Question

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

On July 8, 2017, eight members of a family in total, were enjoying an evening together at the beach in Panhandle, Florida. As the sun sank lower on the horizon, the two boys Noah, 11, and Stephen, 8 swam into the waves without the grown-ups noticing. Soon they realized that the ocean had pulled them into the sea. After trying and failing to swim back, they started waving and screaming for help. But the lifeguards had been off duty for the evening.

The boys had been struggling for several minutes when Jacky and Tabatha, a couple from Georgia, heard them. They dived into the water and soon reached the two brothers. But after a few minutes, they were all trapped in a rip current (離岸流) — a powerful one that could sweep even the strongest swimmer out to sea! By then, some teenagers had heard the cry. One of the teens rushed into the water, grabbed Jacky, and pulled him back to shore. Meanwhile, Tabatha could feel herself being pulled farther out. She was already exhausted and beginning to feel desperate as she was trying to save both boys alone.

Onshore, Jacky was terrified. A man stopped. 'What’s wrong?' asked Shaun, who was heading back to his car. 'My wife is drowning!' Brittany said. Shaun immediately strode (大步跨) into the water. But several minutes later, a gaping 15 feet still lay between him and Tabatha and the boys. He knew that if he continued, he'd become another victim. He turned around to seek help.

It was about that time that Roberta, the boys' mother, returned from the bathroom and looked around for her children. She was shocked to spot them floating much farther out than they were allowed to go. She fought the waves to get to her screaming sons and the stranger who was trying to save them, but she quickly discovered it was nearly impossible to make headway in any direction. Looking around, Roberta sighed with relief to see some more people coming to help.

Answer 1

【答案】Paragraph 1

When they tried in vain to rescue the brothers and Tabatha, a risky idea came to them. To keep themselves from losing their footing in the rip current, they began holding on to one another to form a human chain extending from the beach all the way out to the struggling and Tabatha. They stayed linked tightly and managed to ensure they were safe by making their feet firmly planted in the sand. However, that required more links-probably dozens of them. Shaun spotted other swimmers on the beach and shouted, 'Don't just stand there! Come and help.'

Paragraph 2

By then, more swimmers had also noticed the group in trouble and rushed to join the human chain. One by one, link by link, total strangers walked into the waves and grasped one another by the wrists, determined that no one would die on that beach. At last, they made it and Tabatha and the two brothers were saved! 'Those people on the beach are angels on earth, 'said Roberta. 'Whether it is the first person or the last person in the chain, they are all our heroes, who helped get our family out of trouble. '

【解析】

這是一篇讀后續(xù)寫。文章主要講述一家八口在海邊度假時，兩個孩子不幸被海水卷入海中，其他人發(fā)現(xiàn)事故后主動救援的故事。

續(xù)寫分為兩段。第一段的開頭是：當他們盡力營救兄弟兩和Tabatha無果后，他們想到了一個冒險的方法。關(guān)鍵詞是“冒險的”，所以可以接著寫：他們手拉手形成“人鏈”，希望可以拉住那些受困的人，避免他們被暗流帶走。但似乎人手還不夠，他們朝游泳的人大喊，讓他們也過來幫忙。第二段的開頭是：更多游泳的人看到這種情況，都跑過來幫忙。關(guān)鍵詞是“人多力量大”，故可以接著寫：他們緊緊的相互拽著，終于可以夠得著受困的人。在他們的努力下，兩兄弟和Tabatha都被救上了岸。他們的媽媽對所有幫助的人表示感激。

用5個關(guān)鍵詞增加了寫作難度，考生應(yīng)熟悉下劃線的詞，在適當時候加以應(yīng)用。完成寫作后，關(guān)鍵詞要標注下劃線。
