[参考范文]
Having watched the video,I felt so excited.It is amazing that you are interested in the Chinese Spring Festival.
Firstly,what left me a deep impression was that you celebrated the festival by making dumplings,because it is the Chinese traditional food.In addition,the decorations in your room in the video really caught my eyes,especially the Chinese knot.
In the end,would you tell me something about how you celebrate the festivals of other countries? I think it will help us enhance the understanding the diverse cultures.
Ⅲ.读后续写
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。
It was probably her giggling(咯咯笑) that drew my attention.English reading really wasn't that funny as far as I knew.
It was early May and I was facing a class of sixteen kids.Though I had almost three years of teaching,this particular sixth grade class had pushed me to the limits of my patience far too many times,and I couldn't wait to wave goodbye to them for the summer.
I had kept away from the ideal of my first year of teaching.That first year I'd covered up the small hole in the window with an inspirational poster.I'd decorated the walls with pictures of famous universities.I told the kids daily that they always had something worth struggling for.Together we would work hard and make something of their lives.
The problem,of course,was that my ideals kept being defeated by reality.Not just the reality of troubled families.I was also faced with the basic reality of the twelve-and thirteen-year-old mind.The universal mind,“You can't make me!”
And now I was faced with a giggle when I should have had only full attention.Walking over to the young peacebreaker,I asked for the note she had in her hands.Frozen,she refused to give it to me.I waited,all attention in the room on the quiet battle between teacher and student.When she finally handed it over,saying,“Okay,but I didn't draw it,” which showed this wasn't just an ordinary note being passed.
After getting the class going on an English reading test,I finally had a chance to look through it.It was a hand-drawn picture of me,eyes monitoring widely,teeth blackened,and the words “I'm stupid” coming out of my mouth.There was no doubt about who it was supposed to be.
I managed to fold up the picture calmly.My mind,however,was working angrily and wanting to criticize some students on the scene.I figured I knew the two most likely candidates for drawing the picture.Maybe it was high time that I did it!
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1:
Thankfully,calmness returned to my mind.
Paragraph 2:
Looking over the notes later,I realized I was too strict with them.
[参考范文]
Paragraph 1:
Thankfully,calmness returned to my mind.Suppressing my pride,I showed them the picture.The whole class was silent as I told them how hurtful this was for a teacher.Struggling to control my emotion,I demanded there must be a reason behind for such a picture and that now was their chance to tell me anything they needed to tell me.Asking them to get out of paper and write silently,I sniffled in the back of the classroom.
Paragraph 2:
Looking over the notes later,I realized I was too strict with them.Where I thought I was driving them to success,I was actually driving them away.After class,the girl walked up,handing me a card embarrassedly.One side of the card was sincere regret for the ugly joke while the other side the appeal for forgiveness.I was deeply moved.Meanwhile,a great sense of guilt arose for being too harsh.After all,students appreciate being appreciated,for teachers' encouragement is their best motivating force.
