（注：根据全国卷读后续写的特点，删除了原题中的划线词及续写要求）One fall，my wife Elli and I had a single goal：to photograph polar bears. We were staying at a research camp outside“ the polar bear capital of the world”—the town of Churchill in Manitoba，Canada.Taking pictures of polar bears is amazing but also dangerous. Polar bears—like all wild animals—should be photographed from a safe distance. When I’m face to face with a polar bear，I like it to be through a camera with a telephoto lens. But sometimes，that is easier said than done. This was one of those times.As Elli and I cooked dinner，a young male polar bear who was playing in a nearby lake sniffed，and smelled our garlic bread.The hungry bear followed his nose to our camp，which was surrounded by a high wire fence. He pulled and bit the wire. He stood on his back legs and pushed at the wooden fence posts.Terrified，Elli and I tried all the bear defense actions we knew. We yelled at the bear，hit pots hard，and fired blank shotgun shells into the air. Sometimes loud noises like these will scare bears off. Not this polar bear though—he just kept trying to tear down the fence with his massive paws（爪子）.I radioed the camp manager for help. He told me a helicopter was on its way，but it would be 30 minutes before it arrived. Making the best of this close encounter（相遇），I took some pictures of the bear.Elli and I feared the fence wouldn’t last through 30 more minutes of the bears punishment. The camp manager suggested I use pepper spray. The spray burns the bears eyes，but doesn't hurt them. So I approached our uninvited guest slowly and，through thefence，sprayed him in the face. With an angry roar（吼叫），the bear ran to the lake to wash his eyes.注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右;2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。

2020年全国三卷高考作文英语读后续写Title: A Continuation of the 2020 National College Entrance Examination EssayAs I sat down at my desk to continue my English exam, the words of the prompt echoed in my mind: "In the face of challenges, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and discouraged. However, it is during these moments that we truly discover our strength and resilience. Write a continuation of this story, exploring how the character overcomes their challenges and grows stronger as a result."Taking a deep breath, I began to envision the character's journey ahead. With determination in their heart and a fire in their eyes, they faced the obstacles before them with unwavering courage.The character, named Sarah, found herself at a crossroads in her life. Having just lost her job and facing financial difficulties, she felt lost and defeated. However, she refused to give up. With the support of her friends and family, she decided to pursue her passion for writing and started a blog to share her experiences with the world.As Sarah poured her heart and soul into her writing, she discovered a newfound sense of purpose and drive. The positive feedback she received from her readers encouraged her to keep going, even when times were tough. Through her writing, she was able to inspire others who were facing similar challenges and show them that they were not alone.As the months went by, Sarah's blog gained popularity and she was offered a book deal to publish her memoir. Despite her initial doubts, she embraced the opportunity with open arms and poured her heart into creating a book that would inspire and uplift others.Through her writing journey, Sarah not only overcame her challenges but also grew stronger and more resilient than ever before. She learned that true strength comes from within and that it is during the darkest moments that we find our brightest light.As the clock ticked on, I finished my continuation of the story with a sense of pride and accomplishment. Just like Sarah, I had faced my own challenges and emerged stronger on the other side. And as I submitted my essay, I knew that no matter what obstacles lie ahead, I would face them head-on with courage anddetermination. For it is in overcoming challenges that we discover our true strength and resilience.。

2020高中英语新高考原创模拟作文练习一My Mom Only Had One Eye1 M y mom only had one eye. I hated her. She was such an embarrassment.2She ran a small shop at a flea market and collected old clothes and some other things to sell for the money we needed. Once during elementary school, it was field day, and my mom came. I was so embarrassed and wondered how could she do this to me? I threw her a hateful look and ran out. The ne xt day at school, my schoolmates asked me, “Your mom only has one eye?!” and taunted me.3 I was so angry with my mom and wished that she would just disappear from this world. So I said to my mom, “Why don’t you have the other eye?!If you’re only gonna ma ke me a laughingstock!” My mom did not respond, I guess I felt a little bad, but at the same time, I felt so good to have had said what I wanted to say. Maybe it was because my mom hadn’t punished me, I didn’t think that I had hurt her feelings very badly.4 For the words I had said to her earlier, there was something pinching at me in the corner of my heart. Even so, I hated my one-eyed mom and our desperate poverty. I told myself that I would become successful in the near future, so I studied very hard. Later I got accepted by the Seoul University, I left my mother and came to Seoul to study. Then I got married there.5 I bought a house of my own. Then I had kids, too. Now I am living happily as a successful man. I enjoy the life in Seoul because it’s a place that doesn’t remind me of my mom and my past. This kind of happiness was getting bigger and bigger, until one day someone knocked at my door. It was my mom! And still with her one eye! It felt as if the whole sky was falling apart on me. My little girl ran away, scared of my mom’s eye.6 I screamed at her, “Who are you? I don’t know you! How dare you come to my house and scare my daughter!” To this, my mom quietly answered, “Oh, I’m so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address,” and she disappeared out of sight.Notes:1 embarrassment 难堪，窘迫。

2020高中英语新高考读后续写的升华：删繁就简三秋树，领异标新二月花引言我在近日提出读后续写的两个概念。

读后续写的内容可以分为：Be a story; Beyond a story.所谓Be a story,就是把故事说完整即可，不一定要突出一定的道理，类似于情景剧《老友记》，娱乐一下；而Beyond a story是基于一定的主旨（theme)去挖掘人物的内心情感，所有情节的拓展都是服务于主旨。

从浙江的历年读后续写材料和提供的范文看，文章并没有突出一定的主旨，纯粹的Be a story。

譬如2016年的妻子赌气和丈夫旅游中分开，然后迷路。

续写也是最后两人又和好。

包括今年的儿子上学，父母给家里的狗又添了一个伙伴，然后儿子回家。

这里面的故事就是单纯地围绕人物线展开，把故事讲完了，就结束了。

我认为无论是be a story还是beyond a story，只要把人物形象刻画出来了，并且续写部分的想象合情合理，都是达到了高考的写作要求。

但有人说，beyond a story对学生来说，太难了。

其实这就误解了我的意思。

就具体写而言，要想写好，都不容易。

甚至be a story对学生的遣词造句要求更高。

因为你完全靠情节胜出，就要在用词上卯足劲，否则这篇文章就干巴巴的。

不仅仅没有思想，而且语言平庸，味同嚼蜡。

而beyond a story，你虽然语言平庸一点，但是你的思想非常动人，这就弥补了语言表达的匮乏。

以浙江作文题为例材料大致是：丈夫和妻子去旅游，来到森林里，二人意见不合，妻子赌气跑开了。

然后突然发现迷路了。

此时看到头上的飞机，估计是找她，但无法让它看到。

续写部分的范文是：天黑了，妻子找了写果实吃了后睡去；天亮，又和丈夫重逢。

我的想法：这几年的续写材料说实话，不知道是不是命题人觉得学生水平有限，选材都没有一定的思想深度，即使和完形填空比都差一截。

作为考生，如果要从思想上拔高，就要如此考虑，由于文章主要写妻子的活动，人物此时就一个：妻子。

2020年三卷高考作文英语读后续写全文共3篇示例，供读者参考篇1Title: A continuation of the 2020 Senior High School Entrance Examination English Writing SectionAs the clock ticked away, Sara continued to stare at the blank sheet of paper in front of her. The prompt for the writing section of the 2020 Senior High School Entrance Examination had left her feeling both excited and nervous. Taking a deep breath, she picked up her pen and began to write.The topic was about the importance of perseverance in achieving success. Sara knew she had a lot to say on the subject, as she had faced many challenges in her life that had taught her the value of perseverance.In her essay, she talked about how when she was younger, she struggled with mathematics. She would spend hours trying to understand the concepts but would often end up feeling frustrated and defeated. However, she didn't give up. Through determination and hard work, she slowly began to see improvement in her grades.Sara also shared a personal story about how she had to overcome her fear of public speaking. She recounted a time when she had to present a project in front of her classmates and how she stumbled over her words and lost her train of thought. Instead of letting this experience discourage her, Sara decided to join the debate club and practice speaking in front of others. Eventually, she gained confidence and was able to speak in public without fear.She concluded her essay by emphasizing the importance of perseverance in the face of challenges. She believed that with dedication and persistence, anyone could achieve their goals and realize their dreams.As Sara finished writing her essay, she felt a sense of pride and accomplishment. She knew that whatever the outcome of the exam, she had given it her best effort and had shared a piece of herself with the world.And so, she confidently handed in her paper and walked out of the exam room, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead with courage and perseverance.篇2In the 2020 Gaokao (National College Entrance Examination) English exam, one of the writing tasks required students to read a passage and then write a continuation of the story based on the given information. The passage was about a group of students who were working on a science project involving creating a new invention. The students faced challenges and setbacks but eventually succeeded in creating a device that could change people's lives.Here is a possible continuation of the story:As the students put the finishing touches on their invention, they could hardly contain their excitement. The device they had created had the potential to revolutionize the way people lived their lives. It was a small, portable device that could generate electricity from solar power, providing a clean and sustainable energy source for households and communities.The students knew that their invention had the power to change the world for the better, but they also knew that they would face challenges in bringing it to market. They would need to find investors, navigate the complexities of the energy industry, and overcome the skepticism of those who doubted their abilities.But the students were determined and passionate about their invention. They believed in the positive impact it could have on the environment and people's lives. With hard work, dedication, and a little bit of luck, they were confident that they could turn their invention into a reality.Months passed, and the students worked tirelessly to refine their invention and secure funding. Finally, they were ready to launch their product to the world. The device was met with enthusiasm and praise, and soon, orders were pouring in from all over the country.The students' invention was a success, and they were hailed as young innovators who had made a significant contribution to society. But for the students, the real reward was knowing that they had made a difference in the world and inspired others to follow their dreams.In conclusion, the journey of the students from facing challenges to creating a groundbreaking invention demonstrates the power of perseverance, passion, and teamwork. With determination and belief in themselves, anyone can achieve great things and make a positive impact on the world. The students' story serves as an inspiration to all, reminding us that no dream is too big and no obstacle is too great to overcome.篇3Title: Continue writing based on the 2020 English Reading Comprehension Section of the GaokaoIn the 2020 Gaokao English reading comprehension section, students were presented with a passage about the impact of technology on society. The passage discussed both the positive and negative aspects of technological advancements, highlighting the need for balance and ethical considerations in the use of technology.Continuing from where the passage left off, we can explore further the consequences of unchecked technological progress. While technology has brought about countless benefits to society, such as improved communication, healthcare, and education, it has also led to various ethical dilemmas and challenges.One of the major concerns raised in the passage was the issue of privacy in the digital age. With the widespread use of surveillance cameras, social media, and data collection, individuals are increasingly exposed to privacy invasions. This not only raises questions about individual liberty and autonomy but also poses risks of data breaches and cybercrimes. Astechnology continues to advance, the protection of privacy becomes an urgent and pressing concern.Moreover, the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation has also raised concerns about job displacement and inequality. While AI has the potential to revolutionize industries and increase efficiency, it also threatens to replace human workers in various sectors. This has led to growing calls for policies and regulations to address the impact of AI on the workforce and to ensure that the benefits of technological progress are shared equitably among all members of society.In addition to these challenges, the passage also touched upon the issue of digital addiction and its impact on mental health. The constant use of smartphones, social media, and online gaming has been linked to a range of mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, and loneliness. As technology becomes more integrated into our daily lives, it is essential to promote healthy digital habits and mindfulness to prevent the negative effects of excessive screen time.In conclusion, the advancement of technology presents both opportunities and challenges for society. It is crucial for individuals, policymakers, and technologists to work together to harness the benefits of technology while mitigating its negativeconsequences. By promoting ethical considerations, protecting privacy rights, addressing job displacement, and promoting mental well-being, we can create a more sustainable and human-centered approach to technological development. Only through responsible and balanced use of technology can we ensure a better future for ourselves and the generations to come.。

My husband, Robert Stone and I were enjoying a peaceful afternoon together in Barbados — our vacation destination. It was sunny and warm, and we decided it was the perfect time to go for an ocean dip.When we were floating around, I said, “What a nice holiday! Let’s swim out, not that far but enough to be out of our depth.” But we hadn’t considered just how strong the current was on that particular day. Although we had visited Barbados several times, we didn’t realize the specific area we floated to was known for its strong current.Noticing that we were floating in the direction of the neighboring beach, I decided to swim toward the beach we came from, against the current. I soon realized that my husband was falling behind and was suddenly too far away to even hear me. I attempted to swim to the shore to get help but struggled to push past the current. I just couldn’t get anywhere and began to scream out for a lifeguard. But no one came after a few minutes.Just then I saw two teenage girls boogie-boarding near the shore. “Help! Help!” I screamed. Hearing my cries for help, the girls swam toward me and helped pull me onto the boogie board. One girl told me to hold ontight and tied the boogie board tether (拴绳) to her wrist. The other girl was by her side for support. They managed to swim to the shore and brought me to safety.Grateful but still scared, I repeated that my husband was stuck farther out in the ocean. I asked for a lifeguard. The girls told me there wasn’t a lifeguard around, and they would go get him. “You can’t do that!” I told them, “Strong current!” The girls reassured me that they were in Barbados as part of a swimming camp and insisted that they were both experienced in the water.注意：（1）续写词数应为150个左右；（2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

2020年新高考全国卷英语读后续写范文2020 National College Entrance Examination (GAOKAO) English Reading Comprehension and Writing---Reading Comprehension:Read the following text and complete the tasks below.The Power of KindnessKindness is a quality that we all possess to some degree, yet it is often overlooked in the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. In a world that is becoming increasingly fast-paced and competitive, acts of kindness can seem like a luxury that we simply do not have time for. However, research has shown that kindness not only benefits others, but also has a positive impact on our own well-being.Studies have shown that acts of kindness can have a profound effect on our mental and physical health. When we perform acts of kindness, our brains release the feel-good chemicals serotonin and oxytocin, which have been linked to feelings of happiness and well-being. Furthermore, kindness hasbeen found to reduce stress, improve our immune system, and even increase our life span.But the benefits of kindness go beyond our own well-being. Kindness has the power to create a ripple effect, spreading positivity and goodwill to those around us. When we perform acts of kindness, we inspire others to do the same, creating a cycle of generosity and compassion that can have a lasting impact on our communities and the world at large.Writing Task:Write a continuation of the text above, expanding on the idea of the ripple effect of kindness and discussing how small acts of kindness can make a big difference in the world.In today's busy world, it is easy to become consumed by our own problems and responsibilities, losing sight of the power that even the smallest act of kindness can have. Whether it is a smile to a stranger, a kind word to a friend, or a helping hand to someone in need, these small gestures can have a ripple effect that reaches far beyond our immediate surroundings.One of the most powerful aspects of kindness is its ability to inspire others. When we witness acts of kindness, whether big or small, it has a profound impact on our own behavior. We aremore likely to pay it forward, spreading the kindness to others in our own lives. This ripple effect can create a chain reaction of positivity that can transform not only our own lives, but also the lives of those around us.Furthermore, acts of kindness have the power to break down barriers and bring people together. In a world that is often divided by politics, religion, and other differences, kindness is a universal language that transcends these boundaries. When we show kindness to others, we...(To continue the text, please download the full document)。
