Ⅲ.读后续写

(2020·浙江1月改编)

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。

“I’m going to miss you so much，Poppy，”said the tall，thin teenager.He bent down to hug his old friend goodbye.He stood up，hugged his parents，and smiled，trying not to let his emotions get the better of him.

His parents were not quite able to keep theirs under control.They had driven their son several hours out of town to the university where he would soon be living and studying.It was time to say goodbye for now at least.The family hugged and smiled through misty eyes and then laughed.

The boy lifted the last bag onto his shoulder，and flashed a bright smile.“I guess this is it，” he said，“I’ll see you back home in a month，okay？” His parents nodded，and they watched as he walked out of sight into the crowds of hundreds of students and parents.The boy’s mother turned to the dog，“Okay，Poppy，time to go back home.”

The house seemed quiet as a tomb without the boy living there.All that week，Poppy didn’t seem interested in her dinner，her favorite toy，or even in her daily walk.Her owners were sad too，but they knew their son would be back to visit.Poppy didn’t.

They offered the dog some of her favorite peanut butter treats.They even let her sit on the sofa，but the old girl just wasn’t her usual cheerful self.Her owners started to get worried.“What should we do to cheer Poppy up？” asked Dad.“We’ve tried everything.”

“I have an idea，but it might be a little crazy，” smiled Mom.“Without anybody left in the house but us，this place could use a bit of fun.Let’s get a little dog for Poppy.”

It didn’t take long before they walked through the front door carrying a big box.Poppy welcomed them home as usual，but when she saw the box，she stopped.She put her nose on it.Her tail began wagging(摆动) ever so slowly，then faster as she caught the smell.

注意：续写词数应为150左右。

Dad put the box on the ground and opened the top.

A few weeks later，the boy arrived home from university.                             

参考范文

Dad put the box on the ground and opened the top.A shiny little wet nose popped up.Then two fluffy paws.Next the box tipped over sideways，and out tumbled a mass of wiggly golden silliness.Poppy was amazed.She wagged furiously.She barked with joy.She smiled，her tongue lolling out as she investigated the surprise.The little pup was not shy and immediately started yipping and jumping around the older dog.“That didn’t take long，” remarked Mom，as both dogs went roaring around the house in an impromptu game of chase.Dad laughed.

A few weeks later，the boy arrived home from university.He had missed Poppy and was looking forward to seeing her.When he bent down to give her a big hug，he fell over in surprise as a small golden cloud came racing up to lick his face too.“Oh my gosh，who is this？” he exclaimed.His parents laughed at the look of shock on his face.“That’s Pee-wee，” said Dad.“I can’t believe you got yourselves a puppy！” “We didn’t，” replied Mom.“This puppy is for Poppy！”
