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。

“If mum finds out that I'm going to the beach, I'll be in big trouble.” I said to myself softly in a low voice.

I went downstairs slowly and tried to walk casually into the kitchen. As I was walking towards the back door, mum asked without looking up from her “dish-washing”, “Where are you going?” I answered back without hesitation,“ I am going to the garden to play.” After I got out of the kitchen, I breathed a sign of relief. My plan had worked out fine so far. I climbed the fence and jumped onto the muddy field next to my house and started running towards the bus stop at top speed,

After half an hour I was at the beach scanning the crowd for my friends, Jimmy and Bobby. Two young men were racing in the canoes (独木舟). After a while, I saw them near a coconut tree. I ran towards them and got into my swimming trunk (游泳裤). For about an hour, we played volleyball happily.

Suddenly, Bobby hit the ball too hard and the ball fell into the sea. Just as Bobby was going to pick up the ball, the tide came in and carried the ball further and further away from the shore. I wanted to show off my swimming skills so I declared to help get the ball for them.

I dived into the water and started swimming at a steady pace. After swimming for about ten minutes, I became tired but when I saw that the ball was only a few feet away from me, I put in

an extra burst of speed. However, just as I was going to get the ball, a very strong current swept the ball further away from me. At that moment, a string of weed （海草）tangled (缠绕) up with my feet and I could not swim properly.

I struggled to keep afloat but it was no use. “ If I had listened to my parents, this would never have happened,” I thought silently.

Paragraph 1

Finally, after struggling for a minute or two, I still got pulled underwater.

Answer 1

【答案】Paragraph 1

Finally, after struggling For a minute or two, I still got putted underwater. I told myself I should never give up. Then I pulled the weed again with great efforts. The weed finally broke. I swam back to the surface to take a deep breath. I saw two young men in canoes, racing each other. I was exhausted and shouted for help. The two men saw me and raced towards me. By the time they reached me, I had been already unconscious.

Paragraph 2

When I woke up, I was in an empty room lying on a bed. It was not until a doctor came into the room that I realized that I was in a hospital. Jimmy and Bobby told me the two young men brought me to the shore and sent me to the hospital. After a few minutes, my parents with half angry and half worried faces walked in. My parents scolded me for running out of the house secretly but were also glad that I was not seriously injured. I will never forget that terrifying experience. Neither will I ever want to show off again.

【解析】

前文提要：我挣扎着保持漂浮，但没有用。“如果我听了我父母的话，这是永远不会发生的，”我默默地想。

（1）第一段所给首句：Finally, after struggling for a minute or two, I still got pulled underwater.这是一句转折句，接下来应该是作者不放弃，勇敢地游出水面，求救，无论从何角度拓展，需注意与续写第二段首句呼应。

（2）第二段首句：When I woke up, I was in an empty room lying on a bed.这一句应该是转折句，既然作者醒来，说明他已经被救，接下来应该是作者躺在医院里，一定是通知了他的家人，父母来后一定会生气的，父母会责备他偷偷地跑出了房子，但也很高兴他没有受到严重的伤害。作者永远不会忘记那可怕的经历。他也不想再炫耀了。
