读后续写a doll for great-grandmother

A Doll for Great-GrandmotherWhen my grandfather died, my 83-year-old grandmother, once so full of life, slowly began to fade. No longer able to manage a home of her own, she moved in with my mother, where she was visited often by other members of her large, loving family (two children, eight grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren). Although she still had her good days, it was often hard to arouse her interest.But one chilly December afternoon three years ago, my daughter Meagan, then eight, and I were settling in for a long visit with “GG”, as the family calls her, when she noticed that Meagan was carrying her favorite doll.“I, too, had a special doll when I was a little girl,” she told Meagan. “I got it one Christmas when I was about your age. I lived in an old farmhouse in Maine, with Mom, Dad and my four sisters, and the very first gift I opened that Christmas was the most beautiful doll you’d ever want to see.”“She had an exquisite, hand-painted porcelain face, and her long brown hair was pulled back with a big pink bow. Her eyes were blue as blue could be, and they opened and closed. I remember she had a body of kidskin, and her arms and legs bent at the joints.”GG’s voice dropped low, taking on an almost reverent tone. “My doll was dressed in a pretty pink gown, trimmed with fine lace. But what I especially remember was her petticoat. It was fine linen, trimmed with rows and rows of delicate lace.And the tiny buttons on her boots were real. … Getting such a fine doll was like a miracle for a little farm girl like me — my parents must have had to sacrifice so much to afford it. But how happy I was that morning!”GG’s eyes filled and her voice shook with emotion as she recalled that Christmas of long ago. “I played with my doll all morning long. She was such abeautiful doll. … And then it happened. My mother called us to the dining room for Christmas dinner and I laid my new doll down, ever so gently, on the hall table. But as I went to join the family at the table, I heard a loud crash.”“I hardly had to turn around — I knew it was my precious doll.I just knew it. And it was. Her lace petticoat had hung down from the table just enough for my baby sister to reach up and pull on it. When I ran in from the dining room, there lay my beautiful doll on the floor, her face smashed into a dozen pieces. I can still see my mother trying to put my poor doll together again. But it couldn’t be done. She was gone forever.”A few years later, GG’s baby sister was also gone, she told Meagan, a victim of pneumonia. Now the tears in her eyes spilled over — tears, I knew, not only for a lost doll and a lost sister, but for a lost time.Subdued for the rest of the visit, Meagan was no sooner in the car going home than she exclaimed, “Mom, I have a great idea! Let’s get GG a new doll for Christmas, one exactly like the doll that got broken. Then she won’t cry when she thinks about it.”My heart filled with pride as I listened to my compassionate little daughter. But where would we find a doll to match GG’s fond memories?Where there’s a will, as they say, there’s a way. When I told my best friends, Liz and Chris, about my problem, Liz put me in touch with a local dollmaker who made doll heads, hands and feet of a ceramic that closely resembled the old porcelain ones. From her I commissioned a doll head in the style of three-quarters of a century ago — making sure to specify “big blue eyes that opened and closed,” and hands and feet. From a doll supply house I ordered a long brown wig and a kidskin body, and Meagan and I shopped for fabric, lace and ribbon to duplicate the outfit GG had so lovingly described. Liz volunteered to put the doll together, and as the last days before Christmas raced by, Chris helped me make the doll’s outfit, completewith lacy petticoat. And while Liz, Chris and I searched for doll “boots with real buttons,” Meagan wrote and illustrated the story of the lost doll.Finally, our creation was finished. To our eyes it was perfect. But, of course, there was no way it could be exactly like the doll GG had loved so much and lost. Would she think it looked anything like it?On Christmas Eve, Meagan and I carried our gaily wrapped gift to GG. “It’s for you,” Meagan said, “but first you have to read the story that goes with it.”“Read it out loud,”we demanded. GG no sooner got through the first page than her voice cracked and she was unable to go on, but Meagan took over where she left off. Then it was time to open her present.I’ll never forget the look on GG’s face as she lifted the doll and held it to her chest. Once again her tears fell, but this time they were tears of joy. Cradling the doll in her frail arms, she repeated over and over again, “She’s exactly like my old doll, exactly like her.”And perhaps she wasn’t saying that just to be kind. Perhaps however impossible it seemed, we had managed to produce a close copy of the doll she remembered. But as I watched my eight-year-old daughter and her great-grandmother examining the doll together, I thought of a likelier explanation. What GG really recognized, perhaps, was the love that inspired the gift. And love, wherever it comes from, always looks the same.。

送给曾祖母的洋娃娃1、我爷爷去世后，我83岁的奶奶渐渐失去了原有的活力。

由于奶奶无法再照顾自己，所以她搬去和我妈妈一起住。

我们一家是个充满爱的大家庭（奶奶有两个孩子，8个孙辈，22个曾孙辈，还有两个玄孙辈），大家经常去看望她。

尽管奶奶的日子过得挺舒适，她却对什么事都提不起兴趣。

2、三年前十二月里的一天下午，天气阴冷，我和当时才8岁的女儿米根去看望GG（家里人都这么称呼她），并在那儿住了一段时间。

奶奶看见米根抱着她心爱的洋娃娃。

3、“小时候我也有一个很特别的洋娃娃，”奶奶告诉米根，“那是我的圣诞礼物，那时我和你现在差不多大。

我和父母、四个姐妹住在缅因州的一个老农场里。

那年圣诞我打开的第一份礼物是一个非常漂亮的娃娃，那么漂亮，见过之后你也许不会再想看别的洋娃娃了。

”4、“洋娃娃有一张精致的、手绘的瓷脸，长长的棕色头发用一个粉红色蝴蝶结束在脑后，眼睛是标准的蓝色，还眨巴眨巴的。

我还记得她的身体是用小山羊皮做的，手脚关节还可以动呢。

”5、GG的声音忽然沉了下去，她用一种几乎是虔诚的语调在叙说。

“我的洋娃娃穿着一件漂亮的粉红礼服，边上绣着精致的蕾丝。

我印象最深刻的是她穿的亚麻布料的衬裙，上边绣着一排排精致的蕾丝。

她靴子上的小钮扣还是真的……对于我这个农家女儿来说，得到这样一个可爱的洋娃娃简直就是一个奇迹，为了买她，我的父母一定牺牲了很多。

那天早上我太高兴了。

”6、GG的眼眶湿润了，她用颤抖的声音叙说着很久以前的那个圣诞节。

“整个上午我都在玩这个洋娃娃，她太漂亮了……然而悲剧发生了。

妈妈叫我们去饭厅吃圣诞晚餐，我轻轻地把洋娃娃放在厅里的桌子上。

我走过去和家人一起吃饭，猛然听见一声巨响。

”7、“我不用回头看就知道那是我的宝贝洋娃娃。

我能感觉到。

果然没错。

洋娃娃的蕾丝衬裙垂到桌子旁，刚好我的小妹妹够得着，把她拉了下来。

我从饭厅冲过去，只见我的洋娃娃躺在地上，脸摔成了十几块。

我还记得妈妈正试着帮我把那可怜的洋娃娃重新拼起来。

Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn’t help crying sadly when she thought of the scolding (责骂) from her mother. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt hungry and wished for something to eat, but it was impossible for her, since she had nothing with her. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.The seller noticed the young girl and asked “Hey, do you want to have the noodles?”“Oh, yes ... but I don’t have money on me ...” she replied.“That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man, “come in.”The seller brought her a bowl of tasty noodles. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently.“What is it?” asked the man kindly.“I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears, “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother, drove me out of the house. She is so merci less compared to a stranger!”Hearing the words, the seller smiled “I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times she cooked for you? Have you expressed your gratitude to her?”Jenny sat there, speechless, she remembered mother’s familiar face. “Why did I not think of that? I appreciated a bowl of noodles from a stranger, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.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。

A GIFT FOR GRANDPAThe summer vacation was coming. Jack and his brother Berlin were filled with excitement as they thought of visiting their grandparents again.The big day came at last. After the happy family got ready, they set out for the grandparents’ home eagerly. On the way, the brothers were excitedly talking about the fun they had with their grandparents.A little blue house with a tall white chimney finally appeared. Behind the property was the forest carrying their good memories with Grandpa. They arrived at the driveway, at the end of which Grandpa was waiting for them joyfully.Jack and Berlin each gave Grandma a big hug and then swept to the living room, shouting excitedly “Grandpa, we are back!”Seeing his grandsons, Grandpa was wild with joy and tried to get up with all his strength from the chair but in vain. A helpless expression flashed across his face. Grandma explained that his health was declining rapidly and that he maybe couldn’t stand up on his own forever. But Grandpa declared stubbornly (倔强地), “I can!” Certainly, he was stuck in his boyish way. Mum and Grandparents were happy to meet again after a long time. They sat together and chatted about what happened recently.The brothers were soon bored with adult conversation, went out and wandered into the forest. Tall trees stretched up to the heavens with large branches crossing each other, while young ones rose straight like soldiers. Grandpa was once a great explorer full of wisdom. He could tell where the birds came from only by their calls and songs. The trees, birds, lizards, lots of bugs… How many merry moments they spent with Grandpa in the kingdom!But now Grandpa couldn’t get up. This made them worried. “We need to think out a way to cheer him up,” Jack said. “Grandpa is a bird lover, so we can catch him a bird,” Berlin suggested. “But he hates birds being caged!” Jack shook his head.Then a bright idea came to Jack’s mind. “Why not make a cane (拐杖) out of a young tree?!”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；Paragraph 1: Berlin thought it was a good idea.Paragraph 2: Jack and Berlin handed the cane to Grandpa.【试题信息】试卷名称体裁主题语境词数潍坊市2022年高考模拟试题记叙文人与社会正文英文词数344，两个词给了中文提示，续写第一段首句7个单词，续写第二段首句8个单词。
