Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi. One time, I was called at midnight to pick someone up. When I arrived, the building was completely dark except for one light in a window.
I walked to the door and knocked.After a long wait, the door opened. A small woman in her 80s stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.
“Would you carry my bag out to the car?” she said. I took her suitcase and gave her my arm. We walked slowly to the street. She kept thanking me for my kindness.
“It’s nothing,” I told her. “I try to treat my passengers how I want my mother treated.”
“You’re such a good boy,” she said. When we got in the taxi, she gave me an address. Then she asked, “Could you drive through the downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered.
“I don’t mind,” she said. “I’m in no hurry. I’m on my way to a hospice (临终安养院).”
The words caught me by surprise. I saw her eyes shining with tears.
“I don’t have any family left,” she continued. “The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly turned off the meter. “What road do you want me to take?” I asked.
For hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked. We drove through the neighbourhood where she and her husband had lived. Sometimes she asked me to just slow down while she sat staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
As the sun was coming up, she suddenly said, “I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
We drove in silence to the hospice. As we pulled up, two nurses were waiting for us. They helped her into a wheelchair.
“How much do I owe you?” she asked me, reaching for her purse.

One possible version-1:
“You don’t owe me anything,” I said. She looked at me in surprise, her eyes filled with tears. “Then let me thank you properly,” she whispered. Before I could respond, she reached out and held my hand tightly. For a moment, neither of us spoke. Then I leaned down and gave her a gentle hug. She smiled warmly and said that our drive had allowed her to revisit some of the happiest memories of her life. As the nurses wheeled her away, she waved at me until she disappeared through the door. (85 words)
After returning to my taxi, I sat there for a long time. The morning sun was rising, yet I could hardly start the engine. My thoughts remained with the old woman and the stories she had shared. What seemed like an ordinary taxi ride had become something far more meaningful. I realized that people often need understanding more than anything else. A little patience, a kind word, or simply being present can brighten someone’s darkest day. Since then, whenever I help others, I remember that unforgettable night and the lesson it taught me. (81 words)
One possible version-2:
“You don’t owe me anything,” I said. The old woman stared at me for a second and then smiled. “You have already given me more than money could buy,” she said softly. She explained that she had feared spending her last journey alone, but our conversation had eased her loneliness. Deeply moved, I wished her peace and happiness. She gently squeezed my hand before the nurses guided her inside. Watching her disappear into the building, I felt an unexpected sadness mixed with gratitude for having met her. (80 words)
After returning to my taxi, I sat there for a long time. The city was slowly waking up, but everything around me seemed unusually quiet. I kept thinking about how precious every human connection can be. We often rush through life without noticing the people around us, yet small acts of kindness may leave a lasting impact. That night taught me that greatness is not always found in dramatic events. Sometimes it appears in simple moments when we choose to care for another person. The memory has stayed with me ever since. (80 words)

The taxi ride I’ll never forget
Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi. One time, I was called at midnight to pick someone up. When I arrived, the building was completely dark except for one light in a window.
I walked to the door and knocked.After a long wait, the door opened. A small woman in her 80s stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.
“Would you carry my bag out to the car?” she said. I took her suitcase and gave her my arm. We walked slowly to the street. She kept thanking me for my kindness.
“It’s nothing,” I told her. “I try to treat my passengers how I want my mother treated.”
“You’re such a good boy,” she said. When we got in the taxi, she gave me an address. Then she asked, “Could you drive through the downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered.

“How much do I owe you?” she asked me, reaching for her purse.
“Nothing,” I said. Without thinking, I leaned down and gave her a hug. She hugged me tightly.
“You gave an old woman a little moment of joy,” she said. “Thank you.”
I squeezed her hand and then walked back to my taxi. For the rest of that day, I could hardly talk.
I believe I have never done anything more important in my life. We usually think that our lives are defined by great moments. But I now realise that great moments catch us by surprise, because they often seem quite small.

人教版必修第三册Unit 2 Workbook P70 The Taxi Ride I’ll Never Forget改编读后续写
教 学 设 计
这篇改编后的读后续写材料非常适合作为课堂教学案例。教师讲解时可以从语篇结构(Text Structure)、情节链(Plot Development)、情感线(Emotion Line)、主题意义(Theme)四个维度进行分析。
一、语篇结构分析
语篇类型:记叙文
特点:
(1)以第一人称叙述
(2)按时间顺序展开
(3)以事件发展推动情节
(4)通过人物对话表现情感
(5)最后揭示人生感悟
属于典型的“人与自我”主题之做人做事——优秀品行,正确的人生态度,公民义务与社会责任(参见《普通高中英语课程标准 日常修订版(2017年版2025年修订)》P12)
二、整体结构分析
本文采用典型高考读后续写常见结构:背景→冲突→发展→高潮→升华
可具体划分为五部分:
部分
内容
功能
Part 1
深夜接乘客
交代背景
Part 2
老妇人提出特殊请求
制造悬念
Part 3
城市告别之旅
情节发展
Part 4
到达临终安养院
情感高潮
Part 5
出租车司机感悟人生
主题升华
三、具体段落分析
Part 1 Background(背景铺垫)第一至四段:
出租车司机接到任务→深夜来到老旧公寓→见到老妇人
作用:
①交代人物——Driver,Old woman
②营造氛围——关键词:midnight,dark building,one light。形成安静、神秘、略带忧伤的氛围。
③埋下伏笔——老人:八十多岁,独自一人带着行李箱。
暗示:她即将离开这里。
Part 2 Conflict(冲突产生)——“Could you drive through downtown?”
内容:老妇人提出绕路要求。
司机发现:不是去普通目的地,而是去hospice (临终安养院)。
作用:设置核心矛盾
读者产生疑问:为什么不直接去?为什么绕路?为什么深夜出发?
形成故事驱动力:老妇人最后想做什么?
Part 3 Development(情节发展)——城市之旅
内容:老妇人——指着旧办公室,指着旧住所,回忆丈夫,默默凝视街景。这一部分是全文主体。
功能:回顾人生。实际上不是在看城市,而是在告别人生。
教师可引导学生发现:作者没有直接写She was saying goodbye to her life.而是通过“She showed me the building where she had once worked. We drove through the neighbourhood where she and her husband had lived. Sometimes she asked me to just slow down while she sat staring into the darkness, saying nothing.”间接表达。这也是高考续写优秀表达的重要特点。
Part 4 Climax(情感高潮)——到达hospice
内容:护士等待,老人下车,准备付款
此时出现最感人的冲突:老人要付费,但是司机拒绝收费
高潮原因:双方身份悬殊——陌生人,仅相识数小时,却建立了深刻情感联系。
课堂可提问:为什么司机不收费?
学生通常会得出:同情老人,尊重生命,善待他人……
Part 5 Theme(主题升华)——司机的反思
内容:司机久久无法离开。
开始思考:什么是真正重要的事。
揭示主题:
Great moments are often hidden in ordinary moments. 伟大的时刻往往隐藏在平凡之中。
四、情感发展线分析
课堂教学时非常重要。本文情感变化十分清晰,且呈现双线并进:
司机:平静→好奇→震惊→同情→感动→顿悟
老妇人:孤独→怀念→感激→释然→平静
五、伏笔与照应分析
这是续写预测的重要依据。
伏笔1——老妇人独自生活。对应:没有家人陪伴。
伏笔2——医生说时间不多。对应:临终前最后一次回忆人生。
伏笔3——司机关掉计价器。对应:后文拒绝收费。
伏笔4——老妇人不断感谢。对应:最后拥抱与告别。
六、读后续写情节预测
教师课堂可指导学生进行:
续写第一段 “You don’t owe me anything,” I said.
任务:解决现实情境
合理发展:老妇人惊讶→表达感谢→两人拥抱→老妇人进入安养院
关键词:gratitude,hug,tearful,goodbye
续写第二段After returning to my taxi, I sat there for a long time.
任务:升华主题
合理发展:回忆旅程→思考人生→感悟善意
关键词:kindness,connection,ordinary moments,meaningful life
七、主题意义(Theme)
本文核心主题:Kindness and Human Connection善意与人际关系
进一步升华:
Small acts of kindness can make a great difference. 微小善举能够产生巨大影响。
