专题02直击2022高考英语 专项突破“读后续写”--生活故事生活平凡中有不平凡，简单中有不简单，生活中的故事每日上演……01阅读下面短文，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。“Be sure to hang the decorations high,” said Polly, my stepmom. “Jake might mistake the colorful glass balls for his toys and try to bite them,” Jake was new to our family that Christmas. He was a beautiful brown-and-white dog. And, of course, he was loaded with the curiosity that made everything a toy.Two weeks before Christmas, we brought out the boxes of decorations, many of which had been in Polly’s family for ages. Among them was a special box that held an entire gingerbread family (姜饼人). They were real cookies, hung with red ribbons (丝带) and made many years earlier.Every now and then, I or one of my little sisters—Ruth and Sue—would pretend we were going to eat one, knowing that Polly would say, “You’ll break a tooth! They’re so old that they’re rock-hard.” We didn’t really want to eat them, but we enjoyed making fun of Polly.Since we didn’t know how Jake would react to the decorations or the Christmas tree, we were careful to put the decorations up high. Jake sniffed (嗅) the tree a lot. Those first couple of days, Polly caught him starting to lift a leg on the tree twice. But he learned quickly and settled for sniffing from a distance.The weekend before Christmas, Dad and Polly took us to watch the new holiday movie. Excited, we jumped into the car with bags of home-made popcorn, and off we went for a great evening.A few hours later, we returned home, only to find...a terrible mess. It wasn’t the Christmas tree. In fact, we weren’t sure what it was. We stood just inside the door staring at the mess. As it turned out, it was Jake’s bed, which he’d destroyed. Left alone for the first time, he must have gotten bored, attacked it and left it for dead. We didn’t know that the bed was not the only victim.注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。The next morning, we girls were playing in the living room when Ruth let out a sudden cry._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________“It wasn’t me,” I said, in case anybody thought I’d had a midnight snack of rock-hard decorations._________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】One possible version:The next morning, we girls were playing in the living room when Ruth let out a sudden cry. “Hey, who broke Gingerbread Baby?” Ruth asked. That brought Polly to the living room fast. “Where? Show me!” Ruth pointed at the former baby cookie, which was now just a head, still tied to the tree by its red ribbon. “Here’s another broken one,” said Sue. It’s Gingerbread Grandpa. Or it was. Now it’s just his head and hat. That caused some inspection, and soon it was clear that all the gingerbread men were now just gingerbread heads.“It wasn’t me,” I said, in case anybody thought I’d had a midnight snack of rock-hard decorations. Quickly, my sisters made denials of their own. Then we girls and Polly all looked at Jake. Until that moment, Jake had been sitting by Dad, looking happy as ever. Suddenly, his posture changed. Guilt spread over his face. With his head bowed a little, he tried not to meet Polly’s eyes, but it was clear what had happened. It was as if he were wearing a sign that said, “I killed an entire gingerbread family.”【解析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者家在圣诞节期间的有趣故事。刚刚来的家里的小狗Jake对一切都充满好奇，尽管在装饰圣诞树的时候，一家人把装饰品挂的很高，以防被Jake破坏，但是最后在一家人外出的时候，Jake还是毁掉许多圣诞装饰，甚至包括多年来作为装饰的姜饼饼干。【详解】1.段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“第二天早上，我们两个女孩在客厅里玩耍，Ruth突然叫了一声。”可知，第一段可描写Jake造成的其它破坏，特别是毁掉了姜饼装饰品。②由第二段首句内容“‘不是我，’我说，以防有人以为我吃了一些坚硬的装饰品。”可知，第二段可描写作者和姐妹都否认是自己做的这些事情，最后真相大白，这些都是Jake毁掉的。2.续写线索：发现姜饼装饰被破坏——一家人的反应——孩子们都否认是自己做的——真相大白——Jake的反应3.词汇激活行为类①.导致：cause/lead to/result in ②.否认：make denials/deny③.突然：suddenly/all at once/ abruptly情绪类①.快乐：happy/joyful/pleased/delighted【点睛】[高分句型1].

I had looked forward to it for a long time and had already prepared two of my best songs. My mom had a wonderful idea, however, to turn this disappointing letdown into something worthwhile. “You can perform your songs at Carriage House Senior Living,” my mom suggested brightly. “I’m sure the seniors there who do not have families visit them that often, would really appreciate the music and you could play more than just two songs.” I immediately thought this was a great idea. One of the things I did not like about the recitals was that I was limited to playing just a couple of songs. Playing the piano at Carriage House seemed like a win-win situation because not only would I get to play more songs, but I would also have the chance to cheer up the residents there with some lively tunes.My mom called Carriage House and made arrangements for me to perform. In the coming days, I worked especially hard to polish up fifteen pieces that I thought the crowd would enjoy, including many old classics. When the much-anticipated day finally arrived, my family and I drove to Carriage House. Walking through the enormous double doors, we stepped into an entryway that overlooked the spacious grand dining room. Right at the entrance to the dining room stood the piano as if it were just waiting to make some music to liven the place up a bit. At nearly every table several gray-haired women or men were seated enjoying their dinner and the company that the crowded room provided. Despite the conversations going on at various tables though, isolation hung like a dark cloud in the room. Almost immediately, we were greeted by an old woman with a walker who introduced herself as Phyllis in charge of Carriage House. She welcomed me and led me to the stage.注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。As I sat down on the bench, I pressed a key on the piano and was surprised to hear no sound. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Nervousness melted away and I started to enjoy the performance with the old. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】As I sat down on the bench, I pressed a key on the piano and was surprised to hear no sound. Feeling as if the whole world was watching me, I was struck dead with embarrassment. How could I perform the song without the piano? I was on pins and needles when Phyllis slowly made her way to the front of the crowd of dinners and announced in a comforting tone, “This girl has come to sing for us but the piano seems to be a little nervous.” Almost immediately, there was scattered applause and several people stepped forward to help me plug in the piano and set the microphone. With everything ready, I took a deep breath and commenced my performance.Nervousness melted away and I started to enjoy the performance with the old. One woman got up and began to animatedly dance about the room. Some of the people swayed in their chairs to the beat of the music while others tapped theirs toes. The performance ended up with a storm of applause from the crowd. I realized that it was far better than a piano recital because almost everyone seemed to truly appreciate my music and I’ m proud that I have the power to spread kindness to them. It ended up being a blessing in disguise that the recital was canceled, leading to me sharing the gift of music with those who needed it most.【解析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者喜欢弹钢琴，也非常喜欢表演自己的歌曲，所以当年度冬季独奏会被取消时，作者很失望。然而，妈妈提议去 Carriage House为老年人表演时，作者欣然同意并为之积极的做准备。【详解】1.段落续写：由第一段首句内容“当我坐在长凳上时，我按下了钢琴的一个键，奇怪的是没有听到任何声音。”可知，第一段可描写作者表演时发现钢琴没有声音的内心的紧张以及问题解决后大家对作者的鼓励。由第二段首句内容“紧张的情绪消失了，我开始喜欢上了和老人一起的表演。”可知，第二段可描写作者的演奏给老人带来的快乐和作者的感受。2.续写线索：演出时钢琴出问题——紧张不已——老人鼓励——紧张消失——融入音乐——感悟3.词汇激活行为类①表演：perform /show②.宣布：announce /declare情绪类①.尴尬：embarrassment /awkward②.紧张的：nervous /intense/ be on pins and needles【点睛】 [高分句型1].

The house was quiet, so he knew his parents were still sleeping. His mother had promised that they would go on a picnic in the park today. He had been looking forward to it all week. They would have yummy food to eat at the picnic. They would play catch and maybe fly a kite if the wind was strong. Adam thought maybe he should wake his parents up now.However, it still looked dark outside. Usually by now the sun was shining through the windows. Maybe it was cloudy, Adam thought. He went to his parents’ room and climbed onto their bed.“Hello!” said Adam, cheerfully. “It’s time to get up!” His mother yawned, rubbing her eyes. “Hi,” he whispered. “It’s too early. Let’s go back to sleep.” “But it’s morning. And you promised a picnic today!’ “Ugh,” said Mother. “I nearly forget it. Okay, let’s get up.”The small boy followed her downstairs. His mother went to the glass door that led to the backyard. “It’s raining!” She turned to her son. “Adam, it’s raining. We can’t go on a picnic today.”Adam’s lip began to shake. His eyes got misty. He sat down on the floor and held his chin (下巴) in his hands. This was not the news he wanted to hear.“I’m sorry,”said his mother. “Let’s get some snacks and watch some cartoons for a while.” They sat together on the couch. They snuggled (依偎)，and it was cozy. Half an hour later, his father listened to the bad news about the rain and the picnic. “Hmm,” he said. “Rain might spoil a picnic in the park, but it can also be fun sometimes. ”He finished his coffee and asked Adam to go find his raincoat and rubber boots. “Let’s go for a walk.”注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；2.至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；3.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好：4.续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。Paragraph 1:After putting on his yellow boots and rain coat, he followed his father into the rain.Paragraph 2:When they came back in, wet and happy, Adam’s mother said she had a surprise for them.【答案】After putting on his yellow boots and rain coat, he followed his father into the rain.

Thanks to a little determination, some luck, and a generous helping of Christmas Spirit, my dream became a reality.My family is Canadian, although my sister moved down to Australia a few years ago to study. She was graduating just before Christmas, but due to my own scholarly schedule back home, I would be unable to make it down in time for her graduation. She was understandably disappointed, and I felt guilty that I wasn’t able to be there for her on this special occasions.While I was talking to my professor the week before my sister’s graduation, she commented, “Well, if you want to go, just go ahead!" I couldn’t believe my luck! I nearly jumped for joy. “Just make sure you get permission from administrator (行政主管)，” she added. My heart sank. The administration at my school was infamous for denying any sort of time-off requests. I almost didn’t bother asking, because I knew it would be a waste of time. But something in me decided to try, just in case. Maybe it was the hope that the Christmas Spirit would somehow affects the administrator at this time of year. When I returned home to check the reply in my inbox, I steeled myself for disappointment. I held my breath, opened the e-mail, and started to read. And re-read, just to make sure I’d understood. Approval? I couldn’t believe my luck!Immediately, I called the airline. Unexpectedly, even during the busy Christmas season, I was able to change my ticket to arrive the day before my sister’s graduation. With news this fantastic, I was bursting to tell my sister. But, fingers on the dial((拨号盘), I paused. Wouldn’t it be much more fantastic if I could surprise her? What a state of shock she would be in! Slowly a great idea came to my mind. I decided a much more dramatic arrival than just a ring of the doorbell. What if I couldn’t arrive in a box?I started to plot.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________I, hidden in the big box, heard the mailmen ringing my sister’s doorbell.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】Paragraph 1:I started to plot. Then, a great idea occurred to me: getting delivered in a box to my sister’s house! I knew if I pulled this off, my grand arrival would be the best Christmas present I could ever give my sister. I frantically started Googling mail companies. Fortunately, I came across a mail company named Couriers Please and to my great amazement their manager agreed to help me to fulfill my dream! The next day, they found a box big enough for me to hide in. The Christmas Spirit strikes again! (86词)Paragraph 2:I, hidden in the big box, heard the mailmen ringing my sister’s doorbell. They announced they had a delivery for her. When the box was opened and she saw me sitting inside smiling up at her, my sister was at a complete loss for words and burst into tears.

There were various activities to keep everyone busy: swimming, fishing and building sand castle on the beach. In the evenings, we gathered on the beach, having great fun. However, by the third day of our vacation, I noticed my sister, Jane, spent most of her time watching videos and looking through online shops indoors. She was so addicted to her cell phone! Over dinner, I told Jane we would hike to the top of the mountain across the lake the following morning. I stared at her, “Put your phone away and enjoy the scenery. It's really amazing. ”“Well,” Jane shrugged (耸) her shoulders and answered unwillingly, “there are some bargains tomorrow in several online shops, so I'll not be available.”“Come out to enjoy the fresh air and many views. Hiking is fun!”“Sounds more like punishment than a vacation,” she didn't look up from her soup and mumbled (嘟囔), “I cannot walk that far. ”When I said it only took half an hour of steady walking to climb to the top, she nodded, “OK, I'll go.”The next morning was perfect for a hike, with sunny clear skies and gentle winds. I got up early and packed some sandwiches and bottles of water into my backpack along with the camera. Jane came slowly downstairs, and announced in a very unenthusiastic voice, “I'm ready to go, Jim.”Anyway, we stepped out of our cottage and quite a different view unfolded before our eyes. Against the blue skies, a rough path wound to the top of the mountain across the lake with wild flowers and grass on both sides. The sunlight brightened on the glassy surface of the lake. We began from the path. “I'm still wondering if this is a good idea, but if you could do it, I could also do.” She complained, frowning. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。She followed me, her mind wandering.                                                                      ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Reaching the top, Jane widened her eyes, shouting, “How awesome!”                           ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】She followed me, her mind wandering. Minutes later, we started to climb a steep slope. Jane sighed, dragging her legs behind me. I was surprised to find some rarely-seen trees and flowers, and took many photos but Jane showed no interest. She stopped and sat on a rock, thirsty, sweaty and bored. I handed her a bottle of water and we took a break. “I missed my phone,” she complained as we continued climbing. Though unhappy, she just climbed along with me. Reaching the top, Jane widened her eyes, shouting, “How awesome !” She looked around dreamily, her eyes twinkling with indescribably wild excitement. A refreshing breeze brushed the mountain top, miles of trees spread out below us and birds chirped between branches. We sat on a large rock and ate sandwiches, enjoying the sounds, the smells and the sunlight. “Anyone still wants her phone?” I joked. She rolled her eyes, laughing out loud. The next morning, Jane danced to my room, crying, “Let's hike around the lake today.” Sure, get our backpack then, I beamed, relieved and joyful.【解析】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲的是作者全家去湖边的一间小屋度假，他们都玩得很愉快，但是作者第三天发现他的妹妹Jane沉迷于手机，所以他决定让Jane和他一起出去爬山。【详解】1.段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“她跟着我，心不在焉”可知，第一段可描写Jane虽然同意和作者一起爬山，但是感觉爬山很累，不如玩手机有趣。②由第二段首句内容“登上山顶时，Jane睁大了眼睛，喊道：“太棒了！””可知，第二段可描写Jane到达山顶看到美景惊讶，从此爱上了户外活动。2.续写线索：Jane勉强同意外出爬山——途中，Jane抱怨这次爬山体验——到达山顶，Jane被美景征服——从此爱上户外活动3.词汇激活行为类①到达：reach /arrive at/get to②大叫：shout/ scream/yell/cry③休息一会儿：take a break/take a rest /have a rest情绪类①惊讶的： surprised /astonished/amazed②不高兴的：unhappy/ uncheerful/upset③高兴：delight/excitement【点睛】[高分句型1].

No way. ” I pulled Checkers from the basket. “ It’s not a cat. It’s a kitten. Can I keep him? Please?” Dad frowned for a minute, thinking. Then he rubbed Checkers under the chin. “You’ll have to take good care of him. ” I hugged Checkers. “I will,” I promised. “He won’t be any trouble at all. ”And Checkers wasn’t—until he grew into a cat. Sometimes he tripped Dad. “That cat!” Dad complained. Checkers climbed onto our roof. He had no trouble getting down. Usually he aimed for Dad. “That cat！”Dad yelled. Checkers flushed（冲水）the toilet，watching the water circle away. “That cat!”Dad groaned. Checkers hid in strange places. He liked to surprise people. One day he hid under the couch. Dad walked by with a glass of orange juice. Checkers jumped out. He curled（蜷缩）around Dad’s ankle and attacked Dad’s toes. Orange juice spilt all over the floor. “Get out, Cat!” Dad roared. And he slammed the door. Dad washed the scratches and peeled open bandages and wrapped them around his big toe and his ankle. I watched from the window. Checkers looked frustrated as he walked down the road. “I’m sorry. ” I said. “He was just playing. He didn’t mean to hurt you. ” “Don’t worry,” said Dad. “He will be back. ”After supper I called for Checkers. But Checkers didn’t come. Nighttime came. I called and called. But still no Checkers. I left the porch light on. But the next morning Checkers still wasn’t there. I carried a picture of Checkers to all the neighbors. But nobody found Checkers. Days went by.

The farmer smiled. “Good thing I saw that advertisement in the paper.” I looked at Dad “You put an ad in the paper?” As Checkers jumped up and down around Dad, he patted Checkers gently.
