读后续写--积极认知的力量：杰克的故事 讲义-2025届江苏省淮阴中学一模英语试题

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。 My middle child, Jake, was smart and good-looking, but he always sees the cup of life as half empty. Every day when he came home from school, Jake would list everything bad that happened that day! On his ninth birthday, we saved enough money to take the family to Disneyland for two days. His dad and I didn’t make much then, so it cost a considerable amount, but we felt Jake’s birthday was worth it. After doing Disneyland to death (玩够了), we returned to our hotel room, all exhausted. And I asked the birthday boy, “Did you have fun today, Jake?” All my fault-finding son could say to me was “Pirates (海盗) of the Caribbean was closed!” “Jake Marshall,” I was clearly unable to contain my anger, “we stood in line for an hour and a half to see The Haunted Mansion. We rode Space Mountain three times. We spent two days playing in the park, and all you can say is, Pirates of the Caribbean was closed?” Clearly, something had to be done about his negative attitude and I was going to be the one to do it! I was determined to help him. I read every article and bought every book. With the help of great resources, I found my son had the tendency to see the worst in every situation. My research told me that people with negativity have an emotional need for order and sensitivity. That meant I needed to listen to my son’s daily pessimistic reports. My usual reaction was to try to talk Jake out of his negativity, but that wouldn’t satisfy his need for sensitivity, so I had to let him finish his complaints and ask what good things happened. Then I needed to wait until he could tell me. This would help Jake realize that good things really were happening to him. 注意： 1．所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右；     2．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； One day Jake came home from school and complained as usual. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From then on, Jake came to understand the power of seeing good points. —————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— 文章大意 作者的儿子 Jake 是个聪明帅气的孩子，但总是很消极，看事情只看到不好的一面。在 Jake 九岁生日时，全家省吃俭用带他去迪士尼玩了两天，回来后他却只抱怨 “加勒比海盗” 项目关闭了。作者决定改变他这种消极态度，通过研究了解到消极的人对秩序和情感敏感有需求，于是决定改变自己对待儿子抱怨的方式，倾听他的抱怨，并引导他发现好的方面。 几处伏笔及在续写中的回应 · 伏笔：作者决定改变对待儿子抱怨的方式，倾听并引导他发现好事。 · 回应：续写中作者在儿子日常抱怨时运用新的方法帮助他改变。 续写要点 情感线 从儿子的消极抱怨，到在作者引导下逐渐发现生活中的美好，情感从负面转向正面。 故事线 第一段写儿子像往常一样抱怨，作者引导他发现好的事情；第二段写儿子开始理解看到好的一面的力量，变得积极向上。 主旨升华句 1.

He grumbled that he didn't get the role he wanted in the school play and the cafeteria food was terrible. I let him rant and then asked what good things happened. At first, he was silent. But after a while, he said his friend helped him with math homework. I praised him for noticing this good thing. From then on, Jake came to understand the power of seeing good points. He started to share more positive things with me. When something bad happened, he would also mention the good side. His attitude became more positive, and he seemed much happier. He learned that there's always a silver lining if we look hard enough. 第二篇 One day Jake came home from school and complained as usual. He moaned that the teacher gave too much homework and he lost his favorite pencil during class. I patiently listened and then asked him if there was anything good. He thought for a moment and said that he got an extra cookie during snack time. I smiled and told him it was a lovely little thing. From then on, Jake came to understand the power of seeing good points. He became less negative and more cheerful. When he faced difficulties, he would first look for the positive aspects. He realized that focusing on the good could make his life more enjoyable and filled with hope. 参考范文： One day Jake came home from school and complained as usual. He listed the terrible things at school. I listened carefully, looking at him and nodding now and then. After his complaint, I asked what good things happened to him. “Nothing.” His response was what I could expect. “Something good must have happened. Think it over, my boy.” I encouraged with a gentle smile. After about fifteen minutes’ effort, he admitted being praised by his head teacher for helping cleaning the teacher’ s desk. Through this practice, he realized something good really happened to him. From then on, Jake came to understand the power of seeing good points. He would not just consider everything awful, but was willing to discover something awesome. And to my great joy, he kept patient and peaceful during his sharing. He even danced in excitement at wonderful things. I witnessed his attitude changing from negativity to positivity. The path to getting there seemed to be a struggle, but he was making headway. My hard work was paying off and I believed Jake would get used to seeing the cup of life as half full.     学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
