一、题文
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． I stood under the mistletoe（榭寄生）． The green， leafy clusters（团，簇）spotted with waxy-white berries hung from the branches of every apple tree． That"s the same stuff they sell in the stores for Christmas decorations， I said to myself． Why can"t I sell mistletoe too？ It would be a perfect way to earn money to buy a Christmas gift for my brother， Derek． I took a few steps back， ran， leaped， and reached as high as I could． But the lowest mistletoe cluster was too high． Frustrated， I had started for home， when something strange caught my eye． At the edge of the apple orchard（果园）， one tree stood bare． All the mistletoe had fallen off the branches． Delighted， I carefully picked out the best clusters and put them in my lunch box． When it was full， I rushed across the cornfield to go home． I entered the side door， listening． Yes， a guitar was playing． I pounded on the door． The guitar stopped． A moment later the door was open． My brother stood there wearing his brown leather jacket． "Where are you going？" I asked． "None of your business，" he muttered， sailing past me． It wasn"t easy sharing that small bedroom with my older brother． With Derek out of the room， I emptied the contents of my lunch box onto my bed． As I looked for something to put the mistletoe in， I saw Derek"s guitar on his bed， wrapped in an old towel． That guitar was the only beautiful thing Derek owned， and I knew what to buy with the mistletoe money： a case for that guitar． Even if Derek was bad-tempered sometimes， he was still my brother， and I loved him． Obviously I needed more mistletoe． The next day， I cut through the apple orchard again． A surprise awaited me-two more trees were bare， and more mistletoe! I came across the orchard owner who said he paid a guy to cut all that mistletoe out of his apple trees． He was happy I collected the mistletoe． As I raced for home， I saw Derek， in his leather jacket， was crossing the cornfield． But he ignored me． That night I picked more mistletoe． With all mistletoe sold out， I hurried over to the music store． In the front display window lay a row of wooden recorders． I had learned to play a plastic one at school， andI wanted one of those wooden ones． Each year that was at the top of my Christmas list． But each yearthere wasn"t enough money．注意：1．所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右；2．应使用至少 5 个以上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： I was calculating how much more money I"d need to buy a recorder when I saw the towers of guitar cases in the back of the store．Paragraph 2： I reached the orchard again， overhearing a familiar voice talking with the orchard owner．
二、解答
Possible version：I was calculating how much more money I"d need to buy a recorder when I saw the towers of guitar cases in the back of the store．As much as I wanted a recorder， I wanted to buy Derek a guitar casemore． Even if he had been annoying lately， he was a pretty neat brother． Going inside the store， I found the perfect case for Derek， a brown one with gold buttons．【高分句型一】 It cost a lot， though． Much more than I had． I hoped that there would be lots more mistletoein the orchard when I got there．（想给德里克买一个吉他盒，但是价格太高．）I reached the orchard again， overhearing a familiar voice talking with the orchard owner．【高分句型二】 It was Derek on the branches! He didn"t see me in the shadows． "So what are you doing with all the money I"m paying you？ Are you going out and having a good time？" asked the owner． "No，" said Derek， getting off the apple tree， "I"m saving up to buy my kid brother something for Christmas． He"s been wanting a wooden recorder for ages． He can play pretty well． And you know how it is-he"s my brother．"（哥哥想给弟弟买录音机）三、分析
高分句型1．Going inside the store， I found the perfect case for Derek， a brown one with gold buttons．句子里，现在分词Going inside the store做时间状语． the perfect case for Derek，和 a brown one with gold buttons是同位语关系．走进店里，我找到了给德里克的完美箱子，一个棕色的，有金纽扣的箱子．2．I reached the orchard again， overhearing a familiar voice talking with the orchard owner．句子里， 现在分词overhearing a familiar voice talking with the orchard owner做伴随状语．我又到了果园，无意中听到一个熟悉的声音在和果园老板说话．本文到此结束，希望对大家有所帮助。
