高考英语阅读理解读后续写精读精炼（七）

一：原文重现

In 1945, a 12-year-old boy saw a beautiful brooch （胸针）in a shop window that set his heart racing. But the price—five dollars—was too high for Reuben Earle. Five dollars would buy almost a week's food for his family.

Reuben couldn’t ask his father for the money. Everything his father made through fishing went to his mother, Dora. Slim and beautiful, she was the center of the home and the glue that held it together. The housework was never-ending, and she struggled to feed and clothe their five children, but she was happy as her family and their well-being were all she cared about.

Nevertheless, he opened the shop's door and went inside. Standing proudly and straight in his flour-sack （面粉袋改做的）shirt and washed-out trousers, he told the shopkeeper what he wanted, adding, “But I don't have the money right now. Can you please hold it for me for some time?”

"I'll try,” the shopkeeper smiled. "People around here don't usually have that kind of money to spend on things. It should keep for a while."

Reuben respectfully touched his worn cap and walked out. He would raise the money and not tell anybody, for he thought Mum would get surprised when she saw that brooch. On hearing the sound of hammering （捶打）from a side street, Reuben suddenly had an idea that he could raise money by selling the used nail bags. People built their own homes in Bay Roberts, using nails bought in bags from a local factory. Sometimes the used bags were thrown away at the construction site, and Reuben knew he could sell them back to the factory for five cents a piece. That day he sold two nail bags and hid the money in a rusty soda tin.

二：文本解析

情节分析：本文主要讲述了一个小故事：12岁男孩Reuben想为自己的母亲买一枚胸针，可 手头没有足够的钱，他找到店主，店主答应为他保留一段时间，而Reuben开始捡钉子来筹 钱购买胸针。

续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：每天放学后，Reuben就开始他的计划。 本段开头提到Reuben已经开始进行筹钱计划，后文可以讲述他的筹钱过程以及最终结果， 可以具体描写一下筹钱过程中Reuben付出的努力。

第二段开头是：终于，是时候了！本段 开头暗示Reuben己经筹到了足够的钱，后文就可以描写他买下胸针的激动心情以及将胸针 送给母亲Dora的过程。另外，母亲收到胸针后开心、感动的反应也可以是描写的重点. 文章的主人公无疑是小男孩Reuben,但次要人物Dora是不能忽略的，需要通过妈妈来衬托 儿子。那么看看文章对妈妈的描述：

Slim and beautiful, she was the center of the home and the glue that held it together. The housework was never-ending, and she struggled to feed and clothe their five children, but she was happy as her family and their well-being were all she cared about.

如果结尾只是说妈妈很开心，就非常遗憾了，还必须和这个描写照应：对生活的乐观 和对孩子的热爱。

妈妈的开心：Wearing the beautiful brooch and knowing the story behind it, Dora was too overjoyed to utter a word.

妈妈的疼爱：She just threw her arms tightly around her beloved son.

对话： “Merry Christmas, mom"，  the son announced proudly. "You too."  the proud mother echoed.

主题升华：Well, no dream is out of reach for a willing heart.

Alex was very excited because the New Year Eve was approaching. Suddenly, he saw his grandfather sitting alone looking very unhappy.

Alex went to him and asked, “Grandpa, why are you sitting alone? Is there anything wrong with you?”

His grandfather replied, “No, I am fine. I just feel like sitting alone.”

“Grandpa, you know the New Year is near, so are you preparing for it?” asked Alex excitedly.

“No dear, I am not. With the passage of time, the world has completely changed and I don’t see any point in celebrating the world I see today,” answered his grandfather disappointedly.

“I know something is wrong with you and you are not telling me. Please tell me what the problem is.” Alex said.

“I feel I am a stranger in the world I am living in. It is not the same as I have known. Now everyone is busy with their own work. Your father is busy with business, your brother is busy on the computer, your sister is busy studying abroad and your mum is busy with household work. I don’t know how to pass my days,” said his grandfather sadly.

“Grandpa, you have me!” said Alex.

His grandfather smiled and said, “Yeah, you are here, but what about others? In our days, we had a fixed time each day when the whole family sat together and talked, shared problems and laughed together.”

That night Alex thought about what his grandfather had said and an idea flashed through his mind. He decided to have a surprise New Year party at his own home and make everyone come together that day. As New Year’s Eve got nearer, Alex got busy preparing for the party. He kept it a secret from his grandfather and asked everyone not to let him know about it in order to surprise him.

It was December 31 and everyone was busy with their own work.
