57、 my father is the person I respect most.My father is a teacher who loves his work and his students very much.

60、 dirty and we dont want to close to them. Its not right. They clean our environment by their hard work.读后续写【参考范文】He chased after the truck. By coincidence, the traffic light in the nearest crossing turned red when the truck was on the point of going through it. The truck having to stop, Harry manage
61、d to get close to it and reached the black recycling box. Having held the most expensive newspaper tightly under his arms, he got into a taxi immediately, not noticing a thin piece of glass drop. However, Jenny witnessed what had happened. Driven by curiosity, she picked up the piece of glass and re
62、membered the photo of the blue vase, with her mouth wide open.Then Janey called the police on the phone. She informed the police of where the taxi was heading and the doubtful piece of glass she had just found. “Its exactly from the broken vase in the art gallery, I bet.” The policemen set off in no
63、 time. After thirty minutes or so, Harry, the hateful thief was caught when hiding the precious painting in a hut. Eventually, the painting was returned to the art gallery and Harry was punished for his greed.【思路点拨】1. 首先理解清楚整篇文章：Harry是一名盗窃艺术品的小偷，一天凌晨他偷了一家画廊的非常昂贵的一幅画，在离开的时候不小心打碎了一个玻璃花瓶。回到租住的地方，Harry把
64、画卷在一张旧报纸里，然后把旧报纸放在了床下；Janey Allen是Harry 的房东，每天为Harry打扫房间，并把报纸瓶子等送到垃圾回收的地方，这天Janey正在收拾房间时，新闻里正在播放画廊失窃案，她在电视上看到了蓝色花瓶的照片。她在Harry的床下看到旧报纸，就按照以往的习惯送到垃圾回收的地方，Harry当时正在打电话，没有注意到这些事，等Harry看到垃圾回收车，看到Janey时，马上意识到发生了什么，他追了过去。2. 续写思路：读后续写的两段的首句是每一段的方向提示，第二个首句也暗示了第一段续写的结尾，在这篇文章中，第一段的首句为He chased after the truck.
65、Harry追上了垃圾回收车，拿回了报纸。第二段的首句为Then Janey called the police on the telephone.那么Janey为什么打电话报警呢？她发现了什么？文本中提到Janey glanced at the photo of the blue vase. 所以第一段中还要提及，Harry在偷画时打碎的花瓶碎片被Janey发现了，而Harry自己本人却没有注意到。第二段描述事情最后的结果，本着扬善惩恶的主题，Harry被逮到，画被归还给了画廊，Harry也为自己的行为付出代价。3. 第一段续写：Harry追上卡车，取回报纸，但是在这个过程中，一小块玻璃碎片出卖了他，被房东发现。第二段续写，房东给打电话报警，Harry被捉到，画还给画廊，Harry收到惩罚。文本中划线的单词，the photo of the blue vase, the piece of glass, newspaper, painting, the truck都是续写中必需的单词。4. 整体用一般过去时，注意非谓语动词和各类从句的使用。
