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(gè)完整的故事。

A young man had bought an old house that was in bad shape, but he and his wife believed they could restore it. They immediately went to work. Their goal was to have the old building look best for New Year’s Eve get-together.

Just two days before New Year, however, a storm swept through the area, leaving a hole in the wall of the house. There was obviously no time to repair the damage before New Year. Then, the sad couple attended a local auction(拍賣)that afternoon. One of the items put up for bids was an old gold-and-ivory-colored tablecloth. Seized by an inspiration, the young man was the highest bidder at $ 6.50. His idea was to hang the cloth to cover the ragged hole.

On the day before New Year, it was snowy. As the young man unlocked the house door, he noticed an old woman standing at the bus stop. He knew the bus wouldn’t be there within at least half an hour, so he invited her inside to keep warm.

When the woman walked in and saw the tablecloth, she rushed at it and said excitedly, “It’s mine. It is my tablecloth.” She told the surprised man its history and even showed him her name in one comer of the tablecloth. She and her husband had once lived in Vienna, Austria, and their village was hit by a deadly disease. So they decided to flee to Switzerland, but her husband told her to leave first, saying he had something urgent to deal with. A few days later, it was reported that the bus her husband took fell off the cliff(懸崖)and he was never to be found. Her husband was believed to have died. Touched by her story, the young couple asked about her address, planning to send the tablecloth to her after New Year. As the bus came, she left.

In the candlelight of New Year’s Eve, the tablecloth looked even more beautiful. As the man’s friends left the house, they thanked the man for his arrangement and mentioned how beautiful the house looked.

Answer 1

【答案】Paragraph 1:

One old gentleman stayed, admiring the tablecloth. At the same time, he said to the young man, “What a coincidence. Many years ago my wife and I also owned such a tablecloth. But we lived in Vienna then.” On hearing these words, the young man told the old man about his encounter with the old woman in the house that snowy day. “Can it be true that she is alive?” asked the old man, tears streaming down his cheeks. “How can I find her?” Fortunately, the young man remembered her address.

Paragraph 2:

The young man drove the old man to that old woman’s home. Together they knocked on her apartment door. When she opened it, both of them recognized each other immediately. Obviously, they were too surprised and excited to express themselves. With trembling hands, they hugged tightly. “I was told you had died. How did you find me?” the old woman said, “Thanks to that magical tablecloth,” the old man replied. The young man witnessed the tearful, joyful and thrilling reunion of the husband and wife.

【解析】

這是一篇讀后續(xù)寫作文。

通過閱讀所給文章可知，文章講述了一個(gè)年輕人買了一棟年久失修的老房子，但是他和他的妻子相信他們可以修復(fù)它。然而，就在新年的前兩天，一場暴風(fēng)雨席卷了這個(gè)地區(qū)，在房子的墻上留下了一個(gè)洞。年輕人拍賣下了一張桌布，想要掛起來蓋住那個(gè)破洞。新年的前一天，年輕人請一個(gè)等車的老婦人進(jìn)屋取暖，老婦人進(jìn)屋后看到了桌布，認(rèn)出了是自己的，并且講述了桌布背后的故事。

續(xù)寫部分分為兩段，第一段開頭是：老紳士呆在那里，欣賞著桌布。所以后文應(yīng)該是講述老先生也來到了年輕人的房間就是老婦人的丈夫，年輕人告訴他，他的妻子也曾經(jīng)來過，年輕人還記得她的地址。第二段開頭是：那個(gè)年輕人開車送那位老人到那位老太太家。本段應(yīng)該寫他們來到老婦人家里的事情，他們太驚訝和興奮了，無法表達(dá)自己的想法。多虧了那塊桌布才讓他們得以相逢。

續(xù)寫時(shí)要求使用5個(gè)以上短文中標(biāo)有下劃線的關(guān)鍵詞語增加了寫作難度，我們要熟悉所給劃線詞語，恰當(dāng)?shù)臅r(shí)候加以運(yùn)用。最后還要注意所續(xù)寫短文的詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；續(xù)寫完成后，請用下劃線標(biāo)出你所使用的關(guān)鍵詞語。按要求完成寫作任務(wù)。
