2025届高考英语读后续写专题之助人类 善意的钢琴之约：点亮祖孙两代的音乐之光 讲义

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。 After graduating from college, I worked as a salesman for a piano company. We advertised our pianos in small town newspapers and then, when we received many replies, we would load our little trucks, drive into the area and sell the pianos to those who had replied. Every time we advertised, we would receive a reply on a postcard which said,“Please bring me a new piano for my little granddaughter. It must be red mahogany (红木). I can pay$10 a month with my egg money.” Of course, we could not sell a new piano for $10 a month. No finance company would carry a contract with payments that small, so we ignored her postcards. One day, however, I happened to be in that area calling on other replies, and out of curiosity I decided to meet the old lady. I found pretty much what I expected: The old lady lived in a one-room cabin in the middle of a cotton field. The cabin had a dirt floor and there were chickens in the house. Obviously, she could not have qualified to purchase anything on credit—no car, no phone, no real job, nothing but a roof over her head. I could see daylight through the roof in several places. Her little granddaughter was about 10, barefoot and wearing a feed sack (麻布袋) dress. I explained to the old lady that we could not sell a new piano for $10 a month and that she should stop writing to us every time she saw our advertisement. I drove away heartsick, but my advice had no effect—she still sent us the same postcard every six weeks. Always wanting a new piano, red mahogany, she swore she would never miss a $10 payment. It was sad. Several years later, I owned my own piano company, and when I advertised in that area, the postcards started coming to me. For months, I ignored them—what else could I do? 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: But then, one day when I was in that area, I made a big decision. Paragraph 2: Twenty years later, while sitting at a bar, I heard the most beautiful piano music behind me. 话题： 助人篇 文章大意 作者曾在一家钢琴公司做推销员，经常收到一位老太太用明信片请求以每月 10 美元的价格买一架红木色新钢琴给孙女的请求，但因付款太少公司无法接受而一直无视。作者曾亲自拜访老太太，看到她生活贫困，劝告无果。多年后作者自己开了公司，仍收到老太太同样的明信片，依旧无视。 几处伏笔及续写回应 1. 伏笔：老太太坚持要钢琴且发誓不拖欠付款，作者虽无视但内心有触动。回应：作者后来决定去见老太太，满足她的愿望。 2. 伏笔：提到了老太太的孙女。回应：二十年后在酒吧听到美妙琴声，可能与孙女有关。 续写要点 1. 情感线：从无奈和无视转变为同情和善良的行动，最后因听到琴声而欣慰感动。 2. 故事线：作者决定去见老太太并卖给她钢琴，二十年后在酒吧听到美妙音乐，猜测与老太太孙女相关。 3. 主旨升华句 1. Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see. 2. A small act of kindness can have a big impact on someone's life. 3. True generosity is doing something nice for someone who will never find out. 4. Sometimes, following our hearts instead of the rules can bring beautiful surprises. 5. The seeds of kindness we plant today may bloom into the most beautiful flowers of tomorrow. 写作示范1 Paragraph 1: But then, one day when I was in that area, I made a big decision. I decided to visit the old lady again. When I arrived at her cabin, she was as poor as before, but her eyes still shone with hope. I told her that I would sell her a red mahogany piano. She was so excited that tears filled her eyes. I delivered the piano to her the next day. As I left, I saw the little girl's eyes full of joy and wonder looking at the new piano. Paragraph 2: Twenty years later, while sitting at a bar, I heard the most beautiful piano music behind me. I turned around and saw a young woman playing with great skill.

Her granddaughter's eyes sparkled with excitement as she touched the piano keys for the first time.

I was deeply touched, realizing that a simple act of kindness can create a miracle. 参考范文： But then, one day when I was in that area, I made a big decision. Despite knowing that it was a terrible business decision, I loaded a red mahogany piano onto my little truck. I delivered the piano to the old lady. I placed the new piano in the house, advised her and the little girl to keep the chickens off it and left. I was sure that I had just thrown away a new piano. To my surprise, the payments came in on time with a thank-you note every month. Twenty years later, while sitting at a bar, I heard the most beautiful piano music behind me. Looking around, I saw a lovely young woman playing a very nice grand piano. Shocked by her great performance, I moved to a table beside her. She stopped and smiled at me politely, "Aren't you the man who sold my grandma a piano a long time ago?" It didn't ring a bell, so she started to explain. And I suddenly remembered it was her, the little barefoot girl in the feed sack dress! I was so glad that my kindness did make a real difference. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
