7、和词汇的丰富性和准确性”以及“上下文的连贯性”。根据这些规定,我们会发现读后续写有如下特点:(1)读后续写不是随心所欲,是要在引导语(开头语)的帮助下完成续写部分。如样题中规定“应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语(共10处)”。这些关键词语类似于传统写作中的要点提示,如人物、地点、事件,但是不同点在于这些关键词语并不必全用上。这样学生可根据自己的情况,有很大的自主权。另外,所续写部分不能脱离各自段落的首句开头语。这些开头语与传统写作中的开头语类似,在某种程度上引导学生思路的发展方向。(2)读后续写多以记叙文、故事类文章或者夹叙夹议类文章为主,故事情节曲折起伏,但是,故事的逻辑性比较强。这
8、样学生能够根据提示词语,顺着原来文章的思路续写文章,并适当发散。(3)读后续写要求读写并重。与阅读理解题一样,读后续写同样需要对本篇文章精确理解,这样所续写部分才不至于偏离主题,就这方面而言有点类似阅读理解题中对文章后续发展的推断,如:What would happen next?(4)所给文章的未完部分的思路和内容并不一定是唯一的,考生可以根据自己对文章的理解,从而对文章的结尾有不同的诠释。(1)精读文章,确定文章线索。每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路,通过精读文章,找到该篇文章的写作线索,如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等,这样有利于学生“顺藤摸瓜(结尾)”。(2)仔细审题,明确续写要求。一
9、般短文后面的“注意”都有对此次短文续写的具体要求,如:词数限制、使用几处标有下划线的关键词语、续写段落的首句提示,这样学生可以做到“心中有数”。(3)回扣原文,揣摩续写思路。根据文章后面的要求,再次快速回读短文,抓住文章的思路,结合段首的提示语,最终确定续写段落的思路,同时结合文章画线词语的提示,确定续写段落的内容。(4)拟写草稿,修改错词病句。在确定了思路和内容之后,最关键的就是结合提示词语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时,注意句子结构的多样性,语言的丰富性,并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用,使上下文连贯。(5)誊写文字,务必做到“字迹工整、清晰”。阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头
10、语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。注意:续写的词数应为150左右。I went up to the roof for a break after studying for an hour and watched the 50 or so people swimming in the natural rock pool below our house.It was a sunny daya blue,cloudless sky over a calm sea.But then,as I looked in the distance,I discovered a series of three
