高考英语读后续写 健忘妈妈趣事 A vacation with my mother I had an interesting childhood: It was filled with surprise and amusements, all because of my mother-loving, sweet, and yet absent-minded and forgetful. One strange family trip we took when I was eleven tells a lot about her. My two sets of grandparents lived in Colorado and North Dakota, and my parents decided to spend a few weeks driving to those states and seeing all the sights along the way. As the first day of our trip approached, David, my eight-year-old brother, and I unwillingly said good-bye to all of our friends. Who knew if we’d ever see them again? Finally, the moment of our departure arrived, and we loaded suitcases, books, games, camping equipment, and a tent into the car and bravely drove off. We bravely drove off again two hours later after we’d returned home to get the purse and traveler’s checks Mom had forgotten. David and I were always a little nervous when using gas station bathrooms if Mom was driving while Dad slept:” You stand outside the door and play lookout while I go, and I’ll stand outside the door and play lookout while you go.” I had terrible pictures in my mind: “Honey, where are the kids?” “What?! Oh, Gosh… I thought they were being awfully quiet.” We were never actually left behind in a strange city, but we weren’t about to take any chances. On the fourth or fifth night, we had trouble finding a hotel with a vacancy. After driving in vain for some time, Mom suddenly got a great idea: Why didn’t we find a house with a likely-looking backyard and ask if we could set up tent there? David and I became nervous. To our great relief, Dad turned down the idea. Mom never could understand our objections. If a strange family showed up on her front doorsteps, Mom would have been delighted. She thinks everyone in the world as nice as she is. We finally found a vacancy in the next town. Para1: The next day we remembered the brand-new tent we had brought with us. Para2: We drove through several states and saw lots of great sights along the way. 1. 有爱、可爱却又心不在焉的、健忘的 2. 我们出发的时刻到来了 3. 装进车里 4. 开走 5. 望风 6. 异常安静 7. 有空房间的旅馆 8. 徒劳 9. 一个看起来比较可以的后院 10. 让我们松了一口气的是 11. 拒绝了这个想法 12. 理解我们的反对 【读后续写解析】
原文画线单词对后面情节发展做了铺垫和提示:absent-minded, forgetful, nice 点明了妈妈的性格特征;camping, tent, trip, trouble 提示了重点情节信息;David, Mom, Dad 说明了故事人物信息。
第一段开头句:我们拿出来新买的帐篷
Q1: Did we use it? Was there any disagreement about using the tent? Q2: Where did we put up the tent? How was the camping place? Q3: How did we feel about the camping?
第二段开头句:我们愉快地欣赏路边的景色 Q4: How can the great sights be described in detail?
Q5: What else did we experience along the trip apart from the great sights? Q6: Did we successfully make it to our grandparents’ place?
首先,根据文章当中第二段内容比较开心的基调,第一段的故事情节应该比较偏向正面感情色彩,例如:我们在露营过程中一起搭建帐篷的开心时光或露营过程中的趣事(尤其是前文有铺垫妈妈是个forgetful的人,这一点也可以埋下伏笔来表达后面过程中由于妈妈健忘而带来的趣事);
其次,第二段开头说来描述欣赏风景:此处可以用一些描述景色环境的表达来烘托下氛围,但是第二段不能仅仅只能有景色描述;例如:这里可以用实写和虚写结合的方式,看到景色(同时回忆往事),最终把故事的落脚点放在“家人的感情”“亲情”“生活的乐趣”“与妈妈一起的趣事”等角度。
Paragraph 1:
The next day we remembered the brand-new tent we had brought with us. Mom insisted that we should make full use of it. David and I looked at Dad, who smiled and nodded in agreement. Then we spent a whole afternoon seeking a nice camping place and finally set up our tent before night fell. It was the first time that I had thought Mom could be wise as I admired our stunning tent. “Oh, I forgot the pillows!” Mom screamed. Despite the ache in my neck, we had an unforgettable night.
Paragraph 2:
We drove through several states and saw lots of great sights along the way. The limitless green grass, the wandering sheep, the setting sun and the countless stars above the curtain of night kept me spellbound. Not only did we enjoy the picturesque scenery, but we were also happy to have forgetful and absent-minded Mom around, who brought lots of laughter to our trip. I really love her. Eventually, we arrived at our grandparents’ place, all four of us and not a single one left behind.
