As the snow came down more and more heavily,Emily was directed off the highway.She drove on for a while and found herself on an unfamiliar road toward a Canadian town. The blinding whiteout made driving nearly impossible.At one point,Emily's car got stuck.After a struggle,she managed to free the vehicle and continued inching along the snow-covered road.As night fell,panic set in.While Emily was driving on a narrow stretch of road,her car slid into a ditch ()She tried to call for help but found no signal on her phone.Seeing no hope of immediate rescue,Emily decided to spend the night in her car.She wrapped herself in a blanket,waiting for morning.To stay warm,she ran her engine for a few minutes every now and then.Eventually,she fell asleep. Emily awoke to a gentle knock on her car window.Standing outside were Daniel and his wife Rachel, who noticed the stranded vehicle on their way home and stopped to see if they could help.When Emily rolled down the window,Rachel asked if she was okay and told her it was not safe to stay overnight in the car.With genuine warmth in her voice,Rachel said they could take Emily to a nearby cafe they knew.Grateful and relieved,Emily accepted the offer. In the cafe,the couple bought Emily a hot chocolate and listened patiently as she explained her desperate situation:she was about a hundred miles from her destination,her car was completely stuck,and her entire holiday plan could be ruined. Daniet and Rachet suggested that Emily continue her journey by train.Hearing this,Emily's eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope,yet she quickly frowned,worrying about her stranded car and the complicated arrangements.Sensing her anxiety,Rachel gently patted her shoulder- and assured her that they would take care of everything.With Daniel's help,Emily managed to book a ticket for the next available train.Before 第1页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 seeing her off at the station,the couple thoughtfully gave her a warm- scarf and a handwritten note with their contact information,urging her to let them know when she arrived safely.Touched by their kindness, Emily boarded the train with heartfelt gratitude:The journey,though long,was smooth,and she finally reunited with her boyfriend on- Christmas Eve,the joy of the moment overshadowing all the previous hardships. -----Three days later,Emily returned to get her car.To her great surprise,she found that Daniet and Rachel had already contacted a local towing service and had her car pulled out of the ditch.Not only- that,but they had also arranged for it to be temporarily parked at a safe garage near their home:Overwhetmed with emotion,Emily went- 第2页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 to their house to express her sincere thanks.Rachel smiled warmly and said it was their pleasure to help a traveler in need.Deeply moved by their selflessness,Emily insisted on treating them to a dinner as a small token of appreciation.During the meal,they shared stories and-- laughter,and Emily realized that this unexpected twist had given her something more precious than a smooth trip---a lasting friendship born out of a snowstorm. 2026年6月全国2卷 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。 As far as I can remember,I've always been a night owl.Even in middle school I would stay up very late.I would feel completely at ease doing my homework in bed,with light music on.I found comfort in keeping myself awake when everyone else had gone to bed,and I loved the silence of the night.My parents urged me to get out of this so-called unhealthy habit,but their repeated requests fell on deaf ears. Fast forward to my first year of college.I still loved the night and would stay up until unruly hours for no apparent reason,chatting online and watching videos.When I finally started to study,I would race through the assigned work,often well past midnight.My roommates would tell me to go to bed and get up early the following morning to do it instead.Get up early to do my homework?No way!I would never do that. Then,one day last term,I did exactly that.Bent over my laptop while sitting on the bed in the corner of my room,I suddenly felt a pounding headache,and had to lie down.Unable to keep my eyes open,I decided I had no choice but to finish my homework the next morning.I woke up at 6 am.Hardly had I written half a page when I felt a sharp pain in my chest. At the school clinic,a doctor,with a serious expression on his face,handed me a medical report. "You're 20,but your heart is 40!"he said.A cold wave went through me.I realized that years of living as a late-night person had turned my heart into an overworked engine. 第3页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 ----Struck by the doctor's warning,I knew I had to make a change. Never before had 1 felt such a strong sense of urgency to break my late-night routine.The medical report,with its cold figures,became a constant reminder that my youthfut body was not invincible. Determined to reverse the damage,1set a strict bedtime at 10:30 pm and placed my phone far from my pillow,so that would not be tempted to scrolt through social media:To my surprise,the first few mornings, when the alarm rang at 6 am,1 felt refreshed rather than exhausted.1 even started to enjoy the quiet morning hours,sipping warm water and reviewing notes before the campus bustled with noise.It was the-- discipline,not the punishment,that gradually rebuilt my energy. Slowly but surely,my efforts to adjust to the new routine paid off. 第4页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 After a month,my chest pains disappeared,and my heart rate returned to normal during the follow=up check.More importantly,1 found my- academic performance improved,as my mind was sharper in the morning classes and 1 no longer raced against midnight deadlines.My roommates,once worried,now praised my glowing complexion and-- steady mood.Looking back,1 realize that the real night owl wisdom lies not in staying awake,but in rising early with purpose.With a healthier heart and a clearer schedule,I have finally learned that respecting nature's clock is the greatest act of self-care. 2026年1月浙江首考卷 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。 On a sunny Saturday afternoon,I was driving my daughter to her weekly swimming lesson.As we came to a heavily traveled street,we saw an unusual procession approaching:a bony,wild-eyed cow followed by many cars,and boys on bicycles and on foot. "That poor cow!"I said angrily."Those ignorant city people are frightening her." At that time,my daughter,aged nine,believed that her papa was equal to any crisis."What are you going to do?"she asked. "See that piece of rope around her neck?"I said."After I leave you at the swimming center,I'll go back and catch her and hold her for her owner,who's probably trying to find her."Having milked cows as a boy and worked with beef cattle,I knew-so I thought-all about cows. 第5页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 (接上文) 六.-LatarTlcamcdiaitispgriciarcowhadcoimefomatieastsoveamilesawayandomhcwa,iad knocked down several people.She had passed a baseball field,breaking up the game and flattening the umpire (in passing.In brief,ruins lay behind her.The crowd was not following her with intent to harm her,but merely to see what she would do next. I left my daughter at the swimming center,circled back and found the cow standing at the grassy edge of a side street,breathing heavily.The crowd surrounded her-at a respectful distance.I parked my car, pitying their ignorance,walked up to the cow in what the onlookers assumed to be a fearless manner. She watched me narrowly as I approached,turning her head to view me with one big eye,then the other.At thirty feet from her I have a slight hesitation,at twenty a serious doubt.At ten feet I stopped and realized the truth.Here was a cow foreign to my experience.Driven completely crazy,she was ready to charge anything that moved. As t was about to turn and run,two policemen arrived.Jumping out of their patrol car with tranquilizer guns in hand,they quickly assessed the situation“Step back,sir,”one of them shouted.“this cow has--= already injured severat people.*What happened next was beyond my wildest imagination.instead of charging,the cow suddenly collapsed- to the ground,exhausted from her long and destructive journey:The policemen skillfully approached her,and within minutes,they managed to stip a stronger rope around her neck.Turning to me,one officer asked, "You look like you know something about cattle.Can you give us a- 第6页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 hand?"Though still trembling inside,I nodded,determined not to lose- face in front of my daughter--who was,thankfulty,safe at her- swimming tesson. -We tied the rope around the tree and began to discuss what to do with the cow.Having witnessed her crazed behavior,t no longer- considered myself an expert-"She's too wild to be led anywhere,"1 admitted*We need to find her owner."Just then,an otd farmer came- running down the street,out of breath and waving his arms."That's my Bessie!"he cried-"She got toose this morning."With the immediate crisis resolved,the farmer gently calmed the cow while explaining that she had never acted so violently before--likely frightened by city- noises.As he led her away,1let out a deep sigh of relief No longer did- 第7页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 1 consider myself equat to every crisis,but at that moment,1 was simply grateful that no one got hurt,and that my nine-year=old daughter still believed her papa could face anything-even when he couldn't. 2025年6月全国1卷 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 wife and I wanted to share our new home with family and friends by hosting a small gathering in the early summer.She had prepared lots of snacks,while my job was to have the backyard in order. There was plenty of space for the kids to run and play.There was just one thing I hadn't counted on: My brother chose to bring his dog Toby,a 50-pound ball of fire.Though friendly,he could easily knock over my niece's small boys and my six-month-old granddaughter.So,when my brother showed up,I asked him to watch Toby and keep him outside. My plan was working out just fine.Toby was using up his energy by running back and forth in the backyard and giving the kids plenty of room.Unexpectedly,after supper,the weather changed.It started to rain and everyone went indoors. It was an awkward moment.I didn't want Toby to be running around in the house,and my brother wasn't happy with driving home with a wet dog.Eventually,my brother decided to leave rather than force the issue. A few days passed,and I hadn't heard anything from my brother.I texted him and expressed wishes for him to come out again.His reply came as a surprisea shock,actually:"Not a chance."Clearly,he was unhappy over the way we had parted.After all,I had left him little choice.Well,he'll get over it,I reasoned. Two months passed.My wife suggested I get in touch with my brother,but I resisted,thinking he should call first.However,my conscience (kept bothering me.I tried to put myself in my brother's shoes.He was facing health issues and his wife of thirty-five years had passed away a few months earlier.

The pronunciation system of the Chinese language is quite different from that of English.For native speakers of English,some Chinese words are rather difficult to pronounce.My given name Qiuyu ) for instance,happened to be a great challenge for many of them.Every time I gave a self-introduction,I had to explain how to pronounce my name at least five times,yet they still could not say it the way I did. Once in a lecture,the professor tried repeating my name after me over and over in front of thirty classmates.I really did not know whether I should continue correcting him or simply drop the matter.I feared that my classmates might grow tired of my efforts or even lose patience with me.After all,I did care about how others would think of me.I realized that if I didn't stop,the entire lecture would be ruined. "It's okay,professor,"I shrugged ()The awkward moment ended with the class erupting into laughter.I forced a smile,unsure how to respond further. After that incident,I stopped acting as a "Chinese teacher."Instead of correcting others when they were struggling to pronounce my name,I just smiled and nodded approvingly.This approach spared me the discomfort of having to over-explain.However,I soon found that by doing so,I might be losing something more important:the opportunity to share a small part of my cultural identity. -In a class discussion,I was invited to explain the meaning of my name.Recalling the prior uncomfortable incident in the lecture,1 hesitated for a moment,but then explained that Qiu"means Autumn and“Yu”means Rain.土added that“aigu”(Autumn Rain)often--= carries a feeling of gentle beauty and quiet thought in Chinese culture. Unlike before,the professor listened with genuine interest,and my- 第10页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 classmates leaned in,their expressions showing curiosity,not boredom. It felt different this time,exptaining my name wasn't a difficult pronunciation lesson,but an opportunity to share a piece of my identity.Their warm smiles and appreciative nods made me feel understood,sparking further interest among them. Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after- class.Their inquiries extended beyond mere pronunciation,they delved deeper into the name's narrative and explored other facets of Chinese culture.Instead of feeling the need to just smile and nod approvingly,I felt comfortable answering their questions patiently.The earlier fear of being judged or causing inconvenience simply disappeared during our friendly chat.1 realized that embracing these moments wasn't 第11页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 tosing politeness but gaining connection and understanding.From then on,I perceived my name less as a challenge for others and more as a bridge to share my culturat background with new friends.-- ★2025年1月浙江首考卷 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。 Kevin was pretty bored.His mother was at work,and his father had been away on business.

Mrs.Hill was asleep.Kevin sighed (and hoped something exciting would happen.Suddenly,a movement outside caught his eye.

The man froze for a second,but when he saw the skinny boy he breathed a sigh of relief."Hey,kid, put that down.It was my home.My parents used to live here and my father's watch was here,"he explained,trying to lift a floorboard. At that moment,the sounds of a police car echoed in the air.The man stood up in a panic,then ran through the house toward the window and jumped out.Kevin followed out and told the arriving police officers what had happened.They pursued and arrested the man. Kevin went back to Mrs.Hill's house.Somehow he wasn't sure he had done the right thing."What if he has told the truth?"he thought to himself.The man's words sounded pretty convincing.

That was when I met Gunter.I told him where I was going,but he said he hadn't heard of the bus station.I thought my pronunciation was the problem,so I explained again more slowly,but he still looked confused.When I was about to give up,Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend.After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century,Gunter put his phone down and started the car. Finally,with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station.Thankfully,there was a long queue (still waiting to board the bus.Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus,turned around,and looked at me with a big smile on his face."We made it."he said. 第14页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 ★2024年6月新1/2卷（接上文） Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet.I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard.He tried it several times,but the card machine just did not play along.A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out.At this moment,Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station.There,at the entrance,was a cash machine.I jumped out of the car,made a mad run for the machine,and popped my card in,only to read the message:"Out of order.

Somewhere in the building,there was also a library,a cafeteria,and a gym. Having a poor sense of direction,Eva found it impossible to get around in such a huge building.All the different hallways and rooms were too much to think about,let alone commit to memory.She decided that she would memorize where her classes were and then pretend that the rest of the place didn't exist. In her first PE class,Eva was shocked when Coach Pitt announced that everyone had to run one mile around the track outside.She searched the faces of her classmates for signs of panic.There was nothing she feared more than having to run a whole mile.To Eva,"a mile"was used to describe long distances.It was ten miles from her home to her grandfather's,and that always seemed like a long way,even in a car! When Coach Pitt blew his whistle ()Eva figured she would be left in the dust.However,while some of her classmates edged ahead,others actually fell behind."It's just the beginning,"she thought."I'll come in last for sure..” Soon Eva began to breathe hard,with her heart pounding and legs shaking.Feeling desperate,Eva started using a mind trick on herself.She stopped thinking about the word"mile".Instead,she focused on reaching the shadow cast on the track by an oak tree up ahead.Then she concentrated on jogging to the spot where the track curved )After that,she tried to see if she could complete her first lap.One lap turned into two,then three,then four. --When Coach Pitt said "Nice work!"to her at the finish line,Eva was surprised.She glanced back at the track,still catching her breath, hardly believing that her legs had carried her through the entire mile. It was not until that moment that she realized the power of breaking a 第17页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 seemingly impossible task into bite-sized pieces.The oak tree's shadow, the curved spot,the first lap-each tiny milestone had distracted her from the overwhelming distance,turning panic into progress.A surge of confidence washed over her,as if a door had opened in her mind.if-- she could conquer the mile by focusing on the nearest target,why couldn't the same trick work for the six-story maze of hallways and- rooms?With that thought,she smiled and made a silent promise to herself Eva decided to use the same trick to deal with the school building. Instead of memorizing the entire floor plan at once,she divided the building into zones:the first floor for the library and cafeteria,the second for her math and English classrooms,and so on.Fach day,she 第18页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 would explore only one zone,paying close attention to landmarks like- the water fountain,the large window,or the poster on the walt.Step by step,the chaotic map in her head began to take shape.What had- once terrified her now became a manageable puzzle.By the end of the first month,she could navigate from the gym to the science lab without hesitation,and even help lost freshmen find their way Eva learned that every great chatlenge,when broken down,is nothing more than a series of small,achievable steps--and that courage,after all,is not the absence of fear,but the decision to move forward one step at a time. ★2023年6月新1/2卷 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。 When I was in middle school,my social studies teacher asked me to enter a writing contest,I said no without thinking.I did not love writing.My family came from Brazil,so English was only my second language.Writing was so difficult and painful for me that my teacher had allowed me to present my paper on the sinking of the Titanic by acting out a play,where I played all the parts.No one laughed harder than he did. So,why did he suddenly force me to do something at which I was sure to fail?His reply:"Because I love your stories.If you're willing to apply yourself,I think you have a good shot at this."Encouraged by his words,I agreed to give it a try.

She was covered in spider-webs and was barely able to move her wings.She ceased her struggle the instant I picked her up. With the bird in my cupped hand,I looked around to see how she had gotten in.The broken window glass was the likely answer.I stuffed a piece of cloth into the hole and took her outside,closing the door securely behind me. When I opened my hand,the bird did not fly away;she sat looking at me with her bright eyes.I removed the sticky spider-webs that covered her head and wings.Still,she made no attempt to fly.Perhaps she had been struggling against the window too long and was too tired?Or too thirsty? As I carried her up the blackberry-lined path toward my car where I kept a water bottle,she began to 第21页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 ★2023年1月浙江首考卷（接上文） move.I stopped,and she soon took wing but did not immediately fly away.

I looked around and finally spotted David,who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence.He was small for ten years old.His usual big toothy smile was absent today.I walked over and asked him why he wasn't with the other children.He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run. What was wrong?He had worked so hard for this event! I quickly searched the crowd for the school's coach and asked him what had happened."I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him,"he explained uncomfortably."I gave him the choice to run or not,and let him decide." 第23页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 ★2022年6月新1/2卷（接上文） I bit back my frustration ()I knew the coach meant well-he thought he was doing the right thing.After making sure that David could run if he wanted,I turned to find him coming towards me,his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward. David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children,but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular kid.He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing.That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team.It just took him longer-that's all.David had not missed a single practice,and although he always finished his run long after the other children,he did always finish.As a special education teacher at the school,I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination. We sat down next to each other,but David wouldn't look at me.1- gently put my hand on his shoulder and said,"David,1 know you've trained harder than anyone else.You've never missed a single practice, and you always finish what you start.That takes more courage than winning.He lifted his head slightly,his eyes still fixed on the ground.

As they came in my direction,I put on my brightest and happiest smile:And then,I began to distribute hamburgers with the meat,which were badly in need,with a little nervousness.But to my great relief those homeless were in a quiet well-ordered queue,waiting for the food to be delivered.So hungry were some that they began to eat the- food after getting it,while some just took it away.What moved me 第26页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 most was that t received hundreds of friendly thanks.Indeed,one couldn't be judged by his clothes.All in all,my community service went smoothly. twas so happy that I had earned my service hours in this way.It- was worth spending the time at the soup kitchen,not only for myself but for those special people in life.What I got was a precious experience of a deep dip into society,learning more about people living in the bottom,who might fall into trouble for different reasons.1 strongly felt it our duty to do something to comfort and inspire them for a good tife.That was why the lady and thad a decision to organize- another charity group for better community services. ★2022年1月浙江首考 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。 When Dr.Gullickson was assigning project mates for his introduction to experimental psychology class,I secretly hoped he would pair me with my best friend or at least a classmate I could have some fun 第27页共42页 衡水体英文字帖一一高考英语读后续写真题范文 ★2022年1月浙江首考接上文) with.Above all,I hoped he wouldn't assign me to work with the intense,fiercely competitive,singularly serious fellow who always wore dark clothes and apparently had a personality to match.As fate would have it,Dr.Gullickson very deliberately matched everyone in class and announced that I would be working with the one person in class I wanted to avoid. I went up to my new teammate and introduced myself.He looked at me as though I weren't there.I felt he treated me as though I would hold him back and probably cause his grade-point average to take a nosedive.He wasn't outright mean or abusive.He just gave me the impression he could do whatever project we dreamed up better if he did it alone.

The project required each lab team to develop a hypothesis ()set up an experiment to test the hypothesis,run the tests,do the statistical analysis and present the findings.Whatever grade the team received would be shared by both students.

The big day came at last.The alarm rang at 6 a.m.The pair went down the stairs quietly to the kitchen.They decided to boil the porridge first.They put some rice into a pot of water and left it to boil while they made the French toast.Jeff broke two eggs into a plate and added in some milk.Jenna found the bread and put two slices into the egg mixture.Next,Jeff turned on the second stove burner to heat up the frying pan.Everything was going smoothly until Jeff started frying the bread.The pan was too hot and the bread turned black within seconds.Jenna threw the burnt piece into the sink and put in the other slice of bread.This time,she turned down the fire so it cooked nicely. Then Jeff noticed steam shooting out of the pot and the lid starting to shake.The next minute,the porridge boiled over and put out the fire.Jenna panicked.Thankfully,Jeff stayed calm and turned off the gas quickly.But the stove was a mess now.Jenna told Jeff to clean it up so they could continue to cook the rest of the porridge.But Jeffs hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain.Jenna made him put his hand in cold water.Then she caught the smell of burning.

The summer before my eighth grade I was one of a group of boys that a neighboring farmer hired to work in his field.He explained our basic task,the tractor fired up and we were off,riding down the field looking for weeds to spray with chemicals.After a short way,the farmer stopped and pointed at a weed which we missed.Then we began again.This happened over and over,but we soon learned to identify different grasses like cockleburs,lamb's-quarters,foxtails,and the king of weeds,the pretty purple thistle.

This year,it was hard to tell whether my prize or the one chosen by my 14-year-old brother,Jason, was the winner.Unfortunately we forgot to weigh them before taking out their insides,but I was determined to prove my point.All of us were hard at work at the kitchen table,with my mom filming the annual event.I'm unsure now why I thought forcing my head inside the pumpkin would settle the matter, but it seemed to make perfect sense at the time. With the pumpkin resting on the table,hole uppermost,I bent over and pressed my head against the opening.At first I got jammed just above my eyes and then,as I went on with my task,unwilling to quit, my nose briefly prevented entry.Finally I managed to put my whole head into it,like a cork ( forced into a bottle.I was able to straighten up with the huge pumpkin resting on my shoulders. My excitement was short-lived.The pumpkin was heavy."I'm going to set it down,now,"I said,and with Jason helping to support its weight,I bent back over the table to give it somewhere to rest.It was only when I tried to remove my head that I realized getting out was going to be less straightforward than getting in.When I pulled hard,my nose got in the way.I got into a panic as I pressed firmly against the table and moved my head around trying to find the right angle,but it was no use."Ican't get it out!"I shouted,my voice sounding unnaturally loud in the enclosed space. -t was stuck for five or six minutes though it felt much longer.
