Question

【题目】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。

The family had just moved to Rhode Island, and the young woman was feeling a little sad on that Sunday in May. After all, it was Mother's Day—and 800 miles separated her from her parents in Ohio.

She had called her mother that morning to wish her a happy Mother's Day, and her mother had mentioned how colorful the yard was now that spring had arrived. As they talked, the younger woman could almost smell the tantalizing aroma of purple lilacs (紫丁香) hanging on the big bush outside her parents' back door.

Later, when she mentioned to her husband how she missed those lilacs, he popped up from his chair. “I know where we can find you all you want,” he said. “Get the kids and come on.” So off they went, driving on the country roads of northern Rhode Island. Eventually, he stopped the car.

“Come with me,” he said. “Over that hill is an old cellar hole, and there are lilacs all around it. Go pick a few.”

There, on the top of the hill, were the towering lilacs bushes. While the man examined the cellar hole and tried to explain to the children what the house must have looked like, the woman had been cheered up, drifting among the lilacs. Carefully, she picked some out. She was in no hurry, admiring each blossom as a rare and delicate treasure.

Finally, though, they returned to their car for the trip home. When they were almost home, she suddenly shouted to her husband: “Stop the car. Stop right here!”

In a second, the woman was out of the car and hurrying up a nearby grassy slope with the lilacs still in her arms. At the top of the hill was a nursing home and, because it was such a beautiful spring day, the patients were outdoors, walking with relatives or sitting on the porch (走廊).

Answer 1

【答案】Paragrah 1: The young woman went to the end of the porch, where an elderly patient was sitting in her wheelchair, alone. Across the porch railing went the flowers, into the lap of the old woman. She lifted her head, and smiled. For a few moments, the two women chatted, both faces brightening up, and then the young woman turned and ran back to her family. As the car pulled away, the woman in the wheelchair waved, holding the lilacs tightly.

Paragrah 2: Curiosity was aroused among the kids and the husband. "Mom, "the kids asked, "who was that? Why did you give her our flowers?" Mother explained that she didn't know the old woman. But it was Mother's Day, and she seemed so alone, and who wouldn't be cheered by flowers? "Besides, "she added, "I have all of you, and I still have my mother, even if she is far away. That woman needed those flowers more than I did." This satisfied the kids, but not the husband, who was plotting a plan to plant some lilacs around their own yard for another beautiful spring.

【解析】

本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读所给文章可知，由于搬家的原因，女主人公在母亲节这天无法陪伴在妈妈身边，她思念母亲，也思念家里的丁香花。丈夫得知了她的想法，带全家人一起去山顶看丁香花，一家人都感觉到了快乐。

续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：年轻的女人走到了门廊的尽头，在那一位老人独自坐在轮椅上。所以应该写老人和女人之间发生了什么。要详细描述两人之间的情感交流，可以通过两人的表情或动作进行描写，文字要能表现出两人交流的融洽和快乐，以及离别时老人的感动。第二段开头是：孩子们和丈夫都很好奇。本段应该写我这样做的原因，我还有丈夫和孩子陪在身边，还有远方的妈妈，但老人时孤独的，她更需要丁香花带给她的快乐。同时也要描写孩子和丈夫对我做这件事的态度，他们是支持的。

续写时要求使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语增加了写作难度，我们要熟悉所给划线词语，恰当的时候加以运用。最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右；续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。按要求完成写作任务。
