Period IV Writing
读后续写专练
一、写作积累
读后续写备考建议
1. 充分利用叙述故事类的阅读理解或者完形填空。考生在做此类试题时,读到适当的位置,可以暂停片刻,根据已读部分文章的脉络,发散自己的思维,设想可能的几种结尾,最后对照原文的结尾,看自己的设想是否与原文一致。
2. 经常实施微型化训练,也就是对所读文章的某一段落进行设想。根据某一段落的首句提示,结合文章的上文对该段进行合理设想,具体推断该段可能要讲述的内容。
3. 与传统写作类似,续写文章也要注意句子与句子之间的衔接词,甚至是冠词的暗示作用。
4. 进行适度专题化练习。俗话说熟能生巧,对于读后续写这一新题型也是如此。通过适度的练习,可以进一步熟知该种题型的特色,更好地掌握该种题型的答题技巧,更有效地调动传统写作的基础知识,从而写出一篇优美的续写短文。需要注意的是,读后续写补全的是语篇,而非单词或短语。

When Ryan first turned up for Ms. Rose's class, he was kind of nervous because he’d heard Ms. Rose could be a real monster sometimes. But as Ms. Rose started with an overview of what they’d be doing during the year in a pleasant voice, she looked nice enough. Then with a more serious tone, she warned the students that she’d be giving them homework assignments, which were not to be handed in late, and they were to be completed fully. “No excuses! No extensions!”
That day she assigned the class its first homework. They had to do a sheet of math problems and read a short story. It wasn’t due until Thursday, but she suggested they do it immediately that night. “Homework has a way of piling up,” she said, with her eyes narrowing slightly. But today was only Monday! There was plenty of time, Ryan thought.
So when school was over, Ryan and his friends ran off to play baseball. Exhausted after the game, he entertained himself with his favorite TV show, leaving his homework aside on his desk. Days passed quickly. Ryan was free of worries most of the time, while Ms. Rose just occasionally reminded them of the deadline, and that she wouldn’t tolerate anyone not having done it.
On Wednesday, after dinner, he suddenly realized that his homework was due the next day. He raced to his desk and was greeted with the most curious thing. The pile of homework really had grown taller. Oh no! What was he going to do It looked as if the papers had towered over him, almost soaring up to the ceiling.
He really needed to get started. He did a little bit here and there, but he kept getting distracted by other work waiting for him. Finally, he couldn’t even locate the homework he’d started with. Frustrated, he gave up and went to bed. Ryan tossed and turned all night and had bad dreams of paper mountains burying him alive.
The next morning, when Ryan entered the classroom, he found Ms. Rose waiting, with her face dark with rage. Obviously, Ryan wasn’t the only one who suffered from the mysteriously growing assignments.

Failing to meet the deadline, the students had to watch Ms. Rose transform into a real monster.

参考范文
Paragraph 1:
Failing to meet the deadline, the students had to watch Ms. Rose transform into a real monster. She snapped her finger and then all the students could not move. She snapped again so that all the homework was opened in front of the students. Seeing the surprised expression of the students, she said slowly, “Only when you have finished the homework will I let you go. Otherwise, the homework will pile up more and more, and you will always have an opportunity to stay in the classroom.” Hearing this, Ryan and his classmates were alarmed but focused on their homework soon. Fortunately, over time, they completely finished their homework and handed it in.
Paragraph 2 :
With a satisfied smile, Ms. Rose finally released everyone, but assigned the class some extra homework. She changed from the monster to the teacher Ms. Rose. She reminded the students when it was due again. But this time, no one wanted to put his homework off.

It was a warm and sunny morning at the Central Park Zoo. Mary and her classmates were chatting noisily with excitement as their school bus entered the zoo parking lot. Today, Mary’s class was going on a field trip to the zoo to learn more about animals and their natural habitats.
“Before you leave the bus, please make sure you have your partner!” Mrs. Brown announced. To make sure no one got lost in the zoo, each student had a companion. Mary’s companion was named John. John loves animals and was also excited to go to the zoo. But sometimes, John does not follow the rules and gets into trouble. Mary hoped that today, John would follow the rules so they would not get into trouble.
While the rest of the students got off the bus, Mary and John quickly ran off to explore. They found the exhibits for many different kinds of animals and learned a lot about their natural habitats. They saw the elephants playing and they saw giraffes eating. They saw the polar bears sleeping and the monkeys leaping.
Mary asked John, “John, what is your favorite animal ”
“I think I like chimpanzees best. They have a lot of energy, just like me! What animal do you like, Mary ”
“I love polar bears! I think their lifestyle in the Arctic is very interesting.”
A few hours later, Mary and John started to feel hungry. They made their way back to the zoo entrance to eat lunch at the Rainforest Cafe. The Rainforest Cafe is both Mary and John’s favorite restaurant because there is an aquarium inside. The restaurant is also famous for its chocolate cake, which Mary ordered for dessert after they had finished their lunch.
As Mary was finishing her cake, John excused himself to go to the restroom. About ten minutes later, a sudden alarm began to go off and a voice came over the loudspeaker,“Attention! Someone has opened the chimpanzees’ exhibit! Some chimpanzees have escaped!”
People were screaming and starting to run. Mary looked for John, but he was nowhere to be found.

As more and more people ran out of the zoo, Mary began to think
