关于水中或雨中脱困脱险的读后续写练习写作Passage 1风雨中助人
I went up to the roof for a break after studying for an hour and watched the 50 or so people swimming in the natural rock pool below our house. It was a sunny daya blue, cloudless sky over a calm sea. But then, as I looked in the distance, I discovered three or four big waves heading towards the shore. I'd seen these minitsunamis(海啸) many times before. They were heading at speed in the direction of the pool. Most people knew how to look out for them, but from the screams that started ing from the beach, I could tell someone was in trouble. Without thinking, I ran down into the street, holding my body board(俯伏冲浪板) on the way and shouted at a stranger to go inside my house and call the coastguard. My neighbor Moises had heard the screaming as well and was also outside with his body board, so together we rushed to the steps that led down to the sea .Once we got closer, we discovered the waves had pulled a boy and a girl from the pool and into the open sea. I knew that the nearest boat would take at least 30 minutes to reach us. Waiting for help wasn't a choice. I wasn't used to this sort of emergencyI’d never been trained as a lifeguardbut I didn't think twice about trying to save them.
I supposed in a way I wanted to impress everyone: at 19, a deal like that can seem like a good opportunity to show off. Moises and I dived into the water and it took us 10 minutes to get to them. When we finally reached them, they were almost lifeless with only their heads ing in and out of the water. We could tell they were still alive from their small breaths but it was clear they wouldn't have been able to stay there much longer. I held the boy and pulled him over my board. Moises moved the girl onto his board. We discussed pushing them back to the shore, but we were too far out.

Paragraph
1:We had to wait.Paragraph
2:That night, word came from the hospital that the two people were in good condition.
We had to wait. We eagerly hoping for the arrival of the saving boat. The wild wind blew and the freezing sea water clapped our bodies continuously. 30 minutes seemed much longer as we just helplessly floated on the boundless sea. After a long time, a light spot appeared in the distance! We waved our hands and yelled out for help. The boat finally reached us and took all of us back to the shore. The two children were immediately sent to the nearest hospital.
That night, word came from the hospital that the two people were in good condition. Picturing what the merry scene would be, relief lay in my heart and happiness etched on my face. The next morning, all the people I met smiled to me and could not stop praising me. It seemed like a good opportunity to show myself off, but I didn’t mean to. In fact, I was ashamed I had thought about it. It occurred to me that helping others was priceless and everyone should be a lifeguard.
Passage 2 被困瀑布下
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。
续写的词数应为150左右。
David knew the waterfall was ing. It wasn't his first visit to the river in central California. He figured he would hop out of his raft into the shallow water, rappel down the rocks (沿岩壁下降)on either side of the fall, and continue on his way, as he had on a previous trip. But this year was different. Heavy snow and spring rains had turned the usually manageable falls into something fierce. And this year, instead of his friends, David's panions were his girlfriend, Sara, and his l3yearold son, Hunter. As the three of them approached the falls late in the afternoon of the third day of their camping trip, David could tell from the increasing roar of water in the narrowing valley that they were in serious trouble. There was no way they’d be able to rappel down the rocks as planned. They could wade (蹚水) to the shore, but would anyone find them there? They had no phone service, and they hadn't seen a single person in the past three days. And David knew they'd be sharing the ground there with snakes and mountain lions. As he wondered what to do, David hit on a bit of luck he heard voices ing from the other side of the fall. He yelled, but the sound of the rushing water drowned him out. We had to do get these people a message, David thought. He caught a branch and pulled out his pocketknife to carve
“Help" in it. Then h e tied a rope to it so the people would know it wasn't just any branch. He tried flying it over the falls, but it floated away in the wrong direction. Then he spotted his green water bottle David grabbed it and carved “Help!” on it Sara also reminded him t hat he had a pen and paper, which she'd brought to play games with, in his backpack. David knew it was just an attempt. But he wrote down“6 1519 we are stuck here at the waterfall. Get help please “and pushed the note into the bottle.
Paragraph 1: This time, his throw over the waterfall was perfect.
Paragraph 2: The next morning. they heard a helicopter hovering (盘旋) above them.
Paragraph1:“All right, that’s all we can do,” David told Sara. Then they went back to the beach where they’d had lunch. They mad e a fire and laid out a tarp. As the evening wore on, they placed a headlamp with a flashing light on a ledge. By about 10:30 p.m.,they decided they probably weren’t going to get rescued that night, so they pulled out their sleeping bags. Before sleeping, David added more wood to the fire to keep the mountain lions away. Then, just after midnight, David suddenly woke up because he dreamed that they heard a helicopter hovering above them and they heard the magic words: “This is Search and Rescue. You have be en found. “Unfortunately, looking around, he could see nothing but endless darkness. He then fell into sleep again.
Paragraph 2:David’s dream became true! The helicopter circled as the pilot looked for a good place to land. Finally the helicopter landed safely and it was a moment of pure happiness as the three chatted with the officers who had rescued them. When the officers dropped them back at the Finch Campground, the family learned more about the long shot events that had saved them: Some hikers had seen the water bottle in the water. When they picked it up, they noticed the writing on it —“Help!”. Then they realized there was a note inside. After they read it, they hightailed it to the campground, turned the bottle in. David is planning on having a big barbecue to meet the hikers — and thank them. “I imagine it’s going to be one of the greatest moments of my life.” he says.
【详解】前文主要讲述了David一家去野营,大雪和春雨把通常可以控制的瀑布变成了水流汹涌的瀑布,使得他们一家困在了山上,他们听到瀑布另一侧有人的声音,下决心
要把信息传递给这些人,最后他们在所携带的绿色水壶上刻下了“帮助”两个字,并用所带的纸笔写下了“ 6 1519我们被困在瀑布了。
请寻求帮助”,然后将纸条塞入瓶子。
根据给的第一段开头This time, his throw over the waterfall was perfect.(这次,他完美地将水壶扔过了瀑布。
),可知本段是续写水壶被扔过瀑布之后,David他们等待救援的过程。
第二段是以The next morning. they heard a helicopter hovering (盘旋) above them.(第二天早上。
他们听到一架直升机盘旋在他们上方。
)开头,由此可知他们最后获救了,所以这段重点写他们是如何被救以及被救之后的事情。
【点睛】续写范文语言地道,句型多变。
比如Then they go back to the beach where they’d had lunch.中使用了where引导的定语从句;he dreamed that they heard a helicopter hovering above them and they heard the magic words使用了that引导的宾语从句;The helicopter circled as the pilot looked for a good place to land.使用了as引导的状语从句。
Passage 3 水中救人
Brady was a recently retired search and rescue dog. He was not happy and missed his owner Al because Al had gone out on a rescue mission without him. Al’s nephew Steve took Brady along when he and his friend Zach went on a overnight hike. But suddenly Steve and Zach smelled something burning and they realized that lightning had set the woods on fire. Windblown flame had leaped from the top of one tree to another. The long dry summer had turned the forest into a tinderbox(火绒箱) and the thunderstorm wasn’t hel ping much. It had more wind and lightning than rain. Zach pulled Steve’s arm. “Let’s go! We can make it back to the river we crossed today.” Steve pulled Brady’s leash(皮带) and their heads down against the strong firewind, they hurried down the path they had followed earlier. The air was full of smoke,and pine branches broke from burning trees with a crisp sound. Steve kept his eyes on the route. All they had to do was to make it down to the river… Brady barked a sharp warning. Ahead of them lay a dense curtain of smoke across the path. They’d never make it through that. They would have to find another escape route. The dog was pulling at his leash trying to draw them away from the smoke. This was what Brady was trained to do, and yet Steve was uneasy. It seemed to him they were moving away from the river. Brady lifted his head and smelled the smoky wind. Suddenly, the dog ran away and
disappeared. The boys yelled and shouted for him,but he didn’t e back. They had no choice but to leave him behind. Heartsick, Steve and Zach went up aslope(斜坡). He couldn’t blame Brady for panicking and escaping. He himself wanted to run even though he didn’t have a clue which way. They hadn’t gone far when there was a familiar bark, and Brady came running toward him.
Paragraph1:
“Where’ve you been?” Steve cried._____________________________________________________________________ __
Paragraph 2:Brady led them back down the slope and into the trees._____________________________________________________________________ __

Paragraph 1:“Where’ve you been?” Steve cried.Brady stopped directly in front of him and started pushing him back toward the slope they’d just climbed. When Steve still didn’t get it, Brady grabbed the boy’s jeans and pulled harder. The message was clear, but Steve hesitated. Of course he remembered what his uncle had said about Brady saving his life, but that had been a long time ago. Was he still sharp enough to get them through this? Brady pulled again, urgently. “OK, big guy,” Steve decided.
Paragraph 2:Brady led them back down the slope and into the trees.Several times the big dog stopped to get his escape route. Often he changed direction. How long they’d walked Steve had no idea. He just held onto Brady’s leash with one hand and kept putting one foot in front of the other. He was almost numb when he heard the wonderful sound of rushing water. The river! With a yell the boys ran unsteadily forward until they jumped in cool, r unning water. “Brady, you did it!”
Passage 4 落水被救
“If mum finds out that I'm going to the beach, I'll be in big trouble.” I said to myself softly in a low voice. I went downstairs slowly and tried to walk casually into the kitchen. As I was
walking towards the back door, mum asked without looking up from her “dishwashing”, “Where are you going?” I answered back without hesitation,“ I am going to the garden to play.” After I got out of the kitchen, I breathed a sign of relief. My plan had worked out fine so far. I climbed the fence and jumped onto the muddy field next to my house and started running towards the bus stop at top speed. After half an hour I was at the beach scanning the crowd for my friends, Jimmy and Bobby. Two young men were racing in the canoes (独木舟). After a while, I saw them near a coconut tree. I ran towards them and got into my swimming trunk (游泳裤). For about an hour, we played volleyball happily. Suddenly, Bobby hit the ball too hard and the ball fell into the sea. Just as Bobby was going to pick up the ball, the tide came in and carried the ball further and further away from the shore. I wanted to show off my swimming skills so I declared to help get the ball for them. I dived into the water and started swimming at a steady pace. After swimming for about ten minutes, I became tired but when I saw that the ball was only a few feet away from me, I put in an extra burst of speed. However, just as I was going to get the ball, a very strong current swept the ball further away from me. At that moment, a string of weed (海草)tangled (缠绕) up with my feet and I could not swim properly. I struggled to keep afloat but it was no use. “ If I had listened to my parents, this would never have happened, “I thought silently.
Paragraph 1
Finally, after struggling for a minute or two, I still got pulled underwater.____________________________________________________________________ __________
Paragraph 2
When I woke up, I was in an empty room lying on a bed.___________________________________________________________________________ ___

Paragraph 1
Finally, after struggling for a minute or two, I still got putted underwater. I told myself I should never give up. Then I pulled the weed again with great efforts. The weed finally broke. I swam back to the surface to take a deep breath. I saw two young men in canoes, racing each other. I was exhausted and shouted for help. The two men saw me and raced towards me. By the time they reached me, I had been already unconscious.
Paragraph 2
When I woke up, I was in an empty room lying on a bed. It was not until a doctor came into the room that I realized that I was in a hospital. Jimmy and Bobby told me the two young men brought me to the shore and sent me to the hospital. After a few minutes, my parents with half angry and half worried faces walked in. My parents scolded me for running out of the house secretly but were also glad that I was not seriously injured. I will never forget that terrifying experience. Neither will I ever want to show off again.
Passage 5漂流瓶救人
Rescue in a Bottle Curtis Whitson had rafted down the Arroyo Seco, a river in central California, several times before. This year, Curtis Whitson knew the waterfall was ing. He figured he would get out of his raft into the shallow water, get down the rocks along ropes on either side of the falls, and continue on his way, as he had on a previous trip. But this year was different. Heavy snow and spring rains had turned the usually manageable falls into something fierce. And this year, instead of his friends, Whitson’s panions were his girlfriend, Krystal Ramirez, and his 13yearold son, Hunter. As the three of them approached the falls late in the afternoon of the third day of their camping trip, Whitson could tell from the increasing roar of water in the narrowing canyon(峡谷) that they were in serious trouble. There was no way they’d be able to get down the rocks as planned.“The water was just roaring through there with tremendous force,” recalls Whitson, 45. They had no smart phone service, and they hadn’t seen a single person in the past three days. And Whitson knew that they’d be sharing the ground there with rattlesnakes and mountain lions. As he was thinking what to do, Whitson hit on a bit of luckhe heard voices ing from the other side of the falls. He yelled, but the sound of the rushing water drowned him out. “We have to get these people a message,” Whitson
thought. He grabbed a stick and pulled out his pocketknife to carve “Help” in it. Then he tied a rope to it so the peopl e would know it wasn’t just any stick. He tried throwing it over the falls, but it floated away in the wrong direction. “We’ve got to do something!” Whitson yelled to his son. “Have we got anything else?” Then he spotted his water bottle. Whitson grabbed it and carved “Help!” on it. Ramirez also reminded him that he had a pen and paper in his backpack. Whitson knew it was a slim hope. But he wrote “615 19:00 we are stuck here@ the waterfall. Get help please” and pushed the note into the bottle. Th is time, his throw over the waterfall was perfect. “All right, that’s all we can do,” Whitson told Hunter.

参考范文:
It took 30 minutes to get back upstream to the beach where they’d had lunch. The night falling, they put up a tent and wolfed down a simplified dinner. Suddenly a low, buzzing sound appearing, Whiston raised his head glanced around and spotted a helicopter in the distance. Blood rushing to his face and heart palpitating fiercely, he leapt to his feet and yelled at the top of his voice. However, the sound of the helicopter drowned him out the helicopter hovered for a while and faded in the suffocating darkness. A tide of exhaustion and despair washed over him. Sensing the desperate gleam in Hunter's eyes, Whiston bent over to give him a tight embrace, forting that they would be safe.
The next morning the helicopter returned. At the sight of the black dot on the horizon, Whiston made a smoky fire. The heavy smoke curling upward slowly into the sky, he clasped his hands tightly, praying in the depth of his heart that it would work. The black dot grew larger and
larger against the orange sky, so was their hope of being rescued. After what seemed like centuries, the helicopter finally came to a halt over them and lowered a rescuer. Bubbling with overwhelming ecstasy, Hunter couldn't help bouncing ups and downs. They eventually made it to escape from the nightmare. During their pleasant chat, they learned it was exactly the message in the bottle that saved them.
Passage 6 水中逃生
The rain came down steady and hard. Jason Storie heard it but was not worried as he prepared for a day of caving with five friends in a remote spot 80 miles northwest of his home in Duncan, on Canada’s Vancouver Island.It was 6 a.m. on December 5, 2015. As a newer to the sport, Jason had gone caving only four times. This would be his toughest outing yet: a cave called Cascade. It was dangerous enough that the entrance was blocked by a locked metal door to keep the casual cavers out. About a mile long and 338 feet deep, Cascade was full of tums and barely passable tight squeezes.Jason was new among the group, with the least experience and, at 43, older by a decade or more. It was his friend Andrew Munoz, 33, who introduced him to the sport. Unlike Jason, Andrew was an expert cavera former caving guide, actually. They hiked a bit before ing to the door, which sat in the ground—you’d miss it if you weren’t looking for it. It was 10 a.m. With their way lighted by headlamps, they walked down a narrow passage studded with sharp rocks. The silence was broken by a dripdripdrip from above. Soon the drip turned into a light but steady flow, and they were wading in water up to their ankles, then to their shins. Two hours later, they approached one of the features that made the cave unique: a narrow passage not big enough to stand up in that led into a short, tight downhill. This had a name: Bastard’s Crawl. Four streams met he re, and indeed, the water was flowing more quickly. The sound of the water had turned into a roar. When they finally neared the top of the Crawl, there were barely four inches of air left between the water and the ceiling. not enough for them to keep their heads up to breathe. They came to terrifying realization that they were in danger!

The water kept rising, and there was no hope of rescue. The hours passed. Jason and Andrew didn’t dare to move for fear of slipping. They dozed off and then jerked themselves awake. Every once in a while, one of them turned on his headlamp to check the water level. An hour later, the water level went down enough that they could try an escape. Stiff from keeping in one position for 12 hours, they slowly unfolded their bodies. Jason screamed in pain, but he was determined not to let it stop him.
Slowly but steadily, the group made their way forward. Still, each time Jason moved a leg, he cried out. Over the next 90 minutes, they made their way toward the entrance, at times in chesthigh water. Now, in a passage that was high enough for them to walk upright, Jason saw something flicker in the distance. “Lights! I see lights!” Jason shouted out. For the first time since entering the cave, over 20 hours earlier, Jason’s emotions got the best of him and tears trickled down his cheeks.
Passage 7水中遇险
“It’s not looking too good, darling. I think you’d better pack a few things and go to your mother’s place. And you’d better take Rosie and Monty with you.”Putting down the phone, Sara sighed. Tomorrow was her husband Tony’s birthday. She had planned to cook him a nice meal and then surprise him with the new mountain bike she’d bought for him. If she went to her mother’s house, Tony wouldn’t get his present for days.However, her mother’s house was the best place to be right now. Being on higher land, it would be safe from the floods. It had been raining heavily for almost two weeks and the river near Sara and Tony’s house was rising higher and higher all the time. Tony and others from the village had spent the last two days putting sandbags along the side of the river to stop it overflowing. Now they feared that their
hard work had been useless and soon the whole valley would be flooded. Sara dressed baby James in warm clothes and collected the things she would need for him over the next few days. She put the lead on the dog, Rosie. Just as she was reaching for the car keys, Sara heard a sound like the noise bath water makes when you pull out the plug. She looked at the back door. Water was flowing in underneath. Turning around she saw dirty brown water fountaining out of the drain and filling the sink. Quickly she put James into her backpack and pulled it onto her back. Calling to Rosie, she picked up the cat basket and ran to the front of the house and out into the front garden.The water was already up to her knees. Rosie was swimming beside her. Knowing the water would soon be much deeper, Sara ran to the car and opened the doors. She threw the cat basket onto the roof of the car and pushed Rosie up beside it. Using the car seat as a step she climbed first onto the front of the car and then onto the roof. James, safely attached to her back, made no sound at all. Sara stared down at the water which was rushing past the car. It was already half way up the doors, and still rising. 注意:

With the water still pouring, Sara began to feel cold. And fear slowly creeps upon her. She looked around, nervous and hopeless, trying to find someplace where she could shelter. Finally, she saw a spot which was higher. In order to keep warm, she held James tightly, with Rosie sitting beside her. There was no one around and it seemed that the whole village had bee a large lake. Sara could do nothing but wait for help.
Suddenly, Rosie began to bark, and some noise came from far away. Sara stood up quickly and looked through the direction of the noise. There was light and a boat was ing. Feeling wild with joy, Sara shouted towards them. It turned out to be Tony and others from the village. They told Sara that they were also trapped until soldiers came to help. Sara looked at Tony with relief. She said with a smile, “I’m sorry your birthday present is now under the water. But I guess this will be the most unforgettable birthday for y ou.”
Passage 8 水中救娃
Lungs nearly bursting, I struggled to lift my head out of the water. Inch by inch, my tired body reached for the end of the pool. The extent of my swimming career was purely recreational, while the petitive swimmers nearby thought nothing of the seemingly simple task of a 500meter swim test. Pushing myself to finish what I had started, I could only think: why not take the easy way out? Earlier that week, I had turned in my first job application at a local pool. Overqualified, I was hired on the spot. However, the tasks were boring: helping confused visitors and measuring the height of children before they went down the slide, those sorts of things. I was capable of more. So a swim test was required, establishing the mere fact that I was not pletely helpless in a pool. Midway through, the manager administering the test remarked, “This looks really easy for you. Why aren’t you applying to bee a guard?”“The thought hadn't crossed my mind. ”“Well, lifeguarding demands more responsibility, strength and respect. Thus the position pays $2 more per hour. Your swimming skills are strong enough. All you need to do is plete a certification class. ”Inside I was unsure of myself, but his words inspired meYou never know what you are capable of until you force yourself to do it.Soon I passed the swim test. All left was to practice and learn first aid, CPR(心肺复苏),and procedures for different land and waterbased emergencies. Work started soon. A wellintentioned yet anxious feeling in me soon passed. Days, weeks, and months went by without incident; emergencies were rare. The skills and training I had so carefully studied and acquired seemed unnecessary. Today appeared to be another uneventful day. However, shortly after the other guards signaled to the children to exit the pool, I noticed one boy was still in the middle while the others had climbed up.

“Something must have gone wrong with him,” I thought to myself.Sure enough, with a closer look, I found the boy waving his hands desperately. I quickly dived into the water, swimming towards the boy at full speed. By the time I reached him, he had sunk to the bottom of the pool, his head hanging down, which filled my heart with fright and concern. I picked the boy up and headed to the poolside, keeping his head above the water.
Having the boy on the floor, I put my ear to his mouth and my fingers at his neck. I could tell he had no heartbe at and wasn’t breathing. Every second counted! Without hesitation, I did first aid, giving him mouthtomouth breathing and doing CPR as trained. Other guards watching anxiously, I carried on, sweating. Suddenly, a stream of water burst out of his mouth and the boy coughed intensely. Seeing the boy regain consciousness, those around broke into cheers. Exhausted, I sighed with relief. I thought had I accepted that easy position, I would have been nothing but a bystander. I’m happy I didn’t take the easy way ou t.

It was a rainy November morning. Overe with anger I knew if I didn’t leave the house soon I would lose my temper with my husband, Joe. As rain came down in sheets, Joe offered to take me to work. I struggled into my jacket, seized my bag and teaching plans and ignored him.He insisted and reached for his boots. I looked at the piles of newspapers and the dirty dishes still on the table. “Don’t you have enough to do? I can take care of myself” I stormed out, not even
kissing him goodbye. Joe shouted after me not to take the shortcut (捷径).Joe and I had been eagerly looking forward to our retirement when a heart attack that past spring forced him to leave his job earlier than we had planned. As the medical bills mounted we realized I would have to continue working fulltime while Joe stayed home and took over the housework.The new arrangement was a disaster. Exhausted after a day of full work, all I wanted was a hot home cooked meal and a good night’s sleep. However, what greeted me at the table was a microwave package. Sometimes he would serve oatmeal (燕麦)for several nights in a row. One night when I dragged myself to bed, I was terrified to discover Joe had turned our white sheets blue. He told me he had found out how to save on water, soap and electricity. He patted his blue trousers and announced proudly washing everything together was just the secret. Ten minutes later, ignoring Joes warning I turned off the main route. I thought it hadn’t rained enough t o flood the road, but as I rounded the corner water rushed across my path. After a few feet, the car got stuck. I opened the door and water poured in. I hurriedly closed the door. I couldn’t risk walking in this. Almost 20 minutes passed. The car began to shake. I got frightened to death when I heard three long honks (喇叭声).
