写作技法指导
(一)品参考范文
Sunday 12 April
I was lucky enough to be chosen as a visitor to the space station! After an exciting blast into orbit, I couldn't wait to look through the space station windows into deep space！You can imagine my disappointment when I didn't see many stars.The astronauts laughed and explained to me that we were still in the sunlight, so of course we couldn't see much, because the light was too bright.Shortly after, we passed into Earth's shadow, and I looked out of the window to see the most amazing number of stars!
I felt very excited! This is the most unforgettable experience on the station.Soon after that, it was time for dinner.The thing I noticed most was not the zero gravity measures for eating, but the fact that the food didn't have much taste.And my nose felt blocked.It turns out these things are related, because in zero gravity, your face swells up more.
After that, it was time to get strapped into bed.It was a bit hard to sleep in zero gravity — my arms kept floating away, and I woke up to see them right in front of my face, instead of lying on the bed like they would on Earth.Despite even simple things being harder to do, I really enjoyed being in zero gravity, and I loved being able to float around instead of having to walk.It's a pity my stay on the station was so short.It would have been great to stay longer and learn more about life in space!
(二)根据参考范文，可总结出该类文体的框架结构如下：
(三)由范文学写作
1．学行文逻辑
(1)范文按照时间顺序展开，从被选为太空站访客开始，到进入太空站、观察星空、用餐，再到就寝，每个事件都按照实际发生的顺序进行叙述，使得整个故事流畅连贯。
(2)范文中通过主人公的情感变化来引导读者进入情境。一开始的兴奋(被选为访客、期待看到星空)，到失望(未能在阳光下看到星星)，再到惊讶和兴奋(进入地球阴影后看到繁星)，最后是享受(在零重力环境中的新奇体验)和遗憾(停留时间太短)。这种情感波动增强了故事的吸引力和真实感。
2．学衔接过渡
范文从开头到结尾，各个部分之间的衔接非常自然，没有明显的跳跃或突兀之感。尤其是作者巧妙地使用了过渡词来连接不同的段落或句子，使得文本更加连贯。例如，“Shortly after”“After that”“Despite”等词语在文中起到了很好的过渡作用，使得文本更加顺畅。
3．学亮点表达
(1)亮点词汇
①第一段第二句使用了blast into orbit，形象地描绘了火箭发射时的强烈冲击力和速度感，而into orbit则准确指出了火箭的最终目的地——进入轨道。第三句使用了disappointment，准确地表达了作者未能立即看到星星时的失落情绪，为后文的转折做了铺垫。第四句和第五句分别使用了sunlight 和 Earth's shadow，形成了鲜明的对比，前者解释了为何看不到星星，后者则预示着星星即将出现，推动了情节的发展。第五句还使用了形容词amazing，强烈地表达了作者看到星星时的震撼和惊喜之情。最后一句使用了词组swells up揭示了失重环境下人体的一种生理反应，增加了文章的科普性和趣味性。
②第二段首句中的短语get strapped into bed以及第三句中的float around都生动地描绘了作者在失重环境下能够自由漂浮的奇妙体验，展现了太空生活的独特魅力。第三句还使用了表示转折的介词Despite，表达了作者即使在面对困难时，也依然享受失重环境带来的乐趣，展现了作者积极乐观的态度。
(2)亮点句式
①第一段第二句使用了感叹句，表达了作者对太空探索的迫切期待和兴奋之情，同时让读者能够感受到作者当时的激动心情。
②第一段最后一句使用了because引导的原因状语从句，解释了食物味道变淡和鼻子感觉堵塞的原因——与失重环境有关，增加了文章的科学性和趣味性。
③第二段最后一句使用了虚拟语气，表达了对不能长时间留在太空站学习更多太空生活知识的遗憾，增强了句子的情感色彩和感染力。

Ⅳ.读后续写
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。
Jenny lived in a small village. When she was a child, what she liked to do most was watch the blue sky and enjoy birds flying freely in the sky. She always imagined that some day she could also fly in the sky like a bird.
When Jenny was in the fourth grade, one day, her teacher asked them to write a report on what they wanted to be when they grew up. She poured her heart into her report and wrote that she dreamed to become an airline pilot in the future. She thought that she did a great job because she expressed her real idea successfully. However, to her surprise, her paper came back with an “F” on it. The teacher told her it was nothing but a “fairy tale”， which could never become true. Jenny felt completely disappointed and sad. In her heart, she didn't want to accept that a girl couldn't become a pilot. But as the years went by, Jenny was beaten down by the discouragement again and again from people around her. “Girls can't become airline pilots; never have, never will. You're crazy.” Finally, Jenny gave up her dream.
However, when Jenny studied in her senior year of high school, she met an English teacher called Marsha, who was a strict teacher with high standards but very kind. She often inspired her students to do something meaningful in the future. One day, Mrs Marsha asked all the students to think about the question: “What will you do in the future？” At that time, Jenny hesitated for a while. She was worried that she would be laughed at again. But soon she felt a rush of the old enthusiasm, and with excitement she wrote down the very old dream of becoming a pilot right away.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
The next day, Marsha came into the classroom with a bright smile on her face.
The hurt and fear of years of discouragement disappeared.
参考范文：
The next day, Marsha came into the classroom with a bright smile on her face. She praised all the students for what they had finished including Jenny. Mrs Marsha told Jenny that her dream was wonderful and she was sure that Jenny would have the abilities and talents to make it come true if she tried her best. Besides, she also encouraged Jenny to keep on trying without worrying about others' opinions. Hearing the words, Jenny felt a relief from her heart and made up her mind to study hard to realize her dream.
The hurt and fear of years of discouragement disappeared. Encouraged and full of passion, Jenny began to pursue her dream with all her effort. In the following ten years, she studied hard and never gave up even when she was faced with all kinds of difficulties. Eventually, Jenny became a pilot of a famous airline company, realizing her dream of flying in the sky like a bird. All of us may meet different difficulties on our way to success, but if we keep on trying without giving up, we will make it come true.

阅读七选五
Exploring the planets with an amateur telescope
If you're a new telescope owner, the whole sky is your playground. 1 The brightest ones stand out in the night sky and are easy to spot through your telescope.
2 In general, small telescopes with low magnification (放大率) will not show as much detail as larger amateur telescopes at higher magnification.
Many experienced amateur observers let their telescopes get used to outside temperatures. 3 While the equipment is cooling down, observers gather their star charts, warm clothes, and other accessories (配件)．
Most telescopes come with eyepieces.It's always best to check the guide to see which one is best for planetary viewing.In general, look for eyepieces with names like Pl ssl or Orthoscopic, in lengths of three to nine millimeters. 4
If this all seems confusing, it's always a good idea to take the telescope to a local astronomy club, a camera store, or a planetarium (天文馆) for advice from more experienced observers. 5
It's important to research which stars will be in the sky at any given time.Magazines such as Sky & Telescope publish charts each month on their websites showing what's visible.Astronomy software packages have much of the same information.There are also smartphone apps that provide star charts at your fingertips.
A．This takes about 30 minutes.
B．There's a wealth of information available online, too.
C．There's no “one size fits all” solution to planet-gazing.
D．But if you're a beginner, you may want to start by looking for planets.
E．The easiest object in the sky to observe with a telescope is the Moon.
F．Which one to choose depends on the size and focal length of the telescope.
G．Magnification means how many times larger a telescope will make an object look.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要为刚刚买了望远镜想要观察星空的初学者提出了一些建议。
1．选D 空前一句引出话题，说明有了新望远镜就可以探索星空。空后一句提到用望远镜可以看到夜空中最亮的星星。D项“但如果你是初学者，你可能想从寻找行星开始”和上文形成转折关系，语义相衔接。下文中“The brightest ones”指代该项中的“planets”。
2．选C 下文从另一个侧面说明，在观测过程中，并不能保证所有的条件都完美，并没有可以解决一切问题的方案。C项“对于行星观测，没有‘一刀切’的解决方案”对下文进行总结，符合语境。
3．选A 结合空前和空后内容可知，该段主要讲述了经验丰富的业余观察者通常会在室外调试望远镜以适应室外温度，然后再开展相关观测工作。而这中间就需要讲到冷却时间。故A项“这大约需要30分钟”承上启下，符合语境。
4．选F 空前提到，要选择最适合行星观测的目镜。F项“选择哪一个取决于望远镜的大小和焦距”承接上文，符合语境。
5．选B 上文提到，对于以上提到的“室外调试”“目镜选用”等建议还有困惑的情况下，可以去天文俱乐部、相机商店或天文馆等地寻求帮助。B项“网上也有丰富的信息”承接上文，符合语境。5 / 5

2．学衔接过渡
范文从开头到结尾，各个部分之间的衔接非常自然，没有明显的跳跃或突兀之感。尤其是作者巧妙地使用了过渡词来连接不同的段落或句子，使得文本更加连贯。例如，“Shortly after”“After that”“Despite”等词语在文中起到了很好的过渡作用，使得文本更加顺畅。
3．学亮点表达
(1)亮点词汇
①第一段第二句使用了blast into orbit，形象地描绘了火箭发射时的强烈冲击力和速度感，而into orbit则准确指出了火箭的最终目的地——进入轨道。第三句使用了disappointment，准确地表达了作者未能立即看到星星时的失落情绪，为后文的转折做了铺垫。第四句和第五句分别使用了sunlight 和 Earth's shadow，形成了鲜明的对比，前者解释了为何看不到星星，后者则预示着星星即将出现，推动了情节的发展。第五句还使用了形容词amazing，强烈地表达了作者看到星星时的震撼和惊喜之情。最后一句使用了词组swells up揭示了失重环境下人体的一种生理反应，增加了文章的科普性和趣味性。
②第二段首句中的短语get strapped into bed以及第三句中的float around都生动地描绘了作者在失重环境下能够自由漂浮的奇妙体验，展现了太空生活的独特魅力。第三句还使用了表示转折的介词Despite，表达了作者即使在面对困难时，也依然享受失重环境带来的乐趣，展现了作者积极乐观的态度。
(2)亮点句式
①第一段第二句使用了感叹句，表达了作者对太空探索的迫切期待和兴奋之情，同时让读者能够感受到作者当时的激动心情。
②第一段最后一句使用了because引导的原因状语从句，解释了食物味道变淡和鼻子感觉堵塞的原因——与失重环境有关，增加了文章的科学性和趣味性。
③第二段最后一句使用了虚拟语气，表达了对不能长时间留在太空站学习更多太空生活知识的遗憾，增强了句子的情感色彩和感染力。

When Jenny was in the fourth grade, one day, her teacher asked them to write a report on what they wanted to be when they grew up. She poured her heart into her report and wrote that she dreamed to become an airline pilot in the future. She thought that she did a great job because she expressed her real idea successfully. However, to her surprise, her paper came back with an “F” on it. The teacher told her it was nothing but a “fairy tale”， which could never become true. Jenny felt completely disappointed and sad. In her heart, she didn't want to accept that a girl couldn't become a pilot. But as the years went by, Jenny was beaten down by the discouragement again and again from people around her. “Girls can't become airline pilots; never have, never will. You're crazy.” Finally, Jenny gave up her dream.
However, when Jenny studied in her senior year of high school, she met an English teacher called Marsha, who was a strict teacher with high standards but very kind. She often inspired her students to do something meaningful in the future. One day, Mrs Marsha asked all the students to think about the question: “What will you do in the future？” At that time, Jenny hesitated for a while. She was worried that she would be laughed at again. But soon she felt a rush of the old enthusiasm, and with excitement she wrote down the very old dream of becoming a pilot right away.

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要为刚刚买了望远镜想要观察星空的初学者提出了一些建议。
1．选D 空前一句引出话题，说明有了新望远镜就可以探索星空。空后一句提到用望远镜可以看到夜空中最亮的星星。D项“但如果你是初学者，你可能想从寻找行星开始”和上文形成转折关系，语义相衔接。下文中“The brightest ones”指代该项中的“planets”。
2．选C 下文从另一个侧面说明，在观测过程中，并不能保证所有的条件都完美，并没有可以解决一切问题的方案。C项“对于行星观测，没有‘一刀切’的解决方案”对下文进行总结，符合语境。
3．选A 结合空前和空后内容可知，该段主要讲述了经验丰富的业余观察者通常会在室外调试望远镜以适应室外温度，然后再开展相关观测工作。而这中间就需要讲到冷却时间。故A项“这大约需要30分钟”承上启下，符合语境。
4．选F 空前提到，要选择最适合行星观测的目镜。F项“选择哪一个取决于望远镜的大小和焦距”承接上文，符合语境。
5．选B 上文提到，对于以上提到的“室外调试”“目镜选用”等建议还有困惑的情况下，可以去天文俱乐部、相机商店或天文馆等地寻求帮助。B项“网上也有丰富的信息”承接上文，符合语境。
