读后续写：故事开头六大绝招（解析版）
Part 1 好的开头就成功了一半
一个好的开头，就像是一块诱人的鱼肉，吸引着读者，让他们继续看下去。而一个糟糕的开头，只会让人觉得索然无味，昏昏欲睡。有句谚语说得好：“well begun is half done!”所以，要想写出一个好的故事，就要有一个好的开始，这是很重要的。所以究竟要怎样才能在紧张的考试中写出一个漂亮的开头呢？
第一招：副词开头
我们先来看两个例句：
Carefully, he stepped over all the broken glass.他小心翼翼地踩过了所有的碎玻璃。
Joyfully ，he skipped up the street.他很高兴地跳过了街道。
这里的carefully和joyfully把后面的两个动作“step踩”和“skip跳”描写的更加细致和生动。
更多例句：
He folded the paper carefully. 他小心地把那张纸折起来。
I replaced the vase carefully on its pedestal. 我小心地把花瓶放回基座上。
They greeted him joyfully. 他们非常快乐地跟他打了招呼。
They began to work harder than ever and more joyfully. 他们开始比以前更努力地、更快乐地工作。
我们来看 2016年高考真题。故事大致是这样的：夫妻旅游途中吵架，妻子独自离开，迷路在树林里，直升飞机来了几次救援但没有看见她，她感到很失望。
第一段开头的提示句是：
But no more helicopters came and it was getting dark again. 意思是：没有直升机来了，天又黑了。同学们，可以想一想，我们该怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们来看看下面的写法：
Immediately, an absolute darkness ruled the forest. 立刻，一片黑暗笼罩着森林。
这里就用了：时间副词immediately衔接 + 环境描写，烘托了森林里迷路的紧张气氛。
更多例句：
I took to my new boss immediately. 我立刻对新老板产生了好感。
They leapt into action immediately. 他们立即断然采取了行动。
He immediately flung himself to the floor. 他立即扑倒在地。
第二招：形容词短语开头
我们先看两个例句：
Curious to know what was inside, he tiptoed into the dark cave.他好奇地想知道里面是什么，踮着脚尖走进了黑暗的洞穴。
这里的“Curious to know what was inside, 很想知道里面有什么东西”就是形容词短语，表明他进洞穴的原因。相当于：He was curious to know what was inside, and he tiptoed into the dark cave.
更多例句：
I'm curious to know what she said. 我真想知道她说了什么。
She is curious to know what happens. 她好奇地要知道发生了什么事。
They were curious to know what they should do next. 他们好奇地想知道下一步该做什么。
Unable to say a word, he was rooted to the spot.一句话也说不出来，他就楞在了原地。
这里的“unable to say a word”也是一个形容词短语，表现了“楞在原地”这个动作伴随动作：说不出一个字。
更多例句：
I am unable to write you a long letter, but I will say if you take this step you depart from the plainest injunction of God's Word and cannot expect or claim His blessing upon such a union. 我不能给你写一封很长的信，但我要说你若走这一步，就是离开上帝圣言最清楚明白的禁令，并且不可指望或要求 祝福这种结合。 上帝一切的应许都是以对 的服从为前提的。
我们来看2018年高考真题：
讲的是爸爸带儿子去朋友家农场游玩而迷路的故事。
第一段开头给的提示句是： Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse. 突然，一只小兔子跳到了我的马前。
怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
Afraid that I might hurt the lovely small creature, I automatically let out a cry to stop my horse. 意思是：我害怕我会伤害这个可爱的小生物，我自动发出一声喊叫来阻止我的马。这里用情绪形容词+从句的形式，很好体现了后一个动作“喊叫cry”的原因。
我们来看这篇文章的 第二段开头：
文章给的提示句是：We had no idea where we were and it got dark.我们不知道自己在哪里，天变黑了。
怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
Exhausted and hungry, I wondered if we could find our way back. 我又累又饿，想知道我们能不能找到回去的路。
这里用情绪形容词+从句的形式，很好体现了后一个动作伴随的情况：又累又饿！
第三招： 非谓语开头
先看这个例句：
Looking around him cautiously, he slipped into the room and softly closed the door.他小心翼翼地环顾四周，溜进了房间，轻轻地关上门。
这里的“Looking around him cautiously”意思是：小心翼翼地环顾四周，是一个非谓语动词短语。
我们来看 2016年高考真题第一段开头，刚才提到过，讲了妻子在森林里迷路的故事。
文章给的提示句是：But no more helicopters came and it was getting dark again.但是没有直升机来了，天又黑了。刚才我们用副词开头写了一个句子。现在我们用非谓语开头，怎么写呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
Feeling disappointed, Jane had to stay alone for another night. 简感到失望，不得不再呆一夜。本句中的开头，用了doing的形式，即feeling disappointed感到失望。
我们再来看 2016年10月高考真题第二段开头：
文章给的提示句是： It was daybreak when Jane woke up. 简醒来的时候天已经亮了。
怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
Feeling refreshed, she continued to walk along the stream to find the way out.她感到神清气爽，继续沿着小溪散步，寻找出去的路。
这里用feeling refreshed的形式，很好体现了后一个动作“walk”的伴随状态。
第四招：对话或独白开头
先看一个例句：
“Let’s see who gets there first!” Rachel shouted, as she pedaled fast and zoomed past Jenny.“让我们看看谁先到那里去！”瑞秋一边叫着，一边飞快地蹬着车从珍妮身边冲过去。
类似的写法，我们来看 2017年高考真题，文章主要讲的是作者和朋友一起骑车游玩，途中遇狼的故事。第一段开头文章给的提示句是：The car abruptly stopped in front of him. 汽车突然停在他面前。
怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写："Get into the car." Paul shouted at Mac. “上车！” 保罗对麦克喊道。
第五招：背景描写
我们来看 2017年高考真题，文章讲了作者与健忘的妈妈一块去旅游的故事。
第二段开头的提示语是这样的：We drove through several states and saw lots of great sights along the way（我们开车穿过了几个州，沿途看到了很多好风景。）
怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
I looked out of the car window, winding rivers, lofty mountains, sunny beaches and deep valleys, holding me entirely in their fascination.
我望着车窗外，蜿蜒的河流，高耸的山脉，阳光明媚的海滩和深邃的山谷，完全吸引了我的注意力。
这里用“视觉+环境描写+拟人”的写作手法，也成功地抓住了读者的注意力！
第六招：行为描写
Furry started wagging his tail and running around in circles when he saw his master taking a leash out from the drawer. Furry was all ready for his evening walk.
当他看到他的主人从抽屉里拿出一条皮带时，Furry开始摇，绕着圈跑。 Furry准备好了晚上的散步。一连串有关Furry的动作链，像放电影一样，印刻在读者的大脑中。为后面情节发展做好了铺垫。
我们来看 2017年高考真，仍然是作者与健忘妈妈一块去旅游的故事。
文章的第一段的提示句是：The next day we remembered the brand-new tent we had brought with us.（第二天，我们想起了我们带来的那个全新的帐篷。）怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
Dad exchanged a glance with me. Why not camp to satisfy Mom 爸爸和我相互看了一眼。 为什么不露营来满足妈妈？
这里就用到了动作描写+问句衔接。很好勾起了读者的兴趣。
Part 2 素材积累：情感描写

湖南省长沙市第一中学2022-2023高三上学期月考（四）
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'll never forget the day that one of my fifth-grade students,Jace,shyly raised his hand and said that he had never received a gift during reading discussions. Jace's honesty surprised me. What was even more eye-opening was the fact that the boy had gone ten years and never experienced the joy and surprise of receiving a present.
I tried to search a reason that he might be saying this. Then I remembered his story. His mother was out of the picture and he lived alone with his dad. His father had a hard time holding down a job, and come to think of it.I didn't see his father at enrollment（注册）or parent-teacher conferences.
A couple of weeks after Jace's comment,he was absent from school.This happened to be the day I was sending home the annual note about the classroom Christmas gift exchange.Traditionally,each boy was to bring a gift for a boy in the three-dollar range and the same was true for each girl.
As we were discussing the specifics, a girl raised her hand and suggested that we do away with our traditional policy, and each buy a gift for Jace instead. The enthusiasm grew as the students discussed the kinds of things they knew Jace would like. We took a quick vote and unanimously（意见一致地）agreed to go ahead with this wonderful idea.
With great excitement,the gifts began to come in.Students with bright eyes would eagerly tell me how they found the "perfect gift"and how their parents spent more than three dollars on Jace's gift! As the gifts poured in, I remember being so proud of my thoughtful, selfless students who were truly showing the spirit of Christmas.
After several days of absences,you can imagine our disappointment when we learned that Jace's absences were due to the fact that he had moved away!I was sure of one thing.I couldn't let my students or Jace down.
I found my information sheet and called every number listed. Apparently.Jace's father had lost his job,causing them to relocate.No one knew where they were, and the cell phone number I had would ring with no response despite my continuous efforts. Even into our Christmas vacation,I constantly gave the phone number a shot.

【One possible version】
Finally,at 9:30 PM on Christmas Eve,I decided to try one last time.By then,I really didn't worry about calling at a late hour.I was so used to no answer after many attempts that I was startled（震惊的）to hear a response. Amazingly， Jace answered the phone！ Soon， I explained the story to Jace and told him how his classmates really wanted to do this for him. I spoke with his father and the next thing I knew,I was driving to Jace's home.
As I drove down the road to Jace's house，I saw the porch light of his father's trailer（拖车式房屋）signaling which home was his.I was thrilled to see Jace. We filled the room with all of the carefully wrapped gifts that were especially for him.He was so surprised and grateful. Jace's joyful smile that evening lit up the sky like a strand of twinkle lights.I went to sleep that night thinking about Jace's joy and my thoughtful students. With a smile of my own, I was thankful to be a part of one of the most important“lessons”of their lives.

I felt anxious about school as I was not an adventurous girl. My head was full of fears and worries. Would I make friends Would I fit in Would I survive in this strange new world Shy and quiet, I read a lot and did not make friends easily. I loved learning. I loved reading. I even loved homework. Loving books and reading helped me get good grades. Teachers loved that about me. Even a brand-new group of teachers.
Other kids,though,didn't like me getting top grades, answering questions in class or being delighted with school. I did not win popularity contests. But I couldn't stop being me-loving to read and learn.I felt like a total failure.I tried not to be discouraged.
Then one day,a tall,athletic boy in English class strode right over to me. He introduced himself as being on the school basketball team. It dawned

Maybe there is a Father Christmas!
Anna stood anxiously staring at the pouring rain while little Molly looked up at a pretty doll in the window of the toy shop on the edge of town. “Mummy, ” Molly said, “that's the doll I would like Father Christmas to bring me. ” A tear rolled down Anna's cheek and she knew it would be impossible this year. They were supposed to start a new life in Spain one and a half years ago before her husband Tim was cruelly taken from them by a car. Their small amount of savings was quickly spent on Tim's funeral costs and necessities, leaving her in heavy debt.
To her relief, the local people had helped to support her through these difficult times and especially Juan, owner of the local grocery store, a single man, who would often put something special into her shopping bag, even though he himself had been going through a difficult period-his mother died of cancer and he was busy handling the sale of his mother's house on the edge of town.
As the rain stopped, Anna and Molly started walking home. She was thinking about buying an umbrella after paying the rent with her upcoming wage when Molly shouted excitedly, “Mummy, what's that on the road ” Anna looked down and saw a bag lying in the water, which was obviously lost because of the sudden rain.
They got home and dried themselves before Anna focused on the bag. Opening it and seeing bundles of money inside, she stood back in shock and cried, “Is this a present from kindness I can pay off my debt, buy Molly's favorite doll and my new umbrella. . . ” Then reality set in, Anna was a very moral person and would never steal even the slightest little thing, let alone bundles of money. She went to bed with all thoughts in her mind.

Two policemen kept necessary records seriously, spoke highly of her and promised to find its owner as soon as possible. A deep sense of pride flooded over Anna when she left the station and headed for work.
At supper, Anna had an unexpected visitor - Juan with a gift box in his hands. Anna invited him in and Molly greeted him happily. After being seated, Juan explained he was almost crushed when he found his money missing. It was Anna’s selfless behavior that lit up his world. Throwing them a warm smile, Juan handed them the beautifully-decorated box and said, “I don’t know how to show my thankfulness. And this is for you and Moly. Wish you a merry Christmas.” Molly exclaimed in great excitement when she was unwrapping the box - it was the very doll she wanted ! Anna smiled, “Maybe there is a Father Christmas!”

Part 4 高考真题再现
2022年1月浙江卷
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事
When Dr.Henderson was assigning(指定) project mates for his psychology class, I secretly hoped that he would pair me with my best friend or at least a classmate I could have some fun with. Above all, I hoped he wouldn’t assign me to work with the fiercely competitive and extremely serious fellow who always wore dark clothes and apparently had a personality to match. As fate（命运） would have it, Dr. Henderson very deliberately matched everyone in class and announced that I would be working with the one person in class I wanted to avoid.
I went up to my new teammate and introduced myself. He looked at me as though I weren’t there. I felt he treated me as though I would hold him back and probably make him fail to get an A in the course. He wasn’t mean or abusive.He just gave me the impression that he could do whatever project we dreamed up better if he did it alone.
Needless to say, I didn’t look forward to an entire term of being brushed off, but I tried to make the best of it and didn’t say anything for fear that I would make things worse.
The project required each team to develop a hypothesis(假说), set up an experiment to test the hypothesis, do the statistical analysis and present the findings. Whatever grade the team received would be shared by both students.
When my teammate and I met to discuss our project, I was uneasy. Here was this challenging student who had a reputation for single-mindedness and good grades—the exact opposite of me. I actually wanted to drop the class at one point, but stopped short because I didn’t want to give him the satisfaction of my chickening out. I decided to stick to it no matter what.
After long discussions, we somehow agreed to do a study on the psychological well-being of teenagers. I wasn’t sure what it meant exactly, but at least we had a topic.

Paragraph 1: We started to meet regularly to draw up our plans.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: One day I got word that he was admitted to hospital for a serious disease.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
参考答案1：
We started to meet regularly to draw up our plans. At first, it seemed that he dominated our discussion for he was familiar with the topic, but I was the opposite. However, as days passed, I gradually got involved because he started to encourage me to explain my views! I could feel his icy shell gradually melting away and eventually I could discuss with him looking straight in his eyes. We finished the hypothesis and experiment procedure, in great harmony actually. Things came out that he was serious, indeed, but he seemed icy because he was lonely. We parted the day before analysis discussion with confidence for our project. But when I returned the next morning, he was nowhere to be found. The fact struck me feeling desperate. He didn’t come either in the following days.
One day I got word that he was admitted to hospital for a serious disease. It was the day before deadline and I drowned myself doing analysis and preparing for the presentation. Hearing the word, I dashed to the hospital and found him, my dear teammate, lying on the bed, face pale. His eyes sparkled as he saw me. Beside him I managed to finish the last tasks with his guidance---his fingers pointing at certain figures. Then next day I went for the presentation in class.
参考答案2：
We started to meet regularly to draw up our plans. Serious as my teammate was, we gradually grew in good tune with each other. He had a way with technical things and approached every detail with a clear purpose. And I spared no effort to do my bit, collecting data and recording results carefully, so as to make up for my academic disadvantage. I fully discussed my ideas and shared my insights with him, who was once indifferent but later listened to me with close attention. We were making steady progress with our project.
One day I got word that he was admitted to hospital for a serious disease. The moment I saw him lying helplessly in bed, I decided I had to act alone and do my best. I assured him I would not let him down and he should concentrate on recovering. I poured more time and energy into that project than ever before, and finally presented our findings to the class, which surprisingly earned us an excellent grade! When I told him about our shared success, he smiled. It had to do with trust and the joy of sharing a common prize.

读后续写：故事开头六大绝招（解析版）
Part 1 好的开头就成功了一半
一个好的开头，就像是一块诱人的鱼肉，吸引着读者，让他们继续看下去。而一个糟糕的开头，只会让人觉得索然无味，昏昏欲睡。有句谚语说得好：“well begun is half done!”所以，要想写出一个好的故事，就要有一个好的开始，这是很重要的。所以究竟要怎样才能在紧张的考试中写出一个漂亮的开头呢？
第一招：副词开头
我们先来看两个例句：
Carefully, he stepped over all the broken glass.他小心翼翼地踩过了所有的碎玻璃。
Joyfully ，he skipped up the street.他很高兴地跳过了街道。
这里的carefully和joyfully把后面的两个动作“step踩”和“skip跳”描写的更加细致和生动。
更多例句：
He folded the paper carefully. 他小心地把那张纸折起来。
I replaced the vase carefully on its pedestal. 我小心地把花瓶放回基座上。
They greeted him joyfully. 他们非常快乐地跟他打了招呼。
They began to work harder than ever and more joyfully. 他们开始比以前更努力地、更快乐地工作。
我们来看 2016年高考真题。故事大致是这样的：夫妻旅游途中吵架，妻子独自离开，迷路在树林里，直升飞机来了几次救援但没有看见她，她感到很失望。
第一段开头的提示句是：
But no more helicopters came and it was getting dark again. 意思是：没有直升机来了，天又黑了。同学们，可以想一想，我们该怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们来看看下面的写法：
Immediately, an absolute darkness ruled the forest. 立刻，一片黑暗笼罩着森林。
这里就用了：时间副词immediately衔接 + 环境描写，烘托了森林里迷路的紧张气氛。
更多例句：
I took to my new boss immediately. 我立刻对新老板产生了好感。
They leapt into action immediately. 他们立即断然采取了行动。
He immediately flung himself to the floor. 他立即扑倒在地。
第二招：形容词短语开头
我们先看两个例句：
Curious to know what was inside, he tiptoed into the dark cave.他好奇地想知道里面是什么，踮着脚尖走进了黑暗的洞穴。
这里的“Curious to know what was inside, 很想知道里面有什么东西”就是形容词短语，表明他进洞穴的原因。相当于：He was curious to know what was inside, and he tiptoed into the dark cave.
更多例句：
I'm curious to know what she said. 我真想知道她说了什么。
She is curious to know what happens. 她好奇地要知道发生了什么事。
They were curious to know what they should do next. 他们好奇地想知道下一步该做什么。
Unable to say a word, he was rooted to the spot.一句话也说不出来，他就楞在了原地。
这里的“unable to say a word”也是一个形容词短语，表现了“楞在原地”这个动作伴随动作：说不出一个字。
更多例句：
I am unable to write you a long letter, but I will say if you take this step you depart from the plainest injunction of God's Word and cannot expect or claim His blessing upon such a union. 我不能给你写一封很长的信，但我要说你若走这一步，就是离开上帝圣言最清楚明白的禁令，并且不可指望或要求 祝福这种结合。 上帝一切的应许都是以对 的服从为前提的。
我们来看2018年高考真题：
讲的是爸爸带儿子去朋友家农场游玩而迷路的故事。
第一段开头给的提示句是： Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse. 突然，一只小兔子跳到了我的马前。
怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
Afraid that I might hurt the lovely small creature, I automatically let out a cry to stop my horse. 意思是：我害怕我会伤害这个可爱的小生物，我自动发出一声喊叫来阻止我的马。这里用情绪形容词+从句的形式，很好体现了后一个动作“喊叫cry”的原因。
我们来看这篇文章的 第二段开头：
文章给的提示句是：We had no idea where we were and it got dark.我们不知道自己在哪里，天变黑了。
怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
Exhausted and hungry, I wondered if we could find our way back. 我又累又饿，想知道我们能不能找到回去的路。
这里用情绪形容词+从句的形式，很好体现了后一个动作伴随的情况：又累又饿！
第三招： 非谓语开头
先看这个例句：
Looking around him cautiously, he slipped into the room and softly closed the door.他小心翼翼地环顾四周，溜进了房间，轻轻地关上门。
这里的“Looking around him cautiously”意思是：小心翼翼地环顾四周，是一个非谓语动词短语。
我们来看 2016年高考真题第一段开头，刚才提到过，讲了妻子在森林里迷路的故事。
文章给的提示句是：But no more helicopters came and it was getting dark again.但是没有直升机来了，天又黑了。刚才我们用副词开头写了一个句子。现在我们用非谓语开头，怎么写呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
Feeling disappointed, Jane had to stay alone for another night. 简感到失望，不得不再呆一夜。本句中的开头，用了doing的形式，即feeling disappointed感到失望。
我们再来看 2016年10月高考真题第二段开头：
文章给的提示句是： It was daybreak when Jane woke up. 简醒来的时候天已经亮了。
怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
Feeling refreshed, she continued to walk along the stream to find the way out.她感到神清气爽，继续沿着小溪散步，寻找出去的路。
这里用feeling refreshed的形式，很好体现了后一个动作“walk”的伴随状态。
第四招：对话或独白开头
先看一个例句：
“Let’s see who gets there first!” Rachel shouted, as she pedaled fast and zoomed past Jenny.“让我们看看谁先到那里去！”瑞秋一边叫着，一边飞快地蹬着车从珍妮身边冲过去。
类似的写法，我们来看 2017年高考真题，文章主要讲的是作者和朋友一起骑车游玩，途中遇狼的故事。第一段开头文章给的提示句是：The car abruptly stopped in front of him. 汽车突然停在他面前。
怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写："Get into the car." Paul shouted at Mac. “上车！” 保罗对麦克喊道。
第五招：背景描写
我们来看 2017年高考真题，文章讲了作者与健忘的妈妈一块去旅游的故事。
第二段开头的提示语是这样的：We drove through several states and saw lots of great sights along the way（我们开车穿过了几个州，沿途看到了很多好风景。）
怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
I looked out of the car window, winding rivers, lofty mountains, sunny beaches and deep valleys, holding me entirely in their fascination.
我望着车窗外，蜿蜒的河流，高耸的山脉，阳光明媚的海滩和深邃的山谷，完全吸引了我的注意力。
这里用“视觉+环境描写+拟人”的写作手法，也成功地抓住了读者的注意力！
第六招：行为描写
Furry started wagging his tail and running around in circles when he saw his master taking a leash out from the drawer. Furry was all ready for his evening walk.
当他看到他的主人从抽屉里拿出一条皮带时，Furry开始摇，绕着圈跑。 Furry准备好了晚上的散步。一连串有关Furry的动作链，像放电影一样，印刻在读者的大脑中。为后面情节发展做好了铺垫。
我们来看 2017年高考真，仍然是作者与健忘妈妈一块去旅游的故事。
文章的第一段的提示句是：The next day we remembered the brand-new tent we had brought with us.（第二天，我们想起了我们带来的那个全新的帐篷。）怎么接下来写开头呢？（停顿3秒钟）我们可以这么写：
Dad exchanged a glance with me. Why not camp to satisfy Mom 爸爸和我相互看了一眼。 为什么不露营来满足妈妈？
这里就用到了动作描写+问句衔接。很好勾起了读者的兴趣。

湖南省长沙市第一中学2022-2023高三上学期月考（四）
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'll never forget the day that one of my fifth-grade students,Jace,shyly raised his hand and said that he had never received a gift during reading discussions. Jace's honesty surprised me. What was even more eye-opening was the fact that the boy had gone ten years and never experienced the joy and surprise of receiving a present.
I tried to search a reason that he might be saying this. Then I remembered his story. His mother was out of the picture and he lived alone with his dad. His father had a hard time holding down a job, and come to think of it.I didn't see his father at enrollment（注册）or parent-teacher conferences.
A couple of weeks after Jace's comment,he was absent from school.This happened to be the day I was sending home the annual note about the classroom Christmas gift exchange.Traditionally,each boy was to bring a gift for a boy in the three-dollar range and the same was true for each girl.
As we were discussing the specifics, a girl raised her hand and suggested that we do away with our traditional policy, and each buy a gift for Jace instead. The enthusiasm grew as the students discussed the kinds of things they knew Jace would like. We took a quick vote and unanimously（意见一致地）agreed to go ahead with this wonderful idea.
With great excitement,the gifts began to come in.Students with bright eyes would eagerly tell me how they found the "perfect gift"and how their parents spent more than three dollars on Jace's gift! As the gifts poured in, I remember being so proud of my thoughtful, selfless students who were truly showing the spirit of Christmas.
After several days of absences,you can imagine our disappointment when we learned that Jace's absences were due to the fact that he had moved away!I was sure of one thing.I couldn't let my students or Jace down.
I found my information sheet and called every number listed. Apparently.Jace's father had lost his job,causing them to relocate.No one knew where they were, and the cell phone number I had would ring with no response despite my continuous efforts. Even into our Christmas vacation,I constantly gave the phone number a shot.

Learning to Dribble（运球）
I was the new kid in town. New home. New city. New state. And new school. My dad got a new job, and we had packed up our lives and moved from our old home,school,friends and everything.We moved over summer vacation, so I didn't have to deal with school right away. We'd landed in southern Florida,and we were total strangers.
Summer whizzed by while we unpacked,arranged furniture,found stores we liked, and adjusted to the sunshine state with its palm trees and canals everywhere.
I felt anxious about school as I was not an adventurous girl. My head was full of fears and worries. Would I make friends Would I fit in Would I survive in this strange new world Shy and quiet, I read a lot and did not make friends easily. I loved learning. I loved reading. I even loved homework. Loving books and reading helped me get good grades. Teachers loved that about me. Even a brand-new group of teachers.
Other kids,though,didn't like me getting top grades, answering questions in class or being delighted with school. I did not win popularity contests. But I couldn't stop being me-loving to read and learn.I felt like a total failure.I tried not to be discouraged.
Then one day,a tall,athletic boy in English class strode right over to me. He introduced himself as being on the school basketball team. It dawned
on me that he was James, the captain!
"Hey,"he said."You do really well in English class.Do you think you could help me "Yes, oh, yes, definitely yes.I could, and I would. We sealed the deal with an exchange of smiles.

Maybe there is a Father Christmas!
Anna stood anxiously staring at the pouring rain while little Molly looked up at a pretty doll in the window of the toy shop on the edge of town. “Mummy, ” Molly said, “that's the doll I would like Father Christmas to bring me. ” A tear rolled down Anna's cheek and she knew it would be impossible this year. They were supposed to start a new life in Spain one and a half years ago before her husband Tim was cruelly taken from them by a car. Their small amount of savings was quickly spent on Tim's funeral costs and necessities, leaving her in heavy debt.
To her relief, the local people had helped to support her through these difficult times and especially Juan, owner of the local grocery store, a single man, who would often put something special into her shopping bag, even though he himself had been going through a difficult period-his mother died of cancer and he was busy handling the sale of his mother's house on the edge of town.
As the rain stopped, Anna and Molly started walking home. She was thinking about buying an umbrella after paying the rent with her upcoming wage when Molly shouted excitedly, “Mummy, what's that on the road ” Anna looked down and saw a bag lying in the water, which was obviously lost because of the sudden rain.
They got home and dried themselves before Anna focused on the bag. Opening it and seeing bundles of money inside, she stood back in shock and cried, “Is this a present from kindness I can pay off my debt, buy Molly's favorite doll and my new umbrella. . . ” Then reality set in, Anna was a very moral person and would never steal even the slightest little thing, let alone bundles of money. She went to bed with all thoughts in her mind.

Part 4 高考真题再现
2022年1月浙江卷
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事
When Dr.Henderson was assigning(指定) project mates for his psychology class, I secretly hoped that he would pair me with my best friend or at least a classmate I could have some fun with. Above all, I hoped he wouldn’t assign me to work with the fiercely competitive and extremely serious fellow who always wore dark clothes and apparently had a personality to match. As fate（命运） would have it, Dr. Henderson very deliberately matched everyone in class and announced that I would be working with the one person in class I wanted to avoid.
I went up to my new teammate and introduced myself. He looked at me as though I weren’t there. I felt he treated me as though I would hold him back and probably make him fail to get an A in the course. He wasn’t mean or abusive.He just gave me the impression that he could do whatever project we dreamed up better if he did it alone.
Needless to say, I didn’t look forward to an entire term of being brushed off, but I tried to make the best of it and didn’t say anything for fear that I would make things worse.
The project required each team to develop a hypothesis(假说), set up an experiment to test the hypothesis, do the statistical analysis and present the findings. Whatever grade the team received would be shared by both students.
When my teammate and I met to discuss our project, I was uneasy. Here was this challenging student who had a reputation for single-mindedness and good grades—the exact opposite of me. I actually wanted to drop the class at one point, but stopped short because I didn’t want to give him the satisfaction of my chickening out. I decided to stick to it no matter what.
After long discussions, we somehow agreed to do a study on the psychological well-being of teenagers. I wasn’t sure what it meant exactly, but at least we had a topic.
