读后续写行为动作描写的取胜关键（一）
续写中最重要的描写就是行为动作描写，因为只有行为动作的发生 才有故事的情节发展。
行为动作描写如何才能胜人一筹呢？其中一个方法就是具体化动词的使用。
平时所用的go, look, see, make, get, say, take等等这些都是没有画面感的普通笼统词。续写时，则应将其替换成细致型 有画面感的具体化动词。
比如，关于“看”，要写出到底是何种“看”，是盯着看“stare”，还是愤怒地看“glare”；关于“走”，要写出究竟是何种“走”，是冲过去“rush”，还是一步步走过去“step”......
尤其是在具体场景描写时，定要选择具体化动词进行细致刻画，展现出栩栩如生的画面 才能让故事动人心弦。
要提醒的是，我们只需记常用的具体化动作词即可，并不需要走极端地花过多精力去记生僻词，因为考题中的故事场景一般都是普通生活场景，不会涉及“神奇”动作，所以没必要走极端，而且我们还要花更多时间在构思设计和英语表达的文采提升上。
在此分享高考英语续写中常用的一些具体化动词。同时配有相应动作描写例句（也包含一定高级句式结构）。通过句子更容易记住动词，同时也练习表达。
