(2022·山东省枣庄市高二期末)
For the past two years,I have held the storytelling championship.I was the shining star of my school.When it came to choosing the right candidate to participate in such competitions,I was always the first choice.Naturally,I was once again selected to represent my school in the approaching contest this year.
Upon hearing the fact that I was chosen again,my classmates and friends acknowledged that I would undoubtedly be regarded as the champion again.Consequently,I became so proud that I ignored the importance of practicing for the contest.
A week before the contest,my teacher Ms.Sara asked,“Selena,would you like to stand in front of the class to present your work for the contest?” She had taught me in the past two competitions and knew how important practice was.“Just imagine you are on the stage in the presence of the audience,” she added.
“I’m sorry,Ms.Sara,” I replied.“I have a bit of a sore throat.”
This was usually the lie I would tell whenever my teacher requested me to practice in front of the class.I always found excuses to avoid doing it because I believed that I was the best and therefore the practice was unnecessary.On one occasion,I even told Ms.Sara not to worry too much as I was well prepared for the contest.In fact,I did everything but practice my lines.I only managed to glance briefly through the story the day before the contest.As the best storyteller among the students of the local secondary schools,I was too vain to practice and expected everything to be fine.
The contest was being held in the local community hall.On the day of the contest,the hall was packed.My school teachers and principal were there along with many of my classmates and schoolmates.I was the eighth contestant out of twenty in total.Those who spoke before me did extremely well.On seeing their fascinating and outstanding performance,I began to lose confidence in myself.My palms sweated heavily and I started to feel nervous.Soon,it was my turn to talk.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1:
With butterflies in my stomach,I breathed deeply.
Paragraph 2:
The teacher’s words changed me and gave me the confidence to step onto the stage again.
参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
With butterflies in my stomach,I breathed deeply.Stepping onto the stage and facing the crowd,I found myself suffering from stage fright.All of a sudden,I found my mind went blank.I couldn’t express myself wholly.My legs began trembling and my voice stuttered every now and then.Feeling terrible and ashamed,I turned around and rushed down from the stage without even saying sorry to the judges and the students below the stage.
Paragraph 2:
The teacher’s words changed me and gave me the confidence to step onto the stage again.While standing there,I felt relaxed this time.Saying sorry to the judges for what I had done,I spoke in an energetic voice,which inspired the passion from my classmates supporting me all the time.They applauded and cheered as I finished the story.Though not gaining any medals,I finally understood the meaning of the saying,“Practice makes perfect.”
