Question

【題目】閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)所給情節(jié)進(jìn)行續(xù)寫，使之構(gòu)成一個完整的故事。

Forty-three years seems like a long time to remember the name of a mere acquaintance. I have forgotten the name of the old lady, who was a customer on the paper route in my hometown when I was a twelve-year-old boy. Yet it seems like just yesterday that she taught me a lesson in forgiveness which I shall never forget.

On a Saturday afternoon, a friend and I were throwing stones onto the roof of the old lady’s house. The object of our play was to observe how the stones changed to missiles (導(dǎo)彈) as they rolled to the edge of the roof and shot out into the yard like comets (彗星) falling from the sky.

I found myself a perfectly smooth stone and sent it for a ride. The stone was too smooth, however, so it slipped from my hand as I let it go and headed straight not for the roof but for a small window on the old lady's back porch (走廊). At the sound of broken glass, we knew we were in trouble and ran away.

I was too scared about getting caught that I was concerned about the old lady with the broken window all the time that night. However, a few days later, when I was sure that I hadn’t been discovered, I started to feel guilty for her misfortune. She still greeted me with a smile each day when I gave her the paper, but I was no longer able to look into her eyes.

I made up my mind that I would save my paper delivery money, and in three weeks I had the seven dollars that I thought would cover the cost of her window. I put the money in an envelope with a note explaining that I was sorry for breaking her window and hoped that the seven dollars would cover the cost for repairing it.

Answer 1

【答案】Paragraph 1:

I waited until it was dark. Then I set off. Along my paper route, I became more and more nervous, and my steps getting slower and slower. The darkness like evil almost stopped my breath. Seeing the cold wind shouting towards the broken window caused by the stone, I put the envelope I didn’t sign through the letter slot in her door. My soul felt redeemed and once again, I could have the freedom of looking straight into the old lady’s kind eyes.

Paragraph 2:

The next day, I handed the old lady her paper. She greeted me warmly as usual. However, she took out the envelope when I was about to leave. She told me she had read my note. She knew that it was me! Shocked as I was, I stood like a stone. Wearing a big smile, she said, “That was not a big deal, my dear. You have regretted for it and apologized, which has already ended the mistake.” She returned me the seven dollars and I was sure there was something glorious shinning in her eyes. I got to know it was the grace of forgiveness.

【解析】

這是一篇讀后續(xù)寫作文。通過閱讀所給文章可知，文章主要記敘了作者在四十多年前的一次經(jīng)歷。作者和一個朋友朝一位老婦人的屋頂上扔石頭，然后看著它們滾落下來，結(jié)果卻打碎了老婦人的玻璃，逃跑后作者每天給她報紙時，她仍然微笑著向自己打招呼，作者開始感到內(nèi)疚，于是決定攢下送報紙賺下的錢，放在一個信封里并寫下小紙條，告訴她用這筆錢支付換玻璃的費用。

續(xù)寫部分分為兩段，第一段開頭是：我等到天黑。后文應(yīng)當(dāng)描寫作者出發(fā)了，沿著送報紙的路線走向老婦人家。作者很緊張，看到破著洞的窗戶，作者幾乎屏住了呼吸，把沒有簽名的信封通過投信口放進(jìn)去了。感覺自己挽回了做錯的事情，可以再次輕松地面對這位老婦人了。第二段開頭是：第二天，我遞給老婦人報紙。后文可以描寫她像往常一樣熱情地和作者打招呼。但是當(dāng)作者要離開時，她取出信封并告訴作者她知道這些事情和作者有關(guān)。 這讓作者震驚不已，但她告訴作者那沒什么大不了的，還把七美元還給了作者，作者就此感受到了寬恕的力量。注意要使用5個以上短文中標(biāo)有下劃線的關(guān)鍵詞語。
