情绪的英文高分描写技巧
一、题型介绍

读后续写是一种将阅读与写作紧密结合的综合性语言测试。教育部考试中心刘庆思、陈康老师于 2016 年指出，读后续写主要关注学生以下四个方面的能力：
①把握短文关键信息和语言特点的能力。学生需要了解所给短文的主要内容，清楚其关键词和语言结构的使用情况，并通过续写短文表现出来。
②语言运用的准确性和丰富性。学生能准确、恰当地使用所学词汇和语言结构，还能够根据内容需要使用较多、较复杂的词汇和语言结构。
③对语篇结构的把控能力。学生需要掌握上下文逻辑关系，所续写的短文与所给短文及段落开头语之间要有连贯性，所续写的短文内语句要连贯、有序。
④创造性思维能力。学生所续写的短文要具有较丰富的内容，包含详细和生动的情景、态度和感情描述。

七、备考策略
写给教师的话
教师应关注学生读后续写作品的三个维度：即语言、内容和规范。
同时，更应关注统领以上三个维度的“制高点”，即思维，因为思维蕴藏在整个作品中，涉及内容的选择、逻辑的顺畅、语用的考量等。因此，在日常教学中，教师要创造机会，提供平台，使学生们释放他们的创造力和想象力，激发他们的表达动机。
写给学生的话
在日常英语学习中，学生应注意积累记叙文和故事类篇章中的词汇、句型和语段，尤其是涉及故事细节描写和人物的表情、动作、心理活动等的表达，丰富自己的记叙文类英文语料库。
“读书破万卷，下笔如有神”，考试中写出地道的英语句子，一定可以帮助学生提高得分。
另外，学生还可以利用平日所读记叙文和故事类篇章，如教材中的课文、课外读物以及阅读理解或完形填空中的语篇等有意识地进行续写思维训练。
如平时读到这类语篇时，阅读中可暂短停顿，根据已读部分文章的脉络，对文章进行发散思维，设想可能的几种文章结尾；或也可根据某一段落的首句提示，结合上文对该段进行合理设想，推断该段可能要讲述的内容等。
