2020 年1月读后续写题型再次出现在浙江省高考英语科目写作第二节，该题型提供一段350词以内的语言材料，要求考生根据该材料内容、所给段落开头语和所标示关键词语进行续写（150词左右），将其发展成一篇与给定材料有逻辑衔接、情节和结构完整的短文。读后续写既考查学生对所学语言知识的运用能力，又考查学生的发散思维能力和创造力。该题型要求考生首先要读懂已有信息，不仅能读懂字面含义，还要理清文章的脉络和关系。续写短文时，考生需要明白故事的发展进程、前因后果、地理位置变化、人物特征和情感等。在此基础上，考生顺着文章的思路，根据线索，发挥想象，对其后的情节进行合理预测，并用英语表达出来。同时，在组织语言时，切记至少使用5个给出的提示词。下面是对本次高考读后续写试题的分析：

一、所给材料和题目要求

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

“Im going to miss you so much， Poppy，” said the tall， thin teenager. He bent down to hug his old friend goodbye. He stood up， hugged his parents， and smiled， trying not to let his emotions（情绪）get the better of him.

His parents were not quite able to keep theirs under control. They had driven their son several hours out of town to the university where he would soon be living and studying. It was time to say goodbye for now at least. The family hugged and smiled through misty eyes and then laughed.

The boy lifted the last bag onto his shoulder， and flashed a bright smile. “I guess this is it，” he said. “Ill see you back home in a month， okay？” His parents nodded， and they watched as he walked out of sight into the crowds of hundreds of students and parents. The boys mother turned to the dog， “Okay， Poppy， time to go back home.”

The house seemed quiet as a tomb without the boy living there. All that week， Poppy didnt seem interested in her dinner， her favorite toy， or even in her daily walk. Her owners were sad too， but they knew their son would be back to visit. Poppy didnt.

They offered the dog some of her favorite peanut butter treats. They even let her sit on the sofa， but the old girl just wasnt her usual cheerful self. Her owners started to get worried. “What should we do to cheer Poppy up？” asked Dad. “Weve tried everything.”

“I have an idea， but it might be a little crazy，” smiled Mom. “Without anybody left in the house but us， this place could use a bit of fun. Lets get a little dog for Poppy.”

It didnt take long before they walked through the front door carrying a big box. Poppy welcomed them home as usual， but when she saw the box， she stopped. She put her nose on it. Her tail began wagging（擺动）ever so slowly， then faster as she caught the smell.
