兩美元可以用來買書，也可以用來幫助那些無家可歸的人……

One pleasant New Year's morning， Edward got up early and dressed himself very quickly. He wanted to be the first to wish everyone a happy New Year. He looked in every room， and shouted the words of welcome. He ran into the street to repeat them to those he might meet. When he came back， his father gave him two bright new silver dollars. His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore.

He left the house with a light heart， intending to buy the books. As he ran down the street， he saw a poor German family， the father， the mother， and three children trembling with cold.

“I wish you a happy New Year，” said Edward， as he was passing by. The man shook his head. “Do you belong to this country？” asked Edward. The man again shook his head， for he could not understand or speak English. But he pointed to his mouth， and to the children， as if to say， “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.” Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in a very difficult situation and required some help. He took out his dollars， and gave them to the poor family.

How their eyes sparkled （閃耀） with gratitude！ They said something in their language， which probably meant， “Thank you so much.”

When Edward came home， his father asked what book he had bought. He hung his head for a moment， but quickly looked up. “I couldn't afford to buy books，” said he. “I gave my money to some poor people， who seemed to be very hungry.”

寫作指導(dǎo)

一、語篇研讀

要想續(xù)寫內(nèi)容與所給材料內(nèi)容連貫、銜接緊密，我們必須充分了解所給材料的大意。本文是一篇記敘文，文章分析如下：

二、情節(jié)構(gòu)思

通讀全文后，我們可以知道文章的主題為助人為樂。再根據(jù)文章最后一段和續(xù)寫第一段，我們可以從以下幾個問題切入：

1. What's the attitude of Edward's father to Edward's action？

2. What may Edward's father want to know about the German family？

3. How would Edward explain in detail？3D9B4498-1711-4993-A5DD-CBB9F7CA5C7D

同時，結(jié)合續(xù)寫第二段的段首句“第二天，愛德華被他的爸爸叫住了”，以及文中提及的愛德華想要用父親給的兩美元去書店買心儀已久的書，我們可以從以下幾個問題切入來推測文章的結(jié)局：

1. Why did Edward's father stop Edward？

2. Would he do something special to praise Edward？

3. What did Edward want most according to the text？

4. How about the German family？

三、潤色成篇

在續(xù)寫的過程中我們要注意“續(xù)”的原則，做到主題、情節(jié)、語言風(fēng)格與原文保持一致。具體如下：

1. 通過分析，本文的主題是助人為樂，續(xù)寫時應(yīng)注意結(jié)局的設(shè)計;

2. 續(xù)寫的情節(jié)應(yīng)和前面的開始和發(fā)展吻合，根據(jù)人物的性格特點進(jìn)行合理的預(yù)測;

3. 續(xù)寫時應(yīng)盡量模仿并運用文章的語言風(fēng)格;

4. 續(xù)寫時注意句子長短相間，句型豐富，以及語法、用詞、標(biāo)點符號的準(zhǔn)確性。
