读后续写 关爱与责任,温暖邻里情 讲义 山东省枣庄市第八中学2024-2025学年高一上学期期末英语试题
原题
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。
Mrs. Riley and I always shout at each other. I shout because she can’t hear me, and she shouts because she can’t hear herself.
“What do you need from the store?” I’ll cry out.
“Bananas,” she’ll cry out back.
You don’t realize what a funny word bananas is until you hear it shouted by an eighty-year-old woman.
I work for Mrs. Riley. I buy groceries for her at the supermarket on Nostrand Avenue, and sometimes I dust and sweep her apartment. The best part, though, is taking care of Sam.
Sam is Mrs. Riley’s canary(金丝雀). He’s bright yellow, and he sings all the time. That’s one thing about canaries. They’re always cheerful.
That’s what I’m saving my money for. I’m going to buy a canary. And besides the canary, I have to get a cage and swings (秋千) and toys and food.
“Do you have enough money yet, girl?” Mrs. Riley always shouts at me.
“Not yet,” I shout back. “Soon.”
And she always calls me girl, not Carla. Sometimes I think she doesn’t remember my name.
Last Thursday I ran upstairs to Mrs. Riley’s. She wasn’t in her usual place by the window. She was in bed. She was sick.
“You can’t work for me anymore,” Mrs. Riley said. She coughed. “I have to take medicine, and it costs a lot. I can’t pay you. “
I felt sick to my stomach. How would I find another job? I went over and stuck my finger in Sam’s cage. He hopped on his swing and sang hello.
“I’m sorry that you’re sick,” I shouted to Mrs. Riley.
Then I turned and left.

写作示范一
But that night I couldn’t sleep. I tossed and turned in bed, images of Mrs. Riley’s sick face and Sam’s cute chirping constantly flashing through my mind. I thought about how much she had helped me in the past and how much I cared about Sam. I knew I couldn't just leave them. So, I decided to use some of my saved money to buy some things for them.
The next day I ran upstairs. I knocked on the door nervously. When Mrs. Riley opened it, she looked even weaker. I held up the bag of groceries and the new toy for Sam. “I brought these for you. And I'll still take care of Sam for free. You don't have to worry,” I shouted. Mrs. Riley's eyes filled with tears. She hugged me tightly, and at that moment, I knew I had done the right thing.
写作示范二
But that night I couldn’t sleep. I lay awake, worrying about Mrs. Riley's health and Sam's well - being. I remembered all the good times we had together. I realized that money wasn't the most important thing. What mattered was the care and connection we shared. So, I made a plan to help them.
The next day I ran upstairs. I had made some soup for Mrs. Riley and found an old blanket for Sam's cage. When I saw Mrs. Riley, I said, “I'm here for you and Sam. We'll get through this together.” Mrs. Riley was so touched that she couldn't speak. She just held my hand, and I knew our bond was stronger than ever.
参考答案
But that night I couldn’t sleep. Thoughts about Mrs. Riley and Sam swirled in my head. I was deeply worried about how Mrs. Riley was coping with her illness alone and whether Sam was being properly cared for. I realized that they needed me, and I couldn't just abandon them because I wasn't getting paid. So, I decided to continue helping them out of kindness.
The next day I ran upstairs. I knocked gently on the door. When Mrs. Riley opened it, she looked surprised and a bit tired. I held out a container of homemade soup and said, “I made this for you. And I'm not leaving Sam. I'll take care of him for free until you get better.” Mrs. Riley's eyes welled up with tears. She pulled me into a warm hug, and I felt a sense of comfort, knowing that I was doing the right thing.
