55、二节 （满分25分）阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。Many years ago, there was a king who often thought, “Nothing good can come to a nation whose people only complain(抱怨) and expect others to solve their problems.” One day, he had an idea. Early one morning, the king disguised(伪装) himself and went to a lo
56、cal village. He placed a large stone in the middle of the main street and put a diamond under the stone .Then he hid behind a huge tree and watched.The first person down the street was a milkman with his cart.

He had been working all day and was very tired. But when he saw the stone, he said to himself, “This stone
61、is a danger to anyone who comes down the street after dark. Ill move it out of the way.” The boy pushed the stone with all his might. After a great deal of effort, he finally succeeded in moving it to the side of the street. Imagine his surprise when he saw the diamond where the stone had been!Just
62、then, the king stepped out from behind the tree. “Oh sir,” the boy said, “does this diamond belong to you? If not, we surely must find the owner, for he will certainly miss it.” The king said, “My dear, the diamond is mine. I put it in the road and moved the stone over it. Now the diamond is yours,
63、because you are the only person who has learnt the lesson I wanted to teach my people.”【详解】文章讲述了一个国王想通过一个测试了解他的臣民是否只是抱怨，指望别人来解决他们的问题。而非自己动手解决问题。续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：就在这时，国王看到一个小男孩走过来。所以后文应该是描写这个男孩搬开挡在路上的石头。并且惊讶的发现了一颗国王放在那边的钻石。第二段开头是：就在这时，国王从树后走了出来。所以后文应该描写男孩本想和国王一起找到丢失钻石的主人。但国王告诉了真相并且将钻石送给他。续写时注意本篇的基础时态为
64、一般过去时，内容应符合逻辑。要求使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语增加了写作难度，我们要熟悉所给划线词语，恰当的时候加以运用。最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右；续写完成后，用下划线标出所使用的关键词语。按要求完成写作任务。【点睛】文章思路清晰，语言规范，段落整齐，语篇连贯，层次清晰。使用了较为高级的句式：如：定语从句：This stone is a danger to anyone who comes down the street after dark.；原因状语从句：Now the diamond is yours, because you are the only person who has learnt the lesson I wanted to teach my people等。高级句式的应用提升了写作的档次，整个短文显示出了作者高水平的英语表达能力。
