新高考对于师生来讲都是新形势，在新高考的英语考试中，“读后续写”是新题型，也是重点题型，考查学生的综合语言运用能力。既有阅读，又有写作。首先要求是要读懂所给材料，然后根据材料进行续写，所以“续写”是读和写的统一，考查学生的阅读能力、总结概括能力，语言组织能力，需要大量练习。如何做好“读后续写”这种题型，拿得高分，这其中有一定技巧。教师在教学中，也应把此类题型值得深入探究，掌握规律，进行教学引导。

一、读后续写的具体要求

读后续写，一般是提供一段350词以内的语言材料，要求学生依据该材料内容、所给段落开头语或所标示关键词进行续写，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，续写单词在150 词左右。

二、读后续写中学生常出现的问题

首先会出现上下文的连贯性差的问题，段落与段落之间没有衔接; 错词错句多，单词应用错误，出现句子语法错误，好词好句少; 没有丰富和生动的细节推动情节的发展;与所给短文及段落开头语的衔接程度差;没有猜到主旨，对材料阅读不细致、不理解，过度想象或偏离主题。 还有的就是书写潦草，卷面涂改。

三、如何做好读后续写

我们举例来说明。

1.阅读下面短文，根据所给情節进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

On Christmas Eve， seventy-three-year-old George selected his food carefully. Skim milk was $2.99 white bread，89 cents with a 10cent discount Leaving the cashier， he calculated that he had saved 80 cents today. At the exit， the wind reminded him of his gloves.“Where are they？”Not in the coat pockets. Not in the grocery bag either. He was sure he was wearing them when he entered the store. He clearly remembered putting them into the pocket of this coat. George made a second thorough search of all his pockets， again including the grocery bag. Now he was sure they must have been dropped somewhere inside the store. Old George had bought the black leather gloves at a 25% discount， for just $35.00， ten years ago. They were soft and warm and very durable. He had taken care not to let a drop of water or rain touch his expensive gloves， so they looked like new. Losing this favorite possession was almost like losing a child to him.

George，calm on the outside but nervous inside， reentered the store. He followed the same route he had walked before， starting at the bread counter， to the milk section， the corner where salt and sugar were placed， then the rest of the store. Several minutes of anxious searching turned out to be in vain. He asked the customers whether they saw a pair of black leather gloves， but they said no. Then he went over to the cashier without hesitation to ask if she had received any lost gloves， but only received the same answer. His heart grew heavier.“Society has changed，people have changed”， he murmured to himself.“Years ago，if somebody picked up something lost， they would give it back. Now a good action is lost.”

Yet he did not give up hope. He started to stare at anybody wearing black gloves to see if they looked like his. The first two persons he saw did wear gloves，but one was women's and the other not black.

Paragraph 1：

Suddenly， he found a man looking like a lawyer， wearing black leather gloves.

Paragraph 2：

During the whole holiday， he was always thinking whether to buy a new one.
