His painting Impression: Sunrise inspired a newspaper critic Louis Leroy to call all of the artists in the group “impressionists,” and the name stuck.Monet gradually gained critical and financial success during the late 1880s and the 1890s. This was due to the efforts
66、of Durand-Ruel, who sponsored one-man exhibitions of Monets work.During the 1890s he devoted his energy to paintings of haystacks.

Ever since the Levis factory closed, hed been unemployed, and with winter approaching, the chill had finally hit home.Suddenly, he saw an old l
125、ady, whose car broke down on the side of the road. Even in the dim light of the night, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her car and got off.Despite the smile on his face, the old lady was worried. Was he going to hurt her? He looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was
126、 frightened,” I m here to help you, maam. Why dont you wait in the car where its warm? By the way, my name is Joe Anderson.”Well, all she had was only a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough, Joe crawled under the car. Half an hour later, he finished changing the tire. But he got dirty
127、 and his hands hurt. She could not thank him enough and asked him how much money she owed him. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give the person the assistance he needed. He waited until she started her car and drove off.
128、Then he left.A few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe. She went in to grab a bite to eat and take the chill off. The waitress noticed the ladys wet hair and brought a clean towel to wipe it. She had a sweet smile,one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldnt erase. The lady no
129、ticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant. She was curious and asked,Its too late and freezing cold. As a mother-to-be, why dont you go home early?”“My husband is out of job, so I want to share the burden of supporting the family with him. Besides,I also want to help the people in need at
130、night.” The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger.注意:1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;2.至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语;3. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;4. 续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。Paragraph 1:Then, she remembered Joe and determined to spread the chain of love._Paragraph 2:Deeply moved, the wai

133、nd.Paragraph 2: Deeply moved, the waitress was eager to tell her husband Joe what had happened. Shortly after she had a warm bath, she climbed into bed, pouring out everything about the night - the lady, the money and the note. With the baby due next month, it was indeed going to be hard for the cou
134、ple. The money came as a relief to them. She gave her husband a soft kiss and whispered, “Everything is going to be all right. I love you, Joe.”【解析】【分析】这是一篇读后续写作文。【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知,Joe在开车回家路上帮助了一个车抛锚了的老妇人,修好了车后妇女离开了。沿路走了几英里,这位女士看到了一家小咖啡馆。一位怀孕了的女服务员好心给她拿来毛巾擦头发,妇人问她为什么这么晚还在工作,女服务员说因为丈夫失业了,自己想和他一起分担养家的重担。
135、此外,也想帮助那些在晚上需要帮助的人。老太太很奇怪,一个一无所有的人怎么能对一个陌生人如此慷慨。续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:然后,她想起了Joe,决定传播爱的链条。所以后文应该是讲述老妇人是如何帮助这个女服务员的。当女服务员出去找零钱时,老太太在餐巾纸上写了几句话,然后溜出了门。女服务员回来后注意到了。餐巾纸下面还有四张100美元的钞票。原来那位女士希望她接受这笔钱,因为刚才有一个陌生人帮助了她,所以她想帮助别人,目的是不让这条爱之链结束。第二段开头是:女服务员深受感动,急于告诉她的丈夫Joe所发生的事情。本段应该写女服务员告诉了Joe当晚发生的事情,孩子下个月就要出生了,这对夫妇的日子确
136、实很难过。那笔钱使他们松了一口气。续写时要求使用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,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。按要求完成写作任务。【点睛】本文描写详略得当,使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如:turn out, help out, with the purpose of, pour out等高级词汇;She was about to pay the bill when a good idea struck her.运用了sb. be about to do when句型;Shortly after she had a warm bath, she climbed into bed, pouring out everything about the night - the lady, the money and the note.运用了时间状语从句等高级句式。
