溺水女孩获救

李全忠

在一个坐立不安的上午，本文的主人公决定出去散步，走向了一条他从未走过的街道……

1 Id been restless all morning， feeling uncomfortable and not able to put my finger on why. Everything seemed all right. I had a wonderful breakfast with my mother. Then I was sitting on the sofa holding the front page of the newspaper， but not really reading it. Something was wrong， but I didnt know what it was.

2 My mother didnt seem to notice my distraction （分心）. She busied herself making a new quilt （被子）. I sat and stared at the backyard through the door， trying to figure out what was bothering me. I needed to be somewhere. I didnt know where I should go， but I knew it wasnt here inside the house. I headed for the front door and my hand automatically went to my pocket for my car keys. But then something told me I wasnt going to be driving anywhere. I needed to go for a walk.

3 I stepped out onto the porch （门廊）， wondering where I was supposed to go. Apparently， my legs had an idea because I found myself starting off on one of my normal morning walks. This time， however， I turned north after going one block and walked up a street where Id never taken a walk before.

4 Feeling uncomfortable， I began to hear two female voices， and one of them was crying sharply. A voice in my head said “Hurry” and I found myself running towards the sound. I ran up to a house. Two women stood in front of the house. One of them was dressed in swimwear and she was the one crying.

5 “My baby！” she shouted， staring down at a little girl lying still on the green grass. “My babys dead！” The other woman stood there next to her， holding her hand. She saw me approaching and said， “They were swimming in the backyard. I think her daughters drowned.”

3. 她18岁上大学， 四年之后，毕业时名列前茅。 （使用非谓语作状语）

4.汤姆不喜欢他爸爸买给他的生日礼物。（使用定语从句）

三、續写技能

（一）落实“细微处”描写

在描写人物时，一定要突出细节，细微处最能体现情感，所以尽量不用笼统的词，如smile、cry等，而用相关的描写细节的词汇或词组，如：

1. Lily smiled happily.

2. Lily wore a shining smile on her face.

分析：第1句中的smile是一个笼统的描述微笑的词汇，而第2句中使用了wore a shining smile，用词组的形式突出细节，展示了细微的“微笑”。

（二）体现“多样性”结构

在进行人物描写时，尽量避免平铺直叙，可以多采用如非谓语动词的形式，表现谓语动作的伴随状态，从而使描写到位，并体现语法结构的多样性。如：

1. Her eyes were filled with tears， and she offered her sincere thanks to the man.

2. Tears filling her eyes， she offered her sincere thanks to the man.

分析：第1句在描写“哭泣”时，用到了Her eyes were filled with tears。而第2句则把这句改成了独立主格结构Tears filling her eyes，使描写更细致、生动，同时也体现了句式的多样化，展示了高超的语言运用能力。

（三）展示“丰富化”修辞

除了选择细致的描写词汇和多样化的句式表达外，提升语言层次的另外一种方式是多使用修辞方法，如：

1. The smile on her face shone like a diamond.

2. I feel like I am floating in an ocean of sadness.

分析：第1句把“微笑”比喻成“像钻石一样闪闪发光”； 而第2句把“悲伤”比喻成“漂浮在悲伤的海洋里”，展示了用修辞来体现丰富的细节描写。

四、续写布局

根据续写第一段段首句的内容可知，续写第一段可描写“我”对孩子施救的过程。具体内容我们可根据以下问题链来展开：

1. What occurred to me？

2. What did I do next？

3. How did the woman feel？

根据续写第二段段首句的内容可知，第二段可描写“我”施救的结果。具体内容我们可根据以下问题链来展开：

1. What happened to the girl after I performed CPR？

2. How did the girl feel？

3. How did the woman feel？

4. What did I do at last？
