亡命江湖,最后被逼上梁山(合)。如此,读后续写的每一个段落中的情节片段也可以按此模式展开。
由此可见,叙事性文体中的“起承转合”实质就是故事写作的“开端-发展-高潮-结局”。
(三)实践基于“起承转合”模式的英语叙事文体语篇分析与后续写作
读后续写,顾名思义,先读后写,包括读懂原文和续写故事两个主要方面。笔者的解题步骤相应包括两个方面:用“起承转合”模型分析解读理解原文;再用“起承转合”模式完成后续故事撰写。下面以两个案例来说明:
【写作案例1】
What my father wore embarrassed me!I wanted him to dress like a doctor or lawyer,but he always dressed like my father,getting up before dawn every day to make breakfast for my mother and me.We lived in South Texas,where my father worked as a repairman.He often wore a pair of jeans and a shirt,keeping his pencils,glasses and wrenches(扳手)in his breast pocket.His boots were those with steel toes that made them difficult to pull off his feet,which I sometimes helped him with when he returned from repairing cars—his job that also shamed me.
I blamed the way he dressed.I felt that my classmates laughed at me because they'd seen him mowing lawns(修剪草坪)in cut-off jeans and black boots.My classmates' families paid men to beautify their lawns,while their fathers travelled in the bay wearing lemon-yellow sweaters and expensive shoes.
He preferred clothes that allowed him the freedom to move under cars.So even when taking part in a school trip with me,he was dressed in his repairman's suit.On the school bus to the campsite,all students on the bus happily chatted with their parents except me,who lowered the head,avoiding spotting my classmate smocking glance(讥笑的眼光)or hearing their jokes,which I thought was about nothing else but what my father wore.
I regretted telling my parents the school trip,and I was very angry why my mother had no spare time while my father happened to have a vacation.But my father failed to read my mind.He was very happy,whistling a tune along the way.
Though my father didn't sense my bad mood,the school bus seemed as sad as I was.It drove more and more slowly and finally it stopped on the roadside.The driver got out to check the bus butfound nothing wrong.Students and parents on the bus began to whisper about what was happening,worried that the delay might spoil the journey.
【写作分析】
1.“起承转合”原文解读
开端(起),是问题的提出部分:父亲是一位修理工,一身工作服的穿着让我很尴尬,我希望他穿着得体,像个医生或律师那样。
发展(承),是矛盾冲突的升级,解决办法初现的部分:有一次我们班开展郊游活动,爸爸依然穿着修理工的衣服来参加。途中汽车出故障抛锚了,司机检查不出问题所在。大家都很担心郊游会被毁了。
原文故事就到这里为止。按照叙事性文体“开端(起)-发展(承)-高潮(转)-结局(合)”的谋篇布局,接下来要学生续写的两个段落应该是故事的高潮(转)和结局(合)部分。
2.“起承转合”故事续写
按照上面的布局可知,后续的高潮(转)和结局(合)各占一段。每一段的写作又可以按照“起承转合”的模式去展开。我们可以这样写作:
续写第一段:When others were complaining ,my father stood up.(起:爸爸)At the thought that he would offer his assistance reduce people's anxiety,a great sense of delight flooded over him.He approached the driver,explaining that he was a repairman could offer to help.(承:爸爸)Seeing him crawling under the bus,I was overwhelmed by a feeling of embarrassment.Ilowered my head,trying not to spot my classmates' scornful look.(转:我)However,the following moments witnessed my father's professional skills in repair.(合:结果)
续写第一段是故事的高潮(转)部分,也就是矛盾冲突得以解决的主要阵地。根据首句的起点爸爸站起来,第二句和第三句承接前文写爸爸的情感和行为。然后转到对“我”的心理、情感和行动的描写。最后一句合是指本段解决问题的结果:爸爸把车修好了。
续写第二段:The school bus restarted and everyone cheered.(起:每个人)Everyone was impressed by my father's enthusiasm and superb skills.No sooner had my father stepped on the bus than they burst into thunderous applause.My classmates expressed gratitude to my father and said to me,“Hey,your father is so cool!”(承:每个人)Seeing their eyes twinkling with admiration,I felt extremely guilty but proud of my father,tears streaming down my cheeks.(转:我)While my father didn't dress like a doctor or a lawyer,he taught me the profound truth that what really matters is not the way we wear but the way we act.(合:升华主题)
续写第二段是故事的结局(合)部分。爸爸修好车后,根据首句起点每个人的欢呼,承接上文继续写每个人如何欢呼以及如何行动。然后转到“我”的转变描写。最后一句合是点明主旨,升华主题,以“我最后明白了,真正重要的不是一个人的外表,而是一个人的行动”来结束全文。
【案例示例2】
With the start of new school,freshmen of Hendersonville High School in Nashville were excited to meet new classmates and teachers.Among them,however,15-year-old Sergio Peralta was feeling very nervous because his right hand had never fully formed since he was born.Going to a new school and being“different”Is always scary.Sergio was particularly concerned with what his classmates would think of him.
Sergio's parents had trained him to use his left hand from a nearly age.As he grew up,he was used to not using his right hand.He could write with his left one and do some things with special tricks or techniques.Despite this,in the first days of new school,Sergio always felt like hiding his underdeveloped right hand in his sleeve as if nobody would ever find out if he did so.
It didn't take long for someone to learn Sergio's secret.Jeff Wilkins,the teacher of Sergio's engineering class,figured out that sergio was missing part of his hand and decided to do something for the new student.Jeff had been leading a robotics project in the school and expert in 3D printing technology.Besides,he hoped to take advantage of this hands-on chance to help his robotics students learn more about engineering and how building a robotic hand worked.
So in his class,Jeff announced with great enthusiasm,“You're supposed to be engineering,coming up with new ideas and solving issues.Now Sergio needs a new hand,so we'll work together to build Sergio a robotic hand.”His words fueled everyone's curiosity and creativity.
For the next four weeks,Jeff and his class including Sergio worked on the project.After some precise measurements and researches,the class put forward a design draft.Jeff made a few adjustments and gave them some practical suggestions.With access to online models and a 3D printer,they eventually created a robotic hand,which was intended to look good and work well,like catching something.
【写作分析】
1.“起承转合”原文解读
开端(起),是问题的提出部分:Sergio是一位右手有缺失的学生。由于身体的不同而非常害怕同学们对他的态度。虽然他从小被训练能用左手去做事情,但是他还是尝试去藏起他的右手。
发展(承),是矛盾冲突的升级,解决办法初现的部分:老师Jeff发现了Sergio的事情,决定和同学们一起,利用他们的专长——3D打印技术去帮助Sergio。经过四个星期的努力,他们最终造出了一个机械手臂。
原文故事就到这里为止。按照叙事性文体“开端(起)-发展(承)-高潮(转)-结局(合)”的谋篇布局,接下来要学生续写的两个段落应该是故事的高潮(转)和结局(合)部分。
2.“起承转合”故事续写
按照上面的布局可知,后续的高潮(转)和结局(合)各占一段。每一段的写作又可以按照“起承转合”的模式去展开。我们可以这样写作:
续写第一段:Then came the final testing day.(起:最后的测试日)With the mixture of anxiety and upset,Sergio couldn't wait for the exciting moment to come.The whole class gathered in the science classroom,watching breathlessly as Jeff carefully loaded their self-made robotic hand onto Sergio's right arm.It fitted quite well!(承:测试日)So excited was Sergio that his arm trembled slightly.Having put a baseball on the desk,Jeff signed to Sergio to pick it up.Slowly,Sergio extended his right hand and reached for the ball.Successfully he caught hold of it and everyone present broke into cheers!Holding the ball,Sergio couldn't containhis tears.(转:Sergio)Never in his life did he expect to catch something with his right hand!(合:成功了)
续写第一段是故事的高潮(转)部分,也就是矛盾冲突得以解决的主要阵地。根据首句的起点最终的测试日的到来,接下来三句承接前文写测试日的操作。然后转到对主人公Sergio的心理、情感和行动的描写。最后一句合是指本段解决问题的结果:Sergio终于能用右手来抓住东西了。
续写第二段:The life-changing gift for Sergio drew huge attention.(起:改变一生的礼物,巨大的关注).With the well-looked and well-working robotic hand,Sergio felt a wave of gratitude to his teacher and his classmates.He thought he would never feel nervous again on the first school day any more in his life.(承:改变一生的礼物)Jeff and his students became an instant hit and various media competed to cover the news.With a great relief and great joy,they expressed their sincere hope for Sergio.(转:Jeff和同学们,巨大的关注)Life may be full of ups and downs,but with advanced technology,there is always hope to overcome any difficulty.Never should we lose hope for life!(合:升华主题)
续写第二段是故事的结局(合)部分。测试成功后,根据首句起点改变一生的礼物,承接上文继续写这份礼物带给主人公Sergio的影响。然后转到另一个角度———引发巨大的关注和对师生的描写。最后一句合是点明主旨,升华主题,以“生活总是充满了困难,但是总有办法解决。所以,永远不要对生活失去希望”来结束全文。
由此可见,按照“起承转合”模式去行文,既使得各段落内的故事完整,内容充实,也让叙事的逻辑清晰可见。站在全篇文章的高度,原文的“开端-发展”,续以写作任务的“高潮-结局”,使全文故事完整,思维清晰,逻辑合理,表述流畅。“起承转合”模式既适用于分析解读理解全文的故事结构,从而站在语篇的高度决定续写内容,还可用于段落写作,帮助学生把每一段的内容有矛盾有冲突地发展到高潮并得以解决,让情节跌宕起伏,故事完整,逻辑清晰。

Mr Phillips was just getting ready to leave his office when he remembered that his wife had asked him to buy some bananas. When he stepped out, he saw an old lady across the road. She was selling fresh bananas on the street.
Mr Phillips usually bought bananas from a shop a few blocks away from his office, but since he was in a hurry to reach home that day, he thought about buying them from the old lady.
So he went to her and asked her the price. She said it was $7 per kilogram. He said, But the shop where I usually buy bananas sells them for $5 per kilogram. Can you sell them for the same price?“
The old lady said,” No, sir. I cannot afford to match that price. I can sell them to you for $6 per kilogram. That’s the best price I can offer.“ Mr Phillips told her,” Never mind.“ Then he left in his car to wards the usual shop.
He went inside and picked up a good bunch of bananas. He went to the cashier (收银员) to pay for them, but he was surprised when the cashier told him that the price per kilogram was $10.He told the cashier,” I have been buying bananas here for some years. Can’t you offer a better deal to regular customers?”
The manager heard their conversation and told Mr Phillips,“ Sorry, sir, but our prices are fixed. We do not bargain.” Mr Phillips felt very unhappy.
He thought for a second and put those bananas back. He decided not to buy anything from the shop in the future.
Then he went back to the old lady. She recognized him and told him with tears, “Sir, I can’t match that price. How can I survive without earning any money ?”I have to support myself with the little money I earn.“
Mr Phillips told her,” Don’t worry about the price. I will pay you $10 per kilogram! No, give me 2kg.”

Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn’t help weeping when she thought of the scolding from her mother. Having wandered in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles?” “Oh, yes…but I don’t have money on me,” she replied. “That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man. “Come in.” The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently.“What is it?” asked the man kindly. “Nothing, actually I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so merciless compared to a stranger!”
Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, do you really think so? I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times she cooked for you? Have you expressed your gratitude to her?”
Jenny sat there, speechless and numb with shock; she remembered Mother’s familiar face and weathered (沧桑的) hands. “Why did I not think of that? A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”
On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

Life at 16 took an unexpected turn when my parents decided to move our family from Texas to Arizona. In just two weeks, I had to say goodbye to my beloved teachers, dearest classmates and my best friends. I felt a sense of blame toward my parents for what seemed like turning my world upside down. I told everyone I’d be returning to Texas as soon as possible.
Upon arriving in Arizona, I made sure everyone knew I had friends waiting for me back in Texas. I was determined to keep my distance, firmly believing that I’d be leaving soon. The first day of school was a painful experience as I missed my friends in Texas badly. My life felt like it had come to an end.
Eventually though, things got a little better. In my art class, sitting just three seats away from me in the same front row was an outgoing girl with the most beautiful blue eyes I had ever seen. Her talent in art shone through her creations, and her lively spirit drew me in. I saw inspiration and connection in her that I so badly needed. Gathering my courage, I decided to talk to her. “Hi, my name is Sheila; what’s yours?” I asked with a Texan accent.
The girl next to her thought that I was asking her. “Emily.” “Oh, hi, Emily,” I played along. “What’s your name?” I asked again, focusing my attention on the blue-eyed girl. She looked behind her, not believing that I could be asking her for her name. “Jessie,” she answered quietly. “Hi, Jessie!” I smiled and returned to my work, awkward but satisfied. Little did I know, that chance encounter would change the course of my life.

The director asked, “Did you get any scholarships in school?” The youth answered “No”. The director asked, “Was it your father who paid your school fees?” The youth answered, “My father passed away when I was one year old. It was my mother who paid my school fees.”
The director asked, “Where did your mother work?” The youth answered, “My mother worked as a clothes cleaner.” The director requested the youth to show his hands. The youth showed a pair of hands that were smooth and perfect.
The director asked, “Have you ever helped your mother wash the clothes before?” The youth answered, “Never. My mother always wanted me to study and read more books. What’s more, my mother can wash clothes faster than me”. The director said, “I have a request. When you go back today, go and clean your mother’s hands, and then see me tomorrow morning”. The youth felt that his chance of getting a job was high. When he went back, he happily requested his mother to let him clean his hands.

Listening to the wonderful music, she couldn’t help but dance in the back seat. Considering her safety, her mother had to stop her and said, “Hey! My sweety! Please be quiet and fasten your seat belt!”
“Okay! Mom,” she answered while continuing to roll down the car window.
“Emma! Don’t head out of the window! This is very dangerous! No hands either!” Mom raised his voice as she spoke.
She said yes and then quietly sat back in place. But there was no previous happiness. She got off in silence and ordered meals silently. Her mother thought that perhaps her tone had just been too urgent, and she tried to make her happy. “Sweetheart, this is a monthly steak appointment. Can you enjoy it with your mom happily?”
Emma nodded silently but continued to stare out of the window. Ten minutes later, Emma looked at the large plate of steak and potatoes as if she had no intention of eating them. Mom sighed and asked, “Isn’t it your favorite steak, sweetheart?” “It is, mom,” Emma said in a low voice. After listening to her answer, Mom brought the steak and planned to help her daughter cut it into small pieces as before.
“No, mom, she quickly reached out for the plate. “I can only eat it once a month, right?” “Yes, we made a promise about this,” said the mother.
“Can I just give it to him?” Emma cautiously asked, and her-eyes filled with expectations. Following the direction of her finger, there was a homeless man in tattered (破烂的) clothes. And she realized that the man was the figure that flashed by the roadside when her daughter leaned out of the window in the car.
“Of course, you can,” her mother agreed.

Isabel sat carefully inserting papers into a folder. She had been at the Nature Center's office all morning and was weary of filing the papers. She desperately wanted to work with the animals, especially the birds in the center. But her mom, who was the assistant director of the center, said Isabel was too young.
“I've been a weekend volunteer this whole school year. I know more about birds than almost anyone else here,” she said to herself, recalling the extensive research she had done while reading books on natural history. Then she sighed. She had never been good at speaking up for herself.
Suddenly, the quiet was shattered by Amy Jensen bursting in and letting the door slam. Isabel felt herself shrink. Amy, who had been a volunteer a bit longer than Isabel, walked around as if she were in charge of the place. “Hey, Isabel,” she barked, planting a hand on Isabel's shoulder. Isabel willed herself to remain still, though she would love to brush Amy's hand off.
Just then, Isabel's mother rushed into the room with Mr. Garza, the custodian (管理员). “The hurricane is entering the Gulf,” she reported. “The Gulf Shore Preserve needs help with preparing for the storm. I've got to go down there. You should be okay up here, but I need you girls to help Mr. Garza get the storm shutters closed in the aviary (鸟舍). Stay inside with Mr. Garza after that. ” Isabel leaped to her feet, excited to have an opportunity to help the birds.
Mr. Garza and the girls worked quickly and were soon back inside, listening to the wind batter and rattle the shutters. When Mr. Garza found an emergency weather report on the computer, a concerned expression crossed his face. “A storm is heading for our way,” he announced. Amy's eyes widened in horror.

“Why were you in Aunt Kim’s room, Daniel?” asked Evelyn.
Daniel shut the door behind him. “I’m looking for her pig.”
“Aunt Kim has a pig?” asked Evelyn, wide-eyed.
Daniel and Evelyn were cousins. They were at Grandma’s house for a family get-together. Right now, people were listening to each other play music on the front porch (门廊).
Daniel said, “Aunt Kim asked me to bring her pig down to the porch. She said she always played the guitar with it.”
Evelyn smiled, “What’s her pig’s name?”
“She called it Lucky. She said it was pink, and she’d left it on her bed. But it wasn’t there.”
Evelyn said, “Pigs like to eat. Maybe somebody’s giving Lucky a snack in the kitchen.”
But the kitchen was empty of pigs and people. Just to be sure, they opened the pantry door and looked under the table. “It rained this morning. Maybe Lucky’s rolling in a mud puddle (泥坑),” said Daniel.
The cousins went out the back door. They looked all over the yard. “No mud puddles out here,” said Evelyn. “And there aren’t any holes, so Lucky didn’t run away.”
Back inside, they checked around sofas and chairs and bookcases. “Here, Lucky!” But they couldn’t find the pig.
Evelyn folded her arms. “I don’t think Lucky’s in somebody else’s bedroom. The doors were all closed. Wouldn’t you see a pig coming in when you were going out?”
“But Lucky is little. Aunt Kim told me she looked in her handbag, and the pig wasn’t there,” said Daniel.
“She keeps a pig in her purse? Lucky must be really small,” Evelyn said. “Are you sure it wasn’t in Aunt Kim’s room?”
“My cat hides under beds sometimes. Maybe Lucky does, too,” Daniel said. He led the way back upstairs. On his hands and knees, he lifted the blue and white quilt’s (棉被的) edge. “No pig here.”注意:

Dandelion Pinkley stood at Izzy Wishbones’s front door waiting excitedly for him to answer. This Golden Oval party sounded so fun! Izzy had planned the Golden Oval dinner to celebrate his closest old friends.
Now, Izzy opened the door, greeting Dandelion with a welcoming smile. But when she followed him into his family’s dining room, she wanted to faint (昏倒). She didn’t recognize a single kid. As she sat down, every kid looked at her strangely.
“This is my good friend Dandelion,” Izzy announced. “She’s the smartest, cleverest person I know!”
After that buildup, Dandelion felt even worse. She sat there with a frozen smile, feeling anything but herself.
A guy with curly hair said, “The Izz-bomb is bragging (夸耀) — about a girl!”
All the kids laughed.
“She’s Queen of Hearts with him!” said a girl.
“That’s right, Shanti!” Izzy said. “And Harmon, she’s worth bragging about!”
“Seriously?” Harmon replied.
Everyone laughed again. All except Dandelion. She focused on the food sitting before her. She knew just what they were and wanted some. But she didn’t move.
Izzy called for attention. “Welcome, Golden Oval friends of mine! Eat up and enjoy!”
It was a little corny, but everyone laughed it off. The other kids all dug in, talking and bragging and joking as they ate. None of them said anything to Dandelion. Finally, she filled her plate and started eating.
“Pass me some of those bananas,” Harmon said. “That’s a strange dinner food.”
Izzy looked at Dandelion and rolled his eyes. She smiled and shook her head.
“Yeah, they’re bananas!” somebody across the table shouted.
All at once, Dandelion’s mouth opened. “They’re not exactly bananas,” she said without thinking. “They’re plantains!” She couldn’t help herself. “They’re related to bananas, but they taste totally different. Some people call them the potato of the tropics (热带).”
“You tell them, Queen of Hearts!” Izzy said excitedly. “I cooked them myself just for you.” Izzy had long known plantains were one of Dandelion’s favorite foods.

参考答案
1.
The old lady got very happy and packed the bananas. She said,“ I can’t take $10 from you. I will sell them to you at $7 per kilogram. I appreciate your kindness.” Then she told him,“ My husband used to own a small shop but he got very sick. We have no child who could help us. We had to sell our shop to cover his medical bills. He died one month ago.” Her eyes were filled with tears. She continued,“ Now I am selling fruits to make a living.”
Mr Phillips told her,“ Don’t worry.” He decided to only buy bananas from the old lady in the future. He gave her a $100 bill and said,“ This is the money I will spend buying your bananas and other fruits. Bring more kinds of fruits to sell tomorrow. You can earn more if customers have different kinds to choose from.” The old lady thanked him. Later, Mr Phillips invited his friends to buy fruits from the lady. With the support of Mr Phillips and many other buyers, the old lady made a better living.
